Romania has lost the match with Hungary in Group B of the precalifications of the 2027, 66-86 World Cup, and will most likely occupy the 2nd place in the standings, to play in the next round.
The match played in the Tiszaliget City Sports Hall Arena in Szolnok left us a bitter taste not only because of the result, but also the behavior of the hosts of the hosts, which have denying the national anthem of Romania. After “wake up, Romanian!” It began to be heard in the speakers, some of the fans in the stands have released the whistles and whistles. Gradually, their gesture was taken over by almost all the spectators, especially when the flag of our country was displayed on the arena screen. The Romanian basketball players were not intimidated, and even more pathos.

However, our athletes have not been able to respond on the field, during the match. The tricolors maintained the balance in the first two quarters, so that in the second half of the match they would collapse. 86-66 has been completed, a score at which Romania is in the first place in the group, but will probably be detached by Hungary, which has a match. Anyway, our basketball players are qualified in the next phase of the World Cup preliminaries.
