- ADESIF#RCK
The first team of Bobo Dipoulasso against the second team of Ouagadougou. The first and the second quarter of this match were for ADESIF. Everyone thought that the falcons after losing against the electricians and the bulls were not able to win the semifinal, as they seemed to be so bad this year its was wrong. In the third quarter, they raised up their play. The west league team which seems to be better fell down with 20 points late at the end of the quarter. the falcons got their ticket for the final. Kader Tapsoba, the young center of the team, was the best player. Blocks, dunks he showed us that he is on the way to be one of our best center. During the second tour of the season, he was with Ben Sada, Yves and Telesphore, the players who gave qualification to the RCK.
The Final
Yves ARISTE gave the final to the RCK
Kadiogo Bulls#RCK
The systeme of the Bulls against the one to one play of the falcons.
The last year final gave us the same opposition. The falcons won it. This year, the Bulls seemed to be better and strong; they won the two matches against this team.
The first point was for the Bulls with an assist of Mamadou to Cedric. Innocent Hien of the falcons gave response immediately by an assist to Ismael who scored a Three point shoot. The show can begin bila dunk for the bulls. At this time Yves ARISTE begun his match. In the second quarter, at the beginning, Ben Sada DABIRE hurt himself immediately after taking a substitution. Kader Tapsoba (falcon) did his entry. The play became hard. Momo went out and Yves had to play point guard for his team. At he end of the second quarter, the score was 29-25 for the bulls.
At the third quarter, Kader in the restricted area stopped all the layup. Yves, faster and very technical, played with his defenders and scored. At the end of this quarter, the falcons leaded by 41-34.
The last quarter: Isaac Palenfo (-C) of the bulls has been fouled out; yves speeded up the game; Telesphore SOME, the last year MVP, scored at three points; Kader did the show by rebounds and alley oups; it was the time of the falcons; the shoot at three points of Pele KONE and the substitutions of coach DABIRE (bulls) didnt change anything; the falcons was, for the second time consecutively, the Faso basket champions

- RCK # Kadiogo Bulls
For the second time, the bulls won against the Falcons this season. The last season champion have many difficulties to this season. Ben Sada DABIRE and his team mates, this season couldnt find the way to play a collective play. Paton Ismael KONE, Telesphore SOME, Losseni DRABO and the others forgot that the one man show cant win a championship two times consecutively. Its hard to win by three points shoots. Coach Roger COULIBALY doesnt know that he won last year because he had the best players and that the other teams didnt work during the preseason. Today, its not the same thing. Many teams worked hard to rise up their level. Kadiogo Bulls is one of these teams. This team is here today to win the competition and as we saw it this year, the Bulls can do it.
For this match, Mamadou SAWADOGO didnt play. He took two Technical fouls the last match and was suspended for one match. Everyone thought that the Falcons will win easily. During the first and the second quarter, coach DABIRE tried his system at all the position (from the point guard to the center). The score was tied at the halftime.
In the third quarter, the falcons took advance of 4 points. During the fourth quarter, the bulls saw that they can win this match. They defended hard. Pele KONE was at the beginning of the system; when the falcons played a one man show, the bulls played collectively; the falcons lost many balls... and the match.
the Kadiogo Bulls is the first team of Ouagadougou which is qualified for the semifinals
Score: 41-44 for the Bulls
Best scorer: Ismal Paton KONE (RCK) with 15 points

This time again, the electricians were not able to win against the petroliers; they lead the match and at the halftime the score was 23-35.
In the third quarter, Ibrahim OUEDRAOGO, BAYALA and the point guard Norbert PARKOUDA were too tired! Coach COULDIATY didnt want to take substitutions. The petroliers speeded up the game; at the end of the quarter the electricians leaded with 4 points.
