„Černá Hora se vyznačuje balkánským, docela agresivním basketbalem. Hráčky z těchto zemí mají takový přirozený talent, je to nevyzpytatelný soupeř,“ uvedla k prvnímu soupeři trenérka národního týmu Romana Ptáčková.
Pokud Češky chtějí postoupit do čtvrtfinále, které se kompletně odehraje stejně jako zbytek play off v řeckém přístavu Pireus, potřebují uspět. Ze čtyřčlenné skupiny totiž postupují dva nejlepší, přičemž první místo si nárokují obhájkyně titulu Belgičanky, které vstoupí do turnaje večerním zápasem v Brně od 20:15 proti nováčkovi turnaje Portugalsku.
„Proti Černé Hoře to bude jeden z nejdůležitějších zápasů turnaje. Pokud do něj dobře vstoupíme a uspějeme, tak se nám uleví, i když hned druhý den nás čekají Portugalky,“ přemítala kapitánka českého týmu Tereza Vyoralová.
Podle sázkových kanceláří jsou favoritem čtvrtečního souboje Češky, které obhajují překvapivé sedmé místo z evropského šampionátu před dvěma lety v Izraeli a Srbsku.
Tam se mezi osmičku nejlepších dostala i Černá Hora. Balkánské reprezentaci ale nevyšla příprava a letos se nemůže spolehnout na svou ústřední hvězdu Natashu Mackovou, která zůstala v zámořské WNBA. Potvrdí Češky před zaplněným hledištěm roli favoritek?

Brewers’ NLDS Game 1 Win Over Cubs Tempered by Jackson Chourio’s New Injury
Another clutch playoff performance by Jackson Chourio had a concerning conclusion for the outfielder and the Milwaukee Brewers.After becoming the first player to collect three hits in the first two innings of a postseason game, Chourio left Saturday’s 9-3 NL Division Series victory over the Chicago Cubs with tightness in his right hamstring.Brewers manager Pat Murphy said after Game 1 that Chourio had undergone an MRI. Chourio missed a month during the regular season with an injury to the same hamstring."They haven’t said anything," Chourio said through an interpreter. "We’re still waiting. But physically I feel good, and I feel in a position where I’m ready to keep going and keep competing."Murphy didn’t sound as optimistic."Obviously it’s real scary," he said. "Having that same hamstring injury to the same leg, we’re hoping that it’s something he can come back from […]
Can Billy Napier save his job again? Upset win over Texas a good start as Florida offense shows signs of life
Florida coach Billy Napier operates best with his back against the wall. For a second straight year, his Gators looked dead in the water before the midway point of the season. And, for a second straight year, Napier might be on the path back to redemption after Florida notched its second win of the season in a stunning 29-21 upset of No. 9 Texas. At the very least, his seat has cooled for another week. It's a movie that Florida fans have seen before. Fresh off a losing season in 2023, Florida started 4-4 in 2024, including a 13-point loss to unranked Texas A&M, a 24-point loss to Miami and a 14-point loss to Georgia. But just days after that loss to Georgia, Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin reaffirmed his faith in his embattled football coach. A rejuvenated Napier led Florida to a […]
Texas fails to live up to lofty hype: Offensive shortcomings plague Longhorns team ranked preseason No. 1
The 2025 college football season has already handed us plenty of curveballs and surprise teams, but as we take stock of the landscape with many teams approaching the midpoint of their year, it's hard to argue there's a more disappointing team in America than the Texas Longhorns. Other teams have fallen short of preseason expectations, and certainly many of those are playing much worse than the Longhorns, who fell to 3-2 with Saturday's 29-21 loss to unranked Florida in Gainesville. Texas' defense has been a shining star for much of the year, starting with a strong showing against No. 1 Ohio State in a 14-7 loss in Week 1 and continuing with absolute defensive gems through the rest of the nonconference slate. But as SEC play kicked off and the competition ramped up, Texas did not meet the moment. Ultimately, that should […]
Emmett Johnson powers Nebraska past Michigan State

Mandatory Credit: Kylie Graham-Imagn Images Emmett Johnson ran for 83 yards and three touchdowns and Carter Nelson returned a blocked punt for a score Saturday as host Nebraska rallied for a 38-27 victory over Michigan State. Dylan Raiola also completed 16 of 24 passes for 194 yards and a touchdown for the Cornhuskers (4-1, 1-1 Big Ten). The Spartans (3-2, 0-2 Big Ten) tied it at 14 in the third quarter when quarterback Aidan Chiles scored on a 16-yard run on a fourth-and-4 play. On the Cornhuskers' following possession, Raiola was intercepted by Jordan Hall. Seven plays later, Chiles ran four yards for a touchdown to give the Spartans their first lead, 21-14. […]

College football winners, losers in Week 6: UCLA rises from the ashes, preseason No. 1 Texas full of flaws
Week 6 of the college football season was framed as a lackluster slate. Instead, the midday slate took a blowtorch to expectations. Projected College Football Playoff teams No. 7 Penn State and No. 9 Texas lost stunners against unranked opponents to shake up the picture. The Nittany Lions' loss against UCLA was one of the most surprising losses of the season as 24-point favorites against a winless squad. No. 14 Iowa State similarly dropped a big game against Cincinnati that could have long-ranging implications for both programs. In the evening slate, there are still big-time battles remaining. No. 3 Miami travels to No. 18 Florida State in a heavyweight showdown. Ohio State tries to hold off an upset bid by Minnesota, and Texas Tech's elite trenches get tested by Houston. Here are the biggest winners and losers of college football's Week 6 heading […]
