Armenian national basketball team won over Albania at 84-65 on Sunday in the regular round of pre-qualifier basketball match for the FIBA EuroBasket 2021.

National Olympic Committee reports that our team dominated the game in all four quarters. The game was quite important for us as it brought the team to the top of the group.

According to the source, Allan Hess was named the man of the match with 21 points. Armenia will face Denmark in the last pre-qualifier game set on June 28.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
