Beijing time on July 25, 2022 Indonesia Jakarta men's basketball Asian Cup ended the competition for the whole tournament, and finally Australia defeated Lebanon to win the championship, New Zealand reversed Jordan to win the third place, the ranking of this competition was also released, in addition to Australia's victory, this competition can be said to be a cold event.
In the championship battle that ended last night, Australia narrowly defeated Lebanon 75-73 to win the championship, the first quarter of this game, Australia won a 12-point advantage, and then the next two quarters of the game, the difference between the two sides was controlled within 5 points, and in the last quarter Lebanon fought back madly, but unfortunately the 2-point difference lost the championship battle, and Australia defended its title.
In another third-place battle, New Zealand staged a Jedi counterattack, in the first half of the third quarter, New Zealand fell behind by 15 points, but the team then frantically chased points, of which Milner hit 3 points in a row to narrow the point gap, 7 of 10 three-pointers, and finally New Zealand defeated Jordan 83-75 and won the third place!
As a result, the final ranking of this men's basketball Asian Cup: Australian champion, Lebanon runner-up, New Zealand third runner-up, Jordan team palace runner-up! The other four teams China, Japan, South Korea, Iran's results are only the top 8, these four traditional strong teams in the Asian basketball world, none of them entered the final four, I have to say that this men's basketball Asian Cup is a bit cold.
The Chinese team was eliminated by Lebanon in the top 8, the Japanese team was eliminated by Australia, the South Korean team was eliminated by New Zealand, Iran was eliminated by the Jordan team, in the history of the Asian Cup, China, Japan, South Korea three teams together did not qualify for the top 8, this is the first time to appear, it can be seen that this men's basketball Asian Cup, is really too cold.
For China, Japan, South Korea and Iran, it is indeed a bit humiliating to miss the top 4, especially these four teams, and then we have to think about a question, when Australia enters the Asian Basketball Association, how will it fight against this big devil team in the future? You must know that this time Australia is not an absolute main force, at best it is just a third team, and such a lineup swept the Asian Cup, and the strength is too terrifying.
