Euro champions end Emus' World Cup medal dream
Australia's dream of ending a decades-long medal drought at the FIBA Under-19 World Cup is over after an 80-67 defeat to Germany in the quarter-finals. After a horror first half, the Emus faced a 23-point deficit early in the third quarter at Switzerland's Lausanne Arena on Friday night. They rallied and cut the margin to four points in the final period before Germany steadied through star duo Hannes Steinbach and Christian Anderson. Luke Fennell (18 points) and Roman Siulepa (17) led the scoring for Australia, with Jacob Furphy (13, eight rebounds) also influential. But their efforts weren't enough to steer the Emus to the semi-finals for the first time since an Andrew Bogut-led team won a historic gold medal in 2003. Steinbach (16 points, 16 rebounds) and Anderson (18, eight) led the way for Germany, who will take on Slovenia in the last four. "In the second half, especially the third quarter, they came back with some big threes, but we found our rhythm again and finished the game," Steinbach said. "It's a pretty big thing that we were able to show the character when we have a run against us. "We stuck together and found a way to win." Germany, who have never won a medal at the Under-19 World Cup, reached the semi-finals for the first time since 1987, when they finished fourth. "That's pretty amazing," NBA prospect Steinbach said. "This group here is pretty good and we can achieve even more." Slovenia, who were beaten 75-68 by Germany in the group stage, qualified for the last four for the first time with a dominant 79-55 win over Israel. New Zealand also made history, reaching the semi-finals for the first time with an 84-70 win over tournament hosts Switzerland. Hayden Jones had 23 points, nine rebounds, five assists and four blocks for the Junior Tall Blacks, with Oscar Goodman (13 points, 13 rebounds) also impressive. New Zealand next face a massive test against tournament favourites USA. "It means a lot. Basketball has been on the rise for the last five years," Goodman said. "It keeps getting bigger every day, and this just shows we can compete with the best teams in the world." USA remain on track for a record-extending ninth Under-19 World Cup title after outlasting Canada 108-102 in the best game of the tournament so far.
