Gems set for Quarter-Final showdown with Hungary

Australia’s U19 Women's team continues its undefeated campaign in Brno as it prepares for a pivotal knockout fixture against Hungary.

Australia’s Gems are charging into the quarter-finals of the FIBA U19 Women’s Basketball World Cup 2025 with serious momentum, preparing to face Hungary on Friday, July 18.

Fresh off a dominant 95–46 win over Argentina in the Round of 16, the Aussies were ready to go from tip-off with Prasayus Notoa leading the charge with 11 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists.

The Gems remain undefeated in the tournament. 

AUSTRALIA V HUNGARY

Both teams are dedicated to sharing and moving the ball, so it should be a great battle of who does it best.

Key Matchups to Watch

  • Madi Ryan vs Hungary’s perimeter defense – Ryan’s shooting range and ability to move off the ball will test Hungary’s rotations and closeouts.
  • Australia’s rebounding unit vs Ratkai – The Gems were dominant on the boards against Brazil and Argentina, but Hungary will challenge them with more size and toughness inside.
  • Tempo control – Australia thrives in transition. Hungary must dictate pace if they want to stay within striking distance.
