The top scorer of the match was Juciely Barreto from the Rio de Janeiro team with 12 points.

 

Led by the home crowd, Brazilian Superliga silver medalists, Dentil/Praia Clube, became the second finalists after prevailing over Peruvian giants Universidad San Martín in an exciting game which eventually ended in three sets 25-18, 25-23 and 25-13. Fabiana Claudino was the main figure of the Brazilian team with 17 points, while Peruvian star Ángela Leyva had 12 for San Martín.
