On February 12, 2024, the Women's Basketball Olympic Qualifying Tournament came to an end, and an unexpected and huge change shocked the global basketball community. In this thrilling match, the world champion Brazilian women's basketball team was eliminated from the Paris Olympics, while the United States beat Senegal 101-39 and Japan beat Canada in another game to make it to the Olympic stage. The final round of the Women's Basketball Olympic Qualification Tournament was particularly eye-catching. World champion Brazil is in a do-or-die battle with Germany. Brazil have lost their previous two games in a row and will be out of the tournament if they lose again, while Germany have added to their hopes of qualifying with a previous victory. However, Germany started the game in good form, attacking and defending, leading 19-14 in the first quarter and holding a 39-35 lead at halftime. Although the Brazilian women's basketball team showed tenacious fighting spirit in the game, they finally lost 71-73 and missed the Paris Olympics.
This match is undoubtedly a huge blow for Brazil. The difference in the score was only 2 points, and the statistics were very close, but the Brazilian women's basketball team failed to take advantage of the opportunity at the beginning of the game. Germany had a slight advantage in shooting percentage, which was a big reason for Brazil's defeat. Meanwhile, the U.S. women's basketball team showed overwhelming strength in the match against Senegal. The U.S. won comfortably with a game-high 101-39 in an almost one-sided game. They took a 29-15 lead in the first quarter and were already 50-23 at halftime. Throughout the game, the U.S. team's stats were astonishing, showing their dominance. Ryan Vanicia Howard scored a game-high 25 points, while the U.S. also had 49 rebounds, 26 assists, eight steals and four blocks while shooting 50 percent from the field.
However, on the other side of the game, the Japanese women's basketball team and Canada fought a battle of life and death. Japan's previous defeat has left them with all their strength in this game. Canada, which is ranked higher than itself in the world, and the Japanese women's basketball team showed tenacious fighting spirit and excellent technical and tactical performance. Building on team spirit and excellent three-point shooting from the outside, they came back from behind to win a staggering four-point victory over Canada and secure a ticket to the Paris Olympics. This game was more than just a victory, for the Japanese women's basketball team, it was a reflection of the results of their years of hard work. Not only did Japan beat tough opponents like Spain and Canada, but they also showed their competitiveness and strength on the international stage. It is worth noting that in this year's women's basketball Olympic qualifying tournament, only two Asian teams, China and Japan, successfully qualified for the Paris Olympics.
