Giant feeling! Switzerland beat Serbia in the last second with this dream shot

The Swiss men’s team achieved a real coup in qualifying for the European Championship, which was postponed to the following year, with a 92:90 victory over Serbia.

Coach Gianluca Barilari’s team arrived thanks to the surprise of the seemingly overwhelming Serbs to their first victory in the final phase of the elimination.

Dusan Mladjan made the perfect surprise with his last basket just under a second before the final siren. The most successful player in the Swiss ranks, who scored higher than Serbia in all four quarters, was Jonathan Kazadi, who worked for Lille in France with 23 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.

The EM dream is alive

The Swiss had played the first two matches (lost) against Georgia and Finland before restrictions due to the corona pandemic in February. Thanks to the victory over Serbia, they can continue to hope to participate in the European Championship, which was postponed for a year until 2022.

In addition to Georgia, which will host Germany, Italy and the Czech Republic and which will therefore surely participate, the two best teams from the group of four qualify.
