Great Britain edged Slovakia 59–56 in a see-saw contest that stayed within a possession for the final two minutes. Thirteen lead changes and six ties meant neither side could build daylight; Slovakia surged clear early in the second quarter on an 8–0 run to lead 22–14, but our GB response was sharper. A 19–12 third quarter put Great Britain up by ten (53–43), only for Slovakia to claw back to within a single point late. The final frame turned into a nervy affair—both teams traded baskets down the stretch, with Great Britain holding nerve when it mattered. Isey Guttormsdottir-Frost anchored the win with 22 points and 11 rebounds on 8/20 shooting, her double-double the backbone of our attack. Tiarna Chambers-Desmond scrapped hard on the glass with 12 boards despite an off night from the field (1/11), whilst Bo Guttormsdottir Frost chipped in 7 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists. Slovakia's Michaela Safarikova led the losers with 14 points, though the hosts couldn't find rhythm—only 5/26 combined from three-point range. Our GB side host Denmark on Wednesday. Another tight fixture awaits.
