It was the first big shock of this euro in 2025. years, between two teams that are potentially capable of going to the podium.
The result? There Turkie He told his ambitions in the face of a Latvia which showed its boundaries. Upon arrival, Altereren Sengun (16 points, 8 rebokes, 7 assists) and his teammates won in large widths (93-73), imposing a cold shower on the public of Riga, who saw Kristaps Porzingis (10 points in 3/12, 6 balls of balls) suffer.
It’s Kenan Sipahi (19 points to 5/5 so far) set up a tone for a trunk meeting from Ergin Ataman. Latvia is committed to the best of which I can, while Šehmus Hazer places a poster on the unicorn’s falcon!

It will be on Friday, as opposed to Estonia (5:00:00) when Turkey will continue against the Czech Republic (1:45 p.m.).
