With the finalization of the World Cup expansion plan, Oceania will get a full 1 participation quota starting from the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico, and will not need to play in the play-offs.

The Australian team is starting to ponder a return to the Oceania Football Federation.

However, after the expansion of the World Cup, the AFC's world quota will also increase from the current 4.5 to 7 or 8, at least 7, with the strength of the Australian team, the difficulty of staying in the AFC and fighting for the World Cup quota will be much lower than now.

In the end, it is still unknown how the Australian Football Association chooses, and the Dragons don't care about that, they just want to play this game well.

The first round of the World Cup qualifiers for the Asian round of 12 between the Dragons and Australia was arranged at the Olympic Sports Center Stadium in Jiangcheng, Hubei Province.

With the joint cheering of tens of thousands of fans at the scene, as well as tens of millions of Dragon fans in front of TVs and mobile phones, the Dragon Country team defeated the Australian team 3:1 at home and won the top 12 matches!

Shen Feng played well in this game, scoring two goals, and was the biggest contributor to the victory of the Dragon Country team.

Immediately after this match, the Dragons rushed to Japan to prepare for the second round of the round of 12 to be held on September 8 at the home stadium of the Japanese team.

Japan, as the former hegemon of Asia, has not missed the World Cup finals since 1998, when the World Cup was expanded to 32 teams.

The Japanese team has much more experience in playing the top 12 than the Dragon team.

The Dragon Country team has only played three times in the round of 12 (in the 2002 World Cup qualifying stage, it was the top 10), reached the World Cup finals for the first time in 2002, and successfully broke through in the round of 12 for the second time in 2018, three consecutive times, and did not even reach the top 12.

Those ten years were the trough of Dragon Country football!

Now, Dragon Football, which has risen, will definitely not fall outside the threshold of the top 12, that is, in the top 12, facing an opponent like the Japanese team, there is also the confidence to play.

However, in this away game, the Dragon Country team has encountered nearly two years, and the biggest difficulty in the Asian game is even more difficult than the final of the last Asian Cup.

The Japanese team made complete preparations for this game, and in order to limit the Dragon Country team, a new set of tactical play was adopted in this game, which caught the Dragon Country team off guard.

By studying the games and tactics of the Dragon Country team in recent years, the Japanese team confirmed a fact - Shen Feng will not be prevented from death!

All the opponents who focused their defense on Shen Feng proved with the results of the game that they made the wrong choice!

Therefore, in this game, the Japanese team adopted the tactics of letting Shen Feng go alone, strictly guarding against other players of the Dragon Country team, and cutting off the connection between Shen Feng and his teammates, and the results were good.

In the face of the brand-new tactics of the Japanese team, the Dragon Country team, which has become a characteristic sharp attack in the past two years, has come to a standstill and is completely paralyzed.

After halftime, after Lippi made personnel and tactical adjustments to the situation on the field, the attack of the Dragon Country team still did not improve much.

In the absence of anything to do, the Dragon Country team suffered another heavy blow, and was attacked by the Japanese team, and the score fell behind.

In the end, it was Shen Feng who stepped forward and helped the Dragon Kingdom save the situation.

The defense of the Japanese team in this game is said to be a laissez-faire Shen Feng, of course, it is not really undefended against him at all, but it does not put the defensive focus on him, and there is still a defense that should be there.

The Japanese team's brand-new tactics successfully cut off the connection between Shen Feng and his teammates, so that he often fell into a situation of fighting alone in the attack.

In the past, when encountering an unfavorable situation of his own attack, Shen Feng often chose to create more opportunities for his teammates, but in this game, the Japanese team was very successful in defending the other players of the Dragon Country team, and did not leave Shen Feng with too good options for the ball.

Shen Feng can only do it alone!

In the past two seasons of the Inter Milan team, Shen Feng has become accustomed to the teammates around him who can provide him with reliable help, so now in the Dragon Country team, he suddenly encountered a situation where he needed to work alone, and he couldn't adapt for a while.

Fortunately, in the second half of the game, Shen Feng successfully adjusted his mentality, failed to cooperate with his teammates, and went it alone, Shen Feng also had the confidence to break through the goal of the Japanese team.

Shen Feng is now in the "Shenfeng System" attribute table, the value has reached more than 95 points, in terms of personal ability, Shen Feng is now in international football, it can be said that he does not lose to anyone!

Although the strength of the Japanese team is good, it is only a second-rate team in the international arena, and it is simply unrealistic for their players to completely prevent Shen Feng from dying.

After several attempts, Shen Feng finally came to fruition in the seventy-second minute of the game and helped the Dragon Country team equalize.

Shen Feng's goal boosted the morale of the Dragon Country team, and in the remaining 20 minutes of the game, the Dragon Country team attacked aggressively, beating the Japanese team's defense, left and right.

In the 85th minute of the game, the Dragon Country team passed the ball to the Japanese team's goal through a delicate combination, passing the ball to the Japanese team's goal through a delicate combination, and finally Wu Lei made the final decision.

The Japanese team wanted to snipe the Dragon Nation team at home, but so far it fell short.

The Dragons defeated Japan 2-1 away, won two consecutive wins in the round of 12, and took the lead in the battle to qualify for the World Cup finals.

After Shen Feng returned to the Inter Milan team, his state continued to be hot, helping the Inter Milan team to win six consecutive victories in the opening game of the new season in Serie A, and increasing the Inter Milan team's winning streak in Serie A to 48 games!

In the first two rounds of the Champions League group stage, Shen Feng also helped Inter Milan win consecutive victories and took the initiative to qualify from the group.

On October 8, in the third round of the World Cup Qualifiers Asian Top 12, the Dragon Country team hosted the North Korean team.

North Korea is one of the most mysterious countries in the world because of its closed system, and sports are one of the few channels for the country to show itself to the outside world.

North Korea has reached the World Cup finals twice in its history, but the most recent one was the 2010 World Cup in South Africa a decade ago.

In this qualifier, the North Korean team is in the same group as the Dragon Country team, the Japanese team, the Australian team, and the Saudi Arabian team, and there is little hope of qualifying for the World Cup finals.

However, the North Korean team did not give up, and in the first two rounds of matches, they went all out, with a good record of one win and one draw, and are now second in the group standings, second only to the dragon team who won both games.

The performance of the North Korean team gave the Japanese team and the Australian team a great sense of crisis.
