Eighth-ranked KTP-Basket (9-16) was very close to win a game against first ranked Joensuun Kataja (20-4) on Wednesday. Joensuun Kataja managed to secure only two-point victory 72-70. However their fans expected much easier game. The hosts took control from the first minutes by winning first half. But KTP-Basket won third quarter 21-14. However it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. The game was decided in the last minutes when Joensuun Kataja won last quarter 13-13.
