Fuerza Regia de Monterrey — Mineros: 100:101, LNBP

Fuerza Regia de Monterrey lost 100-101 to Mineros in the LNBP on 16 September 2026. The scoreline tells you nothing of how tight the contest was. By then the lead had shifted twice and neither side wanted to yield.

We had backed the hosts at 55 per cent confidence. The prediction did not come off. And here's the thing — Regia's recent form suggested otherwise. They had won four of five, including a 103-74 demolition of Santos on 12 September. Mineros were less consistent, losing one of their last three against Red Devils.

To be fair, the visitors brought something different. They had beaten Dorados 92-82 on 30 August before losing 71-95 in the rematch. That inconsistency can be a strength. Unpredictable teams are harder to prepare for.

The result leaves Regia with a question mark. They had not lost since 30 August, when they fell 75-76 to Abejas. Mineros now extend their own run of mixed results. The gap in the table will tell you more than this one game.

What matters is momentum. Regia came into this one confident after back-to-back wins over Santos. Mineros had shown they could win and lose in the same day against Dorados. Sometimes the team that accepts chaos wins.
