After two rounds of the group stage, six of the 32 teams advanced to the round of 16 one round early: Brazil in Group A, Netherlands in Group B, Italy in Group D, France and Iran in Group F, and Argentina in Group G. In addition to Iran, the remaining 5 teams are currently in the top 10 of the world's top 10 super teams, Brazil, Italy and Argentina together have won a total of 15 World Cups 9 times.4 stars Brazil, 3 stars Italy, 2 stars Argentina, not surprisingly, the champions of this World Cup will also be produced in these teams.
Aside from other groups, the Chinese team, as a team that has entered the World Cup finals for the first time, has played quite well, and it can be said that it has exceeded the goals set before. However, as a fellow Asian team, seeing that their defeated Iranian team can successfully advance to the next round, every member of the national football team is determined to fight 200% of their own to defeat Nigeria in the final round and thus get a place in the round of 16.
At present, the situation of the national football team is slightly inferior to Nigeria, and the fundamental reason is that there is one less goal difference in the case of the same number of points. If the first round against Argentina Li Byrne's flower foot shot scored, or Zheng Dongqi's bottom cross could be of higher quality... Alas, how can there be so many what ifs in the world? The pit you dug yourself, and you have to grit your teeth and step through it. Only when this hurdle is truly crossed can the national football team truly complete its transformation.
The last round is not mentioned for the time being, let's first review the game of the Chinese team against the Jamaican team.
Thanks to the first meeting with Argentina, the national football team quickly adapted to the opponent's full-court pressing tactics in the second round of the game against Jamaica. Jamaica's full-court pressing is fundamentally different from Argentina's small-range pressing style. The Argentines put pressure on the national football team through the movement of the overall formation, they will not blindly make a steal, but the feeling to the players is that the line of your ball is blocked, no matter what position the ball is transferred to, the opposing players can basically defend and settle down in the first place. Jamaica's full-court pressing is fundamentally due to their own lack of strength and lack of control in the midfield, so they need to use the endurance and impact of black players to disrupt the rhythm and control of the national football team.
When the players of the Chinese team found out that their opponents were a group of rough brothers, their self-confidence came out, and what was emphasized in the first round of post-match training was naturally kicked out.
The first goal of the national football team came very easily, in the 29th minute of the first half, the Jamaican team's front court was broken by the national football team with 13 consecutive passes, and the impatient mentality made the opponent completely unaware that his back line had been pressed near the center circle. China's 15th pass was played by Zhang Enhua to Wu Chengying, who suddenly fired a volley-like low ball through the triangle gap between Jamaica's midfield, full-backs and midfielders, and accurately reached the feet of striker Li Jinyu. Jamaica's 3-4-3 formation immediately leaked their already weak backline. Li Jinyu leaned his back against the opponent's central defender, made a gesture to pass back to Peng Weiguo behind him, and then turned around with a pull ball on the spot to give up half of the space, and then a straight pass to the feet of Qi Hong, who was inserted at high speed on the left side.
Qi Hong burst into the edge of the penalty area and made a horizontal pass, Li Jinyu at the front point raised his foot and shot was hit by the opponent's goalkeeper with both fists, the ball rolled towards the middle of the penalty area, and Li Boen, who was inserted behind, volleyed, the ball shot directly through the net and flew into the stands behind the goal, and the Chinese team took the lead in scoring a goal.
After taking the lead, the game completely entered the rhythm of the Chinese team, the impatient mentality of the Jamaican players and the calm passing of the Chinese players formed a sharp contrast, in the face of the Chinese team's non-stop running without the ball and inverted feet, the Jamaican team fouled one after another in the second half of the first half, and the referee showed two yellow cards to stop the madness of the opponent.
In the 43rd minute of the first half, Sun Jihai broke the ball on the right side, and after Li Boen hit the wall and cooperated with the opponent's fullback, Jihai handed the ball to Peng Weiguo in front of the middle with a straight pass, Peng Da did not stop the ball and directly passed back to Li Bourne, who used his speed to penetrate the gap between the two central defenders in Jamaica, and passed the ball to the feet of Li Jinyu, who was closely marked by the opponent's central defender, at a distance of three or four meters from the opponent, Da Yu rubbed smartly, and the ball penetrated the defense line of the opponent's central defender, and Li Bourne broke through in an instant. Then the pendulum of two or three meters inward in the big penalty area threw off the goalkeeper, the ball was unfortunately a little bigger, the teenager glanced at the middle of the road, crossed the back point, Li Jinyu and Peng Weiguo double-ghost shot the goal, and finally the ball was shot into the goal by Li Jinyu who was a little ahead. The Chinese team took a 2:0 advantage at half-time.
After the break, the Chinese team's unrelenting posture looked like it was going to get the goal difference from Jamaica, but the other side really had nothing to do. In the 23rd minute of the second half, the Chinese team took a free kick in front, and Peng Weiguo scored a full moon scimitar to completely lock the victory. After that, the Chinese team also replaced several main players one after another, so that more players could get training in the World Cup, but unfortunately in the 37th minute of the second half, Jamaican winger Kargil scored a goal to reduce the national football team's goal difference. Otherwise, only a draw against Nigeria is needed in the final round to secure the second place in the group.
In any case, the final round of the group is destined to be a life-and-death battle for the national football team in this competition, but fortunately, the players have found their best form through two games. It is still unknown who will kill the deer, for this line of life, come on the national football team!
