Who needs stars: the Spanish team won the European Championship Israel today

The Spanish team is the European champion.

Against all estimates and expectations, the world champion won the European title this evening (Sunday).

Spain won the final held in Berlin over France 76:88 and won the title of Eurobasket champion for the fourth time.

This is also her fourth title in the last six championships.

Because the stars of the golden generation are no longer in the national team and because of a wave of injuries and shortages this time it is not exactly Spain who will do it.

The tradition, the heart, the winership and a super coach like Sergio Scariolo (who won all four championships) made the difference this time as well.

In Spain in the current tournament there was always a new hero, this time it was Juancho Hernangomez in an amazing evening of 27 points and 7 triples.

His brother Willie added 14 points, and Jaime Fernandez also made a big contribution to the victory (13 points).

Maccabi Tel Aviv guard Lorenzo Brown, who was selected to the top five of the tournament, provided another excellent game, this time with a double double of 14 points and 11 assists.

Spain already led by 21 points at the expense of the best defensive team in the tournament, but a French run of 2:20 reduced the difference to only 3, at the beginning of the third quarter, but then the Spaniards were not pressed - and again increased the gap to double digits until the big celebration, which this time She is also particularly surprising.
