Chapter 344: Before the Finals

Argentina and Brazil met in the Confederations Cup final, and everyone from FIFA to the media to most of the fans was very happy with the result. You know, Argentina and Brazil can be said to be the two most famous teams in this Confederations Cup, and they are also the two teams with the most stars. It is naturally quite rare and extremely eye-catching for them to meet in the final and stage a strong conversation!

Perhaps the only people who are unhappy are the German Football Association (DFB) and the German fans, who are the organizers of the tournament. Because in their imagination, it should have been Germany as the hosts, not Argentina led by Riquelme, who would have appeared in the final. But I didn't expect Brazil to release water so seriously in the group stage, and was squeezed into the second place in the group by Mexico, and met Germany in the semifinals in advance!

But this is also something that can't be helped, how Brazil plays is their own business, no matter how well the German Football Association plans, in the case that the overall strength is not comparable to the other party, it can only resign itself to the face of Brazil.

Although George was keen to travel to Leipzig to watch the third-place match between Germany and Mexico, the organizers had put the final on the same day as the third-place final, so after some hesitation, George chose to return to Frankfurt and watch the Confederations Cup final between Argentina and Brazil with Beckenbauer at the Forest Stadium!

Compared to the German team on the road to revival under Klinsmann, Brazil and Argentina are stronger overall, and George is also interested in taking a closer look at Kaka to see if the San Siro prince's style of play can fit into Tottenham now!

Although Galliani and the elder Berlusconi have always been resolute in their refusal to sell Kaka, George has always been a thief and wants to dig the Brazilian into the White Hart Lane stadium to create a super front field that belongs to Tottenham. Not to mention, in the eyes of George, who knows where the future is going, poaching Kaka from AC Milan is not an impractical thing. After all, in a few years, the whole world will be dragged down by the subprime mortgage crisis caused by the death of the Americans, and Lao Bei's wallet will also shrink sharply under that economic crisis, and AC Milan, without Lao Bei's support, will have to reduce the fiscal deficit by selling the main players. At that point, it's George's best chance to poach Kaka!

"I think Brazil have the best chance of winning this trophy. In an interview with Bild, when asked which side he would like to win the Confederations Cup, George did not hesitate to support Brazil, "Brazil have top players on all three fronts, Lucio and Dida lead the defence, Emerson and Ze Roberto in midfield both offensive and defensive, Ronaldinho, Adriano and Kaka are the best attacking combination in front. Their head coach is Andreas Pereira, who has led Brazil to a World Cup title, and is well in control of this Brazilian team and makes them play according to his tactics. So, I can't think of any reason why they should lose this final!"

"George, are you so optimistic about Brazil winning the championship?" Putting down the newspaper carrying George's remarks, Elizabeth asked puzzled, "Argentina also has first-class stars such as Riquelme, Cambiasso and Zanetti, and Pekerman is still an excellent tactician, why is it not possible to beat Brazil? Don't forget, less than a month ago, Coach Pekerman led Argentina to defeat Brazil 3-1 in the World Cup qualifiers!"

"Eli, Argentina's book squad does look strong, but it cannot be denied that the overall strength of Argentine football over the years has actually been declining. Now that Samuel has lost the trust of Pekerman, they don't have a reliable player at the back, otherwise they wouldn't have been beaten by Germany in the group stage. In response to Ily's question, George expressed his opinion seriously, "As for Brazil, as I said in the interview, they don't have any obvious weaknesses at all. Moreover, Adriano, who plays as the main center forward, is a form striker. A player of his type, once he comes, feels like he is going against the rhythm. And judging from the current situation, Ade's form in this Confederations Cup is clearly quite good. ”

The reason why Brazil in the previous life stopped in the quarterfinals of the World Cup in Germany a year later was not because of the lack of strength of the Samba Army, but because of other problems - Pereira, who was back in charge of the coaching whip of the Samba Army, no longer had the courage to oust Rayi in the face of the scolding of fans across the country, and the "magic quartet" (that is, letting Adriano, Ronaldo, Kaka and Ronaldo play at the same time) in order to balance the relationship between many big names in the front court only looks beautiful, but the actual effect can only be described as terrible. And trusting Cafu and Carlos, two veterans, and refusing to give young people a chance, is also another failure of Pereira!

And now, because Ronaldo, Carlos and Cafu and other members of the 02 World Cup champion team did not participate in this Confederations Cup, Brazil's problem has not been exposed, and the lineup combination seems very reasonable. In particular, the main players such as Emerson, Ronaldo, Adriano and Cicinho all ushered in the peak of their careers this year, which further increased the possibility of Brazil winning!

On the other hand, Argentina, Pekerman is indeed first-class at the tactical level, and the national team formed with Riquelme as the core has also shown considerable strength, but the deformed personnel composition has become the fatal wound of the Pampas Eagles. The instability at the back and the lack of qualified wide attackers make it easy for Argentina to be chased by opponents because of their weaknesses, while Pekerman's tactical ideas are difficult to implement and implement perfectly!

The most critical thing is that in the previous World Cup qualifiers, facing Brazil, who did not give their best, Pekerman's Argentina exposed too many hole cards. For a manager of Pereira's level, this period of time is enough for him to formulate a targeted tactical arrangement for the weaknesses in the Argentine squad!

While George and Elisabeth were waiting for the final in the VIP box at the Forest Stadium, the third and fourth Confederations Cup finals at Leipzig's Centre Court had already been decided, with Ballack's extra-time goal as hosts Germany narrowly beat Mexico 4-3 to finish third in the Confederations Cup!
