Although Olympic football is only a gold medal even if it wins the final championship, this gold medal or medal is undoubtedly much more valuable than some other sports, after all, football is still the current number one sport in the world, even if Olympic football is not too important in some football powers.

The Olympic team did not celebrate particularly warmly after the game, even though they have now guaranteed a silver medal, but there is still a final to play, and the opponent of the final, the Cameroon Olympic team, does not seem to be particularly difficult to deal with, so the team's goal now is to prepare well for the final, for this reason, the national Olympic team has to announce that the next few days will be closed training, after all, there are countless media waiting to interview the players of the national Olympic team, in this case, it will cause a lot of interference in the preparation.

However, other players have conducted closed training, but Liu Han has come to the men's basketball team to prepare for the men's basketball quarterfinals to be held on September 28.

The men's basketball team is also very smooth this time, although they were divided into Group A, where each team is relatively strong, but with the leadership of Liu Han and the team's own struggle, they still steadily advanced to the quarterfinals as the fourth in the group, and the opponent of the Chinese men's basketball team in the quarterfinals will be the first Spanish team in Group B.

I have to admit that the Spaniards are very good at team ball games, which is probably related to the topography and weather of their country, the Iberian Peninsula is the Atlantic Ocean on the left and the Mediterranean Sea on the right, the Pyrenees block the cold air from the south, affected by the subtropical high pressure, the weather in Spain is dry and rainless, which is very suitable for outdoor sports, coupled with the enthusiasm and thrill-seeking nature of the Spaniards (is the Running of the Bulls exciting?). Pure death), which makes them more fond of all kinds of outdoor sports.

In this Sydney Olympics, Spanish football reached the semifinals, although it finally fell at the feet of African teams again, but their strength is still very strong, and in the basketball game, the Spanish men's basketball team also ranked first in the group with five wins.

In the face of strong opponents, although the Chinese men's basketball team can be said to have completed the goal of this Olympic Games, the men's basketball team is still looking forward to better results.

Liu Han will face a tough challenge in the final days of the Games, including the football finals and the next games in basketball, if the Chinese men's basketball team makes it all the way to the finals, it means that Liu Han will have a fierce game every day for the last four days, which will be a major physical challenge for Liu Han.

However, these are not in the scope of Liu Han's consideration at the moment, and all he has to do now is to discuss with the whole team how to deal with the Spanish team.

On September 28, the quarterfinals of the men's basketball team of the Sydney Olympics officially began.

The match between China and Spain was scheduled for 4 p.m.

This year's Spanish men's basketball team is basically dominated by young players, the average age of the men's basketball team in this Olympic Games is the youngest, in addition to some veteran substitutes, the starting five in addition to Gabajosa, who was born in 1977, the other four are all post-80s players, but these young players have shown their strong strength in this Olympic Games.

The core of the Spanish team is Pau Gasol on the inside, a big man who is two meters and three meters tall with very solid basic skills and gorgeous offensive skills, and his passing and tactical awareness are also very good, and he currently plays for Real Madrid, a giant team in the Spanish Basketball League.

In addition to having pillars on the inside, this year's Spanish men's basketball team also has a lot of good players on the outside, such as Gabajosa, who just joined the Toronto Raptors before the Olympics and is very good.

After Liu Han returned to the lineup, Jiang Xinquan immediately put him in the point guard position, which is the weakest position in the men's basketball team, but now with Liu Han, it will be the most threatening position for the team.

The game officially began, Yao Min jumped the ball to defeat Pau Gasol, and the opponent's bounce was not outstanding.

Liu Han grabbed the ball and slowly advanced, after all, the Chinese team's tactics are still based on playing inside.

Liu Han took the ball to the front court and hoisted the ball into the hands of Wang Zhizhi on the inside, Wang Zhizhi took the ball to Paul Gasol, Wang Zhizhi took the ball and tried to step and then dribbled back and hit two points, Pau Gasol was helpless in the face of Wang Zhizhi's skillful footsteps.

The Spanish coach put Pau Gasol in the power forward position, while the blue-collar center Rodriguez was responsible for defending Yao Min.

The Chinese team started the offense smoothly, and after experiencing the discomfort of the first few games of the group stage, the effect of the men's basketball team's pre-game joint practice with the Lakers gradually showed, and they were no longer afraid of confrontation.

The Spanish team is a little chaotic in the attack, after all, it is a team dominated by young players, originally they thought that the Chinese team would be easier to deal with, but they didn't expect that the current Chinese team is not the same as before, the outside defense is strict and active, abandoning the joint defense of the anti-breakthrough and not the anti-shooting The Chinese team has caused a lot of trouble to the Spanish team.

The Chinese team quickly extended their lead, Liu Han didn't even make much of a move, and the Chinese team on the inside completely exploded Spain, and the young Pau Gasol and the equally young blue-collar center Rodriguez looked a little flustered against the experienced Wang Zhizhi and the fearless Yao Min.

In the fourth minute of the game, the Chinese team stopped the Spanish team 9-2.

The relaxed pace of the game made the Chinese players a little incredulous, they could not imagine how such a Spanish team could become the first in Group B.

However, Spain recovered after calling the first timeout, and as soon as the timeout returned, Gabajosa hit a three-pointer from the outside of the defense of Li Nan.

The Chinese team is still playing inside attack, but the Spanish team strengthened the inside after the pause, they used 23 joint defense positions, let the Chinese team's outside players shoot, and wrapped the Chinese team's inside line, this sudden change made Yao Min and Wang Zhizhi's shooting rate began to decline.

Liu Han still did not increase his shots, but kept passing the ball to his teammates, but after the timeout, the Chinese team continued to miss the vacant position, and Li Nan and Hu Weidong both missed the ball.

Two minutes later, the Spanish team tied the score at 12-11, only one point behind the Chinese team, Jiang Xinquan did not dare to be careless, and immediately called a timeout. (To be continued.) )
