The top prediction at the start, I am the third ball king

Chapter 537 The media's concerns about the Spanish defense
Germany is a thrilling victory over France, and the reason why Spain is cautious is because of the stable performance of the German team in the World Series.

France regretted being out. Benzema said in an interview: "I am very happy to be here for France. I am still young and I can still play in the next World Cup."

For the future of the team, Benzema is also full of confidence: "The French team performed very well in this World Cup, stronger than the previous competitions.

The team is still very young, with a lot of fresh blood, they need time to grow, our future is very bright, I believe we will prove ourselves in the future games. "

At the end of the interview, Benzema did not forget to complain about the weather in Brazil: "It's too hot here, which is a kind of harm to the players. This also affects our performance to a certain extent."

As Benzema said, the French team is now in a running-in period, and many players on the team are still young, so despite the loss, the fans of the Gallic Rooster do not need to be sad.

Given time, this French team can indeed shock the world.

German coach Loew said in an interview after the game: "We are eager for the championship, but we need to get the semi-finals first."

Talking about this game, Loew said: "The defensive performance of both teams is very good. We didn't give the opponent too many chances. Although the opponent's offense was very strong, we also failed to score the second goal. We can resolve it. The threat of players such as Benzema.

We believe that the French team will make more fuss from the side, so it is normal for the French team to play a lot of high balls in the second half, especially at the end of the game.

The partnership of Boateng and Hummels is also a tactical consideration. We have seen that the opponent is fast and values ​​the combination of the side and the center.

Mertesacker is still very important, he knew it last night and said there is no problem, he knows how to support the team, he responded very well. "

Regarding the next semi-finals, Loew said: "I don't know yet how to line up for the next game. Today, some players who were injured before have gritted their teeth to the end. We will have a good rest and adjust before watching."

Regarding the reason why Lahm played right back today, Loew continued: "In the past games, Lahm also played on the right many times. The advantage of our tactics is that we can play different tactics.

The center is difficult, so we also need to protrude more from the side. There are many reasons for Lahm to play on the right. "

The German team once again entered the semi-finals. Can they enter the finals or even win the championship this time?

Loew said: "Whether we can enter the semi-finals shows our strength. We have entered the semi-finals in the past few competitions. We have won 31 of the past 28 official games. This is a reflection of the strength of the team."

Regarding Neuer's performance, Loew said: "The trust in Neuer is not only from me or the coaching staff, but the trust of the whole team in him. Everyone knows that there is such a player who has good control inside and outside the penalty area. A goalkeeper, he has all the abilities, he is even the best goalkeeper today."

After learning that Spain defeated Colombia, the German coach shared his opinion: "Spain is the defending champion, and the team has many players with experience in major competitions. This game will be difficult.

All we have to do is to give full play to our own characteristics. As for the result... it is up to God to decide! "

The well-known England star Owen talked about his views on Germany in an interview with the media. He believed that the German team was in an average state, did not run at full strength, and had many technical mistakes.

The performance of the French team was a bit unexpected. Their midfielders mostly chose long passes to avoid entanglement with the German team and directly hit behind.

"The German defenders have a hard time defending against this kind of attack. The French team poses a lot of threats. They have a lot of opportunities, but they are not very good at finishing.

The German team did not score in the open game, just a free kick.Although some threatening balls were obtained afterwards, it was also because the opponent's pressure caused the defense to be empty. "

Owen said: "If Germany is still in this state in the semi-finals, it will be difficult for them to beat Spain."

Speaking of Spain, Owen talked about his views on Li Chuanqi: "Li's injury has limited his performance. In the past, we can see his soul-stirring breakthroughs on the field. Now he basically has no breakthroughs. This is a It's a pity.

With time, though, Lee will be fit again, perhaps in Germany's game.

So, whether the German team's defense can guard against him will determine who will advance to the final.

I remember that when Lee was in Malaga, he once played against Dortmund in the Champions League knockout round. I was very impressed by the second round of the game.

If Malaga's defense hadn't been so bad, and if Lee hadn't gone off early, the result of that game would be hard to say. "

When talking about the match between Spain and Colombia, Owen said: "Colombia played well in the first half and led by a goal, but after Lee came on the field, the situation on the field changed.

I feel that Columbia's defense is very unconfident when facing Lee. Once he gets the ball, he will attract the attention of the entire defense.

You must know that Li is injured now, and he basically has no breakthrough on the field. The Colombian defense should focus on other Spanish players. "

Some media criticized Colombia's conservative style of play, Owen said: "Facing a team like Spain, if you attack and play against them, it would be an extremely wrong thing.

There is no problem with Colombia's defensive tactics. Their main problem is defense, which failed to limit several threatening players in Spain. "

When the Spanish media talked about the match between Spain and Colombia, they expressed concerns about the defense. Mundo Deportivo said: "In a match against a team like Colombia, the opponent only had five shots in the entire game, but scored one goal.

This shows that Spain's defense is problematic.

Bosque will have to solve the defense problem in the next few days, because Germany is much stronger than Colombia! "

Aspen said: "The amazing attack cannot conceal the problem of the defense. Spain is the team that has conceded the most goals among all the teams entering the quarterfinals. This is an embarrassing thing.

While we are cheering for Spain to reach the semi-finals, it cannot be ignored that the performance of the Spanish defense has not met people's expectations.

Our reporter interviewed Bosque by phone. When Bosque talked about the defense, he said, "I know we have problems in the defense, and we are also working hard to solve them. Compared with the group stage, we have made great improvements and improvements."I hope you don't overlook this! '

Compared with the group stage, Spain's defense has indeed improved a lot, conceding only one goal.

But if Spain wants to compete for the championship, the defense must be improved!

Not to mention reaching the level of four years ago, at least reaching the level of the European Cup two years ago! "
