After a spectacular presentation of the Second Military Region Mexican Army War Band, a spectacular show of lights and gas effects followed, the referee took the kick-off. Throughout the first period, people kept cheering for the home team, despite the fact that the Monterrey team scored an advantage of up to nine points, which it maintained during the first and second periods.
For the second half, it seemed that Soles could catch up, when after a series of triples, it got six points away, however, several errors in the speed starts cost them the game, for that reason, at the end of the third period, Fuerza Regia went to time up with 14 points ahead. At the same time, the crowd’s enthusiasm declined, and many decided to leave the auditorium during the last quarter.
