Chapter 874: Compete for the first place in the group

"Is there still a live broadcast of handstand and a daily fifth-gear electric fan? Hurry out and it's time to deliver on your promises! ”

"Sent!||▄█▔▉||(There are five electric fans written on the back)"

", 666, that's fine!"

"I suspect you're driving, and there's plenty of evidence to do so!"

"This American team is really good, they can't even beat the Chinese team! The weakest American team in history! ”

"No way, who calls the core is Durant."

"Durant: ??"

"Don't play question marks, 19 points, 8 of 12 shots, Don doesn't dare to play!"

"A showdown between a real superstar and a fake superstar."

"Michael Tang lives up to his name, a dozen five is not a dream, as long as the strength is strong enough!"

"Now we can make China the favourites for the gold medal! I'm looking forward to seeing Don win the gold medal now! ”

"After winning the MVP and NBA championships, and then winning the Olympic gold medal? What is this for? Apotheosize? ”

"Tsk! Don't dare to think! He is leading the Chinese team! I really did it, I think it's better than Jordan! ”

"The first man in basketball was born!"

……

After the match, the praise of Tang Tian and the Chinese team reached a peak on social media.

However, those who questioned the Chinese team at the beginning are still pouring cold water.

"Just lucky! Look at the three-point shooting percentage of the Chinese team, 11 of 21 shots! Can there be a second game? ”

"It's really blowing, who just lost to the Australian team on the field? Winning a game by luck is about to go to heaven? ”

"Look, after losing to France, these people are gone, and they still win the championship? Dream on! ”

……

There are as many praises as there are doubts, and for the Chinese team, this is a proof of their strength.

Six teams in a group, five games.

After beating the U.S. team in an upset, the Chinese team has a record of 3 wins and 1 loss in four games.

Before the start of the Olympic Games, qualifying is the most important goal of the Chinese team.

But so far, what they have to consider is not whether they can qualify from the group, but whether they can win the first place in the group.

The winner of Group A will play fourth in Group B, and will not meet the winner of Group B in the semi-finals.

This is the least difficult and most likely ranking to win the championship.

And they do have that opportunity.

Group A now has three teams with a record of 3 wins and 1 loss, with the exception of China, the remaining two teams are Australia and the United States.

China won against the United States and lost to Australia, and if Australia lost the last game and China won, they would have topped the group according to the head-to-head record.

Winning the American team and fighting for the first place in the group, these words that were completely impossible to link with the Chinese team before have all appeared this time.

As Chinese fans, this is their proudest moment.

Two days later, the final round of Group A group stage matches kicked off.

China takes on France, the United States takes on Serbia, and Australia and Brazil play each other.

Each of these three games is full of highlights.

Can the Chinese team continue its hot form in the last game to defeat France and win the top spot in Group A.

France currently have a 2-2 record and will have to give it their all if they are to progress to the quarter-finals.

The situation for the USA team has become dire after losing their last game, and if they lose to Serbia again, they will even be squeezed into third place!

Serbia are in a similar situation to France, who will have to win their last place in Group A and will have to win because of their previous defeat to France.

Australia's performance at this year's Olympics has been nothing short of impressive, and they have the same chance of topping their group as China.

If the U.S. loses and they win against Brazil, then according to the head-to-head record, even if China wins, they will be the top of the group.

Brazil is fighting for glory.

They are hosts without a win so far, and they need to win a battle of dignity for themselves in the last game.

Each team has their own reasons to win, and these three games are destined to be extremely intense.

On this day, the gymnasium has been high in attendance since the afternoon.

The match between the Chinese team and the French team started first.

After the opening, the Chinese team continued its excellent form in the previous game, hitting the outside line one after another.

The French team has an American-style style of play, and they have encountered similar selection difficulties as the American team.

They made a different choice than the U.S. team, they resolutely wrapped Tang Tian throughout the game, and as a result, the Chinese team's outside shooters played the best game of the Olympics.

They scored 42 points on 14-of-27 shooting from beyond the three-point line and on three-pointers alone.

At the end of the last game, some fans questioned that the Chinese team won the game by luck, and it was impossible to have the three-point performance of the last game.

As a result, the Chinese team slapped in the face in seconds.

The French team was frantically chasing points at the last moment under the leadership of Parker, but Tang Tian's stable performance at the last moment still allowed the Chinese team to retain the victory.

In the end, the Chinese team defeated the French team 81-76 and fixed the group stage record at 4 wins and 1 loss.

Tang Tian scored 25 points and 11 assists and got his first double-double in the Olympic Games.

This is also the first time that the Chinese team has defeated the French team in the Olympic Games.

However, with the experience of winning against the United States team before, fans are no longer surprised by this.

After all, this Chinese team is already one of the favorites to win gold this year in the eyes of many people.

The group stage has ended, but the Chinese team is not idle.

They watched the remaining two games in the same group in the evening.

They will be joined by France, who have just lost in the afternoon, and whether they can advance now depends on whether Serbia will win.

The match between the United States and Serbia started first, and the game was much more intense than expected.

Serbia got into the groove quickly in the opening kick-off and quickly took a double-digit lead.

In the case of elimination without winning, the potential in their bodies is fully stimulated.

Jokic also played at the top of his game with the Pelicans.

However, Durant on the U.S. side responded quickly, and the consecutive scoring made it impossible for the Serbian team to do anything.

The U.S. team quickly tied the score under Durant's leadership, but Serbia's rising star Bogdan Bogdanovic was quick to respond.

The scores of the two teams alternated and continued to play until the final minute, when the two teams were tied at 91.

Both teams each missed an offensive and defensive miss, and at the last moment, it was Durant who staged the death of the international arena.

He scored a three-pointer against Teodosic to help the U.S. win 94-91.

He finished the game with 33 points and 5 rebounds, playing a superstar performance.

This kind of performance also made fans certain one thing, Durant is still Durant, the big killer in the FIBA arena, he is only afraid of Tang Tian.

After the match, the French squad celebrated, and Serbia's defeat meant they had secured fourth place in Group A and progressed to the quarter-finals.

After the match between the United States and Serbia, the match between Australia and Brazil also began.

Brazil fought for glory, but the gap between them and Australia was too great, and in the end, Australia beat Brazil and handed the hosts to a complete defeat.

And just after this game, Group A has three teams with a record of 4 wins and 1 loss, and they have won and lost each other.

China wins the United States, the United States wins Australia, and Australia wins China.

In this way, to determine the final ranking, you can only look at the score ratio between each other, and determine the ranking of the three teams according to the size of the score and loss rate.
