During the second quarter Kayseri Kaskispor were able to apply defensive pressure that restricted the hosts to just 8 second-quarter points.
Dynamo Moscow led by just a single point (32-31) at the break. But three minutes into the third quarter they trailed by 5 points.

A three-pointer by Svetlana Abrosimova with nine minutes to play broke the deadlock and Dynamo took hold of the match for good.
