The second half started with a triple by Marko Marinovic (183-PG-83) and Levski was again ahead. The third quarter was equal to the very end, when bad behavior on the bench of hosts allowed Levski to score consecutive free throws and they grabbed an advance of 70-62 after 30 minutes.
Levski kept the advance to the last 3 minutes when Lukoil got back in the game and even took a point lead minute and a half before the final whistle. Mladen Pantic followed with important basket after a beautiful combination. In the remaining moments Levski were able to protect their basket and did not allow any basket which practically meant only one thing - win for Levski and 1-0 in the series in their favor.
Marko Marinovic scored most for the winners - 18 points, 17 had Nemanja Protic and Dimitar Angelov added 12.
