Puerto Rico vs Canada live online
Match date: 7 September, 2011 - Kick Off Time: 00:00 GMT
Canada’s hopes of qualifying for the London Olympics were all but dashed Tuesday after a 79-74 loss to Puerto Rico at the FIBA Olympic Americas qualifying tournament.
Canada fell to 0-2 in the second round and needs to win its two remaining games and get some help from other teams to have a shot of reaching a second-chance Olympic qualifier next summer.
Veteran NBA guard Carlos Arroyo led all players with 26 points. Andy Rautins was the top Canadian scorer with 18 points.
Canada trailed by 15 after three quarters but fought back to tie the game 67-67 with about six minutes left to play. However, Arroyo hit five straight points after a timeout and Puerto Rico never relinquished the lead.
