Against all odds Finland reached his quarterfinals Eurobasket 2022 winning at Croatia. Very similar story to Spain who hit one Lithuania who had victory in his hands. In this way, the Spanish and Finnish teams will face each other in the next round, which gives access to the medal race.
Lauri Markkanen he is the big finnish star. A player capable of scoring 43 points out of 16 with 65.5% as well as 34 against the Czech Republic and 33 against Israel in the group stage.
Far from what it might seem, Finland will not be an easy opponent and could well knock out Spain in the quarter-finals.
