Türkiye on a mission: Greece swept aside 94–68 to reach the EuroBasket Final

Ataman’s team brings twice the energy and returns to the final for the first time since 2001. Disappointing Greeks never in the game

Second one-sided semifinal in Arena Riga, as Türkiye dominates Greece 94–68 and advances to the final for the second time, the first since 2001, where they will face Germany for the gold medal.

The Turks were in control from the start — already up 7–0 early — and the physical and mental energy gap between the two teams was clear throughout. Osmani was unstoppable from long range (6/8), Sengun delivered his usual all-around performance, but it was a true team win, as shown by the 27 assists recorded.

As mentioned, Greece was never really in the game. Giannis was heavily contained by coach Ataman’s defense, finishing with just 12 points, and the 22 turnovers committed by the Greeks set a negative record that’s hard to explain.
