The best of the Bahia team were Franco Pennacchiotti (20 points and 13 rebounds) and Jano Martínez (12 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists).

For the locals, shooting guard Lorenzo Capponi stood out, scoring with 24 points (6-10 in triples).

Villa Miter did not start straight with the hoop and Lanús, with a good offensive transition, went away 8-0 in just over 3 minutes of play. However, Chervo began to have a good first half on the visit and ended that points drought a minute later (8-3), against a defense with moments of a zone of oiled mobility.

The global statistics of the comparison.

A bomb by Ríos took the local team away 13-3, with Antonio Rotilli enraged with the growth of his team and the need to turn the page after losing the first.

But the Villa did not lose its tranquility. Jano and Pennacchiotti managed the timing of the game, looking for a good selection of shots. In addition, the virtue of defensive rebounding allowed the visitor to have possessions to exploit and generate a break.

With Jano’s goal, the Bahia team stopped Granate and went on to win 18-17 with 47 seconds left in the quarter. Precisely, with a double converted by the point guard.

Lanús returned with its renewed mentality from the locker room and with two triples scored by Capponi and Scacchi it was the base to go away 57-46, with 5m26s left in the quarter. Quite a bet from the homeowner, taking into account that in the first stage he was 21% effective from the crescent.

There were four hits almost in a row and a fifth that shot the homeowner, who went on to win 61-50. In front, the Villa counted on the mobility of Harina, to exploit the spaces and look for the foul that gave them several frees to be able to add.

Just with 2-2 from the line, the tricolor shooter brought his team within 61-56, with 40 seconds left, although Capponi scored 3 in the other attack and the local team regained the advantage. But Harina did not let the last attack of the 3C escape and assisted Lozano for a triple that brought Villa within 65-59 heading into the last.

Lanús resumed its growth in the last, with the prominence of its driver and game leader, point guard Joaquín Ríos.

But as time wore on, the adrenaline grew and Villa Mitre, more patient and confident, took advantage of some recoveries to cut back and get closer with a until then discreet actor: Javier Bollo. The center added four points in a row that made the score 72-59, with 5m30s left to play.

A momentum that continued with points from Jano and Pennacchiotti, who tied it at 74 with 4m remaining, although Capponi brought Lanús out of lethargy and with a triple and additional play, oxygenated the score, followed by a double from Lugli that left the score 80-74 at 2m.

There were six consecutive points that inflated the advantage and filled Garnet with confidence, under the deafening noise of its fans.

Lanús went 10 ahead at 2m and there was nothing more to do for Villa Mitre, which had a game with several losses (16) and a low percentage of effectiveness in shots from 3 (28%).
