In the most beautiful basketball game since the start of the competition, Germany ended up winning against Australia. And given the potential composition of the groups during the second phase, you will quickly understand that it was better to win this morning…
The stats of this little Sunday game wonder is right here
First information and not least: if Dennis Schroder and Patty Mills played an international competition every month, the debate for the GOAT would concern neither Michael Jordan nor LeBron James. Two playmakers, two men leaders, two perfect and literally unplayable leaders when they decide to take their selection on their shoulders.
Today ? The Germans started very strong (8-0), then Patty Mills started the venerable mode and stuck 13 in a row, welcome to the FIBA mode.

The pressure is in the tires, match started and this match will be… delicious. No Franz Wagner on the German side because ankle to be treated, but Dennis Schroder holds the house and Daniel Theis rules below, as Australian side Dante Exum once again showed the extent of his FIBA talent and Xavier Cooks delighted Wizards fans. Small for his position, the interior of the Boomers is a great revelation and is one of the X factors of this match, just like Josh Giddey who quickly becomes infernal when he puffs out his chest. Duop Reath is also doing the work below, and for the players of Gordon Herbert it’s another man who will put on the Dennis lieutenant costume in the second half. Her name ? Lo, Maodo of his first name, real human torch on this match, with the board sometimes but it counts when it is announced.
On the scoreboard the Australians took a lead in the third quarter, but from the start of the fourth the German defense put the Oceanians under the extinguisher as Dennis Schroder left to end his festival as he started it, with zero respect for the opposing defence. Patty Mills a little alone, the solutions which are struggling to be found, a money time which is getting closer and… Maodo Lo and Dennis Schroder who will finally take over, not without having been very scared at the buzzer on an attempt to counter Daniel Theis on Chuck Bass Josh Giddey’s latest shoot.
The final score? 85-82, with 30 pawns and 9 assists from D and 20 points for M. The result of this conclusion between Australians and Germans? Australia will have to roll up their sleeves in the coming days, as the road to the quarters will be strewn with pitfalls. Germany, it has two wins in two games, it will probably finish first in its group and puts itself well in sight of the quarters, knowing that in the second round the two teams will play in particular Slovenia. With a view to the quarterfinals, and with a view to the… Olympic Games too, because we remind you that this World Cup will qualify a certain number of nations for the 2024 Games, and that in this little game the Germans are therefore off to a good start.
