World Cup | Yago Santos and Brazil dismiss Ivory Coast

It was the most decisive match of the day, as the winner went through to the next round, while the loser went by the wayside. A life-and-death match won by Brazil (89-77).

However, Cédric Bah’s Ivory Coast (13 points, 13 rebounds, 2 blocks) has long shaken the Seleçao.

It was in the third quarter that Brazil began to take the measure of their opponent, behind a Yago Santos (24 points at 6/7 from afar, 12 assists) lethal at 3-points and very diligent to take advantage of the assists and double-takes, in order to free Bruno Caboclo or even Tim Soares.

But after counting up to 15 points behind (65-50), the Elephants revived thanks to two 3-pointers from Assemian Moulare, the gap falling to five points (70-65) at the entrance of the last quarter.

Except that Yago Santos continued to dissect the opposing defense, Côte d’Ivoire failing to afford a hold-up.

Brazil therefore passes to the second round, with Spain, Canada and Latvia in group L. For its part, Côte d’Ivoire joins France in group P, and will therefore play the classification matches.
