That Spain shape held firm right through extra time. The defensive line stayed connected and the passing lanes through the middle were closed off completely.
That 1-0 grind. Extra-time winner saved the under.
Spain's defensive discipline is one thing. But show me a WNBA rotation that holds firm through four quarters without foul trouble and I'll show you a clean under on the opposing bench.
Epic? It was a slog. Spain held on but Argentina had no teeth up front. That's the real story.Under 2.5 was the play all night. Anyone who backed overs got burned.
