Chapter 93 Top 32 Tour 3
Because the FIFA stipulates that the 2010 World Cup will be hosted by African countries, the five countries that strive for the right to host the 2010 World Cup are all African countries, namely Egypt, Libya, Morocco, South Africa and Tunisia.
On May 8, 2004, Tunisia announced that it was impossible to co-host the World Cup with Libya and announced that it would give up the right to host it. Because Libya only hoped to jointly host the World Cup with Tunisia, it would not host it alone. At the same time, Libya also said that it would not allow Israel to participate in the World Cup, so it was cancelled. Qualifications.
On May 15, 2004, at the meeting of the International Football Association Executive Committee held in Zurich, Switzerland, South Africa overtook Morocco by 14 votes to 10, winning the right to host the 2010 World Cup and becoming the 16th World Cup host country.
In fact, South Africa was very promising to win the first World Cup for Africa in 2006, but at that time, in the last round of voting, South Africa unfortunately lost to Germany by one vote, which forced South Africans to wait for another four years.
At the opening ceremony of the World Cup, Mandela, the leader of South Africa's anti-racism leader, appeared in the form of VCR, touching the whole world. The picture of the old man holding the World Cup in his hand is also destined to become an eternal classic.
The World Cup came to Africa, and the enthusiastic African continent suddenly rejoiced. In addition to the expectations for the upcoming World Cup, African fans are also particularly looking forward to the teams from Africa to achieve excellent results in the game.
Group D: This group is also full of strong players, including Germany, the former World Cup champion, Australia, which joined the AFC, Serbia, which inherited the football manor of Yugoslavia, and Ghana, the recognized strongest team in Africa.
The German chariot is a regular guest in the World Cup finals, and Germany and its predecessor, the Federal Germany, have a remarkable record of seven finals and three championships. In the last World Cup, Germany, as the host, won the third place.
Subsequently, Klinsmann left the team and became Germany's new head coach during the 2006 World Cup. In the 2008 European Cup, Germany reached the semi-finals, but lost to Belgium, which played better, and missed the final.
In this World Cup qualifiers, Germany's biggest competitor in the group is undoubtedly Russia. In the end, Germany beat Russia at home and away. After 10 rounds of qualifiers, Germany, which remained undefeated, advanced with its head held high.
German players are famous for their rigorous and tenacious will and excellent psychological quality. Although the players' performance on the court is slightly rigid and their creativity is insufficient, Germany has frequently achieved good results in the competition.
With the emphasis on the training of young players, potential rookies have emerged in Germany in recent years. Now Germany has been picked up by young players. Even Degan, who once ridiculed old German football, said after the semi-finals of the European Cup that German football is more worth looking forward to in the future. The current German chariot It is in sharp contrast to Germany, which could only rely on veterans and young players at the end of the last century.
Because Barak was absent due to injury, Germany's substitute goalkeeper Büt and striker Klose became the only members of the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup runner-up team. Although Klose is now old and his position in Bayern Munich has also been shaken, but he is still the absolute front line in the national team. Main force.
Klose was born in the 2002 World Cup, and Klose scored five goals each in the 2002 and 2006 World Cup.
Klose lost his position as the main striker in Bayern Munich this season, and the scoring efficiency has also declined considerably. However, even in the poor state of Bayern Munich, Klose is still the main striker in Löv's mind. In the national team, Klose still performed well and succeeded in Germany. In the process of qualifying, Klose repeatedly contributed key goals.
As he grew older, Klose consciously continued to enrich his scoring methods. From the beginning, a pure shooter with outstanding header ability but a single offensive method gradually grew into a good offensive player with excellent shooting and delicate skills under his feet. In this World Cup, Klose will still be the first choice for the team to attack the city.
The veterans are trustworthy, and there are many talented young people. Ozil, who has Turkish ancestry, is the best among the young German generation.
This season, Ozil's performance in Weda Bremen can be said to be brilliant. Ozil, who has delicate foot technology, is good at rimming and has obvious speed advantages. He also performed well on the sidelines. This season, whether in Weida Bremen or in the national team, Ozil's strong assist ability is impressive. .
Although he is only 21 years old, Ozil has maturity and calmness that does not match his age on the field, which makes Ozil's future in the national team worthy of being optimistic.
In addition to Ozil, striker Mueller is also worth looking forward to. Mueller's surname seems to be synonymous with super striker in Germany. Although Mueller, who plays for Bayern Munich, can only be trained as a potential newcomer in the club, he has begun to gradually replace Klose's absolute main position in the national team. The World Cup in South Africa will become a stage for Mueller to show himself to the world.
Captain Barak was absent from this World Cup due to injury, which was a great blow to the German team. Since the 2002 World Cup between South Korea and Japan, Barak has been the leader of German football. In the qualifiers of this World Cup, Barak has scored several wonderful goals.
Considering the age, this World Cup will definitely be Barak's last international competition for the national team. Unfortunately, the injury made the German iron man lose this opportunity.
The lack of Barak, a leader with a stable military heart, has also cast a shadow on Germany's World Cup journey. How to solve the psychological problems of players will also become a difficult problem that coach Loef urgently needs to solve.
The German team is strong, and it should not be a problem to qualify, while Australia, an Oceanian team from the AFC, should not be underestimated. Australian kangaroos have only participated in the World Cup once before. Among them, in the 2006 World Cup, Australia successfully won the right to qualify in the group and was eliminated in the top 16. In the game, Australia lost to Italy, which won the championship, because of only one controversial penalty. In the four games it participated in, Australia contributed wonderful football.
Because Oceania had only half of the World Cup quota before, Australia repeatedly lost its right to qualify in the World Cup play-offs. Finally, Australia chose to join the AFC. In this World Cup Asian qualifier, Australia, which is stronger than its opponent, easily got the World Cup ticket, among which the team is stable. The defense makes it difficult for other teams in Asia to find a way to score.
There are many Australian players playing in major European leagues. The players are generally tall and strong, and their physical and air advantages are quite obvious. In addition, there are also many skilled players in the Australian team to revitalize the team's attack.
After joining Everton, Cahill, the number one star in the team, quickly became an indispensable member of Everton. Cahill, with excellent explosive power, has a strong scoring ability. Although he is not a pure striker, Cahill has scored a considerable number of goals every season.
It is especially worth mentioning that although he is not tall, Cahill has an extremely terrible header ability. Cahill has an amazing bouncing and waist and abdominal strength, and has a keen judgment on the landing point, which makes him repeatedly succeed in the encirclement of the opponent's tall defenders, and rush to the corner flag area to perform after scoring. The combination boxing is Cahill's iconic goal celebration.
There is another person's name that can't be mentioned in Australian football, that is, Corville, a young player who became famous. From the late 1990s to the beginning of this century, Coville, who played for the powerful Leeds United, experienced the peak of his career. He was able to pass energy and score goals. At that time, The excellent performance in the Premier League has attracted the attention of many rich clubs.
After Leeds United declined due to a serious financial deficit, Cowell transferred to Liverpool, but frequent injuries made Cowell's experience in Liverpool unsuccessful. Although he played five seasons in Liverpool, Cowell's appearances were quite limited.
In the summer of 2008, Koville joined the Turkish team Galatasaray. After his first year, Koville still remains in excellent condition, but the injury is not far away from Koville. Because of the injury, Koville has failed to build more achievements in the national team. Now it is difficult for Kobel to reproduce the sharp sidelines. Breakthrough, but experienced Cowell is still an important member of Australia's World Cup.
Australia's performance in the last World Cup shocked world football. For the second time, Australians still wanted to continue their last glory.
Going further will be their primary goal.
The last World Cup was also played in the name of Serbia and Montenegro, but now it has become Serbia. Strictly speaking, this World Cup is the first time that Serbia has participated in the final stage of the World Cup after independence.
Although Serbia and Montenegro were independent in June 2006, they still participated in the 2006 World Cup in the name of Serbia and Montenegro. Serbia and Montenegro, which was unstable and had no intention to fight, were finally out early in the group stage, but this is not a reflection of the team's real level.
The former Yugoslavia is a fertile land for football. Historically, superstars familiar to fans have emerged, but the political instability and the impact of war have seriously hindered the greater achievements of former Yugoslavia football.
As an emerging country after independence, with its desire for honor and the strength of the team, Serbia's performance in the European qualifier of this World Cup is quite eye-catching. After a 5-0 victory over Romania at home, Serbia got the World Cup ticket one round in advance, making France in the same group have to participate. Play-off.
Nowadays, Serbian players are active in major European leagues. The current team can easily remind people of Croatia, which was amazing in the 1998 World Cup, also the former Yugoslav republic. The players are equally talented and equally He participated in the World Cup for the first time since independence.
In the midfield and backcourt, there are many football stars in Serbia, which is also the most powerful part of Serbia. Ivanovic, Vidic, Subotic and other players are popular in European football. The Serbian defense they guard is quite stable, and there are many midfields like Jovanovic and Kra Sic and well-known stars such as experienced Stankovic.
Head coach Antich led the team out of the trough step by step and made Serbia unprecedentedly united. Antichi, who once coached Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, has reborn Serbia this time.
One of the highlights of Serbia's play is that the two wings fly together, with Jovanovic on the left wing and Krasic on the right wing. 25-year-old Krasic is currently in the golden age of his career. Krasic, who joined the Moscow Central Army in 2004 has caused more and more excellent performance in recent seasons. The attention of the giant club is that Krasic scored four goals in this season's Champions League group stage.
In the national team, the right side of Krasic and Ivanovic is the main starting point of the team's attack. Krasic, who has obvious speed advantages and delicate technology, is quite sharp in the side, and also has the unique skill of a long shot. When the team can't start the situation, Krasic can often take advantage of its super strength. Personal ability to break the deadlock on the field.
Vidić on the defensive line is the leader of Serbia. Vidić, who currently plays for Manchester United, is recognized as one of the best central defenders in Europe. Vidić, who has performed well in the club, will continue to play the role of the team's decisive role on the stage of the World Cup.
Stankovic is another big star in Serbia. Although he is old, Stankovic's performance on the field has not declined at all. His frontal assault and long-range shooting in the middle are his specialty.
During his time with Inter Milan, Stankovic always sat firmly in the main position in the face of many competitors. Whether it is Mancini or Mourinho, Stankovic has always been the absolute main force in the Inter Milan team.
This World Cup will also be Stankovic's third time to participate in the World Cup, and it is also the last time to show his skills on the stage of the World Cup. In the last World Cup in Germany, Stankovic, who represented Serbia and Black, returned home early after three group matches, which is not a huge for him. The regret. This time, the last international competition will be the best opportunity for Stankovic to make up for his regret.
Ghana, another team in this group, is recognized as the African team most likely to work miracles in this World Cup, but this World Cup is only the second time that Ghana has been shortlisted for the World Cup finals. In the 2006 World Cup, Ghana became the only group to qualify. African team, Ghana became the first team in the African qualifiers in this World Cup qualifiers.
In the 2010 Africa Cup, although the absolute main players of the midfield, Essien and Montari, Ghana still entered the finals, showing considerable competitiveness, but in the end Ghana lost to Egypt and became the runner-up. People can imagine that if the two stars return to the team In the competition, Ghana will be the best choice for the championship.
It is worth mentioning that Ghana has been quite successful in training young players, which also enables Ghana to have a quite eye-catching performance in the World Youth Championship. Potential young players continue to emerge, and the Ghana national team has also benefited a lot from it. At present, the average age of Ghana's main team is quite young. The main players in Ghana play in major leagues in Europe, among which the midfield led by Montari and Essien is the most powerful part of the team.
Montari became famous in the 2001 World Youth Championship, in which Ghana reached the final, but eventually lost to the host Argentina. Subsequently, Montari joined Udinese and did not transfer to Portsmouth until the summer of 2007, but after only one season in Portsmouth, Montari became heavy He returned to Serie A and joined Inter Milan.
Montari, with excellent stature, has good offense and defense in the midfield, but Montari has limited opportunities to play in Inter Milan this season, and is more like a substitute. In the national team, Montari has friction with the Ghanaian Football Association due to repeated disciplinary violations, but Montari is still an important member of the Ghanaian team.
The most familiar star among fans in Ghana is undoubtedly Essien. Like Montari, Essien became famous in the 2001 World Youth Championship. After playing for two seasons in Lyon, Essien joined Chelsea at a high price in the summer of 2005 and was able to usher in a new peak in his personal career.
Essin, who has amazing physical fitness, has excellent explosive power and running ability. Essien's physical condition with a large running range is quite outstanding. Essine also has a long-range shooting skill, while Essien's ball is as unstoppable as a bulldozer.
As a barrier to the midfield, Essin is an indispensable key player in both Chelsea and Ghana, and the all-round Essin is currently the top midfield star in football.
In the 2006 World Cup, Essien, the core of the team, led Ghana into the top 16, and the 27-year-old Essien is still the undisputed leader in Ghana.
In Group D, Germany is undoubtedly the strongest team, and it is reasonable to get the right to qualify. The remaining right to qualify will be compete with the other three teams. Now it seems that Ghana, which occupies the right time and place, obviously has a better chance to go further.
If Ghana in Group D is the African team most likely to create miracles in this World Cup, then Japan in Group E is the Asian team that is most likely to achieve the best results.
Group E: This group includes the uncrowned king of the Netherlands, the fairy tale kingdom Denmark, the African cheetah Cameroon and Japan, the origin of A film.
If you want to find a family member for each group, there is no doubt that the head of Group E is the Netherlands. At present, in world football, the Netherlands and Spain are the two most powerful traditional teams among the teams that have failed to win the World Cup, and the Netherlands is called the uncrowned king by fans.
In the World Cup, ** Dutch football often died prematurely, making the Netherlands shrouded in sadness. The Netherlands entered the World Cup final twice, but both ended in defeat. In the 2006 World Cup, the Netherlands, which was in the same group as Argentina, Serbia andIvoire, successfully broke out of the group stage, but in the top 16 knockout stage, the Netherlands finally lost to Portugal.
In the 2008 European Cup, the Netherlands swept Italy, France and Romania in the group stage, but in the top 8 knockout, the momentum of the Netherlands stopped abruptly. Due to its defeat to Russia, the Netherlands failed to advance to the top four.
In this World Cup qualifiers, the only teams worth mentioning in the same group in the Netherlands were Norway and Scotland. After all 8 rounds of qualifying matches, the Netherlands, which conceded only two goals, easily qualified with a complete victory.
Although it is strong, Dutch football has given people the feeling from the beginning that it is like Belgium at the beginning, and it can never be pinched into a whole.
Because most of the players in the Dutch team have played for the three Dutch giants, Ajax, Feyenoord and Eindhoven, the internal feud between the factions is quite serious, and there is also a considerable estrangement between the Surinamese descendants, who occupy a large proportion of the Dutch team, and the Dutch local players.
There are more frequent conflicts between the head coach and the players, and many internal consumption have greatly reduced the Netherlands's combat effectiveness in many previous competitions, and these problems need to be solved by head coach Van Malvik.
Under the leadership of Van Malvik, the Netherlands has become more focused on offensive and defensive balance and play more stable. The Netherlands has always been a lack of creative offensive players, but on the defensive end, the current Netherlands still has many hidden dangers. The weak Dutch field has now become a paradise for strikers, playing against When it comes to a strong team, the Dutch defense is always frightening. Although the Dutch Bundesliga has been quite successful in training young players, in recent years, excellent defenders in the Dutch League have not emerged like offensive players.
However, it is also due to the continuous emergence of talented offensive players that the Netherlands' performance on the offensive side is still quite interesting. Several of them are the focus stars of major European league clubs and are the pillars of the Netherlands on the offensive line.
Since joining Arsenal in the summer of 2004, Van Persie's growth is obvious to all. Van Persie's ability to pass the ball with delicately is quite outstanding. He is qualified for multiple positions in the midfield and front court, and has a quite excellent ability to set the ball. Van Persie, who has changed to a center position at Arsenal this season, is still quite outstanding. When there is no suitable person in the position of Dutch center, Van Persie can change from winger to center.
Van Persie has performed well in the 2006 World Cup and the 2008 European Cup. At present, Van Persie has become more mature and his hot temper has also restrained.
Roben became famous in the 2004 European Cup, and then joined Bayern Munich this season after playing Chelsea and Real Madrid.
Due to their outstanding technology and speed, Robben has caused headaches for many defenders in the Premier League and La Liga. After joining Bayern Munich this season, Robben has ushered in a new peak in his career. Whether in the Bundesliga or the Champions League, Robben has saved Bayern Munich with magical performance again and again.
Injuries have always been Robben's biggest enemy. Frequent injuries have made Robben unable to continuously contribute wonderful performances. Robben's injury situation has improved this season, which also makes people realize that Robben in a healthy state is so unstoppable.
Robben's inward cut and fake action are extremely confusing, and the breakthrough on the side is quite sharp. While passing the deadly threat ball, Robben's scoring ability with outstanding personal skills is also quite prominent.
Sneid, who was born in Ajax youth training, also became famous at a young age. After playing for two seasons in Real Madrid, Sneid had no choice but to leave Inter Milan last summer, but Sneid's performance in Inter Milan this season is quite outstanding. With his steady performance, Sneid firmly occupies the core of Inter Milan midfield In addition to his outstanding offensive organization ability, Sneed has a deep foundation in free kicks and long-range shots.
In the national team, in the 2004 European Cup qualifier against Scotland, Sneder, who was still a newcomer to the national team, was amazing. In the 2008 European Cup, Sneider, who played well, became the core of the midfielder in the Netherlands. Although he is short, Snes has considerable achievements in passing, shooting, ball control, running and many other aspects.
The prospects of the Dutch team with many talented attacking players in this World Cup are also widely favored. Although there are still many hidden dangers in defense, there are still infinite possibilities to attack powerful Dutchmen.
As the top football player in Asia, this is Japan's fourth consecutive World Cup final competition. They also look forward to creating the best record of Asian teams on the stage of the World Cup. Of course, this is without considering South Korea's shameless fourth place in 2002.
This time, the Japanese team qualified for the Asian qualifiers of the World Cup, and became the first team to enter the World Cup finals except for the host South Africa.
(In this regard, Chinese football should draw 13,000 big mouths!)
Japanese head coach Takeshi Okada previously led Japan to the World Cup for the first time in the 1998 World Cup, but Japan's first World Cup experience ended in three games. After the experience of the first three World Cups, Japan aimed at the group qualifying.
Similar to the lineup of the first three World Cups, Japan's front line is still its short board. Most of the strikers in the Japanese team have delicate foot skills and are good at breaking through with the ball, but due to the limitations of their size, the impact is generally insufficient.
The midfield is still the most prominent part of Japan's strength. Japan, which has many positioning masters in the team, relies heavily on positioning balls to score goals.
Since Japan has been unswervingly learning the Brazilian football style for 20 years, Japan's passing cooperation and players' foot skills have been quite formed. In addition, on the basis of learning samba football, Japan has also added its own inherent strengths of being agile and active running.
Nakamura Shunsuke is the indispensable midfielder's absolute main force in this Japanese team. After leaving Regina in Serie A, Nakamura Shunsuke has achieved great success in the Celtics of the Scottish Premier League. As the core of the midfield, Nakamura not only helped the Celtics win the Scottish Premier League in a row, but also in the Champions League, Nakamura Junfu also had an eye-catching performance, among which he used the free kick to break Manchester United's goal at home and away, leaving a deep impression on the fans.
But after switching to Espanyol in the summer of 2009, Shunsuke Nakamura had a mediocre performance and finally returned to the Yokohama Mariners of the J League, the starting point of his career in the middle of this season.
Shunsuke Nakamura has an excellent field vision on the court, and his ability to position the ball is even more unique. In addition to accurately passing the ball to his teammates in the penalty area, Nakamura can frequently use the opportunity of free kicks to score directly. Whether in the national team or in the club, Nakamura Fujun left a number of wonderful scenes of free kicks.
Another noteworthy player in the midfield of the Japanese team is Honda Keisuke, who will play for AC Milan in the future. He became famous in Fenlo in the Dutch League. In the middle of this season, Honda Keisuke joined the Russian super team CSKA Moscow. In the second round of the Champions League 16 knockout match against Seville, Honda Keisuke attacked He scored the winning goal and helped Moscow Central Army successfully advance to the top 8 of the UEFA Champions League.
Honda Keisuke also has the unique skill of a free kick, and his scoring ability is also quite outstanding. His long-range shooting ability is not bad. Because he is only 24 years old, Honda Keisuke will be a key player in the Japanese national team in the coming years.
Although the front line strength of the Japanese team is weak, Shinji Okazaki is worth looking forward to. In 2009, Shinji Okazaki, as the main scorer in the Japanese team, maintained a relatively high scoring rate in the national team. In the Japanese J1 League this season, Shinji Okazaki continued his excellent state in the national team.
24-year-old Shinji Okazaki will be an important attack arrow for Japan in the World Cup in South Africa. Although the impact in the penalty area due to the limitation of his figure, the flexible Shinji Okazaki has excellent ability to carry the ball, and it is a good shot unexpectedly.
Group E also includes Denmark, which created the first myth in the history of world football. Denmark has only participated in three World Cups, but Denmark has performed well in these three World Cups. In this World Cup European qualifiers, Denmark is in the same group with Portugal, Sweden, Hungary and other strong teams. Denmark The direct appearance of the top of the group is convincing and convincing enough.
Oulson has taken over the Danish national team since the 2000 European Cup and has been the head coach of the Danish national team for ten years. At the 2002 World Cup, Olsen led Denmark to break out in the group stage, leaving France in the same group early.
Olson, who dares to use young players, attaches great importance to the training of young players, which also makes the young players in Denmark gradually take the lead. Unlike the traditional Nordic team's power style of playing, Denmark attaches great importance to ground cooperation, technology and teamwork.
At present, this Danish team places considerable emphasis on passing cooperation and two wings flying together. Both sides and the middle offensive can pose a threat to opponents. In addition, Danish players are generally tall and physically excellent, which makes the team's advantages in both physical confrontation and technology quite prominent.
The number one star in the team is still Tomasson on the front line. As early as the 2002 World Cup, Tomasson was brilliant. As the main striker in Denmark, Tomasen, who scored four goals, is the key player for Denmark to successfully qualify for the group.
Tomarson, who briefly played for Newcastle in the Premier League, became famous in Feyenoord. After the 2002 World Cup, he joined AC Milan and played for three seasons. Most of the time, Tomarson, who served as a substitute, has always maintained a high breaking efficiency.
But since then, the experience of Stuttgart and Villarrell has been unspeakable. In the summer of 2008, Tomasson returned to Feyenoord and has played for him so far.
Tomarson is a rare player who has played in the Netherlands, Premier League, Serie A, Bundesliga and La Liga, but except for his good performance in the Netherlands and Serie A, Tomarson's experience in the Premier League, Bundesliga and La Liga has not been successful.
Although the peak of his career has maintained a high efficiency in the national team, Tomarson, who is about to turn 34, has declined a lot and it is difficult to be the main striker in Denmark.
It is 22-year-old Bentner who replaced Tomasson and took on the task of attacking Denmark. Although Bentner is young, he is already the number one striker in Denmark. After transferring to Arsenal, Bentner has had a rich experience in England, and Bentner's growth every season is eye-oriented. See all.
In the Arsenal formation, due to his delicate foot technology, Bentner is more often a winger, and occasionally has the opportunity to serve as the front arrow in the middle. In the Danish national team, Bentner is the first choice for the front arrow, with foot technology and obvious air superiority Bentner is Dan. At present, the most reliable shooter in the Mai array plays a prominent tactical role in the Danish array.
Compared with the repeated wasted performance of good opportunities at Arsenal, Bentner's performance in the Danish national team is much better. Because of his long career, Bentner's potential is still considerable.
In addition to Bentner, there is also a young man who is also worth looking forward to, that is, the defender Agger, who plays for Liverpool. During his first visit to Liverpool, due to the fierce competition in the central defender position, the young Agel's opportunities to play are limited. Since then, due to frequent injuries, Agle's appearances There are considerable restrictions, but Agel's performance on the defensive line with excellent physical fitness is still recognized, and the air defense advantage is quite obvious. In addition, Agel has a unique skill of long-range shooting.
In the Danish national team, Agel and Kyar, who plays for Palermo and has attracted the attention of the giants, are the first choice in the central defender position. Due to their good complementarity, Agel and the younger Kyaar have been quite successful in the central defender position.
Another team in this group is Cheetah Cameroon from Africa. In the 2006 World Cup qualifiers, Cameroon lost its World Cup qualification at the last moment because it failed to score a key 12 yards. Cameroon's start in the World Cup qualifiers was not ideal, in the top 20 In the Gesai stage, Cameroon's record was only 1 draw and 1 loss after the first two rounds. At a critical time of qualifying situation, the French coach Legan, who had coached Lyon, took over Cameroon, and then Legan led Cameroon to win the World Cup with a four-game winning streak.
Cameroon, nicknamed the "African Lion", is a traditional team in Africa. As early as the 1990 World Cup, Cameroon defeated the defending champion Argentina in the opening match. Finally, Cameroon broke into the quarterfinals in that World Cup, creating an African team The best record in the history of the World Cup.
At present, Cameroon has a large number of players in the European League, and the team also has the strength to hit the quarterfinals of the World Cup again.
In the current Cameroon team, Eto'ao is undoubtedly the most appealing star in the team. Eto'o became famous at a young age and was signed by Real Madrid early, but he has never been able to get enough opportunities to play in Real Madrid. After becoming an efficient scorer in La Liga during his time with Mallorca In the summer of 2004, Etoo was able to join Barcelona.
In the five seasons in Barcelona, Eto'ao has truly become a world-class star. Eto'o, who maintains a high scoring rate, is a key player for Barcelona to dominate in La Liga.
Previously, Eto'ao participated in the 1998 and 2002 World Cups. Among them, Eto'o was only 17 years old when he participated in the 19998 World Cup. Eto'ao, who has a cheetah-like speed, is extremely good at getting rid of defense. With excellent physical fitness, he has a keen sense of smell in front of the goal. Now he has After 29-year-old Eto'ao, in the current year of the fight, his performance will also be directly related to whether Cameroon can appear in the group.
Eto'o is in charge of the front line, and the key to defense is the young player Alexander. Song, Alexander, who gradually gained a foothold in the Arsenal after five seasons of the Premier League. Song, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
The qualifying situation of Group E is also not clear. Of course, the strength of the Netherlands is much stronger than the other three opponents, but whether the Dutch team's performance in the competition can be overcome this time will be the key.
The strength of the two teams in Japan and Cameroon is comparable, and Denmark cannot be ignored, and they can play well in every competition. In the end, Group E will be the two teams to qualify. Now it seems that they still need to wait for the test of the game.
As half the host, Cameroon's performance is worth looking forward to, and they will definitely get more support from fans in the game.
However, the support of the fans is only one aspect. The most important thing depends on Eto'ao's performance. If the African cheetahs can continue his state when he played in Barcelona and Inter Milan, there should be no problem for the Cameroon team.
