Greece, Czech Republic into last 16 in FIBA World Cup
"Our team played really amazingly," said Czech coach Ronen Ginzburg. "They did what I asked and more. They are lions. We will celebrate this win for a long time, personally and as a country."
Elsewhere, Patty Mills and Aron Baynes led Australia past Lithuania 87-82 to top Group H. Both teams reach last 16. Canada defeated Senegal 82-60, the two teams will play in the classification round.
France destroyed the Dominican Republic 90-56 to win Group G with four players scoring double-digit. Germany smashed Jordan 96-62 to win their first match at the World Cup, yet both of them will have to play the classification round.
"We valued this match and prepared for it obsessively. And we are looking forward to the tough game against Australia and Lithuania," France coach Vincent Collet said.
FIBA World Cup will start the second round matches on Sept 6.
