Germany women beat South Korea women 94-56 in the Basketball World Cup on 8 September 2026. The hosts ran out comfortable winners in their opening group fixture. By then, the result had already told its own story.
Germany controlled the tempo from the opening tip. They shot 31 from 67 field goals and converted 25 of 27 free throws. And here's the thing — they only committed five turnovers all game. South Korea, by contrast, lost possession fourteen times.
The statistics tell a clear tale of dominance. Germany collected 43 rebounds to South Korea's 24, with 35 defensive stops. They also recorded four blocks and seven steals. The visitors managed zero blocks and just five steals of their own.
South Korea's shooting was the real issue. They hit 23 of 65 field goals and only three of four free throws. To be fair, they did connect on seven of 27 three-point attempts, but that wasn't enough to keep them in the contest.
The win moves Germany up the standings after a mixed run. They had beaten Mali 83-58 and Japan 74-58 but lost to Spain 53-83 and Turkey 62-63 recently. South Korea, meanwhile, dropped to another defeat after losing to Hungary 73-82 and France 69-95.
