Chapter 210: Three Musketeers!
Soon, June came, and the weather began to get hot. It is not the sun that makes the whole world hotter, but the upcoming German World Cup. Heroes from all walks of life are working hard and actively preparing. Fans are also preparing for this quadrennial football event!
Millions of fans began to flock to Germany, and they concentrated their year-long holidays on this time. The World Cup is a grand event in the world of football, how could they not participate. It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of sex service providers who follow the fans into Germany, and they want to use the World Cup to increase their income.
The whole month of June will be football, and the whole world will revolve around football!
When it comes to the biggest favorites to win this World Cup, it is none other than Brazil, and the five-star Brazilian luxury midfield is the biggest guarantee for them to compete for the championship. The midfield composed of Ronnie, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Adriano and Robinho is worth more than 200 million euros and is the most expensive midfield in the world.
The Brazilian media described the Brazilian team as the strongest in history, and Ronnie's return to the top was evidenced by his goal in the Champions League. Kaka also scored in the Champions League final, and Brazil occupied two of the "horror trio" that was popular all over Europe.
There are plenty of highlights for Brazil, with the British Sun reporting six of them:
First of all, whether Ronnie can break the World Cup personal record for total goals. Ronnie scored a total of 12 goals in the '98 and '02 World Cups, just two goals behind Muller's 14. With Ronnie's current level of competition, coupled with his excellent performance after his comeback this season, as long as there are no major surprises, Ronnie will break this record without any suspense. What number will his goal reach? It's worth looking forward to.
If Ronaldo can lead Brazil to a sixth trophy while breaking the record, there is no doubt that Ronnie will leave Zinedine Zidane behind and become the third champion.
The second point is whether Ade can complete the "hat trick" of combining the best player, the best scorer, and the championship team in one "hat" trick. The 04 Copa America and the 05 Confederations Cup were crowned with the best player, top scorer and champion team.
Can Ade achieve a big explosion in the World Cup after being in the doldrums for most of the season, and complete the unprecedented Copa America, Confederations Cup, and World Cup. Achieve a super hat trick that combines three of the highest honors in one. If. If Ade can do this, I'm afraid there will be no one in the future.
Thirdly, whether Carlos can score a free-kick in the World Cup again. In the Korea-Japan World Cup in 02, Carlos once scored China's goal with a free kick. That's also Carlos at the World Cup. The only free kick scored. Zero six years. In front of Brazil's many free-kick masters. We'll have to wait and see if Carlos still has a chance to score again.
Fourth, whether Ronaldinho can complete the hat-trick of the World Footballer of the Year. As everyone knows. In the World Cup year, it is not surprising that the World Footballer is always the player who performs well in the World Cup. After being re-elected as the World Footballer of the Year twice in a row, whether Ronaldinho can be re-elected in the second time depends entirely on his performance in the World Cup.
If Ronaldinho can lead Brazil to victory, it is possible to create a miracle of three consecutive titles. Similarly, if he can lead Brazil to win the World Cup, he will fight back hard against Tang Jue, because before the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Tang Jue once called him a "coward". This World Cup is his best chance to prove himself.
Fifth, whether Cafu can win the World Cup again, Cafu has participated in three World Cup since 94, two championships and one runner-up. If Brazil had won the title in '06, Cafu would have equalled Pele's record and completed the feat of winning the World Cup three times.
Sixth, can Brazil and Argentina meet in the finals of the World Cup again after reaching the finals in the American State Cup and the Confederations Cup. The first two finals ended in Brazil's victory, and if the South American duo meet in the final, I don't know who will kill this time? It's worth the wait.
However, according to the law of winning the World Cup, this World Cup is held on the European continent and should be won by European teams. Can Brazil break this pattern? Their great strength is the biggest point of support.

British bookmakers offer odds for the top 32, and the top 10 are: Brazil, England, Argentina, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, and the Czech Republic. Brazil are undoubtedly in first place at 3.75, while France are in fourth place with 7.85.
This is also related to the excellent performance of Tang Jue, according to the bookmaker, without Tang Jue's outstanding performance this season, France would be ranked behind Spain in seventh place. Tang's sudden rise has raised the French team's ranking by three places. It's extremely rare for a player to improve his team's noun and improve it so much.
The team newspaper looks forward to France's World Cup journey: having a luxurious midfield is the guarantee for the French team to compete in the Hercules Cup. With Thierry Henry reaching the pinnacle of his career and Tang Jue's sudden rise, France's forward line is worth looking forward to.
The first point to watch for the French team is whether Zidane can lead the aging French team to win the World Cup again before he retires. It is an indisputable fact that the French midfielder is older. Age is a burden for the French team, and it is also a valuable asset for the French team, who can calmly face all kinds of situations that occur in the game.
If the French team can win the World Cup, Zidane is likely to win the fourth World Footballer of the Year. Of course, if Tang has a good performance, he will be his biggest competitor.
The second point to watch is whether Tang Jue can achieve the triple crown. He used to say this season that he wanted to win the treble, and now he has completed the first two titles, and only the last one is left to achieve the treble. According to his character, he will definitely not let go of this opportunity.
Whether Tang Jue can have an excellent performance in his first World Cup, whether he can win all the top scorers in the three events of Serie A, Champions League and World Cup and achieve the triple crown of the top scorer is also a highlight. This season, Tang Jue has emerged in Serie A and the Champions League and has become the hottest new star. In every crucial game, he always has the best performance, and has repeatedly eliminated Milan from defeat. Save it.
But after all, the World Cup is different from Serie A and the Champions League, this is the biggest stage in the World Cup, and the eyes of hundreds of millions of fans are focused on it. Many superstars have fallen on the stage of the World Cup, the Dutch Three Musketeers shined in the European Cup in 88 and won the championship, and in the 90 World Cup in the first round of the knockout round, they were defeated by the West German team that won the championship the most.
The pressure of the World Cup is unprecedented, and fans throughout the country will follow their teams, and this pressure is many times stronger than at the club. Will Don never get rid of what the Spanish media say again. Face your first major match. We will wait and see the rules that cannot be played normally.
The World Cup is more important than the Champions League, and we will be full of anticipation of what kind of state Tang Jue will appear in front of the fans. If Tang Jue has an excellent performance in the World Cup. He was able to help France win their second World Cup. He will undoubtedly be the world's strongest contender for the Footballer of the Year.
If he gets the World Footballer of the Year. It will break Ronnie's record of winning the World Footballer of the Year at the age of 20 and become the youngest World Footballer in history.
The third attraction is Henry, who has reached his peak. Whether you can prove yourself in this world is as good as the club and the national team. The appearance of Tang Jue has undoubtedly reduced the media's attention to him, which will reduce the pressure on his shoulders. For him, that's a good thing.
The fourth point of interest is whether Domenech can replicate Milan's "horror trio" in the French team, the trio of Zidane, Tang Jue, and Henry is comparable to the Milan horror trio in terms of strength. If Domenech can do that, France will have a big impact at the World Cup.
Perhaps another trio will be born at this World Cup. We might as well call them "the three musketeers!" ”
In European football, at different times, there have been combinations named after the "three musketeers". The Yugoslav Red Star Belgrade team in 91 years ascended to the throne of European football, in which the captain Savicevic is an excellent dribbling master in the midfield, the No. 9 striker Pantsev is a talented shooter with superb marksmanship, and the 22-year-old European Footballer of the Year runner-up Prosineski is a classic of artistic football, and people call them "Red Star Three Musketeers".
Yugoslavia's Savicević, Pantsev, and Prosinessky were also once known as the "Three Balkan Musketeers".
The three musketeers are from the novel of the same name by French writer Alexandre Dumas, and now that the French team finally has the opportunity to put that name on their heads, Domenech will not pass up this opportunity.

German Kicker magazine has analysed the trip to the World Cup in Germany:
Despite the abundance of European football powerhouses, if one had to choose one of the kings of Europe, Germany would be the ones to be elected. The Germans have always relied on their iron will and strict tactical discipline to achieve brilliant results in Europe and the world, and the three-time World Cup championship and three European Championship championships are enough to show the greatness of the German team.
Although the overall level of German football has seriously declined after England's European Championship victory in 1996, and their poor results in the 1998 World Cup in France and the 2000 European Championship in the Netherlands-Belgium have been poor, they have won the runner-up in the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan by virtue of their super overall combat ability, and once again impressed the world.
Since Jurgen Klinsmann took charge of the national team, the German team has not had a good record in friendly matches, but who can be sure that the "Golden Bomber" will not be able to reproduce the glory of the 1998 Jacques team to win the World Cup without being favored by the world?
In addition, Kahn, Metzelde, Ballack, Klos and other fierce players will not give up the opportunity to win the cup on home soil, and Germany is definitely one of the favorites to win the World Cup this year.
With the growth of young players such as Lahm, the German team is gradually recovering, and this may be Ballack's last World Cup, and he will not give up the opportunity to win the title on home soil and become another great captain in the history of the German team.
As the hosts, the German team has the advantage of being in the right place at the right time. Uruguay won the first World Cup in 1930, followed by Italy in 1934, England in 1966, West Germany in 1974, Argentina in 1978 and France in 1998.
In the previous 16 World Cups, the host won the championship six times, and Germany has also had such an experience. I believe that Klinsmann also wants to become a head coach like the "football emperor" Beckenbauer, and when he is a player and a head coach, he wins the World Cup.
The tough German tank, in this World Cup, will not disappoint German fans. We look forward to seeing them do well! (To be continued......)
