Chapter 379 Sudden Arrival, Remnant Formation Meets the Enemy

The Croatian team did not give up so easily, and they recovered to 8 points in the second half of the fourth quarter.

However, with one and a half minutes left, Li Chengming shot a cold arrow from outside the three-point line, turned around and defended Croatia's key attack, which also killed the final suspense of the game.

At the end of the game, the Huaguo men's basketball team defeated the Croatian men's basketball team 101:92, achieved the first elimination victory in their Olympic history, and officially advanced to the semi-finals.

李成名出战31分钟，17投11中，罚球10中8，砍下32分10篮板5助攻；大姚28分钟得到17分12篮板3盖帽，大郅三分球5中3，得到11分，阿联12分2抢断。

"The men's basketball team broke through history, and we finally did it!"

The post-match commentary and the fans also breathed a sigh of relief. Next, they have the same goal, which is to win medals and become the "top three in the world".

After the game, the fans stayed together for a long time, and every next breakthrough will be a brand new history.

The men's basketball team will also rest, waiting for their next semi-final opponent to be determined.

After ten o'clock in the evening that day, all the matches in the knockout round had ended, and after four games, the last four winners of the semi-finals were determined.

Just as most people expected before the game, only Lithuania was left in Group A, and the top three in Group B all defeated their opponents and successfully advanced.

The most tragic of these is the match between Spain and Argentina, which can also be regarded as the closest match.

The two teams played until the last second to decide the winner. In the end, the Spanish team narrowly won by 2 points. The Argentine team also had to face this, which may be their worst result in recent years.

The U.S. team had the easiest game, because the difference in strength was too great, and it was not enough for them to play.

Even in the eyes of many people, from the group stage to the present, the biggest threat to them was actually the first game against the Huaguo men's basketball team.

That time, it really almost capsized in the gutter, and finally turned over by relying on hard power.

But if the Huaguo men's basketball team can meet them again in the future, it is hard to say what will happen.

On the other side, Greece actually had a chance to overturn the Lithuanian team and achieve the achievement of advancing to the group. The two teams were almost tied in the first three quarters. Unfortunately, the Greek team had a rotation problem in the fourth quarter, and Lithuania seized the opportunity to play a wave of offensive.

Afterwards, the Greek team failed to launch a counterattack and could only be eliminated.

At this time, the problem that had to be faced appeared, how should the three teams in the same group arrange?

In the end, FIBA ​​made a decision. The two groups will face each other first. At the same time, the Huaguo men's basketball team and the Spanish team will start a second battle in the semi-finals and semi-finals.

For this result, in theory, it is already relatively friendly to the men's basketball team.

If the men's basketball team is allowed to play Lithuania, they may have a chance to win, but Spain may have an opinion. Why can't I play Lithuania?

And let Spain play, and the men's basketball team will face the US team from the beginning, which is definitely not good.

Lithuania may be dissatisfied with the current situation, but none of the three opponents is a soft persimmon for them. After losing the third place in the United States, they will face another loser. Maybe they still have a chance to compete for No.3.

Of course, the most important thing is that the three of them have no opinion. What else do you want to say in Lithuania?
almost got it...

"How will the men's basketball team deal with Spain in the semi-finals?"

The last time the men's basketball team defeated Spain in the group stage, it seemed that it was quite easy to win.

But for this rematch, even Li Chengming didn't think he was too optimistic. His historical record doesn't count when the outcome of a game is determined. On the contrary, the Spanish team is more experienced, and they seem to have more advantages in terms of body and shooting. Advantage.

If the two strongest points of the two teams, Li Chengming and Dajia, are removed, the rest of the men's basketball team will definitely not be able to match Spain, and the only strong point, Yao, can hardly change the situation of the game by himself.

So it's all about seeing what Li Chengming can do at that time. If Dajia is blown up, there will be another dozen.

Before the game, the men's basketball team also seemed to be very low-key about this game. Even Li Chengming didn't stand up and say anything.

But it's not that he didn't dare to say it at this time, but he didn't focus on the verbal battle, because after the match against Croatia, Dayao detected that his left foot injury seemed to be repeated.

According to reviewing the video and Dayao's own feelings, the doctor judged that it was likely that he was stepped on by the opponent under the basket when he was fighting for rebounds in the first half of the third quarter of the game. After that I feel uncomfortable.

"The question now is, should this matter explode?"

This question silenced the team leader, the coaching staff and all the players. In fact, it was tantamount to asking whether or not Dayao should be injured in the next game.

"No!" Li Chengming was the first to stand up and express his objection. Looking at Dayao, who lowered his head and tightened his brows, he said in a low voice under the eyes of everyone: "Brother Yao was reimbursed for the season in February. At that time, the doctors in the United States said It is best for him to rest for a year. Apart from treatment, the more important thing is to recuperate and avoid recurrence.

"In order to participate in this Olympic Games, Brother Yao stopped training for only six months, followed by the national team training, and then the competition. I think this is fundamentally due to the accumulation of fatigue during this period, which led to such a result ..."

These words left the team leader and the two blue shoes leaders present speechless. They looked embarrassed, as if they wanted to open their mouths to explain their difficulties to Li Chengming, a little comrade.

But in the end, he gave up. After all, Li Chengming is not a big Yao, nor did he grow up under the system of the domestic sports bureau. He didn't have any "cultivation" from them.

Coupled with Li Chengming's tough grades, now the men's basketball team can't do without him rather than him, so he can turn around and negotiate terms with the blue shoes in his personal capacity.

They can bind Dayao with emotions and interests, but these will not work for Li Chengming.

Is it possible to restrict entry to him, or pour some dirty water on him?
Seeing that they can further create history now, they are not willing to make a fool of themselves at this time.

"I've decided, I'll play in the next match!" Dayao stood up slowly, with a firm expression on Guozi's face.

This is his role as the current leader of the men's basketball team. Although Li Chengming has outstanding strength and leadership skills, his sense of belonging to the national team is still not good to be honest.

At least if he was transferred to Dayao at this time, it would be impossible for him to make such a choice.

How should I put it, this is not the final after all, nor is it the final bronze medal match. If there is a way out, there will be a fluke mentality.

Dayao's reluctance to turn back is also a comprehensive effect of many aspects.

"No! Brother Yao, take good care of your injuries. If you are unwilling to announce the news to the public, then I will tell you that it will be my responsibility. Including the next two games, the outcome will be on my shoulders. "

Li Chengming said, and added lightly: "Victory is very important, but Brother Yao still has a long career, I don't want him to leave any hidden dangers because of this game. How good it will be, but in the next national team game, if Brother Yao is unable to play due to this injury, I think that is why no one can afford this responsibility, right?"

Some people may want to say "then there is still you", but they all know Li Chengming's character now, even if they have thoughts in their hearts, they will not stand up and touch his bad luck at this time.

Dayao watched from the sidelines and his heart was shocked, but finally decided to keep silent.

He wants to play, but he can't live up to Li Chengming's kindness, not to mention what Li Chengming said may really make sense.
