MM Racing Chapter 290
Chapter 290
After one night, Portugal rushed to Manaus the next morning.
The second game against Team USA will be played at the Amazon Arena in Manaus.
With the first round of group games all over, the overall picture of the World Cup is much clearer.
For ordinary fans, it is enough not to analyze the team's tactics, just to look at the results of the game.
Portugal is hot!
With one less fight, they still played a 4-1 4-1 for Germany, the second-favorite to win the title.
Many ordinary fans understand that once the score reaches a 3-0 or 4-1 victory, then the two teams in the game are likely not teams of the same strength.
Germany had always been third in the World Cup odds table.
But even so, Germany was still cleaned up by Portugal without temper!
It is enough to show that the Portuguese national team is completely unique in this World Cup!
Even the host Brazil, who won the first match, will hardly be able to cause Portugal much trouble.
However, outside of Portugal, the Dutch team, which beat Spain, is also very favored and has become a dark horse that is not a dark horse.
Others, such as France, Argentina, Belgium and Italy, have also overcome their opponents and made a good start.
And as unlucky as the German team, it is Spain and England.
Spain lost to the Netherlands, England lost to Italy, plus Germany, which lost to Portugal, and the three unlucky eggs of the first round of the World Cup were born!
You know, there are only three rounds in the group stage.
Losing one means that there can be no more mistakes in the next two games.
Otherwise, it will be the rhythm of going home directly after the group stage!
Germany is okay, although it lost to Portugal, whether it is Ghana or the United States, the strength is combined, as long as the German team adjusts its state, the group qualification is actually not a big problem.
But whether it is Spain or England, the situation is not optimistic at all.
Chile and Australia, who are in the same group as Spain, are not easy to deal with.
England faced Uruguay and Costa Rica.
Spinach's odds for Spain and England are not high, which means they both believe that the two giants are likely to go home after the group stage.
Sure enough, the big game is the litmus test of a team's true strength.
And when the situation is starting to clear, everyone has begun to predict the knockout matchup.
According to the rules, groups G and H are paired to fight.
The first place in Group G will face the second place in Group H in the top half.
The first place in Group H will face the second place in Group G in the second half.
For Portugal, the opponent after qualifying from the group will be one of the four teams in Group H.
The four teams in Group H are Belgium, Russia, Algeria and Baseball Country.
In the first round of the group stage, the relatively slow Belgium narrowly won Algeria, while Russia played to a draw with the tenacious baseball country.
From the analysis of the two matches, Belgium is definitely the strongest, there is no doubt about this.
And Russia's strength is also stronger than Algeria and the baseball country.
Algeria and baseball are not much different in strength, and the two are more dependent on the on-the-spot performance.
According to the general forecast, Belgium has little problem in first place in the group, and Russia is most likely to win second place in the group.
That said, Portugal has a good chance of meeting Russia in the round of 16.
Like, the look of being escorted again.
Even if Russia has the strength of the World Cup round of 16, it is really difficult to have much resistance in front of Portugal.
This is the quarterfinals?
As for who else the eight finalists can meet, the suspense is relatively large and difficult to predict.
But regardless, most people feel that Portugal's road to World Cup victory will be smooth.
......
The second round of the group stage has begun.
However, the performance of the teams in the second round of the group stage is a bit confusing.
Brazil, the host country that started well, was forced to draw by Mexico.
And in the game, it seems that Mexico is better overall, and if Brazil were not lucky, Mexico would have won.
As the second-place favourites to win the World Cup, Brazil's performance was a bit disappointing.
After this match, many voices of the singing hosts were very loud.
But this is not for nothing, but everyone is not optimistic about Brazil.
With Brazil's current state, even if the group qualification is not a big problem, it is really difficult to predict how far it will end up.
If you don't get it right, it's not impossible to be eliminated just after entering the knockout round.
And in Group B, Spain was even worse and was directly eliminated!
Lost to the Netherlands in the first round, and lost to Chile in this round, not scoring a single point in both rounds.
With the Netherlands and Chile winning two in a row, Spain are doomed to lose even if they win the last game against Australia.
Probably before the start of the World Cup, no one would have thought that the defending champion would be eliminated in two games and go home.
Even if Spain's pass-and-control tactics have been effectively targeted in world football, no one can ignore Spain's strength.
And now, this ending means that Spain's transmission control is completely dead.
Colombia in Group C have won two straight and have already sealed qualification early.
Jristiano Ronaldo's performance is eye-catching and is currently considered the biggest discovery of this World Cup.
And Xu Ning knows that after the World Cup in the previous life, J Ronaldo will join Real Madrid with the halo of the World Cup Golden Boot, and the limelight is unmatched.
But this time, with Xu Ning here, although J Luo will also be very beautiful, he is destined to not reach the height of his previous life.
At least the Golden Boot Jristiano Ronaldo doesn't have to think about it.
In Group D, the situation is chaotic.
Italy, who defeated England in the first game, were unexpectedly won by Costa Rica, with one win and one loss to accumulate 3 points;
Costa Rica, considered the weakest in the group, defeated Uruguay in the first round and won Italy in an incredible way, and with 6 points, they have already sealed the qualification for the group in advance;
Uruguay beat England in this round, and like Italy, one win and one loss accumulated three points;
Only England's wounded world was reached!
Like Spain, the Three Lions, who lost both battles, had already returned home early, and there was not even the slightest theoretical possibility of qualifying.
This situation plunged the whole of England into collapse.
Even if English club Manchester City just won the Champions League, it does not mean that the English national team has the ability to make a difference in the World Cup.
England, which was extremely high-profile before the game, was really tired at this time like a dog who lost its family, and it was more embarrassing and embarrassing.
However, Xu Ning felt that this was normal.
Don't look at England, it always looks strong, but that's what it can actually play.
It is natural to kick Italy, after all, in a sense, Italy's style is restrained by England.
Uruguay, on the other hand, was one of the top four teams in the last World Cup, and its strength has not declined much.
When they were assigned to this group, in fact, England's chances were already small.
