Match Info

France Women secured a hard-fought 93-86 victory over a resilient Nigeria Women side in a Group Phase encounter of the 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup. The match, tipped off on March 16, 2026, saw the European powerhouses utilize their experience and execution in the final minutes to pull away from a Nigerian team that showcased impressive athleticism and fight throughout the contest. Nigeria's speed and pressure caused problems early, keeping the score tight through three quarters. France's offensive system, however, began to wear down the opposition in the final period, with precise ball movement creating open looks from beyond the arc. A key three-pointer from France's veteran leader with under three minutes to play extended the lead to seven points, a margin Nigeria could not overcome despite several desperate attempts. The game was not without controversy, as a crucial offensive foul call against Nigeria with two minutes remaining halted their momentum and drew strong protests from their bench. France's interior defense and ability to control the defensive glass in the closing stages were ultimately the difference. The win solidifies France's position at the top of their group, while Nigeria's competitive performance against a top-tier opponent will give them confidence moving forward in the tournament.
