Flamengo's first points didn't take long, with Deodato and Balbi for two each. The Argentine was the one who turned the score in favor of Rubro-Negro for the first time, with a basket and a free kick, hitting the bonus free throw (7-6), but the first period ended with the French team ahead (9- 13).

It was again with Balbi that Mais Querido got on the scoreboard again (13-13), in a beautiful counterattack that excited the Nation that filled the stands. The match remained balanced until Franca opened a seven-point lead (16-21), just over three minutes before the break. With 1:24 left in the quarter, Devon Scott, from the free throw line, left Mengão just one point away (22-23), but Lucas Dias made a shot from the perimeter seconds before the clock went off: 22 to 26.

Franca continued to take advantage in the third quarter, with greater use than the Gávea team, which did not find itself shooting from the perimeter throughout the match. The distance between the teams increased and Flamengo was unable to recover in time to turn the score around.
