As Team USA goes for the coveted three-peat in women’s basketball, student-athletes from the Russian Federation look for their team's first title since 1985.

Led by a bevvy of future WNBA players, Team USA takes on a home team of Russian hoopsters with Summer Universiade 2013 gold on the line. However, the Americans were pushed to the absolute limits by the Australians before icing the game in the final seconds to win, 79-78. The Russians, meanwhile, roll into the final having vanquished Chinese Taipei 69-51 in the semis.

Tune in Tuesday at 18:00 CEST (16:00 GMT) to catch all the action from what is surely going to be a hotly contested gold medal matchup.
