Without nationalist “crowns” the publications in Turkeyregarding the qualification of the Ergkin Ataman team-in Greece-in the Eurobasket final, after an imposing result (94-68).
Turkey’s leading sports newspaper, “Fanatik” in its title, said: “We are in the Eurobasket 2025 final! The 12 giants also defeated Greece!”
“12 Giants in the Final” writes in the title the “Anantolu” agency, then stating that “our national basketball team defeated Greece 94-68 in the Eurobasket semifinals and qualified for the final, where it will face Germany”.
In a similar climate, the title of CNN Turk states: “The spirit of 12 giants returned! The National Men’s Basketball Team in the final” and stresses that the team was easy to beat Greece.
Similar is the title of “Huriyet”, which said: “The 12 Giants in the Eurobasket final”, with the website “SPORX” standing in Turkey’s first victory against Greece in Eurobasket after 50 years.
