The match is Japan vs Canada. Let’s look at what happened in both the team’s past matches. Serbia defeated Tokyo 2020 silver medalists Japan 69-64 after a great comeback in the opening round. After a quick start, the European champions led 24-9 at the end of the first session. Their rapid work also proved to be too much for their Asian competitors, who had too much to chew as the game progressed. Jovana Nogic led the Serbian team in scoring with 13 points and 9 rebounds.
After a tough 59-45 victory over France, Canada joined China and the United States as the only teams with a perfect record. With 17 points, six rebounds, and two steals, Nirra Fields led the Canadian team while Shay Colley chipped in with 11 points and six assists. The adversaries’ defense stifled Les Bleues, who had beaten the hosts Australia in their opening group encounter, and they struggled to hit their targets. Only 16 percent of their three-point shots were successful (3/19). The Australian Opals took home the night’s final victory after routing Mali, 118-58. Now Japan and Canada will come face to face where Canada has the upper hand being the stronger opponent for Japan.
