Crispa's intense defense forced the Comets into 10 errors alone in the first quarter and the Redmanizers took a 26–14 advantage in the first 12 minutes of play. A couple of sizzling layups by Rey Franco past Toyota import Byron "Snake" Jones highlighted Crispa's surge to its biggest lead of 16 points in the third quarter, 64-48.

Crispa took an 87–80 lead in the final stretch. Johnny Burks followed fellow import Pete Crotty to the bench with six fouls with still 3:10 left. The Comets came close to within 89–92, with still 1:35 left. Bogs Adornado, who topscored with 18 points, banged in his final basket off Orly Bauzon and though Sonny Jaworski narrowed it down to three, 91–94, Philip Cezar redeemed himself from the previous error by sinking in the clincher for the Redmanizers, a driving lay-up off Ramon Fernandez which triggered off a riot moments later. Toyota coach Dante Silverio, who blamed the referees for the riot, sent in only four men in the last 30 seconds.http://crispatoyota.blogspot.com/1975/12/game-21-crispa-96-toyota-91-dec-14-1975.html Crispa wins, captures All-Philippine title crispatoyota.blogspot.com
