During the period when the Chinese team was preparing for Spain, the World Cup group stage was constantly running.
All the group matches have been played for two rounds. At this time, who can qualify and who will be eliminated is basically clear.
In the second round of Group C, Group C, Colombia defeated Côte d'Ivoire 2-1, two wins and two wins, qualifying in advance. Japan's 0-0 draw with Greece, only one point after two rounds of play, has basically bid farewell to this World Cup knockout. In the final round, the Japanese team will play against the strongest team in this group, and it is difficult to win.
In the second round of Group D group matches, England has lost a game against Uruguay, which is a battle against the water. If they want to emerge from this group, they must defeat Uruguay. But the final result was surprising. England lost to Uruguay 1-2, losing both games and leaving early. The news really shocked England. The pre-match championship was popular, but now it is eliminated one round ahead of schedule, which is a shame. However, other than the English themselves, others are not surprised by this result...
England won the championship at the World Cup in front of their own home, and the performance at other times was not a hot title. Their powerful strength was completely blown out by the developed media in England...
In another group match, Italy who won a game only needs to defeat Costa Rica to qualify from the group in advance, but the unpopularity again revealed that Italy lost to Costa Rica 0:1! Costa Rica, which has defeated Uruguay and Italy, has qualified from this group in advance. In the grouping, it is considered that this group is the weakest. Costa Rica, who is the target of other teams, has become the first team to qualify. Costa Rica has been called the largest dark horse in the World Cup by the media...
In the second round of Group E, Switzerland and France met. The two teams staged a scoring battle. In the end, the French team defeated Switzerland 5:2. They also advanced to the group.
Ecuador defeated Honduras 2-1. In the final round of the group stage, both Ecuador and Switzerland have the hope of qualifying for the group, but Switzerland's opponent is Honduras who is out early, and Ecuador will have to face a strong France.
Group F Argentina encountered Iran in the second round of the group stage. They thought they could easily win, so they advanced in advance, but they were embarrassed by Iran. They didn’t rely on Messi’s direct free kick to score until the 90th minute. Iran. Get a three-pointer to qualify early.
The match between Nigeria and Bosnia and Herzegovina was also 1:0, and Nigeria won. Now Nigeria has four points and Iran has one point, and Bosnia and Herzegovina have lost both games and have been eliminated early. In the final round of the group stage, Nigeria faced Argentina. Bosnia and Herzegovina fought against each other. If Iran wanted to qualify for the group, they must defeat Bosnia and Herzegovina in the final match and hope Nigeria loses to Argentina. There may be no suspense in Nigeria’s loss to Argentina, but it is not easy to say whether Iran can beat Bosnia-Herzegovina...
In Group G, Germany, in a highly optimistic situation, unexpectedly played with Ghana to a 2:2 draw. If it is not Klose's substitute goal savior, the German team may even lose this game. Klosedi's goal also allowed him to tie Brazil's legendary striker Ronaldo's total World Cup goals. The two of them scored 15 World Cup goals together, ranking first in the World Cup's historical scorer list.
The United States and Portugal also played 2:2.
In this way, Germany and the United States are all four points, Portugal and Ghana are one point, the final round of the group stage, Germany played the United States, Portugal played Ghana. Anyone can appear, and anyone can be eliminated, which is quite complicated. In the first game, 4-0 victory over Portugal, the German team considered to be the most popular champion, may even be eliminated. For Portugal led by Cristiano Ronaldo, if you want to qualify, you have to hope that the German team beat the United States, and they have to beat Ghana by a big score. Only then can they rely on the net with the United States team. The advantage of winning the ball crowded out the United States. But because they lost 0:4 in the first game, the goal difference is -4, and the United States team is now a goal difference, the gap between the two sides is five goals, they must first ensure that they have a minimum goal difference of Ghana Four goals, and then hope that the United States will lose at least two goals to the German team, so that they can get an advantage in the goal difference, but it is quite difficult, because Ghana also wants the group qualifying, they will not sit still.
In the second round of the Group H group match, Belgium defeated Russia 1:0, two wins and two wins, qualifying in advance. Before the South Korean team faced Algeria, which is said to be the weakest in the group, the domestic media were very ambitious and believed that the team could beat Algeria. In that case, the chance of them appearing with four points would greatly increase. As a result, they lost to Algeria 2:4 in this game. After the two, they only scored one point. In the final round, they will face the strongest Belgium in this group. It can be said that the hope of the group is very slim.
At this point, the second round of all teams is over. From the point of view, the performance of the four Asian teams is not satisfactory.
The Chinese opponent scored two points, and in the final round they will be knocked out with Spain.
Japan, Iran and South Korea all scored only one point, and the hope of qualifying is very slim, only in theory.
The Chinese team wants to qualify a little bit easier, as long as they can beat Spain without having to look at others. If the other three teams want to qualify, they have to meet very demanding conditions and have to look at other people's faces.
So far, the four Asian teams have not even had a victory in this World Cup, which is very different from the performance of the last World Cup. In the last World Cup, two teams in Asia finally entered the knockout stage. It was the best Asian team in the World Cup after the 2002 World Cup. Since then, Asian football has ambitiously wanted to play in the world football. The altar seeks a more important position. As a result, this time it was beaten back to the prototype.
Originally, the Chinese team has also attracted much attention. They performed well in the qualifiers. The team also has a number of first-class players who are overseas in Europe. Who would have thought that before the opening of the World Cup, their core Zhou Yi was injured in the Champions League final, resulting in the absence of two World Cup group matches, the two World Cup group matches, the Chinese team only got two draws.
Now that the final round of the group stage is about to start, the fate and glory of Asian football may be here.
