[@GodBlessY0utube]

Vive le France. Parker we love you and you deserve it. Greetings from Lithuania. Cya at the final ;)

[@trebolde4hojas687]

France was Parker in this period. A real fantastic player and a gentleman. The rest were just ordinary players. Spain has been leading the european basketball during the last 20 years and we continue

[@Wolfpaw7000]

Wonderful game, France definitely deserved to win!!! May the best one win tomorrow :) best wishes from Lithuania!

[@defbones5597]

Et hop, une demie-décennie de frustration évacuée!

[@branislavpandur2270]

[@ltulukas6552]

[@pobesnelizmaj]

If you look at the names playing for French team , that is the strongest team currently in Europe. It will be a great final tomorrow to watch. basketball fan from Serbia.

[@SrpskiVragolan]

Viva la France! Greetings from Serbia! Hope you win this European Championship! Wish you good luck in the final! Tony Parker FTW!

[@pau11S80]

To see how happy you all are after we lost makes me proud of the Spanish team. We made you go mad for four years straight! :)

[@Mrhamenokormi]

Allez les bleus!! congrats from Greece. huge tony parker, totally deserves it.

[@BernieCode]

Good luck in the final! Greets from Lithuania.

[@HeroMagic26]

Lauvergne let's go ! Let's go France. Greetings from Serbia ! :)

[@johnnyguolker2276]

Spain world champion 2019!

[@aliocha35]

Iam proud of my nation and proud of those mens ! coming from a french which has got spanish, irish, celtic blood in his veins and uncle from franco-morroco, franco ivorio, italo-french nieces !!!!

[@DOCTORG444]

L'équipe de France nous a offert des frayeurs et au final une victoire magnifique. Une victoire n'est grande que face à un adversaire valeureux et redouté. Toutes les insultes et invectives, d'où qu'elles viennent, témoignent plutôt d'une grande méconnaissance de notre sport qui est probablement l'un des plus beaux. Bravo aux bleus, bravo à l'Espagne. Place à la grande finale.

[@stefankbt]

I LOVE THIS GAME!!!

[@lizouna]

i totally aggree with you...spain is a great team but i totally dislike them for their arrogant behaviour...i am very happy that you won yesterday and i wil be supporting you on tha final game but i wish good luck to both teams though..:) Congratulations from Greece

[@Wolfpaw7000]

As you said, everything is possible - both teams have already played against each other and have experience, so it's pretty hard to decide for me who is better, I have no doubt that the final will be epic :)

[@eggwhiteonly]

Tony Parker.. best PG in the world. The French Assassin.

[@dragonforce1225]

Epic win for France they prove it that they can win against spain congradulations from Lithuania see you in final!

[@mirak63]

Boris Diaw's mum is white. Tony Parker's mum is white. Nicolas Batum's mum is white. Joakim Noah mother is white, and the mother of is father is white. Alexis Ajinca's mother is white. (not sure but i think so). Not that it mater much but that answer directly to your question about how much native they are. And it doesn't matter anyway because beeing french is not about blood and ancestors, and never have been across the centuries.

[@giedriusLT3]

congratulation from Lithuania. France deserve to win!

[@yasmintimol3357]

Parker made this game amazing! he is and incredible though very much underrated player!!!!

[@goquu]

Greetings from Lithuania enemies. Congratulations on the win yesterday. Wish u luck in final.

[@gurigachechiladze6482]

tony parker my favouriet basketbal player in europe !!!

[@lucasjonoah3722]

Remember the Calderon's smile at the end of the 2nd QT ? AHAH

[@MrErupas]

Very impressive and a nice game to watch, hope France is going to give Lithuania a good competition too. The best of luck from Lithuania. :)

[@spartiatis-ef4le]

This passion by Parker.. Who can hate this guy?

[@Nesseuh]

Merci les bleus heureusement que vous êtes là car si on devait compter sur les bleus en foot... Allez plus que la finale ! Faites nous rêver !

[@giedriusLT3]

Congratulation from Lithuania. France deserve to win!

[@clio2rsminicup]

Finally year after year this French team learn & progress, losing by several points vs Spain 8 years ago, close matchs the 2 last years & winner today I'm very happy of course like all French fans but it's not over & if we lost the Final this semi will be for nothing... Lithuania is a very good team, even the best team currently of this Euro 2013 & it will be a very hard match for France in final, harder than vs Spain So please Les Bleus keep your concentration & your forces for the Final !

[@andriuso2892]

Lithuania vs France just amazing final to watch

[@clio2rsminicup]

Tony Parker was born in France ! :-)

[@nascut1984]

No. He was born in Belgium.

[@clio2rsminicup]

and ? he is Belgian? Just for LOL ask that to him to see his answer? :-) he is not a more French Patriot than him in the French Team for your knowedges Even when he win a NBA's championship he takes on his shoulders a French Flag! ^^

[@bitoku6478]

Pandemonium Lig He just answer to your mistake .. He never said he wasn't french... So do some research before saying bullshits :)

[@lucaslonchampt613]

lol nope

[@queensbd69]

It's true, Parker is absolutely vital in this french national team. All the best words go to him, and he deserves. But if I had to choose who is the "essential" player I'd say Pietrus. He's a big defender with a larg sort of resources, and minimize Batum weak defense. Generous, humble... he doesn't seem french (je rigole! épargnez des responses en colère ;) ). It's a fantastic player, very intelligent, constantly well-reading play actions, he only must do something more in offense.

[@VaporizerBrothers]

Have fun France, but the win for Lithuania means a lot more to our small 2.5mil country. Good game!

[@user-dj7bp2un3m]

What a match!

[@UrbanPalois]

Faut rester correct et fair play et pas déverser tous ces mots que tu comprends pas..... Super match au couteau et très serré.... Et vive le prochain champion d'Europe !!!

[@AntonioGym101]

It was a great game !! But I was really disappointed by Spain attitude.. I hope France win the finals!

[@PCABEATS]

Se puede decir que fue uno de los mejores juegos de la historia del EuroBasket

[@hexas_]

;) I was supporting France team yesterday. But gold is Lithuanians!!!

[@AntonioPredator]

congrats from macedonia :)

[@howardvalencia6665]

What a game.

[@sergicater9]

We should be more grateful of the team we have. This team deserves a public like Lithuanian people .Spain is different, too good for the rest of European teams (unless when we miss Pau,Juanqui, Serge...) So enjoy this "break" France,Lithuania... Cause next year Spain will do their best again. You say that Gasol, Navarro are 30 and It's true but guys like Abrines and Diez are just coming. So remember this: Spain will continue being the best for many years.

[@clio2rsminicup]

These highlights don't show the main in this semi : France lose by 14 pts in the end of the 1 HT and made an awesome come-back during the 2 HT to finish at equality in the end of the regular time and to win in the 1 st extra-time Seeing this I can say that I saw more faults by the Spanish on the French not give at France by the referees like often...

[@clio2rsminicup]

For the moment that we seeing, the best etam in this Euro2013 is your team and like I said before it will be an harder match for our Bleus vs Lithuania in Final than vs Spain in Semi But with the French nothing is unpossible so wait and see ^^ Let's hope the best one win & see a great Final

[@terrorsquadlith]

what a game !

[@DjNiqueed]

Parker is an amazing player, look how he plays! If you dont know him you will think he is still 25 years old! Amazing guy and based on his achievments maybe he is the best European of all times! He is the protagonist of Spurs and France more than a decade! However i believe that Lithuania will defeat France because has deaper roster!

[@Emile97427]

A think a player like Parker, born in Belgium by an American father and a Netherlander mother, grown up in France and fighting as strong as he can, year after year, for our nation, is more French than the one, born in france, who prefer to give priority to his NBA contract. And more French than the native politicals who sale the country to NATO or international finance. And more french than the muslim natives who fght every day against France's symbols. Being French come from the heart.

[@davidvilja555]

Svaka cast Francuzi!!!

[@josephniepce7887]

All french players are born in France ? Nope, my dear. Tony Parker was born in Belgium, his mother was Dutch and father was an American. But generaly I do agree with you. heh

[@ozonas5561]

Good job France congrats from Lithuania:)

[@lamu0524]

congrats not easy for france and Tony

[@presimirmikic9016]

Why was these old basketball games' score so low?

[@iliyan-kulishev]

True indeed. It's a deserved win don't get me wrong :)

[@yohannes80]

thx for the upload. but coul you do it again without the "music"?

[@VicMad1984]

But do you seriously think Spain wanted to lose against Italy and face France, one of the top favourites, a team that in the preparation it was very difficult for us to win, and face it in semifinals and not in the final? If Spain could choose they preferred to avoid France and face it only in final. They wanted to win, they were leading by 15 points. But Italy also plays and they won. Spanish fans were really angry that we could not win that game. Because 4 close games we loose them all

[@VicMad1984]

Watch the game, Spanoulis, as each european star, exaggerates contacts, because they know that because of their status they are going to get the calls, every star plays with this. Open your eyes. Anyway they are both great players. They are competitive and they use all weapons they have.

[@MrEdas22]

good game, post from LTU

[@TheCabIe]

And we beat you by 12 points 3 days ago in this very same tournament. It will be tough to do that again, but I'd be more careful that calling it "easy".

[@champgeneral]

Enfin !

[@aarty1]

Amazing game!

[@voodoochildfr]

you guys forget a bit too fast we beat lithuania 82-74 during the last Olympics...

[@TheCabIe]

What an insane game that was.. Grats to France for finally pushing Spain out of the finals. It's going to be really tough to beat France a second time for us, but we'll see what happens. Bring it on!

[@voodoochildfr]

oh really? Spain was finalist and silver medal winner during the last Olympics + had gold medal in the last Eurobasket. And you talk about your team which won nothing in these last 2 majors tournament.

[@sanjindragoljic2990]

well played..

[@jeancharlet6496]

Who's here after seeing the parker speech at halftime

[@aureliencharbon7896]

Me bro Meeeee!!!!! After 1 year but im here

[@massihc]

Tony Parker vs esp !! Awesome !!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone know name of this great commentator who screams "me gusta" and "voila" :) id really like to know?

[@champgeneral]

Lithuania is a great team, whith wonderfull players. And, "enfin" (sorry, i'm fench, and my english is very, very, very bad ^^), a final without Spain, it's cool.

[@VicMad1984]

This is a loser attitude. When a team plays that good, wins trophies and dominates it is always hated, but Real basketball fans, no matter where they are from, they enjoy watching these kind of games, and enjoy watching exciting players. Without racism or estereotypes

[@NewRenaissance1]

Well Said Bro!! ;)

[@ampeg187]

This was actually the match for Eurobasket championship, not to be rude but Lithuanian in final was not challenge at all. I'm just glad that France win and not Spain, i really like France team.

[@Sidow75000]

So proud to be french ! I was so mad after the Olympic Games when Spain "cheated" by losing against a team in order to be against the french and not the usa in the next round. The problem is that Spain is a really good team but their behavior on the pitch and all makes us hate them (not only in basketball). On the other hand, i have nothing against Lithuania, i respect them so much. Hope it will be an amazing game, but c'mon les bleus ! =) PARKER

[@VicMad1984]

You gotta be crazy to believe Spain wanted to loose and face France in semis and not in final. Loosing games on purpose is what Greece did against France in Eurobasket 2009. To avoid Spain. So it is funny to see you talking about it now.

[@gatsio1989]

they won because parker said to the other players of his team in third quarter : "they believe we are shit that's why they win at now, i will go outside to fight against them and if we lost ok _ce la vie_". after these words all players think the possibility to win this match. and thats happen :)

[@hristinamiroska6952]

FRANCE!!!Good job boys!

[@sousss4911]

France to win !!!!!! Allez les bleus ❤❤🇫🇷

[@imandalis44]

does anyone know the song playing in the beginning of the vid?

[@TheCabIe]

First time around it wasn't that easy ;) We'll see.

[@dubhairman]

Thanks Rasta Gelabale !!!

[@diewelthatunswieder]

whats the name of the theme in this video?

[@loksartre]

Excuse me, who won??

[@stampajzler77]

idemooo France !!!!

[@Zonum1]

Spain didn't have their best player, Pau Gasol, and he would have likely made a difference. Anyway, I'm glad France kicked their asses!

[@0innerself0]

Don't be this bitter. You lost, it happens.

[@the97Woker]

song name? :DD

[@VicMad1984]

Which attitude u mean?

[@clems75]

Dominique Wilkins is born in Paris and it doesn't make him french.

[@deividaspaliskis2067]

Parker was born in belgium

[@r0drig0lac1]

mvparker will full mvp

[@terururururu]

[@sanjindragoljic2990]

[@mrzlcumrzlcu]

Doctor Fuentes???

[@misspsycho1000]

it's hard to find any actual french players these days in any sport:football,basketball,tennis..lol

[@didi06lp]

he was afraid of losing his balls against Batum ^^

[@nikolavuksanovic7012]

FRANCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[@jgsky]

but then you had many more good NBA players and we had old and slow Saras, Kaukenas and Songaila.

[@Soulblaze15]

when i play nba 2k... i never let Gasol shoot 3s,.

[@AURELIJUXXXXXX]

i don't think so ;)

[@johannesjuanes]

they win without Gasol? that´s easy ...

[@izzlK5]

they had marc gasol

[@deathtoallbutmetal262]

@niftyFellow True but he's talking about Pau Gasol
