Hubalek, from the Sardinian team, contributes with his quality from mid range to the substantial draw. At the end of the first half the teams are tied again, leaving the challenge open in the second half of the game. Captain Braidot’s team holds its own in the third quarter and, thanks to the excellent defensive organization, does not concede easy points to the Sardinian team. Hubalek, however, continues to be a problem for the Gorizia team, managing to score in every way and managing to score 18 points on the scoreboard at the end of the third quarter.
During the third half of the game Sennori made too many mistakes: scores at the start of the fourth quarter 52 to 48 for Dinamo Gorizia. The home team manages to extend the lead significantly, thanks to an excellent feint, and a subsequent easy layup by Braidot around the seventh minute extends the lead to 57 to 48.
