What a win for the Serbian national team! The boys coached by Svetislav Pešić will play in the 2023 FIBA World Cup Final as they defeated Canada by 95:86 in the big semi-final clash.
Serbia have played an amazing game. Bogdan Bogdanović was making shots from all over the court, Nikola Milutinov was dominating the paint, while Ognjen Dobrić and Aleksa Avramović were simply perfect defensively as they managed to stop Canadian main players.
Every single player gave its contribution to this huge win, while everything was perfectly orchestrated by experienced head coach Svetislav Pešić who was the head coach of Yugoslavia back in 2002 when this team won the gold medal at the 2002 FIBA World Cup in Indianapolis.
Can he repeat that success this Sunday in Manila? We all hope so!
Serbia will play against Germany in the match for the gold medal.
