On the last day of the first stage of the 2023 World Cup, basketball fans are waiting for a head-to-head match to advance to the second group stage. One of them will be played in Group C (Greece – New Zealand), while the second will meet representatives of the G-quartet, where Ivory Coast and Brazil will compete for the final transition position.

Ivory Coast

Representatives of the African continent participate in the fifth World Cup in their history. And before the current tournament, they had nothing to brag about. In the previous four championships, the Ivorian team played twenty matches and only won one.

However, in Indonesia, the “elephants” managed to win as many wins in two matches as in previous years. The match against the Iranian team on the second match day was a success for them. In this, Africans were stronger in competition – 71:69. This feat surpassed the negative impressions of the devastating 64:94 defeat against Spain in the first round.

In addition to qualifying for the second round, the Ivorians can achieve a unique achievement for themselves thanks to today’s win. The fact is that at the 2023 World Cup one of the best teams from all continents gets a direct pass to the 2024 Olympics. And thanks to the victory over the Brazilians, Ivory Coast has a chance to become the leading representative of Africa in tomorrow’s tournament.

The base of the team is made up of physically strong and athletic basketball players often seen in African teams. Most of them play in French clubs, where such players are always appreciated. Among the personalities, it is necessary to highlight defender Maurien Nisre Zuzua (17 points + 4 rebounds against Iran) and his backline colleague from Germany’s Karlsruhe Bazuman Kone (11 points against Spain).

Brazil

The FIBA ​​Americas region team started the tournament with a smashing 100:59 win against the Iranians, then they tried to fight the Spaniards but it didn’t work out very well. The Brazilians lost 78:96 to the reigning world champion.

In these two games, Brazil was led by their leader. Big man Bruno Caboclo, who sensationally led the German Ratiopharm local championship last season, and defender Iago dos Santos were also expected to play lead roles in the national team. Caboclo had 16 points + 7 rebounds against Iran, 15 points + 11 rebounds against Spain, while Iago dos Santos recorded 14 points + 6 assists against Iran, 14 points + 6 rebounds + 4 assists against Europe. .

It is worth noting that Brazil received a very serious blow to its personnel potential in the first round. In the easily won match against Iran, Turkish Fenerbahce defender Raul Neto, who completed the tournament in Asia, suffered a serious injury.

Favorites and strangers are clearly visible in the decisive match of Group G. Brazil was considered the second power of this four even before the tournament started. But the African team will definitely do their best to win, because not only is the Ivorian’s sensational exit to the second round, but also the Olympic dream is at stake.
