After the timeout, the game continues.

After all, Serbia is one of the world's top players, and they quickly began to stabilize their morale through Jokic and Marjanovic's inside attack, scoring consecutive points.

The Chinese team, under the leadership of Zhou Si, began to rely on his strong personal ability and the tenacious scoring of other players to dominate the score.

Although the Chinese team has maintained a lead, it has never been able to defeat Serbia in one breath.

The score difference also hovers between 9 points and 14 points!

On the sidelines, the Serbian coach was relieved!

What the hell if the Chinese team keeps hitting every shot like it did in the opening game!

The game remained deadlocked for a quarter and a half. After that, the Chinese men's basketball team suddenly broke out and scored 6 three-pointers in succession under the leadership of Zhou Si. Even the Serbian men's basketball players responded very well with three three-pointers in the final period.

Performance, they were still 15 points behind the Chinese team at the end of the first half.

During the halftime break, Zhou Sizai was blown away again.

"The Devil played really well today and his passing was so cool!"

"Haha, do you think the Demon God won't be organized if he doesn't control the ball?

So naive!”

"11 assists, 3 steals and 4 blocks in the half, just ask who else is there!"

"Actually, I think Serbia is also very good. After digging a big hole at the beginning, they only lost by 6 points...

Most teams would have collapsed long ago when faced with such an impact from the Chinese team!"

"Yes, I'm still a little worried about the physical strength of the Chinese team. They defended so fiercely at the beginning, can they really hold on later?"

"Yes... these men's basketball players are already great, but I don't know if their physical strength can keep up with their will..."

"I believe our men's basketball players can win this battle!"

"Yes, I love it!

The two teams played really beautifully, passing the ball in a wide range and having strong physical confrontation, it was really beautiful!”

The two sides continued to stalemate in the second half. Although Serbia had been lagging behind, they never gave up their desire to reverse the situation, and the score remained stalemate!

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, as the Chinese team's physical strength declined, Serbia felt that it had seized the opportunity to score a wave of points and narrow the point difference!

They once narrowed the point difference to single digits and saw hope of winning.

But at the last moment, Zhou Si stood up again and scored 10 points in a row to stop the Serbian team at the most critical moment!

At this time, the score difference has returned to 16 points!

In the end, the Serbian team failed to complete the reversal. The Chinese team defeated Serbia 98-88 and took the lead in advancing to the World Cup semi-finals.

At the scene, the fans cheered endlessly.

In the past, they always criticized the Chinese men's basketball team as "A Dou who can't afford it." In recent years, the Chinese team has really made them more and more proud!

In the past, Chinese fans would have never dared to think about relying on the whole team to fight back and forth against European hegemons like Serbia!

Moreover, this victory over Serbia did not surprise Chinese fans because, having witnessed the whole process, they knew that it was done by gritted teeth of the Chinese men's basketball players.

Perhaps the overall strength is still slightly inferior, but their tenacious will and Zhou Si's sea-fixing needle allowed them to completely close the gap.

During the handshake ceremony after the game, Jokic looked frustrated.

He really thought they had hope of defeating the Chinese team.

Then, while shaking hands with the Chinese men's basketball team members, Jokic praised the performance of each of them.

Today is really worth it for them!

When shaking hands and hugging Zhou Si, Teacher Yue specifically mentioned,

"Help us take revenge!

Don’t fall down early!”

Zhou Si habitually touched Jokic's soft belly and said,

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you get revenge."

What Jokic said was actually not groundless.

Because the Chinese team’s next opponent in the semifinals will be the winner between the United States and France!

To avenge them, the Chinese team must enter the finals first!

On the Internet, fans also unanimously praised the men's basketball team.

“Before the game, I was worried that even if we beat Serbia, it would be extremely difficult to play the United States. After this game, I am really full of confidence in our men’s basketball players!

In the next game, even if we play the United States, I feel we have a good chance of winning."

"Yes, today's interview really relieved me.

So journalists all deserve our title!

To beat Serbia, which previously ranked first in terms of strength, like this, the men's basketball players are really doing a great job!"

"Let me show off the Demon God. He was really arrogant today!"

"Haha, I just saw that many foreign tennis fans are envious that we have such a good men's basketball team!

We Chinese fans are so happy!"

"Serbia, the favorite to win the championship, was sent home early by us. The men's basketball players are awesome!"

…

When netizens blasted the men's basketball players, they did not take a break, but stayed at the scene to watch the game between Spain and Argentina.

This game was exactly what most experts and fans thought before the game. Spain would win without any doubt.

One is the European hegemon and the other is the South American king. These two teams are already old rivals in the international arena.

There was no need to set the stage after the opening, as the two sides directly engaged in a life-and-death battle.

The Spanish side, led by the ‘golden boy’ Rubio, entered the state first and got off to a fantastic start of 7-0.

Then, they continued to fire on all cylinders and quickly established a double-digit lead.

Argentina slowly came into its own, especially after wonderkid Campazzo scored 8 points in a row to break the deadlock. Argentina relied on defensive counterattacks to catch up with the score, but Spain relied on its huge inside advantage to widen the gap again.

At the end of the first quarter, Spain had opened the point difference to 10 points.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Spain's Fernandez scored three consecutive points to continue to expand the lead, but Argentina was very tenacious and once again made many counterattacks to narrow the gap.

At halftime, Argentina controlled the point difference to 12 points, retaining hope of a comeback.

But when they came back in the second half and changed sides to fight again, Argentina's offense was still sluggish.

Especially their inside core Scola was completely restricted by Gasol.

This is the first time Scola has looked so helpless in this World Cup.

However, Gasol, who can even restrain Jokic, did not let the veteran Scola off at all, and defended the penalty area watertight!

On the offensive end, Gasol is more suitable for Rubio to organize the team's offense extremely smoothly. They also rely on teamwork to hit a climax and expand the lead to 22 points.

Zhou Si frowned when he saw this. Compared to the US team, Spain may be their number one enemy in this World Cup.

The fourth quarter did not go as Zhou Si expected. Although Argentina continued to make free throws to chase points and once narrowed the point difference to 12 points, Spain still stabilized the situation and maintained the lead until the end.

In the end, Spain defeated Argentina 95-79 and became the second team to lock in the semi-finals.

They will face the winner of Australia and the Czech Republic in the semi-finals.
Chapter completed!
