Among them, Group A of Serbia, Argentin, Australia, and Angola qualified.

In Group B, the United States, Slovenia, Brazil and Croatia qualified.

Group C saw China, Turkey, Goose Ross and Greece qualify.

Group D Standing Pottery Bowl, Spain, New Zealand, France qualified.

In the 1/8 finals, Huaxia will usher in the first knockout opponent, the French team in Group D.

The French team is actually not weak, but Group D can be called the group of death, and the strength is too average.

France, with 3 wins and 2 losses, is ranked fourth in Group D, but the 2nd, 3rd and 4th places in Group D have the same number of points.

It's just that the French team has a low score, so they are in fourth place.

Therefore, before the game, the Chinese men's basketball team told the players not to be careless.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the match between Huaxia and the French team started!

The starting line-up for the French team is sports cars Tony Parker, Rodriguez, Batum, Petrus and Turiaf.

Turiaf, as Zhou Yang's teammate, met Zhou Yang in this way.

The starting lineup of the Chinese men's basketball team is Zhou Yang, Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue, Su Wei and Guo Ailian.

The starting five members of this French team are all NBA players, so the overall strength is definitely above that of China.

If you want to beat the French team, Huaxia can only use Zhou Yang's strong point to stimulate the potential of her teammates and play team basketball!

Jumping the ball in the middle circle, Turyaf grabbed the first wave of attacking possession for France.

Tony Parker dribbled past half court and immediately called for cover in the face of Guo Ailian's defense.

Petrus came out to block Guo Ailian, and the sports car stepped on the pulley and hit the penalty area.

Just as Parker was about to throw his shot, he suddenly found Zhou Yang appear in front of him.

Frightened, Parker quickly passed the ball out.

In the regular season last season, the Spurs and the Warriors played each other 4 times, and Zhou Yang destroyed Parker's throwing countless times, so as soon as he saw Zhou Yang, he was timid first.

Batum received a pass from Parker and made an open three-point shot.

Boom!

Bounce the basket out.

Su Wei jammed Turiaf, Yi Jianlian protected the rebound, and immediately threw it to Zhou Yang to launch a fast attack.

Although the Chinese counteroffensive was fast, the French retreat was not slow.

Petrus, Rodriguez and Parker quickly returned to the backcourt, and Huaxia could only fall into positional battles.

Huaxia's run-and-bomb tactics were not very effective in front of France.

Zhou Yang saw that the French team did not wrap himself up, and the opportunity was rare, so he immediately made a breakthrough.

He first changed direction, shook off Rodriguez, and then accelerated to the vicinity of the paint field.

At the moment when the opponent's defense line contracted, Zhou Yang passed the ball directly to Sun Yue in the bottom corner without looking at the pass!

Since Sun Yue was cut in that game, he has been ashamed and brave, and he has practiced shooting for an hour every day.

So his shot was much more stable.

After receiving Zhou Yang's pass, Sun Yue calmly shot, huh!

The Chinese men's basketball team took the lead and scored 3 points!

After scoring the goal, Sun Yue was the first to rush to Zhou Yang and high-five him.

He was very grateful to Zhou Yang, because in the game against Goose Rose, he was cut in a row and made poor free throws, almost allowing Goose Rose to reverse.

So Sun Yue blamed himself very much after the game.

But Zhou Yang encouraged him and inspired him with his college story of himself and Curry.

Although Sun Yue has a somewhat arrogant personality, he is generally a good boy.

He listened to Zhou Yang's teachings, practiced by himself, and finally made progress.

The French team is not flustered, after all, the starting five are all NBA players and have seen the world.

Tony Parker dribbled to the paint area again, dodged Zhou Yang, and hit a mid-range shot.

The sports car is so nimble and experienced that you won't miss out on the slightest shot.

3:2, Huaxia leads.

Zhou Yang let Guo Ailan dribble and advance to the front court, while he himself slowly walked around the sideline.

Yi Jianlian stepped forward to block Parker, and Guo Ailian broke through to the bottom line.

Petrus immediately stepped forward to help defend, but Guo Ai turned around and passed Petrus!

This was a great achievement.

There were many Chinese fans at the scene, and they applauded and shouted.

Past Petrus, Guo Ai went to the basket, and under the defense of the opponent's center Turiaf, he hit the ground and passed to Su Wei on the other side of the basket!

Su Wei did not miss the opportunity to pass in seconds, scored a violent deduction, and succeeded in eating cakes!

Zhou Yang is very happy, happier than he scored his own goal, Guo Ailian's progress is also great, the breakthrough is very sharp, and he is not as frizzy as before.

5:2, Huaxia continued to lead.

The French team attacked, this time Petrus received Batum's pass, hit the board and scored, and the score came to 5:4!

In the first half of the first quarter, both sides played their own characteristics, and the score alternately rose and was intense.

Zhou Yang only made 1 shot and scored 2 points, but his teammates performed well, which made Zhou Yang very pleased.

Deng Huade saw it in his eyes and admired Zhou Yang very much.

He knows very well in his heart that the fact that the Chinese players can now be twisted into a rope is all due to Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang attaches great importance to the tactical coordination of the whole team, as well as the connection between each other.

Before Zhou Yang joined the national team, Deng Huade found that the Chinese players were all stuffy gourds, and there was little communication in the game, and everyone played their own games.

There is very little contact with other players other than teammates from the same club.

You know, basketball is a team sport, and it is definitely not okay to not communicate enough.

After Zhou Yang came, he encouraged his teammates to communicate more, gesture frequently, and keep shouting.

The purpose of shouting is not only to remind teammates, but also to encourage teammates and improve concentration.

These details are very important to the team.

The effect was also felt in the competition.

The first quarter played 7 minutes and 16 seconds, and the score of the two sides was 17:15, and France led.

Zhou Yang still only scored 2 points, because he made 1 shot.

Both sides began to make substitutions one after another, but Zhou Yang did not take a break.

For a strong team like France, Zhou Yang can't be careless at all, and must go all out.

Zhou Yang took the substitute and played against the French substitute and achieved a big advantage.

After the first quarter, the score of the two sides was 29:26, and Huaxia overtook by 3 points!

This is a knockout game, and neither side has a chance to make mistakes, so the coach is very cautious and makes adjustments or calls a timeout whenever there is a disadvantage.

In the second half of the first quarter, Zhou Yang increased his shots, shooting 4 of 5 and scoring 11 points in the first quarter.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Zhou Yang rested off the court and played as a substitute.

Maybe it was because he saw Zhou Yang playing the whole first quarter, it was too hard, so the bench lineup was very hard.

Wang is probably not young, and this time he was able to participate in the World Championships, and he also worked hard to serve the country.

So after he came on the field, he frequently launched attacks in the penalty area, causing a lot of trouble for the French domestic line.

Although Turyaf is an NBA player, his steps are not generally flexible, and he is played around.

And Wang Shipeng, who is on the outside, has the demeanor of a general.
