Germany stuns Team USA to reach World Cup final after all-time classic

A memorable semifinal in Manila sees the lone undefeated team in the competition advancing to Sunday’s final match against Serbia

Manila, Philippines – One of the best games ever of the FIBA World Cup sees Germany beating Team USA for the first time in the nation’s history, and the reward is a ticket for Sunday’s Final against Serbia. The United States, instead, will play Canada for a bronze medal after conceding 113 points to a team that has six players in double figure.


The MVP is undoubtedly Andreas Obst, who scores 24 points in the game of his life. Franz Wagner adds 22 and Daniel Theis puts 21 points and 7 rebounds in a heavyweight fight under both rims. Anthony Edwards’ 23 points, 8 rebounds weren’t enough for Team USA who wasn’t able to count on Brandon Ingram because of an upper respiratory illness.
