At La Concorde’s basketball court, a jubilant crowd of orange-clad fans is celebrating after witnessing a dominant performance by the Netherlands against Lithuania. The Netherlands secured a convincing 20-9 victory, earning them a spot in the gold medal game scheduled for later tonight. The team will face off against the winner of the upcoming match between Latvia and France, set to begin in approximately 30 minutes.
The atmosphere at the Olympic venue is electric, with the iconic Luxor Obelisk standing just outside the basketball court. The press riser offers stunning views of Paris landmarks such as the spires of Notre Dame and the dome of Les Invalides, adding to the unique setting of the event.
The venue is alive with music, catering to a younger audience and fans of alternative sports. In addition to the basketball action, spectators can also enjoy two skateboarding stadiums nearby. Later this week, the breaking finals will take place at this vibrant location, further showcasing the diversity of sports featured at the Olympics.
