Basketball.-Spain survives Finland and gets into the semifinals after a prodigious second half

MADRID, 13 (EUROPA PRESS)

The Spanish national team scored 57 points in a spectacular second half in which Willy Hernangómez’s 27 points were the beacon for Sergio Scariolo’s team. The defensive problems of the first half were resolved after passing through the changing rooms and a good example of this are the five steals achieved by Rudy Fernández, key in the final stretch of the game from the triple line.

Without needing the brilliance of Lorenzo Brown as in the match against Lithuania, both the point guard and Darío Brizuela, Juancho Hernangómez and Rudy Fernández were also in double figures. The triumph of the Spanish team already qualifies them for the fight for the medals, in a match that they will play on Friday the 16th against the winner of Greece – Germany.
