EuroBasket 2025: Spain resurrects with a crucial rout against Bosnia
Santi Aldama and Dario Brizuela lead the first victory of La Familia ahead of the important match against Cyprus.
The Eurobasket 2025 has intensified this Saturday with a day full of group stage matches. The Spanish National Team led by Sergio Scariolo closed the fourth day of competition with a very important victory against Bosnia. Santi Aldama, Willy Hernangómez, and Darío Brizuela were the architects of the triumph.
It was crucial for Spain to win this second match, especially after the initial huge disappointment against Georgia. Bosnia had won their first game, and not winning today would almost make it impossible to qualify for the next round.
But one should never stop believing in this team. As the current champion, La Familia controlled the game from start to finish. Thanks to a great first quarter (24-16). At the beginning of the final quarter, with a +25 difference for Spain, the victory was assured, finishing with a score of 88-67.
The MVPs of the Spanish National Team
As mentioned, Santi Aldama, Willy Hernangómez, and Darío Brizuela were the best Spanish players in the victory against Bosnia:
- Santi Aldama contributed 19 points and 5 rebounds.
- Darío Brizuela scored 15 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists.
- Willy Hernangómez reached 16 points and 4 rebounds.
Regarding other matches in Spain's Group C, Greece remains undefeated after defeating Cyprus in their second match (without Giannis Antetokounmpo), and Italy has beaten Georgia with a standout performance from Simone Fontecchio.
Furthermore, it's worth noting the surprising defeat of Slovenia against a team of "rookies" from France. Despite Luka Doncic's exceptional performance (39 points, 9 assists, and 8 rebounds), the team of the Lakers' star lost 103-95, their second consecutive defeat.
