Germany have surprised everyone by beating the United States in the World Championship semifinals 113-111.

Andreas Obst, Franz Wagner, and Daniel Theis played amazingly for Germany, leading them to their first-ever FIBA Basketball World Cup final.

The game was filled with excitement, and Obst’s three-pointer helped Germany secure the win, despite a late comeback attempt by the U.S.

The United States will now play Canada for third place, while Germany faces Serbia in the championship game. This was a high-scoring game and the highest-scoring tournament match since 1994.

Germany’s strong defense and teamwork made the difference, and they are now on the path to basketball glory.
