The group stage of the World Cup in Brazil has entered the final round, and after the final round of the group stage, 16 teams will return home and another 16 teams will move on.

In the first Group A match, Brazil faced Cameroon, Kaka started in this game and gave a wonderful performance, he assisted Neymar to score twice in the first half, and at the beginning of the second half, he drove straight into the ball and scored a goal, and Fred put the icing on the cake before the end of the game.

After three rounds of the group stage, Brazil's center finally scored, but Fred and Ruo only scored one goal in three games, which made the once star-studded and powerful Brazilian striker embarrassed.

It's Kaka's performance that makes people shine, and now there are even media calling on Scolarido to give Kaka a chance to play.

In the other game, Croatia lost to Mexico 1:3 and had no choice but to leave the World Cup stage, and Brazil and Mexico qualified hand in hand.

In the Group B match the next day, Spain, which had already been eliminated early, finally made people vaguely feel that the team that was once admired by countless people was back in the last game.

Although this game has nothing to do with the overall situation, but the Spanish team fighting for honor still tried its best, Torres scored, Villa scored, Iniesta assisted, Xiaofa assisted, Spain's last game in the World Cup in Brazil, in a perfect way, ended this imperfect trip, 3:0 victory also sang the final elegy for the Spanish fleet! Bye! Spain's Golden Generation!

In the past six years, although Spain has been suppressed by Belgium in every major tournament, their beautiful style of play has still attracted the attention of countless people, and they are praised as the representative of beautiful football and sexy football, which is their golden moment.

But on the stage of the World Cup in Brazil, after losing to the Netherlands and Chile in the group stage and exiting early, it is time for Spain's unique golden generation to say goodbye.

In fact, this day will come sooner or later, and the World Cup in Brazil is the farewell day of this generation of players, and Spain's golden generation is over in Brazil.

Casillas, 33, Reina, 32, Xavi, 34, Xavi, 33. Alonso, 33-year-old Villa and 30-year-old Torres, will be difficult to see again in the upcoming Spain squad squad.

In this list, Casillas is the most regrettable, in this World Cup, Cassie's goal has been penetrated by opponents seven times, his performance has been questioned like never before, and while young goalkeepers such as De Gea are rising rapidly, Cassie may find it difficult to continue to occupy the position of the main goalkeeper of the national team.

Spain also said goodbye to Xavi and Alonso, Xavi will not only say goodbye to the Spanish national team, but also to Barcelona, after media reported that Xavi will join Qatari giants Al-Arabi, he will officially join after the World Cup.

In fact, as early as before the start of the World Cup, Real Madrid hoped that Alonso would withdraw from the national team after the World Cup.

In tonight's game, Villa and Fernando Torres both scored and Spanish fans saw the shadow of Spain's golden era again, but it was only their last elegy.

The 33-year-old is Spain's all-time leading scorer, and after helping Atletico Madrid win La Liga this season, Villa chose to leave Europe for the United States, which was also his last international game.

Torres has not made a clear decision to retire from the national team, but at the age of 30, it is difficult for him to compete for a place in the team, considering that he has beaten the likes of Negreiro and Llorente to be selected for the national team.

In the next major tournaments such as the European Championship and the World Cup, people may no longer see the shadow of the above-mentioned players, and the combination of Villa and Torres will no longer be seen.

For Spain's World Cup, beating Australia is actually a sad farewell, and this former dream team will slowly fade away from people's vision, but the era and tiki-taka style they represent will never be erased in the history of world football.

Spain retained the last shred of their dignity, while Australia became the first of the four Asian teams to say goodbye to Brazil on a three-game losing streak.

But compared to the boring football of Japan and South Korea, Australia's frantic attack may be the only bright spot of this Asian team, and one cannot forget the diminutive Cahill, who is not a loser, and his two goals did not bring victory to Australia, but earned respect for the Kangaroos.

In fact, after Viduka, Colwill and Schwarzer retired from the national team one after another, the former Kangaroos also said goodbye to their golden age, and only Cahill struggled to support it.

In the Asian region of the World Preliminary Championships, Australia has begun to be powerless, let alone on the World Cup stage, but compared to Japan and South Korea's lack of offensive strength in this World Cup, Australia's three consecutive defeats are more like standing to death.

Despite losing their opening game to Chile, Cahill put too much pressure on Chile with one header after another, and if they were lucky, they could even hope for a draw.

Cahill stepped up once again against the in-form Netherlands, and once again showed his good header with a cross from the wing, and Cahill proved that Australia will not take their guns lightly even against one of the best teams in the world.

Having lost three in a row, this is their worst World Cup trip and the first Asian team to go out early. But Australia's fighting spirit is admirable, and although they have conceded an average of three goals per game in three games, they have also scored three goals, the most of any Asian team.

They may be the worst of the top four teams in Asia, but they have fought to the bottom, and after the World Cup, the veterans represented by Cahill may retire, but some of the memories they left behind in this World Cup will be captured, and of course, more importantly, three consecutive defeats are not a shame, they will make a comeback.

In the other game of Group B, the Netherlands and Chile have already appeared in advance in this game to send all the substitutes, although the Chileans also want to fight for group transparency, but the Dutch's huge goal difference, in the end, they still gave up, rather than fighting with the Netherlands in this game, it is better to save the strength to face the host Brazil.

In the end, the Netherlands won the game 2-0 and qualified for both the Chilean team.

In the Group C game, Japan, which had its back to the water, tried its best in the match with Colombia, but it was not strong enough to threaten Colombia, and finally suffered a 1:4 defeat and became the second Asian team to leave the World Cup.

No one cares if the Japanese stay in the World Cup, and all eyes are on Colombia's young core Rodriguez, who scored a goal before the end of the game to continue his journey to godhood.

In addition, one of the highlights of the game was Colombia's veteran goalkeeper Montragon, who came on as a substitute in the second half and also set a new record for the oldest player to appear in the World Cup.

In another game, the contest between Greece and Côte d'Ivoire, in the end, the Greek myth was staged again, Samaris scored the first goal to help the Greek team take the lead, but Boni's goal in the 74th minute gave the Ivorians hope, seeing that the game was about to end, Samaras stepped up, and at the moment when the referee was about to blow the whistle at the end of the game, he used a wonderful goal to kick Greece into the round of 16 of the World Cup in Brazil, and also let the Ivory Coast team, which has participated in three consecutive World Cups, once again out of the group.

In Group D, Italy unexpectedly lost to Uruguay, but Italy was not reconciled to lose, and their experience once put the game in their own hands, but after Marchisio's red card, Suarez bit on the field, the referee ignored it and let the game continue, and then Godin's stunner happened. If Suarez is punished by the referee, will Italy still concede a goal?

There are no assumptions in the world, and Italy today lacks a key gentleman, and the loss really has nothing to do with the referee.

In the history of Italian football, there is no shortage of legends, let alone key gentlemen, such as Baggio, the closest Italian hero to the people, his name is Grosso!

In the summer of 2006, Italy, who were not favored and had another negative influence, unexpectedly won the final championship.

In that dramatic summer, the world remembered Digan, who went down in tears after being injured in the final, and Grosso, the great left-back, but since then, Italy has still had no shortage of legends, Pirlo, Buffon, but now that key man is gone.

In Prandelli's Italian national team, the European Championship runners-up was a flickering moment, and while the highly-anticipated mid-generation coach had okay results, it always felt like something was missing.

And after the match against Uruguay, the answer was known: Italy's soul is lost!

Lippi was lucky in 2006 when the great left-back Grosso stepped up in the quarter-final against Australia and Totti converted a penalty that Grosso had so desperately created to keep Italy's hopes alive.

In the final, Materazzi evaded the eyes of the referee and kicked Digan off the pitch, and finally Italy won the coveted title.

And there are many such examples, such as Robert. Baggio.

And these heroes are also part of Italian football, melancholy, melancholy, these gray beauties are the favorite of all Italian fans, although it does not have the glamour of "tikitaka", nor the charm of "all offense and defense", but even when the game is already full of suffocation, Italy always has heroes to stand up.

It's just that there is no such figure in the Italian team now, Pirlo is old, Buffon has done his best, and the two heroes of the 2006 World Cup-winning team have lost the magic of eight years ago.

When Prandelli bet on Balotelli, Immobile and Cassano, there was a bad omen and there was no one left in Italy.

I don't know if Prandelli will think of Gilardino who was abandoned by him, Totti and Tony who were rejected by him, and even Roma rookie Florenzi who was knocked out of the squad by him at the last moment, and Giuseppe who was shaken by him. Rosie.

No creativity, no breakthroughs, and no heroes, such Italy from the joy of beating England, to the shock of losing to Costa Rica, and finally to being killed by Uruguay, the Blues are not wronged, even if Suarez should be red carded off the field, but Italy lost to not the referee, not Costa Rica, not Uruguay, but themselves.

The moment of anticipating the appearance of the hero is bitter and complicated, but it is also worth pondering.

It's time to say goodbye again, and every time in the World Cup, when Italy is eliminated, the TV cameras are always focused on a group of superstars who have been painfully lost.

This time, when Italy was out, the camera was focused on Pirlo and Buffon, and everyone knew that the glorious generation of Italy's crowning champion in Germany eight years ago would say goodbye completely after the 2014 World Cup.

In 2006, Lippi led 23 Italian tigers to win the fourth World Cup trophy in history, and since then, Italian football has rarely had moments of glory, but has constantly felt the atmosphere of separation.

After the 2006 World Cup, Nesta, Totti, Peruzzi, Inzaghi, Piero, Baroni, Materazzi, Toni, Perrotta and others were the first to withdraw from the World Cup for various reasons.

After the 2010 World Cup, Iaquinta, Camoranesi, Gattuso, Toni, Oddo, Zambrotta, Cannavaro and others said goodbye for various reasons.

Today, only four of the 23 Tigers who won the 2006 World Cup are still in the Italian team: Buffon, Barzagli, De Rossi and Pirlo.

This defeat to Uruguay is likely to be the farewell match of the World Cup for these four men. Pirlo had already made it clear before the game that this would be his last World Cup, and Pirlo did play a long-lost form, and the 35-year-old veteran proved with a run of more than 10,000 meters that he was indeed playing with the belief of "the last fight".

The 33-year-old Barzagli and the 36-year-old Gianluigi Buffon, although they did not explicitly state their retirement from the national team after the World Cup in an interview, it is difficult to imagine that they can still appear in the 2018 World Cup considering their age, especially considering Buffon's continuous injuries.

Perhaps the silver lining for the next World Cup is De Rossi, who is still one month away from turning 31, and at the 2018 World Cup, De Rossi will be nearly 35 years old, and it is certain that even if De Rossi can make it to that point, he will only be a rotation player for the team at that time.

After the game, Buffon was annoyed by the Italian media's "aging theory" when attacking the Italian team, and Buffon said this to the camera: "Every time Italy is in a slump, I, Pirlo, Barzagli and other old guys are always brought out to say, but why can't people respect what they say? Every time Italy is in trouble, they always say they want to rely on us! ”

A few words exposed the biggest problem in Italy, Italy seems to have brought a lot of young people, such as Cerci and Candreva in the Mesozoic Era, Bashen and Insigne in the 90s, but when it comes to the critical moment, when Italy needs to be savior, people will still focus on those old boys.

When Balotelli was busy venting his temper on the field, when Immobile was looking forward to starting opportunities but could only be invisible, when Darmian and Paletta wasted rare offensive opportunities at their feet, people could only hope that Buffon would stop their opponents and Pirlo would destroy the city.

After Italy was eliminated from the World Cup, the spotlight and the camera were aimed at Pirlo, and everyone knows that this is Italy's core World Cup farewell game, what kind of mood will it be to say goodbye in such a grievance and resentful way? Will Pirlo cry in grief or stare in anger? People were disappointed, and all they saw in Pirlo was the Baggio look of 1994: calm and unsettled.

Pirlo proved to be excellent, and even if Italy lost, the Blueshirts still completely suppressed Uruguay in terms of possession and pass success rate.

But as Prandelli said after the game: "Italy's four years of preparation are no match for a red card and a bite. ”

In such a sad way, Italy was eliminated from the tournament and Pirlo said goodbye to the World Cup forever, what kind of regret is this?

But people didn't see Pirlo's gaffe after the game, he didn't hide his face with his hands like Balotelli, he didn't have tears like Chiellini, he just walked to the dressing room with a calm face, and people only saw a kind of calm on his face.

People are not unfamiliar with such a scene, are they?

In 1994, when Baggio single-handedly brought Italy to the final, but he missed the penalty that helped Brazil win the championship, Baggio was the only one who stood still.

You can't cry when it's really sad!

Looking back on Pirlo's World Cup journey: In his first World Cup in 2006, he led a group of role players such as Iaquinta, Perrotta, and Grosso to victory.

In 2010, he participated in the World Cup for the second time, but only played a few dozen minutes due to injury, witnessing the team's tragic exit.

This was Pirlo's last World Cup, and he was expecting to improve his career again, but he met such a referee, such an opponent.

He fought with all his strength, but he could only get out of the game with such hatred, which was too cruel for him. Even for the World Cup, for football, farewell to such a master, and even more sad are the fans all over the world. Thankfully, it is well known that Pirlo's footballing achievements need no more wins and trophies, and that may have been the only consolation of the night.

After the game, when Degan was asked by a reporter to evaluate Pirlo, Degan groaned for a while before saying: "I have been teammates with him for a season, I don't know much about his character, but I can say for sure that he is a real master!" ”

Pirlo left, along with his Italian national team, there is still someone destined to leave, and that is Suarez, who won the game but lost to virtue.

After only one game of deification, Suarez was immediately beaten back to his prototype, and he also bit the opponent, and the punishment he will face this time may not be as simple as a few games, even if he is a player who fought for Uruguay on the field, but even Uruguayan fans are ashamed of his behavior.

"Suarez is biting again!"

After the match against Italy, the major media began to repeat the footage of Suarez biting Chiellini during the game, and the TV station also found the previous video of him biting opponents at Ajax and Chelsea for ulterior motives.

A group of Uruguayan fans who had just watched the game couldn't help but say: "It's disgusting! Victories are tainted by him! ”

The last game was the hero of the team, and this one was under such criticism, what exactly do Uruguayan fans think of Suarez?

'We're thankful for his contribution to the team and, you know, Suarez comes from a poor family and in that environment he has to be strong to show his sense of responsibility, which we can all understand, but that doesn't mean he can attack the opposition in that way on the pitch, especially not the first time, I think we're just going to be cheering for his goal from the sidelines, and it's hard for us to think of him as a hero when the game is over.'

Subsequently, FIFA also officially released news that Suarez's bite will be thoroughly investigated, and once this matter is confirmed, he is likely to face a suspension of up to two years of FIFA matches.

In the other Group D game, the English were unable to defend their dignity as much as the Spaniards, drawing 0-0 with Costa Rica in their final group game.

After England lost the first two games, England legend Lineker also comforted himself: England is as bad as Spain!

But as soon as the words fell, England and Spain showed very different performances in the final round after being eliminated, Spain defeated Australia 3-0 with a group of substitutes, and England, who also trained as substitutes, could not help Costa Rica, and could only end the World Cup journey with a 0:0 draw.

Costa Rica's strength is stronger than Australia, but Australia lost to the Netherlands 2:3, not without resistance, and Costa Rica has already qualified in advance, and in terms of mental state and fighting spirit, it is no longer the Costa Rica that defeated Uruguay and Italy.

On paper, even if England is on the bench, the individual strength of the players is stronger than Costa Rica's main force, not to mention that England's idea of winning is much stronger than Costa Rica's, in this case England has not been able to win Costa Rica, at least it shows that England's substitutes are not stronger than Costa Rica, or even weaker, after all, Costa Rica's players are obviously not doing their best, and England is full of energy.

To add to the frustration of England fans, the draw bodes well for England's bleak future, with many of England's starters in the field being young players: Phil. Jones, Luke Shaw, Ross Barkley, Lallana, Wilshere and Sturridge are all seen as England's hopes for the next World Cup, but these young players are much more famous than their Costa Rican counterparts, but they don't show any advantage in terms of quality, and even if these people can improve in the next four years, how much better can they be in four years.

In fact, England manager Roy Hodgson was timid in the pre-match press conference, saying that the team's hope is in the future, but he refused to give the future a deadline: "I hope they can prove that I am right, we just hope that in the next two, four or six years, England will have some good performances." ”

Hodgson's words are so tactful, if you really wait six years, then God knows what kind of variables will happen.

The mental state and strength shown by Spain in the final round at least gave people a glimpse of the possibility of their short-term resurgence, but England's performance in the final round made people see no hope.

In fact, in the past 20 years, except for the semi-finals of the European Championship on home soil in 1996, England has never performed well in major tournaments, but relying on the good marketing of the Premier League and the developed English media, every time England competes in the tournament, people will have a strong illusion of their own.

And every time a major tournament fails, England will appeal to the fans to look to the future, but every time the future has disappointed the fans, and this time will probably be no exception.

After the group stage of Group D, Italy and England, who were previously favored, were both out, which was really beyond everyone's expectations, but this is football, anything can happen.

In the subsequent Group E match, there was no upset again, Switzerland beat Honduras 3-0, and Shaqiri scored his second hat-trick of this World Cup.

This time, Switzerland did not make another mistake, and in previous tournaments, the Swiss pair had always been in a good situation to qualify from the group, and in the final round, they suddenly had a head cramp, and the result was that the good situation was all at once.

Fortunately, this time, the Swiss team withstood the test, and throughout the game, the Swiss team maintained 100% concentration, and finally won against Honduras in the third autumn.

In another game, the French and Ecuador drew 0:0, in this game, Benzema and other main players did not appear, which affected the attack of the French team to a certain extent, although only a draw was achieved, but in the end, France and Switzerland joined hands to qualify, Honduras and Ecuador went home, fortunately, their home is not far from Brazil.

In the last round of Group F, Iran, the most promising Asian team, finally lost a 1:3 clean game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, which had been eliminated in advance, allowing Bosnia and Herzegovina to win their first victory in the World Cup and go home.

In another game, Argentina, which has already qualified in advance, sent all the main players in this game, the degree of star-studded, it is clear that it is intended to take Nigeria away with a wave of rhythm, and finally these two teams gave people a wonderful offensive battle, the result is that Argentina won 3:2, Messi scored two more goals, the number of goals in this World Cup has been brushed to four, after the game, the two teams also qualified together, advanced to the round of 16.

Group G game, Portugal ushered in a life-and-death battle, before the game their group qualifying situation was very unfavorable, in the first round of the group stage they were 0:4 by Germany's bloodbath, the second round against the United States, Portugal just luckily got a draw, so the game against Ghana for Portugal, is a life and death battle.

It is said that it is a battle of life and death, in fact, the initiative is not in the hands of Portugal itself, because the pit dug before is too deep, whether it is goal difference or points, Portugal is completely at a disadvantage, not to mention that Germany and the United States have no reason and obligation to work hard for Portugal. So, from the very beginning, not many people believed that Portugal would create a surprise in the final round.

Although Portugal defeated Ghana 2:1, but in the end because of the small goal difference, can only helplessly go out, the fiasco of this World Cup, but also Portugal since the 2002 South Korea and Japan World Cup, again in the group stage of the world series was eliminated, since 2002, Portugal won the runner-up in the 2004 European Championship on its own, won the World Cup in 2006, the round of 16 of the 2010 World Cup, and entered the top 4 of the European Cup in 2012, and now this Portugal can be called the worst in 10 years, The harsh reality will make the Portuguese start to seriously reflect on the talent model in their own country, because compared to other traditional powerhouses, Portugal now has a mixed composition, and there are no other exciting and impressive players other than Golden Mauro and a good Coentrão.

Taking the position of center forward as an example, the players who play the main role in this position in the Portuguese team today, whether it is Almeida or Eder, strictly speaking, are not even second-rate center forwards, modern football has developed so far, the requirements for the center forward can be described as all-round, the reason why Camuro can play in Real Madrid is inseparable from the support of Benzema, and in the national team, Camuro has no such helper. These two are not the same as the legendary goalscorer Eusebio and Pauleta in Portuguese history, and they are even inferior to Pinto and Gomez.

In terms of midfield, Portugal is not as good as Rui back then. With a classic master like Costa, Moutinho can only be said to be a decent and good player. At the back, Portugal did not have a strong player like Couto.

The current players are not good enough, the young players can't keep up, and Portugal rarely have the kind of young talent with the superstar appearance in the Portuguese squad. For a long time, because the fame of Camuro is too great, it may give the Portuguese themselves and many fans an illusion that Portugal is very strong, but the cruel reality has ruthlessly exposed the truth, and this World Cup, Portugal has exposed too many problems.

In the other game, although the United States lost 0:1 to Germany, but also appeared smoothly, their 1/8 final opponent will be the top of Group H Belgium, although the United States team performed well in this World Cup, but when they think of the Belgium they are about to face, Uncle Sam is expected to say that it will be difficult to sleep at night.
