Before Thursday’s game against Montenegro, women’s team head coach Mariusz Dziurdzia talked about the „historical opportunity » of the national team in the next 4 games and added that all basketball fans in Luxembourg are allowed to „dream of qualifying ». After Thursday’s sensational victory over Montenegro , the dream of participating in the European Championship 2025 is alive more than ever before Sunday’s meeting with Switzerland at the Coque in Kirchberg (17:00).
At this moment, Luxembourg is on top of group H with a perfect record.
1. Luxembourg (3 games, 6 points)
2. Montenegero (3 games, 5 points)
3. Switzerland (3 games, 4 points)
4. Bosnia (3 games, 3 points)
Let’s repeat that the 8 group winners and the 4 best second ranked teams qualify for the European Championship 2025. With a victory over Switzerland on Sunday, Luxembourg could clinch a top 2 spot in the group. However, it is not possible for Luxembourg to clinch the first place on Sunday. Nevertheless, improving to 4:0 would give the FLBB squad a perfect situation to qualify in the next window in February. Even if Luxembourg loses on Sunday and falls to a 3:1 record, everything remains possible in the last window when the FLBB team will play on the road in Bosnia and Montenegro.
The team is looking forward to YOUR support in the gym on Sunday!
