Lecomte leads Belgium to a 70-69 victory over Poland with a near buzzer-beater in 3 seconds!

On September 6, Belgium defeated host Poland 70-69, bringing their UEFA Euro 2025 campaign to a respectable close. With 3.2 seconds remaining, Manu Lecomte hit a crucial jump shot, becoming Belgium's hero.

The outcome of this match did not affect the group stage. Since Slovenia had earlier defeated Israel, Poland would advance to the round of 16 as runner-up in Group D regardless of win or loss , while Belgium had already lost their chance in the previous round. Ultimately, Belgium finished their group stage with a record of 2 wins and 3 losses, while Poland advanced with a record of 3 wins and 2 losses , and will face Bosnia and Herzegovina in Riga.

 

Belgium held a 14- point lead in the third quarter , leading 51-37 . However, Poland launched a 17-7 run , narrowing the gap to just two points. Entering the fourth quarter, both teams' offensive efficiency plummeted, with neither team scoring more than 12 points per quarter. The game remained suspenseful until the final moments, when Lecomte decisively shot against the defense, nearly winning the game.

 

Lecomte finished with 19 points and hit the game-winning shot, unsurprisingly earning him the TCL Player of the Game award. For Poland, Olejniczak, coming off the bench, delivered a well-rounded performance, contributing 12 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 blocks. Ponitka, with 16 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists, remained the team's core attacking force.

 

Belgium's three-point shooting was excellent, reaching 11 of 27 , a shooting percentage exceeding 40%. Poland, leveraging its interior dominance, scored 36 points in the paint, while Belgium only managed 14. Both teams showcased their unique talents, but the final victory came down to the individual skill of the final shot.
