Arantia did not score from the field in that period and only got its first point through Fabio Valerius (15).
The second quarter was more balanced offensively, but Vibball still kept full control. Arantia got some production from Rui Carlos Silva (14) and Valerius, yet Vibball answered each small push. Dimitri Vassjutinski (13) had a strong sequence late in the half with 7 points in a row, helping extend the margin to 61-15 at the break.
After halftime, Arantia showed better rhythm through Silva, Valerius and Jang Hoffmann (12), but Vibball's attack never slowed enough to let the game tighten. Mustafa Yakta Inal (14) became more prominent in the second half, and Foz Moutinho kept finishing inside. The gap kept growing from 44 points after three quarters to the final 67-point margin, which was also the game's highest lead.
Vibball had five players in double figures: Foz Moutinho with 26, Sveda 24, Adamski 23, Inal 16 and Vassjutinski 11. For Arantia, Silva led with 14 points and Valerius added 9. Sam Gölhausen (12) contributed 4 points, and Ben Welter (14) added 4.
Arantia coach Joao Miguel Guerra saw a much better response after the first quarter, but Vibball's early pressure and repeated scoring runs had already shaped the game.
