The Emu's made it two wins in a row after they cruised to a 107-42 victory over Bahrain at the 2018 FIBA Under-18 Asian Championships in Thailand.

Samson Froling led six Australians who scored in double figures, adding a game-high 21 points and 8 rebounds as the Emus overpowered their Asian opponents in the paint. Their superior size saw them pull down 36 offensive rebounds to just 7, while scoring 64 points to 20 inside the key on their way to a 65 point victory.

Australia and the Philippines moved straight into the quarters, and will play the winners of qualifying games. Assuming both teams win, they play each other in the semis on August 10th, according to the FIBA website.

Tomorrow the two countries square off in the semis. Will the Gilas be going all out for revenge or pull their heads in? Will it be reffed so tightly that we'll see many players fouled off for twiggy-touch stuff? Will we see USFs galore?

It’s on YouTube through the FIBA website
