Great atmosphere in the Adolfo Pineda Gymnasium in the capital for the duel between El Salvador and Cuba, a key match in the dreams of being able to advance to the next stage towards the FIBA Basketball World Cup.
The national team and the islanders fell on the first day, against Costa Rica and the Bahamas, respectively, and whoever loses today will be almost eliminated from the contest, in which the Bahamas have a foot and a half in the next stage after beating Costa Rica, by beating 75-51, in a match in which the Central Americans suffered from the start.

With this result, the Bahamas leads the classification to the next stage with 4 units, followed by 3 from Costa Rica, while both Cuba and the Selecta accumulate 1 for the defeat on Friday.
With the “Dance Cam”, the people, who did not attend in a large percentage as expected for an international duel of this type, were moved, and those who were there from early applauded the national team when it came out to warm up early.

All ready for the game. The national team heats up.
The Cuban team only has 7 players of the 9 it brought since one tested positive for Covid-19 in the PCR tests carried out prior to the start of the tournament, while another was in direct contact with it, so they are not authorized to dispute the matches.
