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 Spain 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 at Cinema, and the 2014 World Cup runner-up Germany and Argentina lost in the first round. 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. Head coach Titt led his disciples to play the pleasing offensive football. In Brazil’s 4-1-2-3 attack formation, almost everyone can become the offensive explosive point. Center Richarlison took charge of two goals, and Neymar, one of the double midfielders, was able to command the offense with ease. Left winger Junior continued his hot state at 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 “Matador” turned the first round of the World Cup group stage into a training match.
In the first round, Spanish coach Enrique put center Morata on the bench and sent out a set of strikeless formations. Real Madrid winger Asensio is at the center position, the two wingers are Ormo and Ferran Torres, and three midfielders Busquets, Ped Komiks and Gavi are all from Barcelona. There is no Spanish starting lineupThe center of the official seal, Cinema, 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.
English and French talents have produced strong firepower
England is the runner-up in the European Cup, and France is the defending champion of the World Cup. The two traditional strong teams also 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 famous for their tall figure, strong play style and strong confrontational ability. The “Three Lions” coached by Southgate also has delicate foot skills, which further improves their competitiveness. Previously, England, which had 3 draws and 3 losses, performed poorly in the European League group stage, and was considered to be a competition for the world’s Babaylan‘s “Save a FullBabaylan‘s “Babaylan‘s “Babaylan‘s “Babaylan‘s “Babaylan‘s “Babaylan‘s “Babaylan”” in the world. When we arrived at the World Cup, not only did the Mesozoic Kane and Cinema Lin perform stably, but the post-00s newcomers such as Bellingham, Saka, and Foden also staged a “youth storm”. Similar to Brazil, England’s bench depth is enviable, and Rashford, Gallish, 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 was extremely threatening, but the “Malaysia aircraft carrier” turned 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, Kante, Menion, and Nkunku failed to participate in this World Cup, French coach Germany is still at ease when deploying troops. The offensive combination Giroud, who was the main player in the last World Cup, was named after the offensive team.comicmov.com/”>Komiks Mbappe and Griezmann cooperated with tacit understanding. Last season, the assist King Dembele of the La Liga last season enriched France’s offensive methods. Rabiot is good at attacking and defending in the midfield, and complements the midfielder Joan Améni.
Live left-back Lucas withdrew from the World Cup due to injury. 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 appearance as a left-back in training. The two central defenders Konath and Upamecano are a little rough in their skills and need further training.
Portugal and the Netherlands have their own shortcomings
Peo’s focus manCinema is still Cristiano Ronaldo. In the game when Portugal narrowly defeated Ghana 3-2, Cristiano Ronaldo made a slightly controversial penalty and took the penalty himself to break the deadlock for Portugal. This goal also made Cristiano Ronaldo create history and became the first player to score goals in five World Cups. His bounce ability is still very good, but his explosive power and sprint ability have declined. Portugal coach Santos still insists on letting Cristiano Ronaldo start, but when to replace the Portuguese captain and replace the new generation scorers such as Leon, it will test the coach’s courage.
The “Monk” Pepe is 39 years old, and this Portugal’s main central defender for many yearsBabaylan has been on the bench in this game, but Danilo, who played for him, did not perform well. In the future, whether to let Pepe return to the starting lineup or Cinema continue to run-in with the central defender combination of Dias and Danilo, it is worthy of Portugal’s consideration.
The Netherlands defeated Senegal 2-0 in the first round, and should thank Senegal for his weak ability to seize the scoring opportunity. The Dutch starting forward combination of Jansen and Berwin in that game were two hot players.Babaylan‘s performance was ignored. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>CinemaThinking that front midfielder Garkepo and substitute Klassen scored goals respectively. Barcelona forward Depp’s substitute performance was remarkable, his injury was recovering, and he is expected to return to the starting lineup next.
Dricht appeared in the right center back position of the Netherlands’ three central defender formation, but he admitted that he was more suitable for dragging the back center back or left center back, and clearly suggested that Timbert was more suitable for the right center back than himself. Whether the old coach Van Gaal will adjust the starting lineup will also be a highlight.
GermanyIs Genesis losing underestimating 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 intensive defense. Argentina will face its old rival Mexico in the second round, and Messi and his teammates must win.
Germany also underestimated the opponent in the game against Japan. Head coach Frick replaced two offensive organizers, Gundogan and Muller, in advance, but it was not safe to lead 1-0. Japanese coach Morikazu Mori continued to substitute and strengthen his offense. The German defense line could not withstand the continuous impact of Japan’s high-pressure pressing. Dora Riori and Asa, who came on the bench, scored two 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. Dorari, Asahi, Komiks, Kamada Odiki, Yoshida Maya, Ichikura Kamakura, and Komiks are from the Bundesliga. Germany was taught a lesson by the Japanese team with the “Germany Second National 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 returned to Canada, which was the World Cup finals after 36 years with a 1-0 win. 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.
