The Turkish side had a better start of the game, winning the first set and taking the lead 1-0 (25-22). 

In the second set, we saw a great battle, pushing both sides to the limits. However, the Brazilian team managed to win it by two points of advantage 26-24 to tie the score in sets.

It gave a confidence boost to Minas that simply smashed the rival in the third set to take the lead 2-1 (25-13). Even though Minas were leading almost all the time in the fourth set, Eczacibasi managed somehow to make a comeback and to force the tie-break.
