The Serbo-Montenegrins won all four quarters and were never seriously troubled by the French.

The decisive run, which confirmed the superiority of Zeljko Vukicevic's team, came in the third quarter when they extended their lead from 42-40 to 51-40.

France never threatened the rest of the way as they struggled to contain guard Miljana Musovic, who top scored for the winners with 26 points.

Maja Miljkovic chipped in with 16 to lead a balanced attack which featured four players in double figures.

Anne-Sophie Raymonde Pagnier poured in 19 for the French but it wasn't enough.
