After 17 years of drought, Italy is back in the title game of the U20 European Championship after a 77-66 victory over France in the first Semi-Final in Bilbao, Spain.
Italy will take on Spain, who beat Russia in the other semi-final.
France, after back-to-back appearances in the final and the gold medal last year, will fight for the bronze against Russia.
The Italians will get a chance to win their second gold medal after taking the first trophy back in 1992, when the tournament was first introduced.
