## Resource

The U.S. women’s basketball team is headed to their fifth straight FIBA World Cup final after a hard-fought 76-66 semifinal win over Spain, extending their 35-game winning streak since 2006. Down to the wire, they surged in the fourth quarter, outscoring Spain 28-8 to seal the victory. Coach Kara Lawson praised their defensive grit, while stars like Kahleah Copper and rookie Aliyah Boston celebrated the chance to face France — the Olympic gold medalists — in the final. This rematch of last year’s one-point thriller could give the U.S. a historic five-peat, matching the Soviet Union’s record.
