  • → Germany, yet to make their tournament debut, face an immediate test

Spain: Off to a Sharp Start

Spain opened their campaign with an 85–70 win over Great Britain, looking polished and composed for most of the night. Iyana Martín led the scoring with 14 points off the bench, showing poise beyond her years. Raquel Carrera controlled the boards with eight rebounds, and Elena Buenavida added a steady nine points. A 23-point halftime lead gave Spain breathing room, and despite some rebounding slippage late, they closed comfortably. It was a strong start from a young squad playing with confidence.

Germany: Awaiting Their First Tip-Off

Germany have yet to play in the tournament, with their opener coming against Sweden later on today. As co-hosts, expectations are high. Coach Lisa Thomaidis will lean on the talent of Satou Sabally, the do-it-all forward with WNBA and EuroLeague pedigree, and Leonie Fiebich, who brings size and shooting range. Alexis Peterson is expected to lead the backcourt. Germany’s strength will likely come from physicality and rebounding—but against a fast, well-spaced Spain, execution will need to be sharp from the outset.
