Ahead of the third round of Group D, qualification is also in jeopardy, with the exception of Australia, which has little chance of qualifying, and the other three teams have a more positive prospect of qualifying.

After two fierce battles, Germany and Ghana qualified hand in hand, and the duel between the Boateng brothers ended with the victory of the younger brother.

Since the World Cup was held, all kinds of strange things have happened one by one, Stankovic can play the World Cup for three national teams, it was unthinkable before, but it has also become a fact due to the drastic changes in the country's geopolitics, Germany's battle against Ghana, another interesting event has appeared, and the World Cup has appeared for the second time in the wonder of the two brothers, the younger brother Jérôme. Boateng plays for Germany, while his brother Kevin. Prince. Boateng plays for Ghana.

Different from the Wright brothers, the Boateng brothers are very different in terms of faces, in fact, in addition to Ghana's father, each has a German mother, of course, the brother is still a brother, but can only be called half-brother.

Jérôme's experience with Germany has been relatively flat, having played for Germany at all ages since the Under-16 national team and was part of the Under-21 European Championship '09 winning squad. Last year, he made his debut for his national team against Russia, where he was sent off for two yellows, but that didn't make him disappear from the German squad, and he won Loew's favor thanks to his consistent performances at Hamburg.

The story of Boateng is relatively tangled, until the U19 national team, he followed the same path as his younger brother Jérôme, but at the U21 level, and the then U21 coach Dieter. Eltz had a serious conflict that affected his journey to the top of the national team.

In fact, looking back, this matter may not be so serious, in the final analysis, the absolute key factor is the performance at the club. Kevin. Boateng switched to the Premier League from 07, but his two seasons at Tottenham can only be described as a failure, and he did not perform much in the half season of loan back to Dortmund, which directly cut off his opportunity to show his face in the World Cup in the German team, so he announced that he would play for the Ghana team.

From the above introduction, it can be seen that the elder brother's positioning is lower than that of the younger brother, but because of the different strengths of the two national teams, coupled with Essien's injury, Da Boateng is the absolute main force in the Ghana team, starting all three games, and with the needs of the game, he has gradually improved from a defensive back to an attacking front midfielder.

Boateng Jr. is the German team's substitute central defender, can also play the full-back position, through this game, just completed the World Cup debut, but Loew's use of him in this game is somewhat unexpected, directly played the left-back start, it is not ruled out that Loew has the intention of letting the brothers meet to make history.

I don't know if it's a tactical arrangement or a deliberate avoidance, in this game, Boateng mainly attacked the right side of the German team, while Boateng Jr. defended on the left side of the field, and the two had the opportunity to meet, but there was almost no one-on-one confrontation with each other.

and the 2006 World Cup, the fierce duel between Kaka and Degan, this game seems to be a lot more dull, but after the Wright brothers, the Boateng brothers' duel on the World Cup stage is also destined to forever go down in the history of the World Cup.

The brotherly duel, just a gimmick of the game, although eye-catching, was not destined to be the theme of the game, in this game, the Germans finally had the last laugh, and it was Ozil who led them to victory.

If Mesut Ozil in the first game of the group stage against Australia was just the new engine of the German team, then Ozil today is more like the savior of the German team.

In South Africa, Ballack's injury gave Mesut Ozil the best chance to change the tactics around Ballack's attack, and the biggest beneficiary of that change was Mesut Ozil.

In the last game against Serbia, Ozil did not play well, and the German attack also lost its brains and regulations.

In this life-and-death battle with Ghana, although Ozil missed several chances in the first half, when the game reached the 60th minute, Ozil used a world wave to save himself and the German team. Muller combined with Lahm on the right and cut inside with a low cross, Mesut Ozil stopped the ball at the top of the box, and then fired a left-footed half-volley into the net with the ball against the left post.

Ozil's performance in this World Cup is enough to surprise the German football world, think about the original German team, whether it is Litbarski or later Hasler and Sauer, they are typical technical flows, they are delicate and flexible in possession and dribbling, but since Sauer, the Germans no longer have a real sense of technical flow organization core.

Even Ballack, who has gradually become the backbone of the team since the 2002 World Cup, is not this type of player, for which the German team has been waiting for more than 10 years.

Now, the 22-year-old Ozil has made German fans completely forget about Ballack, who missed the World Cup due to injury, and the trust in Loew, Ozil's return performance, can almost be described as perfect, and more importantly, his goal, but also helped Germany successfully break through the group.

Of course, the young Ozil also has his own shortcomings, such as lack of fitness, in the final stage of the second half Ozil has shown a state of physical overdraft, and Ozil needs to increase the ability to take chances, whether it is a big win over Australia, or a game against Ghana, Ozil has had a one-on-one opportunity to face the goalkeeper directly, but Ozil has not taken it. If it is a more crucial game, if such a chance arises, it can be "punished" in the subsequent game.

As Mesut Ozil's performances at the World Cup have gone from strength to strength, the German player of Turkish descent has caught the attention of the Premier League's biggest powers.

According to British media, the Premier League's top three Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal are all interested in bringing in Mesut Ozil, whose value has risen from 4.5 million euros two years ago to 20 million euros.

I believe that after this night, Loew and the German team can be more determined that Ozil is the absolute heart of this German team, and when the team needs to attack, give the ball to Ozil.

Meanwhile, in the other game, Australia left South Africa as winners, despite failing to qualify from the group, and the Kangaroos played with blood and dignity.

With a 4-0 defeat to Germany in the first round of the group stage and a hard-fought draw with Ghana, Australia's hopes of qualifying are slim and they will have to beat Serbia in the final round of the group stage to make it through.

This goal is obviously very difficult for the Australians, on the other hand, Serbia only needs to beat Australia to guarantee qualification, but the two teams on the field, Australia is more like a fighter who will fight to the end.

In the first half of the game, Serbia suppressed Australia, but in the face of few chances, there was no way to take the Australians.

In the second half, Australia began to use their movement and pace to create chances, and that's when hero Gary Cahill stepped up again and headed home from Nemanja Vidic on 69 minutes. Four minutes later, substitute Holman knocked on Serbia's door again with a long-range shot from more than 30 yards out.

At this point, the Australians seemed to see hope of qualifying, because if Australia scored one more goal and Germany beat Ghana another goal on the other field, then Australia would advance.

Australia began to intensify its frantic attack on Serbia, and in the face of fate, the Australians chose to fight, and exchanged the unyielding war for dignity and victory.

However, Serbia's Tosic fired a long-range shot that caused Schuvadze to get off his hands and score in the rebound, and then the situation of the group changed suddenly, because if Serbia scored another goal and equalized, then Serbia would advance.

At this time, Australia once again lost their hopes of qualifying, but they were unwilling to lose another victory, and in the face of Serbia's wave of attacks, the Australian team persevered, locking the victory in their arms.

After the game, the Australian players hugged together to celebrate the victory, and although they still didn't make it to the group, a victory was enough to keep their heads up in the eyes of the Australians.

In Australia's three group stage games, Cahill and Colwill received red cards in the first two games, which was somewhat unfair, and finally in a game without injustice, the Australian players won back their dignity.

Perhaps, without that big defeat against Germany, or those two red cards, Australia might have gone far.

When the game was over, people noticed a detail, because the last game was sent off with a red card, this game can only sit in the stands Colwill cried, he cried very sadly, for him, his World Cup at the moment of the final whistle, also ended, a red card, this is all the memory that Colwill left in South Africa in 2010.

After three rounds of Group D, the German team advanced as the group leader, and they will face the second England in Group C in the subsequent 1/8 knockout round.

Ghana are second in the group, and they will face the United States, the top team in Group C, and the strength of the two teams is basically inseparable, and it is reasonable to have the last laugh in this matchup.
