OS Beijing 2008 Paralympics Olympics Pekin

Asian champions achieved their primary goal, which was to move into the final 8, and prove themselves capable amongst the Europeans and Americans.

Latvia though, wasn’t an easy opponent, with a game un-ended before the final whistle; none of both sides was ready to compromise. Latvia’s comeback into the game reduced the difference of 17 points into only 2 in the remaining 12 seconds, and that put the Koreans into a huge circle of pressure and tension! skirmishing with determination and passion, they finished the game by 4 dots thanks to the free throws!

Asians don’t look to be a much winning bet in their next game against the States of America who are measured as the premium favorite in Beijing’s basketball tour. Nevertheless, the new qualified Korea will try to look good on TV in order to preserve their Asian dignity and pride of being the continent’s Champions.
