Copyright (c) 2021 International Basketball Federation
The 2021 EuroBasket Women was the 38th edition of the European Women's Basketball Championship, the continent's largest women's basketball competition sanctioned by FIBA Europe. Being co-hosted by France and Spain between 17 and 27 June 2021, the event marked the third time that it was staged by multiple countries more than one.
It was also served as part of European qualification for the 2022 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup in Australia, with the top six teams advancing to the qualifying tournaments.
The final was initially planned to be held at the AccorHotels Arena in Paris, but following important changes, the game was moved to the Pavelló Municipal Font de San Lluís, in Valencia, Spain. FIBA Europe didn't disclose an exact reason for the switch, given that they approved the change at a Board meeting in May 2020.
In the said final, Serbia, who had reached the championship match with a flawless 6-0 record, have won their second EuroBasket title after prevailing 63–54 over co-hosts France.
