The net loss of 10 points in the first quarter, and the loss was 6 points! The European Cup was upset, the German men s basketball team should not think it is stable

The 2025 European Cup knockout round of the men's basketball team started as scheduled, Turkey vs Sweden, Bosnia and Herzegovina vs Poland, Latvia vs Lithuania, Greece vs Israel, Portugal vs Germany, Italy vs Slovenia, Serbia vs Finland, Georgia vs France, 16 teams fought against each other and fought for the top 8 seats. There are 4 games on the first match day of the knockout stage, and every game is full of suspense and unpopularity. This also sounds the alarm for all teams who want to compete for the championship: There are no weak teams in Europe, and you can only laugh to the end if you know yourself, your opponent, respect your opponent, respect your opponent, and respect your game!

Latvia lost 10 points in the first quarter, and 5 fouls of Posses left the game

Latvia was in Group A of the group stage, with 3 wins and 2 losses, with a net victory over the opponent 28 points; Lithuania was in Group B of the group stage, with 4 wins and 1 loss, with a net victory over the opponent 38 points. But compared with the traditional European strong team Lithuania, Latvia is younger and has a more modern style of playing. This set of duels is also a battle between the traditional inside Varan and the modern inside Posses. In this strong dialogue, Latvia started slowly and lost 10 points in the first quarter and dug a big hole. From the second quarter, the Latvian team fought back, especially the Posses, constantly attacking the inside and causing damage, but Valan was still strong and could always respond on both offense and defense. In the final quarter, Ramaz made a three-pointer in a row to prosper Latvia's life, but he made a physical foul. Lithuanian killed the game with a free throw, overturning Latvia 88-79.

Latvia lost the game in an upset and was determined to kill the enemy but unable to turn the world back. The God of Wa burned up all his life and fought until five fouls left the field. Poly God played for 33 minutes, made 10 of 22 shots (4 of 8 three-pointers), 10 of 15 free throws, scored 34 points + 19 rebounds + 1 assist + 1 steal + 2 blocks. The Posses are alone in the interior, while the Lithuanian team crushes the Latvian team's five-in-one lineup with its signature team basketball and interior advantages. After the whole game, Lithuania caused 31 fouls in Latvia and 44 fouls to the free throw line and scored 30 points; as a comparison, Latvia only made 14 fouls in Lithuania and scored 12 points in 20 fouls, and Latvia lost 18 points in free throw alone! This is the charming thing about the European Cup. When it comes to the flesh, it depends on who is tougher!

Serbia lost 6 points, Jokic missed Bogdan

Lithuanian defeated Latvia in an upset, but it was surprising that Serbia lost to Finland. The Serbian team is the real uncrowned king of Europe, winning 1 Olympic silver medal + 1 Olympic bronze medal + 1 World Cup runner-up + 3 European Cup champions! Jokic personally played in this men's basketball European Cup, and the Serbian team is also the number one favorite to win the championship. But in the final game of the group stage, Serbia lost to Turkey in an upset manner, which laid hidden dangers for them in the knockout round. Facing the Finnish team led by Markkanen, Serbia relied on Jokic's brave performance to drag the suspense to the end of the game, but the Finnish team was not afraid of both internal and external use in the face of danger, shattering the Serbian team's defense line. Serbia lost the game 86-92 86-92 and was eliminated with a 6-point defeat.

Jokic fought hard for 33 minutes, made 9 of 13 shots (1 of 2 three-pointers), made 14 of 19 free throws, scored 33 points + 8 rebounds + 3 assists + 3 steals + 1 block, burning himself to both ends of the offense and defense! Serbia lost the game in an upset, and the rebound was exposed and it struggled slightly, especially the frontcourt rebounds, which were crushed by Finland 12-20. More importantly, with Bogdan and others being injured, Serbia's offensive stability and deterrence are not enough to cover up the shortcomings in the defensive end. Especially outside the three-point line, Goodridge made 1 of 8 and Dobridge made 1 of 6. They played sorrow music for the Serbian team with their irons again and again. At that moment, I believe Jokic would miss Bogdan very much: If you are here, why worry about the great cause?

The European Cup was a big upset, and the German men's basketball team did not think it was stable

In addition to the above two games, the other two sets of duels were also ups and downs. Turkey vs. Sweden, Sweden is like a strong man who cannot be beaten. Turkey has narrowly passed the level with Shen Jing's dominant offensive and defensive performance of 24 points + 16 rebounds + 6 assists + 2 blocks. Germany vs Portugal, Germany once had 22 consecutive three-pointers, and Portugal closely tied the score in the first three quarters. It was not until the fourth quarter that the German team used a 33-7 offensive to reap the game. With the Serbian team being eliminated in a sad way, the German men's basketball team replaced it and became the biggest favorite to compete for the championship. However, it has to be said that the European Cup knockout game determines the outcome, and it is hard to say who will win and win the battle! The same thing: German men's basketball team, don't think it's stable! Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
