The game
The first quarter started off with a crushing result for Mengão. In less than three minutes, the score was already 10-0 in favor of FlaBasquete, but as the period progressed, the opponent pulled back, leaving the score at 21-15. In the second quarter, the deficit was as low as three points, but the red-and-black team adjusted its defense and went into halftime leading 46-30.
With four three-pointers as their calling card in the third quarter, the Pride of the Nation quickly extended their lead to 28 points—and opened up a 12-0 lead in the fourth. Far superior, Flamengo finished the period with 23 points, allowing only eight from Pato. The final quarter was even, in a quarter in which the team was already on the verge of victory.
