The battle of Managua

Day: 20/1. Local time: 19.30. TV: DirecTV.

Stadium: Polideportivo Alexis Argüello, Managua, Nicaragua.

Polideportivo Alexis Argüello promises to be full to encourage the dream of an all country. In Nicaragua tonight one of the qualifiers to the semifinals of the Basketball Champions League Americas will be defined, as Real Estelí forced the third game of the quarter-final series against Instituto, with the victory in the second match 87-85.

In a crazy final, with chances for both, Estelí knew how to close it better and stayed with the game, which allowed him to have one more life this Monday. Moreover, as locals, those directed by David Rosario are undefeated, because in this event defeated Fuerza Regia (90-65), Capitanes (99-85) and Instituto (87-85).



The best of Real Estelí was again Jezreel De Jesús, with 27 points and 4 assists. The point guard said: "We did a great job, it got tough, but we got it done. Now we need people's cheer for the third game."

On the Instituto side, Dwayne Davis stood out again with 27 points, but he missed the game when he had almost won. Tonight will be hand to hand: the winner will be among the four best against Flamengo.
