PRAGUE/HRADEC KRALOVE (FIBA EuroBasket Women 2017) - There was a wide spectrum of emotions on the second day of The Final Round as Slovenia bagged a first-ever win and hosts Czech Republic were eliminated.

It was a case of second time lucky for Slovenia as they wrote a historical line by posting a gutsy and compelling 59-56 win against Greece.Having only just failed to shock France in their first outing, they got the job done on a memorable night in Prague as Teja Oblak recorded 11 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists.

In stark contrast, there were tears of sadness rather than elation for hosts Czech Republic as they were eliminated after barely 24 hours of participation. They lost an intense duel 74-70 against Hungary which came after their opening day loss to Ukraine. Even a win against Spain on Monday won't help as their fate is sealed as the fourth-placed team in Group A.It was a brilliant effort by Hungary who had some outstanding contributions and most notably, Zsofia Fegyverneky who had 20 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

The most thrilling game of the day came in the capital as Belgium moved to 2-0 after a gripping and famous 76-75 overtime win against Russia. Ann Wauters and Emma Meesseman did great work in the paint with the former weighing in with 20 points and 9 rebounds and some great defensive plays too. The latter offered 23 points and 6 boards as they handed Russia a first loss.

Defending champions Serbia are staring down the barrel of a potential early exit after they went 0-2 with a 73-57 loss to unbeaten France.

Meanwhile, Quanitra Hollingsworth racked up the best individual display of the competition so far after a jaw-dropping 29 points and 21 rebounds in an exciting 54-53 win against Italy to top Group B.

In the same pool, Slovak Republic got off the mark with a 68-59 success against the still winless Belarus as the legendary Zuzana Zirkova produced a line of 22 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.

Spain posted a scintillating second-half as they cruised past Ukraine 76-54 with Sancho Lyttle again dominant and adding 16 points and 18 boards.

Latvia were floundering against Montenegro in the early stages of their Group D clash but completed a stunning comeback. Elina Babkina netted 27 points and 7 assists to facilitate a 76-55 victory.
