Italy is the second classified in group A

The European team went down to the locals, and was left in second place in group A thinking about the title.

At the close of the group stage, there was a celebration for Italy in Manila, who in the final date defeated the locals in a tight 90-83 and ended up qualifying for the next stage with a 2-1 record. Now he will join the Dominican Republic with the best in group B; where Serbia, Puerto Rico, South Sudan and China meet. The Philippines, who lost today, will be in group M, from 17th to 32nd place.

Six players finished scoring in double figures; in a short round, where three players see no action. Simone Fontecchio finished as the team’s leading scorer, completing his roster with 18 points; plus 6 rebounds. Marco Spissu and Stefano Tonut followed with 13 points each. Zero is about to round off the double double; with 9 assists. Gianmarco Pozzecco’s men enjoyed great effectiveness from the perimeter; with 17/41 from 6.75m.

The Philippines once again vibrated with their fans, who were filled with the hope of a classification that seemed like a miracle. In the end it didn’t reach them, but they had two figures above the rest. Jordan Clarkson once again led the offense, with 23 points and 8/20 shooting from the field. Dwight Ramos accompanied him with 14 units; as the only two players to score in double digits.

How the tournament is going for them:

The path of the Philippines and Italy will separate from now. The Europeans will continue their journey in search of the title; at the top of the frame. It is in group I with the Dominican Republic and the best place in group B. The Philippines, for its part, will be in group M, where Angola is already located; waiting for the results of the day on Wednesday to meet the other two countries.
