U-20 national team's European tour has concluded with a historic first !
The FIBA U20 European Championship Division B has come to an end. Held in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, our U20 national team, led by head coach Anar Sariyev, played its final match against the Netherlands, securing a 66–60 victory. As one of the three youngest squads among the 21 participating teams in Division B, our national team finished the championship in 11th place. This result has officially entered the record books as a historical first for Azerbaijani basketball. While finishing right in the middle of the standings might seem modest at first glance, the strength of our group and the high level of our opponents demonstrate that this is no ordinary achievement. The final standings of the teams from our group clearly prove this point. Sweden, the strongest opponent in our group, went on to win the bronze medal. Ireland successfully navigated the playoffs to finish 5th overall, while North Macedonia secured a spot in the top ten, finishing 9th. Thanks to their determined performance throughout the championship, our national team managed to outrank ten countries in the overall standings. Our players finished ahead of teams such as the Netherlands, Switzerland, Cyprus, Georgia, Denmark, Estonia, Slovakia, Armenia, Albania, and Kosovo. Securing 11th place in such a highly competitive environment represents both valuable international experience for our young athletes and a solid foundation for achieving even greater success in future tournaments.
