The first round of the Qatar World Cup group stage ended in the early morning of November 25, and the performance of the nine strong teams was different. Brazil and WestCinema each defeated their opponents and showed strong dominance. France, England, the Netherlands and Portugal won respectively, but some problems were also exposed. The last third place Belgium won the thrilling victory, and Germany and Argentina lost the first round in the 2014 World Cup. These three strong teams were a little sad.
Brazil and Spain play dominant
Asia is a blessed land of Brazil, and the last time the Samba Army won the World Cup was in the South Korea-Japan World Cup twenty years ago. In the first round of the Qatar World Cup group stage, Brazil was the finale’s strong team. They used their gorgeous performance to repay the fans’ expectations and began to show their championship appearance.
In this World Cup, Brazil defeated European powerhouse Serbia 2-0 in the first match, and coach Tit led his disciples to play a pleasing offensive football. In Brazil’s 4-1-2-3 attack formation, almost everyone can become the offensive explosive point. Center Richarlison scored two goals, and Neymar, one of the double midfielders, was at ease in commanding the offense. Left winger Junior continued his hot state in Real Madrid and became a sharp knife in the offense. Another midfielder, Paqueta, has excellent offensive ability and strong scoring ability.
It was not until 2-0 that Titt replaced Paqueta with midfielder Fred, allowing Manchester United’s double midfielder Casemiro and Fred to be present together. Neymar was replaced due to a sprained ankle, which became an uncertain factor for Brazil. His injury needs to be waited for further examination results.
Brazil fully demonstrates its samba football style, and Spain also fully demonstrates its pass-by and control football. Brazil defended Serbia’s five shots in the whole game, and Spain allowed Costa Rica to fail to shoot in the whole game. However, Spain has not been truly tested by the old Costa Rica lineup, and the old and the young, and the “Matador” turned the first round of the World Cup team into a training match.
In the first round, Spanish coach Enrique put center Morata on the bench and sent a set of strikeless formations. Real Madrid winger Asensio is at the center position, the two wingers are Ormo and Ferran Torres, and the three midfielders Busquets, Pedri and Gala are all from Barcelona. Spain’s starting lineupRongzhong does not have a regular center, but everyone can score. Whether this state can be played when facing a strong team needs to be tested in the next game against Germany.
British and French talents have produced strong firepower
England is the European Cup Asian Army, France is the defending champion of the World Cup, and the two traditional strong teams have performed well. England defeated Iran 6-2, and France reversed Australia 4-1, but Britain and France also had their own hidden worries.
English players are known for their tall figure, tough style and strong confrontational ability. The “Three Lions” coached by Southgate also has delicate foot skills, which further improves their competitiveness. Previously, in the European League group stage, England, which had 3 draws and 3 losses, performed poorly, which was considered to be “accumulating enough character” to compete in the World Cup. When we arrived at the World Cup, not only did Kane and Sterling of the Mesozoic generation perform stably, but also the new post-00s such as Bellingham, Saka, and Foden, were staged by the “Youth Storm”. Similar to Brazil, England’s bench depth is enviable, and Rashford, Glalish, Foden and Wilson can continue their offensive firepower after they come on as a substitute. Central defender Maguire lost his main position at Manchester United, but Southgate still trusts him very much. His header bombing is extremely threatening, but the “Ma Komiks aircraft carrier” turns too slowly while defending, becoming a hidden danger on the English defense line. France has also strong talent reserves. Although famous players such as Benzema, Pogba, Kanter Komiks, Mai Ni Babaylan, Nkunku and other famous players failed to participate in this World Cup, French coach Deschamps was still at ease when deploying troops. The main offense when he won the last World Cup, the combination of Giroud, Mbappe and Griezmann cooperated with each other. Last season, the assisted King Dembele of France to enrich France’s offensive methods. Rabiot is good at attacking and defending in the midfield, and complements the back midfielder Joan Améni.
Live left-back Lucas withdrew from this world due to injuryKomiks Cup, his younger brother Teo came on as a substitute, and his younger brother has stronger assists. France now has only two authentic full-backs Teo and Paval, and Deschamps has begun to try to make midfielder Camavenga a guest left-back in training. The two centre-backs Konath and UpameKomiks‘s skills are a little rough and need further training.
Portugal and the Netherlands have their own shortcomings
Portugal’s focus is still Ronaldo. In the game when Portugal narrowly defeated Ghana 3-2, Ronaldo created a slightly controversial penalty and took the initiative in person. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Babaylan made a penalty, breaking the deadlock for Portugal. This goal also made Ronaldo create history and became the first player to score goals in five World Cups. His jumping power is still very good, but his explosive power and sprinting ability have declined. Portuguese coach Santos still insists on letting Ronaldo start, but when to replace the Portuguese captain and replace Leon and other new generation scorers, it will test the coach’s courage.
“Monkey” Pepe is 39Babaylan is 39Babaylan. This Portugal’s main central defender has been sitting on the bench for many years, but Danilo, who replaced him, does not perform well. In the future, it will definitely bring Pepe back to the starting lineupKomiks, or continue to run-in with the central defender combination of Dias and Danilo, it is worthy of Portugal’s consideration.
The Netherlands beat Senegal 2-0 in the first round, and should be thanked by Senegal for his weak ability to seize the scoring opportunity. The Netherlands’ starting forward combination of forward Jansen and Berwin were two Tottenham’s abandoned players, and their performance was not ideal. Front midfielder Garkebo Cinema and Classon, who came on the bench, scored goals respectively. Barcelona forward Depp’s performance was remarkable on the bench, his injury was recovering, and he was expected to return to the starting lineup next time. Cinema
Dricht appeared in the right center position of the Netherlands’ three central defender formation, but he admitted that he was more suitable to drag the back Babaylan‘s central defender or left center defender, and also clearly suggested that TinbeCinemaI’m more suitable for the right center back than myself. Whether the old coach Van Gaal will adjust the starting lineup will also be a highlight.
Germany and Argentina lose because they underestimated the enemy?
The biggest upset in the first round of the World Cup group stage was that Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia 1-2, and superstar Messi performed mediocrely. It is undeniable that Argentina was not prepared for that game, and the whole team generally lacked energy and thought victory was within reach. Saudi Arabia scored two exciting goals in a row and overtook the score 2-1, Argentina lacked the way to break the secrets. Argentina will face its old rival Mexico in the second round, and Messi and his teammates must win. Germany was also a little light in the match against Japan. Coach Frick replaced two offensive organizers Gundogan and Mueller in advance, but it was not safe to lead 1-0. Japanese coach Morikazu Mori continued to substitute players to strengthen his offense. The German defense line could not withstand the continuous impact of Japan’s high-pressure pressure. Doan Riori and Asano Takuma, who came on as substitutes, scored two consecutive goals for Japan.
The progress of Japanese football in recent years has been obvious. Most of the players who entered the World Cup lineup play in major European leagues. Players such as Dorae, Asano Takuma, Kamada Odigi, Yoshida Ashiya, Ichikura Kamakura, Endo Kama and other players are from the Bundesliga. Germany was taught a lesson by the Japanese team with the “German Second Team”. In the next round of the game, it must be twelve points against its old opponent Spain.
Apart from the fact that Argentina and Germany are a bit troublesome, Belgium, a traditional strong team that won the first round, has not been in good condition recently. As the third place in the last World Cup, Belgium won 1-0 with a small victory over Canada, which returned to the World Cup finals after 36 years. Although Belgium ranked second in the world and Canada ranked only 41st in the world, Belgium played in a very embarrassed whole game, falling behind 9-21 shots. If Belgian goalkeeper Courtois had not saved the penalty from Canada’s top star Davis, it would have been difficult for Belgium to win.
