El oro inesperado

What mechanisms worked for the seventh betting favorite to win the Eurobasket 2022 Gold medal? What is the alchemy that brought a National Team that competed without most of the planetary stars that made it great in previous decades to the top of the podium? 'The unexpected Gold' reveals the secrets of Spain in the last European Basketball Championship, how Sergio Scariolo designed, with mastery and a slate that amazed the world, a team in which the roles of his men were adjusted to complement and build a group that supplied with its collective virtues the individual deficiencies that the generational change had imposed on it. A group that became strong through sacrifice, humility, defense, generosity and camaraderie, that fortified the values that have made #LaFamilia recognizable in world sport and competed with courage, having faith in themselves and their possibilities that led him to turn the predictions around, and turn what seemed like a journey doomed to failure into a success story. The triumph of some 'normal' types that is, moreover, a life lesson on how to work with dedication and respect for one's trade is also a way to gain access to glory.
