An almost full house in Fafe where most of the people were supporting CBP/Sentir Penafiel. It was the Yellow&Black team who started better, with a 12-4 partial in the first five minutes. But after a time out called by Joao Freitas, the Madeira team finally entered in the game, recovering until Antonio Monteiro scored a fantastic triple and closed the first quarter with CBP/Sentir Penafiel leading 15-10. CB CBP/Sentir Penafiel continued to be stronger in the beginning of the second quarter, with Jeremy Goode directing the game and Manolo Povea being able to rotate his team. But the madeirenses kept struggling, showing a good defense and using the experience of their taller players. The game was getting exciting, with great plays by Londrick Nolen in the paint, and Nathan Menefee and Jaime Silva showing good shooting success outside. At half-time, CBP/Sentir Penafiel lead by 29-25, in a game very short in points, but with an interesting balance between two teams of equal value. Third quarter started with both teams continuing to do a hard job to stay in the scoreboard fight. CAB Madeira went nearer, but CBP/Sentir Penafiel was great keeping their options. Both teams showed to be tired, playing their third game in few days, and it was getting more important to see if Jeremy Goode or Nathan Menefee had some explosiveness stored to the end of the game. Instead, it was Jaime Silva who showed up and with a triple shot, put CAB ahead with just 16 seconds to play in this quarter, ending up 44-41 to the madeirenses. In the last quarter, we continued to see no team getting much ahead, but CBP/Sentir Penafiel recovered the lead with 5:30 minutes to play, while Nolen was in the line. As CBP/Sentir Penafiel was showing to be a lot better rebounding, it was giving them the chance to respond to the CAB outside strengths. CBP/Sentir Penafiel lead didnt last longer, as Menefee scored a triple to put CAB in front. But the balanced game kept the scoreboard going from one side to another. Entering the last minute, Fred Gentry failed a free throw, but CAB got the rebound and Jaime Silva scored a triple, putting his team with a 4 point lead. The game kept the same rhythm until the end, with CBP/Sentir Penafiel having good chances to make it to overtime, but CAB was strong in the foul line, keeping the lead until the end. CAB Madeira gets his first Portuguese Cup, in an emotional final, where CBP/Sentir Penafiel valorized her opponents win. Andrais Thornton (203-C-85, college: NW Missouri St.) (19 points, 10 rebounds) was the MVP, with Jeremy Goode (14 points, 3 assists) having a good game. In the winners, Jaime Silva (19 points, 5 assists), Nathan Menefee (19 points, 6 assists) and Fred Gentry (14 points, 8 rebounds) were the top contributors.
