Spain - Montenegro: schedule and where to watch the Eurobasket match on TV and online

The Spanish basketball team needs to recover from the last defeat in the Eurobasket and is looking for a win this afternoon (4:15 p.m.) against Montenegro on matchday four of the group stage. Despite the fact that after losing to Belgium things were a bit complicated, Spain still has options to seal its qualification for the round of 16 today if they win.

Right now Group A is a real powder keg with a fourfold tie for the top places between Montenegro, Belgium, Turkey and Spain. An uncertain scenario that could leave the team out of the Eurobasket if it does not recover the path of victory.

This Tuesday, in addition to Montengro-Spain, the duels between Belgium and Turkey (1:30 p.m.), and the match between Georgia and Bulgaria (7 p.m.) will be played. On the last day of the group stage, Spain will face Turkey.

The Spanish team, after the first two victories against Bulgaria and Georgia, lost the good feeling against Belgium, so the objective, in addition to the victory, is to feel comfortable on the court again, to have energy in defense and self-confidence in attack.

The lack of experience of many of the Spanish players in a major continental competition requires paying a toll - Scariolo spoke of "a slap in the face" - and after a day of rest it is to be hoped that they have learned their lesson and take a step forward again .

It will not be an easy undertaking against a team with old acquaintances from the Spanish League such as Dubljevic (Valencia), Nemanja Radovic (UCAM Murcia), Dino Radoncic (Casademont Zaragoza) and Zoran Nikolic, with a past in the lower categories of Barcelona and who reached debut in the ACB with Joventut.

Dubljevic, The Rock, is the leader, the top scorer for Montenegro (18.7 points on average in the Eurobasket) and top rebounder (8.7), but he has proven teammates such as shooting guard Vladimir Mihailovic (14.3 points) , nationalized point guard Kendrick Perry (13 points and 6.3 assists) who will play next season at Unicaja Málaga and Radovic (10 points and 4.3 rebounds). In addition to the NBA in Chicago Bulls Marko Simonovic (7 points) and Igor Drobnjak (7.3 points).

Spain will play this Tuesday, September 6, the fourth match of the Eurobasket group stage. Those from Scariolo face Montengro at the Tbilisi Sports Palace, starting at 4:15 p.m. The match, corresponding to group A, can be seen openly on Cuatro. In addition, La Vanguardia will offer minute by minute live with the highlights of the meeting.
