Australia too strong for Serbia in the second half

In the second half of the game, Australia turned the game around and demonstrated their strength against Serbia for their second victory at the Olympic Basketball Tournament. Serbia remain with one win after two games.

Serbia remain with one win after two games played at the Olympic Basketball Tournament in Rio de Janeiro. After previously edging out Venezuela they haven't managed to gather enough strength to do the same against Australia, despite good performance in the opening three quarters.

Serbia were in front by three points as the half time buzzer went on and by a point when the last quarter began. However, that's when things went downwards.

In the last quarter the fans witnessed an one-way traffic, since Australia prevailed with 33:17 in this period and turned the game in their favour. The final score was, deservedly 95:80. Australia now have two victories after two rounds played, while Serbia have one.

Miroslav Raduljica was the top scorer of Serbia with 25 points, while Miloš Teodosić added 17.
