The Swiss team under 19 is competing on Friday the quarter -finals of “its” World Cup
The protégés of coach Ivan Rudez will rub shoulders in New Zealand at 8 p.m. in Lausanne for a place in the last square.
Swiss hopes-which may have to face the United States in the semi-final-hope to confirm the feat signed Wednesday evening in the final. They released France 86-79, signing a partial 23-2 between the end of the fourth quarter and the start of the extension to overthrow the Habs.
The Genevan Dayan Nessah (17.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists on average in this tournament) and his teammates dream of offering a new medal in Swiss basketball, less than a week after the money earned by the 3×3 elite male team in the World Cup. Nothing seems impossible to them.
But New Zealand, which dominated China 99-86 in the final, has arguments to argue. New Zealanders rely on a very homogeneous attack, with four days at 10 or more on average. The rear Tama Isaac stands out, with its 14.8 points, 6.8 assists and 6.5 rebounds per game.
