Volleyball: Turkish women with their first European Championship title
Türkiye is European champion in women’s volleyball for the first time. The Turkish team won the exciting final match over Serbia 3-2 (27:25, 21:25, 25:22, 22:25, 15:13) in Brussels, thus remaining unbeaten in the finals held in four countries.

Basketball: Defending champion Spain is already out
Spain must return to its homeland early to participate in the Basketball World Cup in Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines. Surprisingly, the defending champion missed out on qualifying to the quarter-finals in the intermediate round. The 2019 world champion and 2022 European champion lost to Canada by a score of 85:88 in the decisive match to advance, although it was still ahead by 48:38 in the first half. The Canadiens, led by NBA star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, moved into the quarterfinals as the top team in their group. They will meet Slovenia there on Wednesday. The other three quarter-finals are Italy-USA, Serbia-Lithuania and Germany-Latvia. The USA surprisingly lost 101:104 to Lithuania and lost the group win.
