Chapter 789
After the two semi-finals, this World Cup has come to an end.Most of the competitions have been decided, and only the finals and the third and fourth qualifying matches are still unresolved.However, this result will not make everyone wait too long.After the players rested for a day, the final match began.

September 9, BJ Wukesong Stadium.

The first game to be played was the duel between the Australian men's basketball team defeated by the Chinese men's basketball team and the French men's basketball team defeated by the Argentine men's basketball team.These two teams are the teams that were expected to reach the finals before the semifinals, but now they can only compete for the last medal with great frustration.It can only be said that the world is impermanent!However, the big guys are not completely wrong. After all, the Australian men's basketball team and the French men's basketball team will eventually have a showdown.

Interestingly, in the final stage of the World Cup, whether it is the two teams in the final or the two teams in the third and fourth qualifying matches, they are all old opponents in the previous group stage.

In the second round of the Group L match of the group stage, the Australian men's basketball team and the French men's basketball team had a very exciting duel.To say that these two teams are really destined.I met twice in one international big name. The core players of the team, Gobert and Ingles, are still teammates of the same NBA team. The mutual understanding can be said to be very deep.This is also an important reason why everyone expects these two teams to meet in the finals.

Although, in the end, the Australian men's basketball team and the French men's basketball team did not advance to the final as they did in the group stage, but their performance in the third and fourth qualifying matches was not inferior to the two teams in the final .

In fact, throughout the game, the Australian men's basketball team had a better chance of winning.Mills gave the team the lead, and then Baynes and Colo's three-pointers helped the Australian men's basketball team take the lead.

In the second quarter, both sides strengthened their defense and rebounded, so that they did not score for a long time.Fournier took the lead in breaking the scoring drought on the field, and used precise three-pointers and free throws to help the team temporarily get out of trouble.However, the Australians quickly found their own offensive state.Facing his teammates, Ingles was relentless and scored two three-pointers in a row to stabilize the situation of the game.

The two teams seem to be playing this game as the finals.Their defense is very oppressive, and they are always allowing the opponent to go out and make turnovers, and then seize these opportunities to score.The Australian men's basketball team was the better side, so they started the second half with a 9-point advantage.This point difference does not seem to be much, but when compared with the scores of the two sides in the first half, it is really a big lead.

The biggest point difference in the game is still played by the Australian men's basketball team.After they came back from the intermission, they played an extremely strong offensive wave, directly extending the lead to 15 points.

At that time, everyone decided that the French men's basketball team was finished.They played very badly in the first half of the third quarter. Gobert seemed to be in the state of the game against the Argentine men's basketball team again. Big troubles can't prevent the impact of Baynes and Mills.Fournier still played very aggressively, but his touch became extremely poor, and he failed to score several shots.

Just when the game was about to be thrown into garbage time by the Australian men's basketball team, the French men's basketball team seemed to wake up suddenly.The first to stand up was Batum, this guy known as "French Pippen". Although he played worse and worse in the NBA, he performed well on the stage of the World Cup.Just when the French men's basketball team was about to fall off a cliff, he dropped the breath with a dunk.Subsequently, Fournier made a goal from outside the three-point line, and Batum also made a three-pointer.Under the cooperation of the two, the French men's basketball team had a small climax of 8:0. While the score was approaching, it also shocked the Australian men's basketball team in a cold sweat.

After returning from the timeout, Ingles broke through from the right elbow to the basket and scored a goal, helping the Australian men's basketball team stabilize the situation.However, De Colo, who is not known to many people, broke out suddenly. He scored 4 points in a row with sudden shots, leading the French men's basketball team to play a wave of 8:2 offensive, chasing the point difference to 43:44, only 1 behind point.

At this time, the situation of the game suddenly changed.The French men's basketball team saw the hope of winning, they played more aggressively, and wanted to take advantage of the momentum to overtake the score.However, the Australian men's basketball team is not willing to see this happen.The fight between the two sides was very fierce. Ingles had a big cut on his arm during the game, and blood flowed.At the critical moment, Mills stood up. He blocked De Colo's layup on the defensive end, then went out of the baseline to launch a counterattack, and hit a run from outside the right three-point line, widening the point difference to 4 points and helping Australia The men's basketball team once again controlled the situation of the game.

Just when everyone thought that this game would be decided at the last second like the two sides did in the group stage, of course, this is what everyone wants to see.But one man's runaway ruined it all.De Colo, who played well in the second half of the third quarter, ran away again!Perhaps because he was a bit upset when he was blocked by Mills late in the third quarter, De Colo was very aggressive at the beginning of the fourth quarter.He first scored 5 points with consecutive shots and penalties, helping the French men's basketball team to complete the lead in the score.Immediately afterwards, when Ingles missed a three-pointer, he retreated in time. After receiving Gobert's long pass, he made a three-pointer. He beat the Australian men's basketball team 8:0 alone, helping The French men's basketball team completed a gorgeous turn from 4 points behind to 4 points ahead.With the Australian players struggling to catch up, the point difference was once narrowed to 1 point.But at the critical moment, it was De Colo who stole the ball from Bogut again, and then found Albig in a good position in the crowd. The latter scored a three-pointer to help the French men's basketball team regain stability.

In the end, the Australian men's basketball team failed to take the lead again and could only regrettably lose the last medal of this World Cup.This is already the fourth time they have won the fourth place in an international competition!In fact, the strength of the Australian men's basketball team is not bad, enough to compete for a medal.But when they stood in front of the podium, they were always short of luck.Of course, the difference may also be strength.
