The Czech Republic brushed aside Israel on Saturday night for their second victory in as many games.

Lucie Blahuskova poured in 21 points, grabbed six rebounds and had five assists as the Czechs prevailed against another weak side in Group, having hammered Greece on opening day on Friday.

The Czechs grabbed a stranglehold on the match in the second quarter when they extended their five-point advantage to 14 (53-39).

The result isn't a surprise, with Israel expected to struggle in this tournament. They were hammered by France in their opening game.

Life gets a little bit harder for the winner of this game, however. On Sunday, the Czechs take on Serbia & Montenegro.

Israel, meanwhile, may have their best chance off getting a win in this tournament when they take on hosts Greece.
