Chapter 107 Chaos and Clarity 2

Because of the continuous draw, the situation of Group C's qualifying situation has become more chaotic and confusing. Slovenia, with one win and one draw, ranked first in the group, followed by the United States and England with two consecutive draws. Even Algeria, who also got one point, still has the hope of qualifying. I'm afraid what will happen to this group in the end? I can only save it until the last round.

In Group D, Germany and Ghana, which won the first game, obviously took the initiative. Almost everyone thought that the team played by the Boateng brothers would eventually qualify, but when the second round of the competition ended, people found that it was a big mistake. The situation not only did not become clear, but became more chaotic. .

Almost everyone expected the Germans to appear in advance in the first match between Germany and Serbia, but the result was unexpected. The Germans lost the game 0:1.

After the game, although the best goalkeeper Stojkovic was awarded to save Podowski's penalty kick, it was only the striker jicic who really brought three points to Serbia.

Ric is Antich's confidant. In the latter's World Cup plan, the tall man with a height of 202CM in the single striker firmly occupies the main position.

Zikichi can carry the ball and has a good header. On the front line, he can not only score by himself, but also set up a gun rack to create opportunities for his teammates. In the first game, Antich also criticized the relevant players after the game because of insufficient support for Rikichi in the midfield.

Antich emphasized the important position of Ric. The effect was obvious. In the first minute of the opening, Ric's header played a powerful role, and he almost assisted Jovanovic to score.

The two German central defenders Frederick 185CM and Mertsack 196CM are not low, but the problem is that Rikic is very tall but flexible in running, which makes the two German central defenders quite difficult.

In the 22nd minute, Ric received a corner kick from his teammate under the bag of the two central defenders, and the header threatened the German goal, and the ball was slightly deflected.

In the next game, the German team has always had no choice but to take the high point of Rikich. In the 38th minute, Krasic passed the back point, and there was only 170cm of Ram around him. How could he block the 202CM Rikic?

The answer is certainly no.

The tall man ferred easily, and the unguarded Jovanovic in the middle swept into the net in the small penalty area, and Serbia took the lead 1-0.

After that, Rikic, who had so much confidence, "bullied" the German central defender almost to a heinous extent. He headed the goal and ferried the ball. Rikichi was omnipotent in the German team's penalty area, and the German defender, who has always stood at the top of Europe, has never been so embarrassed under the frenzy of Zikic.

There are many elders in football. There used to be Yankel and Jankole, but now they are jicic.

For him, most of the fans recognize him from La Liga. In 2006, he transferred from Red Star Belgrade to Sporting Santander, scoring 12 goals in 32 games in a season, and his forward partner Munitis was known as the "Tiger Brother Panther Brother".

Because of his excellent performance, he then moved to Valencia, but was not reused. He only made 28 appearances and scored 5 goals in the 2007/09 season. In the summer of 2009, he was loaned back to Santander and regained his feeling, scoring 13 goals in 19 games and helping Serbia enter the World Cup.

Unfortunately, fans will not see Ric in next season's La Liga game. Before the start of the World Cup, Valencia sold him to Birmingham in the Premier League for a transfer fee of 8 million euros.

When seeing Rikichi's excellent performance in the game against Germany, did Valencia regret selling people cheaply?

The Serbs defeated the powerful Germany with the excellent performance of Ćkić, and the German lost obviously not only because of a Ćqi, but their own problems.

The German team seems to be strong, but in fact, how many people can really use it in their 23-man list?

Marlin, who appeared as a substitute in this game, barely made the 23-man list by virtue of his performance in the last warm-up match and the team's extensive injury.

Marlin is regarded as a side striker by Loreve, but in fact, Marin can really play a role far less than Lorew thought. When Marlin rose to fame in the Bundesliga, he was a sharp breakthrough, but in fact, in the season just ended, Marlin's performance in the league was far less than that of Ozil. The future of the national team was also very uncertain.

Marlin's breakthrough is indeed very characteristic, but there is no chance at all in physical confrontation. As long as the defender does not run out and be completely passed by him, he can use his physical advantage to carry Marin behind him.

As for Gomez, his performance in the German national team has never been satisfactory. It is undeniable that in some stalemate games, Gomez's physical condition and strength can become a good attack point for the team. He can use his crazy running and strong impact to create opportunities, but recall Leff should be sober in the 2008 European Cup. This Mario is not super at all.

And Kakao, a Brazilian with German nationality, did not have any highlights after playing as a substitute in this game. The contribution data is 0 shots, not even an offside.

In fact, there is still Kisming on the bench of the German team. Kisming has scored 21 goals in the Bundesliga this season, but in Lough's eyes, Kisming is far from ranking, and he is only a final substitute in the German striker.

However, seeing Kakaw's performance today, Loraf should consider moving Kislin's position forward. After all, the game against Ghana is related to the team's qualifying, and it is really not reassuring to expect Kakaw's performance today.

In fact, the problems in Germany's attack line today can expose a dangerous signal from other aspects of Germany. Midfielders Khedira and Schwein Steiger are now on yellow cards, but there are no real midfielders on the bench of the German team.

If any of them are suspended, they can only make a guest appearance with Ogg or Boateng on the bench, and these two players are now more in full-back positions.

I'm afraid the biggest headache for Lov in this game is Klose's suspension. After losing the number one main striker, who can make an arrow on the front line?

In a series of previous German games, Gomez was definitely the first choice, but now Gomez's performance is disappointing every time he goes on the field, and his position in Lov's heart has been shaken.

As for Kakao, he can hardly see any Brazilians on his body. No matter how to stop the ball and his extraordinary skills, he is really German.

After today's game, Loe needs to face two problems, how to relieve the pressure of the team and let the players play normally in the next game. In addition, just think about what to do with the substitutes in the team.

The substitutes are not good. In this game, the main players also failed to make Loeb happy. The German team is not without a good opportunity to equalize in this game, or in fact, the German team has enough opportunities to win in this game. However, the German striker Podolski, who is highly expected, used his own wave shot. Now everything has been destroyed.

After Podolski opened the game, he got a good opportunity to score a goal. Although he did not score, he looked quite good. When everyone thought that Podolsky could continue his excellent state, Podolsky's performance was getting worse and worse in the later games, and he even destroyed the Germans. It has maintained a glorious tradition for 28 years.

Klose was sent off. When Germany fell behind 0:1, Löw did not change the striker. In Löw's eyes, there was Prince Porty. Although Bordolski only scored two goals in the previous league, an average of one goal every 900 minutes, because Podolsky has always been in the country. The team has performed well, so in Lov's heart, Podowski is the absolute core of the team.

Podolski got a lot of opportunities in this game, and even if the German team had one less, it created a lot of shooting opportunities. But Podolsky's bad state made opportunities slip away from his feet again and again.

The most unacceptable thing was that God gave the Germans a chance to equalize the penalty. Of course, Podowski stood in front of the penalty spot. At this most critical moment, in front of the penalty spot that the Germans were best at, Podolski kicked the ball into the arms of the Serbian goalkeeper.

Podolski's penalty loss was the first German team to lose a penalty in the World Cup since 1982. Previously, Stilick missed a penalty in 1982 with France, and Germany's penalty in the non-penalty final was Henes in 1974. Podoersky is 36 years away from this record. History of the year.

Podowski obviously broke the rules of the Germans. With his penalty banquet, the magical monument of penalty kicks in German football over the past 28 years collapsed.

In addition to the penalty, Podowski had seven shots in this game, but none of the shots hit the goal range. The penalty was the only time Podowski hit the goal range tonight. He finally shot right, but he really shot too right.

In the next life-and-death battle against Ghana, perhaps Lov should really think about the selection of the front line.

In the next game of Group D, the Australian took the lead early, but in the 23rd minute of the game, a red card and a penalty completely pushed the Australian into the abyss. Cowell, who was sent off, almost bid farewell to the World Cup early because of this red card.

At that time, football did concentrate Cowell's arm, but in slow motion, Cowell did not take the initiative to block the ball, but hit Cowell's upper arm. Even if the referee decides to continue the game, I believe that Ghanaian players will not have too many complaints.

After the penalty, the score was tied, and the Australian had one less core player with the team's best skills, Cowell, and due to an equally harsh red card in the last game, another Australian star Cahill was unable to play and lost two at once. The core players put Australia at a complete disadvantage in the following game time.

Moreover, Cowell will not be able to play in the next game. They must win Serbia to have a chance to appear. Australia's qualifying prospects are becoming more and more difficult. Rossetti's red card may be an important reason for Australia to leave the World Cup directly.

If Cahill, the absolute core, got a red card and ruined the World Cup journey because of a misjudgment, which has made the kangaroo Legion look bitter enough, then Cowell, who is terminally ill today, replaced Cahill and was sent off with a red card again, adding to the Australians' World Cup journey. A strong sense of sadness. The limited 20 minutes of playing against Ghana is likely to become Cowell's own masterpiece in the World Series.

In the limited playing time, Cowell, who started as a single arrow, has done his best. After the opening, he had a break in the opponent's penalty area and was knocked down by the Ghanaian defender, but the referee did not make any penalty at that time.

When receiving a teammate's pass, Cowell was repeatedly pushed to the ground by Ghanaian defender Jonathan, but the 31-year-old veteran still did his best to compete for the landing point.

After the game, Cowell cried sadly on the sidelines, which made countless fans in front of the TV feel more worried. After the half-time whistle, all the fans sent boos, which were undoubtedly given to the referee, because he killed a star's last World Cup dream.

The 2010 World Cup in South Africa was the last World Cup trip to investigate Cowell, who was born with a strange disease, as early as eight years ago. Because as 2002, during a routine physical examination of the national team, Cowell had been diagnosed with a rare disease called "autoimmune hepatitis" .

At that time, the doctor concluded that Cowell could live for up to 5 to 8 years, but under effective long-term treatment, Cowell has lived healthily until now and has been active in professional arenas.

For any senior Premier League fan, Cowell is a role that can never be erased from their memory. In his early years, after the youth guard Leeds, Cowell not only helped the team reach the Champions League semi-finals and complete the incredible youth guard myth, but also won the title of Best Young Player in the Premier League.

After moving to Liverpool, Cowell also appeared on Istanbul night. Although Cowell missed most of the games due to injury during his career at Anfield, Cowell is definitely a milestone figure in the history of more than 10 years in England.

The Australian team doctor once urged Cowell to stop his football career, but Cowell said, "If one day I can no longer meet the team's expectations, I will opt out, but only at this time will I stop myself."

In such a bad physical condition, Cowell still helped Turkey's Galatasaray Club play 23 games in the past season and magically scored 12 goals.

Dragging his life-threatening and injured body, he was able to hand in almost two games and one goal in just half a season. Cowell's willpower to efficiency is enough to make many big strikers feel ashamed.

Staying away from his wife and daughter in the UK and going from Liverpool to Turkey to play football alone, this is not only to repay the gratitude of the Galatasaray Club for his unyedienable encounter with him knowing that he is terminally ill, but also to accumulate enough savings for his family in his limited life.

Before this World Cup, Cowell volunteered to play with Australian head coach Welbeck. He himself said: "I came here for the World Cup. Whether it's injury, illness or anything, everything is not as important to me. If it weren't for the World Cup, I wouldn't be It will appear here, it's that simple.

Infected with a terminal illness, a timid person can't face such a cruel reality and often curl up and wait for death. Most people will choose to give up football in his situation, but Cowell does not. He is a real warrior, a warrior who fights to the end.

But now, with a red card and a draw, I'm afraid that Cowell's World Cup will really say goodbye in advance.

With Ghana's 1:1 match with Australia, after the first two rounds of Group D of the World Cup, Ghana ranked first with one win and one draw with four points, Germany ranked second with one win and one loss with three points, Serbia ranked third with one win and one loss with three points, and Australia ranked first with one draw and one loss, ranking Bottom.

The situation in the last round of the group stage is that Ghana, which is temporarily ranked first, against Germany, which ranks second, and Serbia, which ranks third, will face Australia, which ranks third.

In theory, the four teams still have a chance to qualify, but the qualifying situation of Germany, Ghana and Serbia is in their own hands, while Australia's chance of qualifying is very slim.

The German team must not lose in the last game. Since Serbia will encounter Australia in the last round, any result will have a team of points that surpass the losing Germany. Therefore, Germany will definitely be eliminated once it loses in the last round.

Because Serbia and Australia can't win together in the last round, Germany's victory over Ghana will ensure a six-point qualifying, and because the goal difference is dominant, it is likely to qualify first in the group.

If the German team draws, it will need Serbia to draw with Australia, or not lose to Australia with a super high score of 0:8 or more, but the probability of such an outcome is negligible and almost impossible.

In the last round of a group, Australia can basically only serve their honor in World War II, and the other three teams will compete for two qualifying places in the group.
