The match was originally supposed to be played in Nymburk, but the Czech champion lent his hall to the Ukrainian team Prometey, to play the Champions League match with Kluží, so the organization was exchanged with USK. Nymburk went into the match, saying that in the last ten days he had the only proper training in full composition.
However, Captain Vojtěch Hruban brought the form from the national team and the start of the match belonged mainly to Harding, who already had 16 points in the first quarter. Nymburk built a lead of 11 points, but lost it by half time. On the USK side, the West and especially the Mangas shot down, and thanks to them, the Prague team leveled at 45:45.
