Chapter 111 Chaos and Clarity 6

The last group, Group H, because Spain lost unexpectedly in the first round, the qualifying situation of this group became complicated before the start of the second round.

After defeating Spain, the whole Swiss team was full of morale and faced Chile in the second round of the group stage. Before the game started, Heathfield was already shouting two wins and advanced to qualify.

The development of the game seems to be approaching Heathfield's efforts. In the 66th minute of the first match between Switzerland and Chile, there was a sudden jubilation in the Swiss audience. The team has surpassed Italy's 550-minute World Cup without conceded, which also means that Swiss goalkeeper Benalio's door As long as they don't lose, they are setting new records.

But soon, the Chileans fixed the glory of the Swiss, three substitutes for the Chilean team, Valvidia, Paredes and Mark. Gonzalez teamed up to score a goal, making the new record only 9 minutes more than the original, and the real hero of the director's scene was the "crazy" Bertha on the coaching bench.

The first game between Chile and Switzerland was a very obvious match. The main attack of the Chilean team led by the madman Bertsa and the Swiss team led by Heathfield were stable and waiting for the opportunity to fight back. Therefore, football was played in the half of the Swiss team throughout the first half of the game, but due to the intensive defense of the Swiss team, the Chileans had no France really threatened the city of the Swiss team.

Belsa saw the problem. In the second half, he waved his handsome flag, Valdivia and Mark. Gonzalez played at the same time, and in the 65th minute, he sent another attacker Paredes to the field. With 25 minutes left in the game, Crazy Belsa had played all three cards.

The madman's move was immediate. The three immediately created a goal by running. At that time, the Valdivia midfielder sent a low-level ball and a straight plug. Paredes went offside and inserted diagonally from the left side of the penalty area to the right side, which immediately disrupted the order of the whole Swiss defense. Paredes passed the attacking goalkeeper Benalio After that, the bottom line passed to the back post, another substitute Mark. Gonzalez scored with a header.

After the game, the Chilean media highly praised Belsa's three substitutions: "The magical coach once again showed his magical side, and Belsa's substitution was crazy and full of courage."

At present, Belsa is very popular in Chile. As early as the last round against Honduras, Chilean fans in the stands played the slogan "Thank you, Belsa", and Chile also defeated Honduras in that game.

Belsa had said earlier that he liked the nickname "mad", and the reason why the outside world called him so was not only because of Belsa**'s overflowing coaching style, but also describing his aggressive tactics.

Belsa loves to use the 3313 formation, and has strict tactical discipline and unique eyesight. After coaching the Chilean team, Belsa chose a group of players with physical ability and unique characteristics. Most of them play in the European second-rate league, but Belsa's ** is very successful. At present, this team is not Only the playing style is clear, the attack is pleasing to the eyes, and the scoring efficiency is quite high. In this World Cup South America qualifiers, Chile qualified in second place, scoring only one less than Brazil.

In his early years, when he coached the Argentine national team, Belsa often let the team play a pleasing attack and advanced to the 2002 World Cup.

However, at the World Cup between South Korea and Japan, Belsa's team returned home after encountering the Waterloo group match. Although it later led Argentina to win the Athens Olympic championship, there has been endless controversy about him.

In Argentina, public opinion generally believes that Belsa's offensive style is a double-edged sword, which is too aggressive. When Argentina fights with a strong team with high technical and tactical literacy, it is easy to be caught by the opponent's shortcomings after attack.

After handing over the Argentine national team, Belsa quickly proved his coaching ability in Chile. In this World Cup, Chile is also one of the most distinctive teams.

At present, Chile likes to use the name "magic coach" to praise Belsa. Although public opinion has been controversial about Belsa, one thing is certain that an offensive maniac coach like Belsa may not be the top coach, but his personality and style of play have always been the world football. A very charming part of each genre.

In the next game, Spain, which unexpectedly lost in the first round of the group, played an excellent game, completely overwhelming Honduras. If the opportunity is well grasped, it can completely slaughter the opponent.

On the basis of ball control and passing, the Spanish team added two factors of depth and decisiveness, which is very positive and attractive.

Bosco formed a 433 formation, Florence beast waist Machena as the main midfielder, Harvey and Alonso were in the front, Navas appeared on the right side, Villa played on the left side, Torres played the center, for Honduran players, the court seemed a little wider, and Villa again and again The left road forms a breakthrough.

More importantly, the brain of the national team plays a role. In every area of the stadium and every minute of the game, the Spanish team has the wisdom to read the game.

Under the protection of Macena, Harvey and Alonso can easily allocate space and functions to complete the game. They have no obstacle to the rhythm. On the contrary, they can always touch the ball very cleanly and quickly, often passing by one foot. The wisdom of the two midfielders, Harvey and Alonso Hui, so that Hondurans can only run with the ball and can't figure it out at all.

Under the leadership of the midfield, the Spanish team played decisively and created many opportunities in the first half, but Torres's lack of accuracy made it impossible for Spain to expand the score before entering the locker room to rest.

In the second half, Villa's goal came from Harvey's counterattack after Macenna's break, and the Spanish midfielder played an important role in the victory of the game.

Specifically, it took some time for Alonso to adapt to the game. After all, the position moved forward made him feel a little strange. He is not used to playing in such a small space, but he ate the opponent's midfield with Marcena and Harvey, especially the long pass.

Alonso helped the team make good use of the two sides. He was very active in the front court and promoted the ball. His accurate pass gave the team a good choice and often caught the Honduran defender off guard. His steal in the midfield is also crucial for the Spanish team.

Machena's performance is even more eye-catching. Although he appears more in the central defender position in Spain, his job is a midfield interceptor in Florence. In this game, Marcena protected the defense well and killed a few opponents. He even assisted forward with a counterattack opportunity, and his two breakthroughs made him win the cheers of the fans in the stands.

After the first game, Busquets was criticized by the media. In this game, Bosk decisively took off the Best Actor and sent him to the Fiorentina tough man Macenna. After Marcena played, although the autumn wind was not as beautiful as Busquets, he always contributed silently as the team's single back, his survival Keep the team balanced, and his replacement is crucial when the two full-backs continue to assist.

As for Harvey, Spain needs players like him very much. As always, he has become the brain of the team, providing the team with passing and vision to help the team control the wide court. He controlled the progress of the game with his core demeanor. As the commander-in-chief of Spain, Harvey has reached the highest level in this game, and he is also the chief engineer of the Spanish team's attack, and his role is very obvious.

In the match against Switzerland, Spain was most criticized by the midfield, but in the match against Honduras, the team added a midfielder like Marcena, and the performance of the Spanish midfielder improved significantly.

Spain defeated Honduras and is back on the right track. The group qualifying situation of Group H is also clear. In the last round, as long as Spain defeats Chile, it will definitely qualify.

Now, among the four teams in Group H, Chile has won six points, Spain has three points for one win and one loss, Switzerland has one win and one loss, and Honduras has zero points in both games.

According to FIFA rules, in the case of the same score, the winning goals of each team are compared, so in the last round, three teams of Chile, Switzerland and Spain may accumulate six points at the same time. In this case, the winning goals of the three teams will be compared, and the two teams with more goals will qualify, and the last round Chile will play against Spain and Switzerland against Honduras.

Therefore, if Spain wants to qualify, there are three situations: winning and out; draw, while Switzerland is not winning, Spain is out; Spain loses, Switzerland loses, and the goal difference is over Switzerland.

If Spain defeats Chile, the goal difference will definitely surpass Chile and lock in the team's qualifying place. At this time, Chile and Switzerland will compare the goal difference and decide to qualify.

At the same time, Switzerland will compare the goal difference with Spain to determine the first place in the group. Spain now has one more goal than the Swiss team. In the last round, as long as it does not win one goal less than Switzerland, it will lock in the first place in the group.

At present, it should not be a problem for Spain, which is starting to get on the right track, but they should be careful of the madness of the Chileans. After all, it seems reasonable for a team led by a madman to do anything.

Switzerland, which won the first round and broke Buffon's record of not conceded goals, wants to appear in the group. In addition to defeating Honduras, it also depends on the results of the Spanish and Chileans before it can be finalized. But Honduras, which has been out early, does not seem to be helpless.
