<P>Superstar forward Luis Scola of Tau Ceramica poured in 25 points to lead the South Americans to an 84-69 triumph over a determined but tired Italy. </P>Golden Day For United States WomenFrom Jeff Taylor, PA International, Athens<P>The USA women accomplished what the men failed to do by winning a gold medal at the Olympics on Saturday. In a tough battle against the Australians, Van Chancellor's Americans triumphed 74-63.</P>
<P>The United States, the dominant force in the women's game since 1996 in Atlanta, have now won three golds on the trot at the Summer Games and they have taken titles at FIBA's World Championships in between, too.</P>Azzurri Surprise Lithuania To Reach FinalFrom Jeff Taylor, PA International, Athens<P>Italy shocked France to get to the Olympics, now they've created an upset of even bigger proportions with a 100-91 victory over Lithuania to set up a clash for the gold medal with Argentina. </P>
<P>The unlikeliest of stories continues to be written in European basketball with Italy, the team of anonymous players that beat France to a bronze medal at the 2003 European Championships, now in the gold medal game at the Olympics. </P>Russia 62 - USA 66From Jeff Taylor, PA International, Athens <P>Russia's women gave the United States their biggest fight at the Olympic Games but crashed to a 66-62 defeat and will now play in Saturday's bronze medal game against Brazil. </P>
<P>Vadim Kapranov's team looked as if they might be about to spring an upset when Oxana Rakhmatulina's three-pointer cut America's lead to 60-58 with less than five minutes to play. </P>Argentina See Off Greeks In Tense FinishFrom Jeff Taylor, PA International, Athens<P>Argentina spoiled the party for Greek basketball fans by eliminating the Olympic hosts from medal contention on quarter-finals day.</P>
<P>Greece were looking to make it three European teams in the last four with Lithuania and Italy already in along with the United States.</P>Double Blow For Spain<P>Spanish basketball is coming to terms with having a second medal contender in less than 24 hours knocked out of the Olympics.</P>
<P>The men’s team are angry about a 102-94 loss to the United States on Thursday which robbed them of a chance of playing for a medal, and furious with a late timeout by Team USA which came when the outcome was all but assured.</P>Russia Fly Flag For EuropeFrom Jeff Taylor, PA International, Athens, Exclusively for FIBA Europe<P>Russia's women are the only European side with a chance of Olympic glory after Spain, the Czech Republic and host nation Greece made exits on quarter-finals day. </P>
<P>Russia stamped their authority on the match against the Czech Republic early and cruised to a 70-49 triumph. </P>FIBA Europe Teams Excel In Olympic BasketballThe European teams participating in the Olympic Basketball Tournaments in Athens have clearly demonstrated their ability and their strength, and with it have definitely justified the high number of Olympic spots that the old continent receives. <P>Italy legend Dino Meneghin believes the fate of the Azzurri will be decided in the heavens after Saturday's Olympic draw in Madrid.</P>
<P>Meneghin, inducted into the sport's Hall of Fame this summer, is still on a high after his country's bronze medal success at the European Championships in Sweden.</P>

<P>Italy are in Group A with China, New Zealand, Spain, Argentina and Serbia & Montenegro.</P>
<P>Meneghin was at the draw in the Spanish capital.</P>
<P>"I think our group is very difficult," Meneghin told PA International.</P>
<P>"I think it's worse than the other group because we have Spain, Serbia, Argentina and New Zealand, and they're all going to be very tough games."</P>
<P>Group B consists of Lithuania, the United States, Australia, Angola, Greece and Puerto Rico.</P>
<P>"One important thing will be to not finish third so we can avoid the States or Lithuania (in the quarter-final)," Meneghin said.</P>
<P>"I think the most important thing is to get there with our team in shape and with no injuries, but that's in the hands of God.</P>
<P>"If you look at the Europeans, we can finish in the top five, but it depends on which team we actually take. The Italian league is very long and we need to keep our players healthy."</P>Meneghin Seeks Divine Intervention for Italian Olympic CampgainFrom Paul Giblin and Mark Elkington, PA International, Madrid<P>Italy legend Dino Meneghin believes the fate of the Azzurri will be decided in the heavens after Saturday's Olympic draw in Madrid.</P>
