A pure triple, Italy defeated Serbia 78 to 76

The Italian national team started the second stage of the FIBA​​​​​​World Cup 2023 with a great victory against a very difficult Serbia. It was 78 to 76 in the game played at the venue of Quezon, Philippines.

Gianmarco Pozzecco’s men were resilient, even though the Balkans had an advantage of 16 in their favour. Led by Simone Fontecchio, of immense level and fame, the Utah Jazz player added 30 points (11/15 TC) and 7 rebounds. One of the keys to tanos is his effectiveness from the 3 line; They shot 52.4% on 11-for-21 from there, including 3/4 from Marco Spissu, who finished with 14 points.

In Serbia they did not reach the 18 points of Bogdan Bogdanovic, who was not accurate with triples, with 1/13 from there. Milutinov with 14 and Dobric with 13 were other high scorers for Pesic’s men.
