The game in Villa Nueva supposed to be also worth to mention about. One of their biggest challengers Forza (5-7) played at the court of fifth ranked Villa Nueva (5-6).

The former international Ronal Campos (-1987) had a double-double by scoring 19 points and 21 rebounds to lead the charge for the winners and Sergio Ambelis chipped in 23 points and 4 assists during the contest.
