Chapter 196 Three Battles Win

The 2014 World Cup in Brazil entered the third round of the group stage. There were 14 teams in the previous seven groups and were successfully promoted. Before the start of the third round of Group H, Belgium won two games and qualified ahead of schedule. Although South Korea has hope, it expects them to win and needs to defeat Belgium. It is basically an impossible task, so the match between Algeria and Russia will directly determine another qualifying place in Group H.

Before the game against Algeria, Russia scored only 1 point with 1 draw and 1 loss, while its opponent Algeria had 1 win, 1 loss and 3 points, so if Russia wants to qualify, it must defeat Algeria.

The initial trend of the game is completely beneficial to Russia. In just five minutes, Russia was led by Colin. If this score can be maintained to the end, Russia will be qualified.

However, I don't know whether it has committed its usual conservative old problem again at this time, or is full of confidence in its "1-0"ism. Russia did not show its advantages in the subsequent competition.

On the contrary, in the second half of the game, it was scored by Algeria's Slimani's header, 1:1, and by the end of the game, the score did not change, and Russia was also eliminated.

This is the second time that Capello led the national team to compete in a world competition, but he has never achieved satisfactory results. In the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Capello played in the World Series for the first time as England's coach. After straying out of the group stage, they met their old opponents in the eighth final. German team.

Although England may still have an excuse for the referee in that game, it is indeed an indisputable fact that England is not as good as others in the whole game. 1:4, England lost completely.

This year's World Cup in Brazil was Capello's second World Series. As a result, Russia did not even qualify for the group this time. In a total of seven games in the two World Cups he led the team, he led the team to only one victory.

Ironically, Capello suddenly announced his resignation before the 2012 European Championship because of Terry. In fact, even if Capello led the team to participate in the European Championship, his prospects were not favored. Therefore, once Capello did not resign, the defeat of the World Cup in Brazil may lead to this The famous "World Series failed hat-trick."

Conservatism is Capello's label, and boring football has been criticized for a long time, but he can always succeed at the club level.

For example, he once led AC Milan to play 58 consecutive unbeaten league games in the classic league history. For example, he led Rome, which has not been champion for many years, to regain the league trophy in the century. For example, he held the Pope twice and won the league championship twice, but now his consecutive defeat has made people start to re-examine This famous coach, does the coach's success in the club depend on the club's payment to buy people for him, and in the national team, without such conditions, can Capello continue to be magical?

The next World Cup will be held in Russia, and Capello's poor coaching performance in this tournament will certainly make Russia re-examine whether it is suitable for Russia's coach.

If Capello can still last until 2018, then he must make rapid progress in Russia, which has no bright spots, to maintain his reputation for the rest of his life.

Capello is tragic. Compared with him, the Algerian coach Halihovic, who is completely a small role, was extremely excited after the game. At the post-match press conference, the coach said excitedly: "We played a heroic game and deserve to qualify in the group. In the past three years, Al Nigerian football has made great progress. In this World Cup, the whole Arab world is behind us, which has helped us achieve good results, and we have also gained a lot of support in Brazil, which makes us very proud. In addition, I am also proud of the way the players play and coach such a ball. The team makes me happy.

Algeria, which made its debut in the World Cup in 1982, surprised people. At that time, they defeated West Germany 2:1 in the first round of the group stage. Although they lost 0:2 to Austria in the second round, they defeated Chile 3:2 in the last round.

Unfortunately, the match between West Germany and Austria was later in the last round, and the two teams played a tacit match, and West Germany beat Austria 1-0. In the end, West Germany, Austria and Algeria all had 2 wins, 1 loss and 6 points, but Algeria was eliminated because of fewer goal difference. It was after that World Cup that FIFA stipulated that the last round of the group stage must be held at the same time.

And this time in the eighth final of the World Cup in Brazil, Algeria's opponent happened to be Germany. Halihovic is looking forward to performing a miracle and revenge for a scene 32 years ago: "I hope to continue to enjoy this victory, but in the next few days, everyone will talk about the 1982 World Cup Algi We will not forget that Leah defeated West Germany. Of course, 32 years have passed. This is a long time. Will Algeria perform better this time and defeat Germany? Why not? I know it's difficult. Our support rate is not as good as that of Germany, but I hope more people will cheer for us. I know that the Brazilian people love football, and Algeria can bring wonderful football to everyone.

In another game at the same time, the result was not unexpected. Belgium still washed South Korea with 6:30 under the truce of half of the main forces. Degan scored a hat-trick during the game, updating his goals in this World Cup to seven, ranking first in the scorer list. In addition, De Brunet, Miralas, and Fellani, who recovered from injury in this game, each scored one goal.

Although the Koreans worked very hard in the game, even Degan's wife Park Ji-yeon "de defected" among the South Korean fans to cheer for the Taiji Tiger, but the strength gap between the two teams is so big that there is no comparison at all.

After defeating South Korea, Belgium won three games in the group stage and appeared smoothly. In the 1/8 final, they will face the United States. Although there are strong stars such as Dempsey and Bradley in the U.S. team, compared with Belgium, their strength is obviously at a disadvantage. Belgium The next round doesn't seem to be a problem.
