Asian Cup China VS Indonesian Team

Go further from the World Cup

This game is of extraordinary significance to Indonesia. As one of the host of the Men's Basketball World Cup in 2023, Indonesia needs to advance to the top 8 in this men's basketball Asian Cup to qualify for the World Cup. However, this game was defeated to Chinese men. The basket was 50 points, and it also directly announced that Indonesia completely missed the men's basketball World Cup at its own door.

At present, the men's basketball World Cup qualifiers have entered the second stage. According to the rules, if Indonesia enters the top 8 in the men's basketball Asian Cup, the top 2 of the two groups of EF and the third place with the best record. A total of 5 teams are qualified for the World Cup. But now Indonesia fails to enter the top 8 of the men's basketball Asian Cup, then the top 3 of the two groups of EF groups will be qualified for the World Cup.

If Indonesia gets the right to participate in the World Cup, then the Chinese men's basketball team must obtain the top two in Group F in the World Cup. The Chinese men's basketball team that does not have an advantage in terms of points now only needs to ensure the first three groups. Successfully advanced to the World Cup.

In the third stage of the World Cup qualifiers, the Chinese men's basketball team will fight two games with Kazakhstan, Iran and Barin respectively. As long as the Chinese men's basketball team play normally, it is relatively easy to get the first three groups.

When the 30 -year -old veteran Gu Quan was elected into the national team, he questioned a lot, but after a few games, Gu Quan responded to questioning with excellent performance.

Facing the host Indonesian team in this game, Gu Quan played for 26 minutes. He shot 8 of 13, of which 5 of 9 of three -pointers scored 23 points in the audience, and there were 7 rebounds and 1 assists.

You know, Gu Quan is the scoring king of the Chinese men's basketball team, averaging 17.3 points per game, and 5.3 points and 1.3 assists.

In the absence of the main force due to illness, Gu Quan became the "thigh" of the Chinese men's basketball team. From another perspective, Du Feng brought the right person this time.
