- Gilas Pilipinas vs Serbia

- Serbia defeated Gilas Pilipinas, 126 – 67

- September 2, 2019 at Foshan, China
- "What can I say? Tough loss is always a tough loss," Sasha Djordjevic said of the
game. "It depends how you're going to react," he added.
- Djordjevic said that the Philippine team "showed some talent, some quickness."
- With Denver's All-Star center Nikola Jokic leading the way, Serbia ramped up the
intensity in the second quarter to turn what had been a relatively slim 39-28 lead
into a massive 62-35 advantage at the half. The Philippines had no answer,
particularly on the defensive end, as Serbia shot a blistering 75% from the field in
the game.
- "But obviously," he added, "you're missing quality." This, he said, was evident in
their games against Italy and Serbia.
- Philippines will be facing Angola, their last opponent for the FIBA World Cup on
September 5, 2019.
