USA easily defeated China

The USA had no problems even against the national team that showed the most with them in the first two rounds, 77-63. Already in the first half, the American women had an advantage of over twenty points. USA led 44-25 at halftime. In the third quarter, the Chinese women managed to reduce the difference, but did not seriously threaten the USA. The national team that has been dominating world basketball for years routinely got the job done until the end of the game.

In the winning team, Aja Wilson scored 20 points with 8 rebounds. Chelsea Gray and Alyssa Thomas had 12-point performances. Li Meng scored 21 points in the defeated team. Wang Siyu added 17 points. The Chinese women had a better field goal percentage, but they had as many as 19 turnovers. That way, you can’t play against a multiple world champion. In this way, the USA almost certainly secured first place before the knockout stage. In the remaining two matches, the American women will play against the national teams that played a duel with each other in this round.
