Great Britain U18 Women beat North Macedonia U18 Women 59–43 behind Ophelia Larder-Lee's 2
Ophelia Larder-Lee carries our GB attack into this Division B clash with North Macedonia, where the gap in individual form could prove decisive in the early stages. Larder-Lee has been the standout across recent outings, averaging 9 points and 2 assists with a 37 TIB Efficiency rating — work that sits comfortably above her opposite number. Vanja Milosavljevikj offers North Macedonia defensive intensity and secondary playmaking (1 APG), but her 23 rating and 7-point average suggest limited offensive firepower to trouble our backline. The matchup hinges on whether Great Britain can sustain pressure through Larder-Lee's handling and scoring touch, or whether North Macedonia find rhythm early through Milosavljevikj's halfcourt defence. Our GB have the superior individual talent on the wing; execution in transition and transition defence will determine whether that translates to scoreboard advantage. Tip-off in three hours. Watch it live.
