Match Info

In a pivotal FIBA Basketball World Cup Asian Qualifier, China secured a crucial 87-80 road victory over Japan on February 26, 2026. This significant result strengthened China's position in the qualifying group and handed Japan a tough loss on their home court. The match was a high-intensity affair from the tip-off, with Japan's perimeter shooting keeping them in touch throughout the first three quarters. China's size advantage in the paint proved decisive, as they dominated the rebounding battle and scored consistently inside.
