Absolute dominance by the Europeans, who came away with a massive victory and booked their ticket to the quarterfinals
At the end of the second stage of the FIBA World Cup 2023, Serbia once again showed that, with a low profile, it seeks to achieve glory in this tournament. The Europeans faced the Dominican Republic with an obligation to win and, after having their best game of the competition, they crushed those led by Néstor García. With a final score of 112-79, they finished the first period with a record of four wins and just one loss. It will occupy second place in group I, below Italy, and cross first in J.
It was hard to find any cracks in what was a near-perfect match for Serbia. Those led by Svetislav Pesic finished with 88% efficiency in doubles! A brutal 35/40 in the category, in addition to 32% (8/25) in triples. They also dominated the aerial fight, and took advantage of their 11 steals to punish the fast attack. In the paint they scored 70 points, against just 32 for their rival, who found no defensive response in 40 minutes.
This is how the tournament will continue
