Israel's national team has advanced to the quarter-finals of the U19 World Cup. In its first-ever appearance in the tournament, the team secured its fourth consecutive victory, defeating Cameroon 86:82 in the knockout stage. Omer Meir scored 33 points during the game – a record in the current championship. Israel will play Slovenia in the quarter-finals on Friday, a team they lost to last summer in the third-place match at the European Championship.
