The men’s national team is in first place in Group A, with the absolute “2 out of 2” victories, as China has not come to Crete and its opponents are taking the games on paper. Given the first place in the group, the men’s national team is waiting for its opponent in the “8” which will be the second team, of the 2nd group (A1-B2) which has been up and down after the defeat of the USA by Israel and of Slovenia’s 80-67 win over Israel today.
The US men’s team impressively dismantled Hong Kong 133-38, but remain in third place in Group B after being beaten by tie-favored Israel.

Women with Poland
After the defeat in the premiere against Ukraine, victory for the Women’s National Team against Poland is a one-way street. We remind you that at the 24th Deaf Olympic Games in Brazil, our National Team defeated Poland 55-51 in the Group Stage, but was defeated 71-61 in the match for the bronze medal.
