Eurobasket 2007: Lithuania - Croatia 74:72
Lithuania Slip Past Croatia, Into Semis
Zoran Planinic missed two foul shots with 1.02 seconds remaining, allowing Lithuania to hold off a motivated Croatia 74-72 and book their spot in Saturday's semi-finals against Russia.
Darius Songalia scored 20 points, grabbed seven rebounds and gave Lithuania the winning basket with 46 seconds left.
Linas Kleiza collected 19 points and nine rebounds and Sarunas Jasikevicius dished out eight assists as Lithuania remained the only perfect team in the competition.
"It should have been an easier game, but it was very difficult for us psychologically. Croatia are a very good team, but every team in the quarter-finals is good," said Ramunas Siskauskas, who was held to just two points.
"We were a bit nervous at the beginning, but not in the final seconds and that's what helped us to the win."
Lithuania are hoping to repeat their 2003 run to the EuroBasket title - which they won with a perfect 6-0 run.
