Chapter 123 Become a big hit in a blink of an eye
4:0, it was not favored before the game. The odds of winning the championship were only 1 to 56, which was not even as good as that of theIvoire. It was recognized as the weakest Belgian team among the eight group seed teams, but with the most disparate score since the start of the game, the most enjoyable victory, and the happiest laugh , no better than the Belgian coach Antienes.
Antiennis, who was the coach of the Belgian team under great pressure, had a hard time before the game. Due to the pressure of the qualifiers and Spain to qualify as the top of the group, the appetite of Belgian domestic fans was suddenly adjusted. The European Red Devils have been silent for too long, and the fans urgently need one. Good results have restored their confidence in the national team, which also makes Belgium full of expectations for this World Cup.
Fortunately, this time, Degan stood up and showed the strength of the European Red Devils to the world, announcing the recovery of the European Red Devils with a smooth victory.
Although it is too early to say that the Belgian team showed the championship, the Belgian team performed very well in the front, middle and backcourt in this game, and established an advantage in the score early.
On the contrary, European footballer Shevchenko in 2004 performed poorly. Although the team's coach Brosin made some substitution adjustments in the second half in order to recover from the decline, Vaschuk was sent off to disrupt his deployment.
Before the start of this game, almost everyone thought that even if Belgium beat Spain on the stage of the World Cup, it was an indisputable fact that the European Red Devils fell, but in this game, Belgium made the toughest 4-0 hit under the leadership of Degan.
After the game, the title of Sky Sports was "Sparkling Belgium took off smoothly." The article commented that Belgium made a flawless performance and issued a strong warning to the team that aspired to win the World Cup. Two early goals helped them lock in the victory, but they continued to attack, creating the best game since the opening of the World Cup. Although Belgium has felt a little declining in recent years, this time it is obviously different from the past.
The performance of the Ukrainian team in this game was limited by the hot weather and did not give full play to their fierce, impact and fast speed, which also made them accept a fiasco.
At the same time, they exposed the problem of inexperience in the game. The team repeatedly fell into the offside trap in the second half, but they did not change their offensive strategy because of this.
Shevchenko played extremely badly. In the player scoring system, Shevchenko only got four points, which was the lowest score in the team, on the grounds that it was "extremely boring".
The title of 365 Football Magazine is "Belgium brings pain to Ukraine": Belgium has created the most wonderful performance of strong teams since the opening of the World Cup, and they have also proved to people that their goal this time is to change the declining image of the Belgian national team in the past, and their goal is absolutely not It's just a group out.
The headline of the Daily Telegraph is: "Belgium took off smoothly": Belgium won a hearty victory, and Ukraine also set the first place in the World Cup: they gave the first red card of the 2006 World Cup. In the game, Belgium controlled the situation on the field with smooth and skillful cooperation under the big lead, and also used such performance to prove to people that they are playing the most modern and practical football, and their enterprising spirit is enough to make other strong teams ashamed. The Ukrainian team Shevchenko was expected to score a consolation goal, but unfortunately, the footballer failed his nationals.
The Mirror highly praised Degan's excellent performance: although Degan was only a newcomer to the World Cup, he used a hat trick and a near-perfect game to prove his value to people.
Belgium won the game because of Degan's excellent performance, and Degan was also selected as the best player in the game by FIFA after the game.
Ukraine lost 0:4 in the first game. This team from Eastern Europe's first World Cup trip obviously did not play its true level as expected.
And Ukraine's core Shevchenko did not leave any deep memories in his first World Cup appearance. He almost disappeared from the court. Perhaps Ukrainian head coach Blosin should not be so eager to let Shevchenko, who had just recovered from injury, appear.
Shevchenko's best opportunity in this game came from the full stoppage time. A long pass counterattack in the backcourt of Ukraine. After scoring the ball, Shevchenko almost formed a single shot, but in the process of adjustment, he missed this excellent opportunity. At that time, three Belgian players had come up. Blocked. Finally, Shevchenko's shot popped up on the opponent's player. With the end of Shevchenko's shot, Ukraine, which participated in the World Cup for the first time, could only return with hatred. They could not even score a goal to save their face. This is far from the heavyweight match that people expected before the game, and even became an offensive and defensive drill in the whole game.
Shevchenko disappeared from the Belgian defensive players. Of course, there is a reason why his injury has not fully recovered and his competitive status has not reached 100%, but more are due to the insufficient support provided to him by the midfield players.
In this overall sport, the Maradona era is difficult to replicate, and Ukraine cannot become extremely powerful because of the presence of Shevchenko.
Although there are many famous Bundesliga players like Voronin in the team, more people still come from the domestic league in Ukraine. Their level can't be compared with players who play in La Liga and the Premier League.
In AC Milan, behind Shevchenko stands the passers such as Sedorf, Pirlo and Kaka, while Digan and Girardino around him can also use their bodies and good ball control skills to find opportunities for him to shoot.
However, in the Ukrainian national team, there is no such a person at all. No matter how capable Shevchenko is, he stands alone in front of the team alone, and the ball cannot be accurately passed to his feet, so it is difficult for Shevchenko to find an opportunity.
In the first half of the game, his teammate controlled the ball on the left side of the penalty area, while Shevchenko received it on the right side, but the teammate did not pass the ball to him or seek cooperation with him. Instead, he shot himself and missed the goal. When his teammates dealt with this, Shevchenko could only spread out his hands helplessly.
In addition, in this game, the Belgian team showed super ball control ability under the tactic with Degan as the core, which also made Ukrainian players very uncomfortable. When it was difficult for them to break the ball, the support provided to Shevchenko was naturally reduced.
And the hot weather makes their mouth dry, physiological discomfort, coupled with the anxious mentality when the score is behind, the whole Ukrainian team is almost in a state of at a loss.
In the overall downturn, Shevchenko obviously has no way to save the team alone. To prove himself in the World Cup, Shevchenko seems to have to wait for the next two opponents in the group, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia.
After the game, Ukrainian coach Blosin also seemed helpless: "Before the game, we were fully prepared for difficulties, including the impact of hot weather on our players, but after all, it was our first time to participate in the World Cup, and the players were obviously inexperienced."
Regarding the referee's judgment, Blohin said: "The referee's judgment is a little heavy. This game has greatly improved our experience. In the future training, our players will know what to do and what not to do."
Although they lost 0-4 in the first game of the group stage, the public opinion in Ukraine is still looking forward to the national team that entered the World Cup finals for the first time, believing that the possibility of the group qualifying still exists.
The Communist Youth League Pravda of Ukraine said that June 14 is a "black day" on the Ukrainian calendar. Ukrainians have been waiting for this game for 15 years. Thousands of fans gathered in the Independence Square in the center of Kiev in the rain to watch the live broadcast on the big screen, but finally waited for the result. Just after the game, it rained heavily in Kiev, which was crying for the Ukrainian team.
The Ukrainian mainstream magazine Reporter published an article on its website that although Ukraine lost its first game, there is still hope for the group to qualify. In another game in Group H, Saudi Arabia and Tunisia drew 2:2, which gave Ukraine a big loss to Spain a chance to qualify for the group. The Ukrainian team led by Blosin must fight hard in the remaining two group matches, because Saudi Arabia and Tunisia are difficult opponents.
No matter what the Ukrainians think of the big loss, Degan, who won, walked off the field with a smile. He scored a hat-trick in the match against Ukraine and was obviously very satisfied with his first World Cup match.
"I'm very satisfied to be able to score goals. Especially when I win the ball, I feel even happier. I hope the Belgian team can go smoother and smoother after such a good start.
Before Degan joined Belgium, the Belgian team always gave people an old-fashioned impression, and the outside world thought that the team lacked the temperament of getting good results.
But with Degan, it is completely different. In the past, it was difficult for Belgium to win such a smooth victory, but today they did.
"I'm glad that the team can perform like this today. All of us performed perfectly on the field. Of course, we also missed a few opportunities, otherwise, the score of this game will be bigger!"
In this World Cup, Degan's goal is to aim at the final championship. Although he knows that it is difficult, since he has come to the stage of the World Cup, there is no reason for him not to try it.
In addition to the World Cup champion, the Golden Boot Award is undoubtedly his other goal. Previously, the goal record of the best scorer in the World Cup was 13 goals scored by Frenchman Fontaine in the 1958 World Cup, and the holder of the total number of goals in the World Cup was German. Mueller scored a total of 14 goals on the stage of the World Cup.
What Degan has to do is to surpass them and become the top scorer king of the World Cup.
In addition, another goal is to defeat his own brother Kaka. In the previous game, Brazil defeated Croatia 1-0, and it was Kaka who scored a decisive goal.
Since Kaka has scored on the stage of the World Cup, there is no reason for Degan to fall behind. In a hat-trick, Digan undoubtedly took the lead in the battle between the Wright brothers.
"I'm glad that the Brazilian team can win. Of course, I'm more happy that Ricado scored, but now I just want to play for Belgium. Brazil has become a thing of the past. I give up Brazil, and I can't say whose fault it is. Pereira has his choice. In his opinion, Adriano is obviously much better than me. !"
Every time he sighed about Pereira, Digan couldn't help but be full of resentment. At the beginning, Pereira's disregard made him finally decide to leave five-star Brazil. Now he uses a hat-trick to tell the stubborn Brazilian who is the best striker.
Compared with Digan's perfect premiere, Adriano, who was highly expected by Pereira, failed to show his due strength in the first game. In the whole game, there was only one shot, and the result was a soft and weak shot, which could not pose a threat to Croatia's goal at all.
If Kaka hadn't performed bravely in the game and scored a goal, perhaps the World Cup premiere of the defending champion would have ended in a dull draw.
However, Pereira will obviously not regret the original choice: "I will only choose those disciplined players to represent the Brazilian team!"
In a word, Pereira almost caused disaster. Compared with Adriano, who had sex before and after the game, Digan was simply a model of discipline. Pereira's statement was obviously unreasonable.
"Adriano is more in line with my tactical arrangement, so when I chose Adriano as the main force in the qualifiers, and Degan obviously couldn't understand this, so he made such a radical move. Now it doesn't make sense to say that he is now a Brazilian, and Like Oliveira at the beginning, that's his choice.
Pereira's mouth is hard. If you really want to bow your head and admit defeat, I'm afraid you can only wait until the day when Belgium and Brazil meet at the World Cup.
"I'm looking forward to that day coming earlier, and I will never show mercy!"
Before the group stage is over, Degan can't restrain his miss for Brazil!
