College basketball game in Taiwan ends with the most heartbreaking missed buzzer-beater

Though sports have mostly been put on hold across the world, there are still some competitions going on. In Taiwan, college basketball tournament games were allowed to be held inside the Taipei Arena behind closed doors, with only a small amount of media and family members in attendance. The women’s semifinal game between defending champion Fo Guang University and Shih Hsin University delivered a stunning and absolutely heartbreaking ending in triple-overtime.

Up 76-75, a Shih Hsin player missed a potential dagger as the shot clock expired, and Fo Guang recovered the ball with around five seconds remaining. Two quick outlet passes set up a Fo Guang player with a chance at a wide-open, uncontested game-winning layup… but she missed the shot.

That’s brutal. Shih Hsin moved on to the final and beat Chinese Culture University to claim its first-ever championship.
