Spain enters Eurobasket 2022 finals

Havana, September 17 (RHC)-- The Spanish national team, led by point guard Lorenzo Brown with 29 points, beat Germany 96-91 to enter Sunday's final of Eurobasket 2022.

Sergio Scariolo's charges came back from 10-point deficits several times and will compete for the gold against a powerful France, holders of the 2009, 2011 and 2015 editions, which swept Poland in the first semifinal 54-95.

The red team pressed in the last quarter to turn the game around with a defensive work in the back, as it did in the round of 16 and quarterfinals against Lithuania and Finland.

From the 33rd minute, Alberto Diaz infected the rest of the quintet and left the rivals without scoring for almost four minutes to take control with a resounding partial 0-13 (77-83).

Germany, encouraged by Dennis Schroeder (30 units), tried the home game with three-pointers, but the Iberian players never failed to close from the free throw line.

Brown, a naturalized American citizen of Spain, stood out most in the last quarter, when he converted the key baskets in the most difficult moments.

Whatever the final result of the Hispanics, the performance draws one of the most successful championships of the national team in its history, specialists warn, perhaps to take the pressure off before a complicated commitment.

From the Gauls, silver medalists at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the victory achieved at the 2019 World Cup in China still resonates, where they defeated in the Quarterfinals round the powerful and always favorite United States team with its star players of the National Basketball Association.
