A really close match the whole way, Red and Blue trading the lead back and forth the entire match. Coming down to the last 20-30 seconds, both alliances start to setup a triple balance.

As both alliances are executing the triple balance the real time score has blue up by 1. The HP from 125 on red nails a full court shot into the mid basket to put Red up by 1.

Right after both alliances get their triple balances locked in, the blue HP hits a full court shot into the mid basket, now putting blue up by 1.

Only a few seconds after blue drains their full court shot, the red HP hits ANOTHER full court shot into the mid basket to put red up by 1 for good.

The lead changed hands twice essentially without any robots moving.

Unfortunately it doesn't show the scoreboard but you can still see some of the human player shots and how crazy the match must've been from the expressions of the people behind the glass.
