After a two-day break, the World Cup was rekindled, the first to debut is the five-star Brazil and the uncrowned king of the Netherlands, the two teams have played each other three times in the World Cup, Brazil has two wins and one loss, and has the upper hand.

The game also looked to be going well, with a goal scored in the 10th minute to give Brazil the lead, a start that left the Brazilian up and down jubilant and they seemed to have seen a bright prospect of qualifying.

But at this time, one of the Dutch team stepped up and single-handedly drove Brazil into the abyss.

When they are 1-0 down, it can be said that the Dutch team has come to the edge of the cliff, and if the score is maintained at that, the orange team will go home.

In the second half of the game, Sneijder's pass and shot allowed the Dutch team to complete the reversal and finally eliminated the powerful Brazilian team, Sneijder can be called the number one hero.

Before the match with Brazil, the Dutch team also broke out infighting, the two protagonists are Sneijder and Van Persie, the cause of the incident is because, in the game against Slovakia, after Van Persie was replaced, the core of Arsenal was strongly dissatisfied, and he thought that Sneijder should be replaced. This little episode caused quite a stir, but that was all, and when it came to the field, the two aces of the Dutch team focused their attention on the game.

The first half of the Dutch team was arguably awkward, with Brazil taking a 1-0 lead with little effort, and in the second half, the Dutch team woke up from a dream, and Sneijder was undoubtedly the first to ring the alarm bell.

In the 53rd minute, Sneijder took a set-piece in front of the field, and the strange arc drifted into the Brazilian team's penalty area, but the Brazilian defender set up an own goal, and with this lucky goal, the Dutch team equalized.

However, this was only the beginning, and in the following game, the Dutch team gradually took the initiative, and in the 68th minute, the Dutch team took a corner kick, and Sneijder received a team-mate's header to complete the stunner in the same way.

After the game, Sneijder waved his hands happily, and the moment he left the game, Dutch coach Van Marwijk hugged him tightly in his arms, which is also the best compliment to the hero.

After eliminating the Brazilian team and entering the semi-finals, the Dutch team can be said to have a smooth road in this semi-zone, however, the Dutch team cannot be careless, and someone needs to step up at critical moments, and it has been proven through the previous games that Sneijder is undoubtedly the most suitable person.

Five-star Brazil out, Pele's pre-match prediction was shattered again, before the game against the Netherlands, Pele once said confidently: "Brazil will win, Brazil is the most stable of all teams, I think, the future of other teams is unpredictable, only Brazil enters the final without any suspense." ”

It turned out to be the opposite, or rather, Bailey's "crow's mouth" was right again.

This is not the first time that the "crow's beak" has appeared in this World Cup, as Pele has previously said: "I hope that the African team will perform well in this World Cup, and I hope that this World Cup final will be between Brazil and an African team." ”

As a result, only one of the six African teams made it out of the group stage, and the so-called "Brazil African team will meet in the final" was also in vain after the Brazilian team was eliminated.

Compared with the past, it seems that Pele's "crow's mouth" is upgraded, in the past, Pele's home country has some immunity to his "prophecy", after all, in the 2002 World Cup, he had successfully predicted the victory of the Brazilian team over Germany, but this time, Brazil could not avoid his "crow's mouth".

However, Brazil is not the only team that has been overshadowed by the "Pele prophecy", and before that, Pele said: "Brazil and Argentina will meet in the final, but don't ignore Portugal and Spain." ”

Now that Brazil and Portugal are out, it is not known what the fate of Argentina and Spain will be after this round.

After winning Brazil, Dutch coach Van Marwijk said in an interview: "We have a sense of mission, those who laugh at us can stop, you have seen the gorgeous Holland, we have been waiting for this day for two years, in the first half, we really did not play well, I am also worried because the score is 0-1 down." But in the second half we played well, if we had taken our chances, we could have scored four or five goals and it was a good feeling to win against Brazil, but if you give it a compliment, let's save it until the semi-finals. ”

Brazil out!

Before the game, absolutely no one would have imagined that the South African World Cup showed an unusual trend in the first quarter-finals, the Dutch completed the reversal after falling behind 0:1, and the Brazilians fell behind for the first time in the World Cup, and there was no chance again.

After the quarter-finals, Brazil are the undisputed favourites to win the tournament, with bookmakers placing Brazil as the favourites at odds, ahead of Belgium, Argentina and Spain, and much higher than the Netherlands.

However, the Dutchman refused to give in to Brazil, and after being 1-0 down and at a disadvantage, the Orange played a classic comeback, with Cesar's mistake being a watershed moment in the game, and then a set-piece that cost Brazil.

In previous World Cups, the elimination of the Brazilian team will always become a sensational "big event", as a five-time champion, the Samba Army in the past 20 years are historic, in 1990 Maradona blocked the Brazilians from the top 8, in 1998 the French defeated Brazil in the final, four years ago Digan made the Brazilians sad, and now, the Samba World Cup suffers more than the Netherlands.

From 1990 to 2006, Brazilians continued the phenomenon of "winning one championship, not winning the next championship", "not winning one championship, winning the next championship", and "winning the next championship if you don't win the championship, winning the next championship", which was sent to the history museum in 2010.

In this South Africa World Cup, some incredible situations have happened one after another, France has strife, Italy is at the bottom of the group, and England has suffered strange penalties, but since the 1/4 finals Brazil is out, the show seems to have just begun, and the pattern of South America overwhelming Europe has begun to be broken, and the trend is becoming more and more confusing.

Brazil stopped in the quarterfinals of the World Cup, if you want to find the biggest culprit for this game, coach Dunga may be responsible, after the score was equalized, he did not respond immediately, Kaka may also be responsible, but his performance in this game was good enough, the only shortcoming is that when the team is behind, he did not step up.

Who is the biggest sinner?

There is no doubt that it is Melo, and the exit from Brazil is also directly related to Melo's poor performance, in the two goals conceded by the Brazilian team, the Juventus midfielder, who has been controversial this season, contributed an own goal, and the other goal conceded by the Brazilian team, it was also the 170CM tall Sneijder who scored with a header under his marking.

But what Melo shouldn't have been even more deserved was that in the situation of falling behind 1:2, he stretched out his foot and stepped on the leg of Robben who fell to the ground when he could have avoided it, and directly "applied" to the red card.

Anyone watching Melo play for the first time may be surprised by his shocking stupidity, but Serie A fans who are familiar with Melo should not be surprised, because the rough-, simple-minded Brazilian who takes pleasure in fighting and makes a name for himself on impulse, perhaps he simply doesn't have the most basic qualities of a player.

Before practicing football, Mellot worked on kickboxing, a ferocious combat technique that didn't even have a forbidden zone like boxing.

One of Melo's famous quotes was: "If I hadn't played, I would have fought someone else on stage today." ”

He also said that the players he defended should be prepared and when he stretches his foot out, the opponent should not expect him to take his foot back, and this time, his foot was not withdrawn and there was no chance to take it back.

Melo has a bad record in Juventus this season, and in addition to constant yellow cards, his rough technique is intolerable to the media and fans in Torino, and he has also had a face-to-face argument with coach Zaccheroni.

Maybe Melo's poor performance disappointed Juventus, they originally hoped to sell him for a good price, but now it seems that Melo can only depreciate and depreciate, in fact, Italian reporters have not figured out why Juventus, who has always been shrewd in business, would buy such a bad baby at such a high price of 24.5 million.

After the game, former Brazilian star Ronaldo tweeted his opinion directly, Ronaldo wrote: "Melo should not go back to Brazil for a holiday! ”

Since Twitter is just a microblog, Ronaldo didn't explain much, maybe Ronaldo is worried about Melo, afraid that he will be treated as a sinner after returning to Brazil, or Ronaldo is blaming Melo, but no matter what, Brazil has been eliminated, and all remarks cannot recover the 1:2 defeat.

In short, Brazil has withdrawn from the title race early, and the dream of five champions Brazil's six crowns was ruthlessly shattered by the Dutch, and after the game, coach Dunga said that he may not be the coach of Brazil again.

'We were all very sad, we didn't expect it, we played well in the first half but we didn't maintain the same rhythm in the second half, we didn't concentrate all the time, the World Cup is 90 minutes, the details determine the final result, unfortunately we lost in the World Cup.

In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, the luxurious samba army stopped in the quarterfinals, after four years of preparation, the Brazilian team was full of confidence, under the leadership of Dunga, the new samba army won the Copa America, but the Brazilian team aiming to win the championship once again stopped in the quarterfinals.

"We prepared for four years, we gave a lot and we were sad to lose," Brazil coach Dunga said in his post-match press conference.

After losing the quarter-finals, Dunga said he would not remain in Brazil, and when asked about his future, Dunga said: "We know that I was going to play only four years since I took charge of Brazil, and we were sad, it was all tough, no one was prepared for failure. ”

Dunga succeeded Andreas Pereira as Brazil's coach after the 2006 World Cup in Germany, which was just after the World Cup in Germany. Dunga was a very strong midfielder as a player and helped Brazil win the World Cup in 1994.

Dunga's management of Brazil has taken everyone by surprise because he has no coaching experience before that, and his first decision was to remove veterans such as Cafu, Ronaldo and Carlos from the national team. Then, he lost patience with Ronaldinho and excluded him from the 23-man squad for the World Cup in South Africa.

Dunga won the Copa America in 2007 and qualified for the World Cup as top spot in South America, but many fans disliked his team's counter-attacking style.

However, in fact, Dunga has done well enough, a young coach with no coaching experience, leading a brand new team, appearing on the World Cup stage, and giving several wonderful games to the fans, it can be said that Dunga's performance is completely passable.

"I have a clear conscience, it's not like I don't want to win, but unfortunately in the end we still lost, what else can I say? My players have done a great job and I have nothing to blame them for, we all did what we had to do. ”

Following Dunga's resignation, the position of Brazilian national team coach is vacant, and according to a previous statement from the Brazilian Football Federation, they will announce a new manager at the end of this month.

Speculation about the choice of the coach of the Brazilian national team has not stopped, including the coach Scolari, who led the Brazilian team to the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan.

And Scolari himself seems to be very interested in the position: "It's an honour, to come back to Brazil after many years abroad, people still remember me and want me to be the head coach of Brazil, I don't say that I will no longer coach the national team, it's a natural thing, I do have a good chance of leading my country to the World Cup in 2014 and after eight years without the national team, I will come back when my country hosts the World Cup." ”

In the 2002 World Cup, Scolari was the head coach of the Brazilian national team, leading the Brazilian team to win all seven games. And in the 2006 World Cup, he led Portugal to the semi-finals. He still holds the record of 12 consecutive World Cup wins.

Returning to this game, the Netherlands and Brazil are recognized as advocates of artistic football, but this meeting between the two teams has nothing to do with art, style, gorgeousness, and fluidity.

The Netherlands and Brazil each committed 20 fouls in the game, the most fouls since the knockout round, with the exception of 120 minutes of brutal performances by Japan and Paraguay.

Leaving aside the final result of the Netherlands' 2-1 elimination of Brazil, those 40 fouls meant that the game was interrupted 40 times. A football match that could have been a flashy flow was torn apart, with a reputation for the Netherlands and Brazil, and even more disappointing for the fans who supported them.

Two of the Dutch team's key defensive players, right-back De Ville and defender Frenkie de Jong, will be suspended for the semi-finals due to frequent fouls in this game.

The Netherlands have not reached a final since the 1978 World Cup and faced their most important semi-final in 32 years, paying the price for their brutal absence of important players.

Rough fouls are often a trick that a weak team has to use against a strong team, and the big guys, who are always on the offensive, should be the target of the offense, not the perpetrator.

Brazil is the epitome of "samba football", while the Netherlands is an advocate of "all-in attack", and when these two teams throw away their traditions, the underprivileged who have always wanted to draw nourishment from these two teams will surely not know what to do.

Fans must have disliked teams like Brazil and the Netherlands, which were originally artistic and suddenly played brutally and utilitarianly, and they gave teams that played in this way an indecent name: "lewd stream" football.

Dutch coach Donny van Marwijk is adamant: "It's a long time gone in all hands and in all hands. ”

All-out attack and defense have always been the representative of Dutch football, but Lao Fan now seems to be annoyed, with a competitor like the Netherlands, it is difficult for Brazil to "stand alone".

Football matches are played in confrontation all the time, and emotions can be contagious in physical collisions and constant fouls. Maybe Brazil really wanted to play a good game, but the Dutch team still used their old style to get Brazil back to their old ways, so tackles, elbows and constant whistles replaced clever passes, powerful shots and mercury-like attacks.

There's nothing wrong with trying to win, but when two teams frequently use fouls in order to win, and abandon the attacking style they've held for years, the allure of football fades, because football is more than just wins.

A disappointing game, a surprising ending, Kaka and his Brazilian team had no choice but to say goodbye to South Africa, Kaka left in a hurry, and didn't even call Digan, the two brothers' previous agreement, now it seems that they can only wait until the next time, goodbye in Brazil.

In an interview, when asked about Brazil's elimination, Digan only said helplessly: "It looks like I have to think of another way to compete with Ricardo on the court!" ”

No one understood Degan's words, and by the time people understood, a big enough event to shock the entire world football had already settled.
