Ruzomberok came with too many needles fouls but in the last frame they managed to erase the deficit and found themselves 57-56 ahead with 7 minutes to go. Natalia Vieru (197-C-89) and Katarina Tetemondova (188-F/C-88) were forced to leave the court 6 minutes before the buzzer due to foul trouble. Good Angels could relied on Danielle McCray (180-G/F-87, college: Kansas) who led them in offence as well as in defence. After a hard fought encounter the hosts won by 10 points.
