They held on well at the start of the second period, but then Zadar made a strong run and turned the game around.

Mega fought until the end but didn’t have enough strength for a comeback.

Zadar opened the game better and took a 10:2 lead, but Mega gradually raised its level of play and, with a 14:0 run, completed a turnaround (18:15). They managed to keep the lead and went into the first break up 24:19. Avdalović’s team went ahead by seven early in the second quarter, but the hosts responded, tying the game midway through the period and then taking the lead (38:32). Marković, Radojičić, and Drezgić then sparked Mega, but Zadar still held a 46:43 advantage at halftime.

Mega continued playing well after the break, and within less than three and a half minutes turned the score around (53:52). However, Zadar regained control, though Mega did not let them pull away significantly. Still, the home side entered the decisive quarter with a six-point lead (66:60). Very quickly in the fourth, Zadar increased the margin to double digits. Mega couldn’t mount a comeback and was forced to concede.
