Spain is the first semi-finalist of the European Basketball Championship. They were better than Finland in the 1/4 final match in Berlin – 100:90.
This is the 11th semi-final of the Eurobasket for the Spanish basketball team, and they reached it with a lot of problems, especially in the first half.
The Finns were in an extremely good shooting mood in the first two quarters. It was with a three-point shot that the Finns dictated the rhythm, and at the beginning of the second quarter they had an excess of 15 points (37:22).
Spain struggled, but managed to reduce the deficit to nine points by halftime (52:43).
After a long rest, everything went well for the Spanish team.
The shot for three began to serve “fury” (9/17 in the second half), while he completely betrayed Finland (2/9), which paved the way for the Spanish national team to the semi-finals.
Sergio Scariol’s team was pulling the strings of the game, and finally broke the match when it reached an eight-point lead three minutes before the end of the match.
The most effective in the victory of the Spanish national team were Willy Hernangomez for 27, and his brother Juancho for 15.
Markkanen scored 28 and Jantunen scored 18 in the Finnish national team.
For the final, Spain will play against the better team from the match between Greece and Germany.
