Vikings kept at it and with 2 more three pointers, 1 each from Jamie Boynton and Jacob Hancock (first points in a Vikings uniform) to make the score more respectable. First quarter ended 19 - 10 for the Lithuanians.

The Vikings ineffective zone defence meant a change to man. This brought immediate results and energy and also opened up the offence. The Vikings as a result managed to win the quarter 22 - 17.

With the score 35 - 32 at the start of the 3rd quarter Vikings were looking to close the gap further. However, the away team adjusted and started the 3rd quarter strongly going on a 7 - 3 run to widen the gap. A major injury to a Arunas Urnikis (Leeds Lithuanians) let to a stoppage of the game to ensure that the player was alright. Eventually the game continued and the Vikings managed to recover in the second part of the 3rd quarter scoring 8 points against 5. The third quarter ended 12 - 11 for the Lithuanians.

With the Leeds team leading by 6 points in the start of the final quarter was a very physical and competitive game.

Lithuanians managed to also break the pressure defence a couple of time to score a few easy baskets to take the last quarter 16 - 12 and win the match.
