future king

On the fifth match day, the Huaxia Hong Kong team's game against Brazil will be played at the end. The first two games have already become the warm-up match of the last game in the hearts of Chinese fans.

Especially the first game, New Zealand vs. Slovakia, was destined to become a warm-up match that no one cared about, no matter in terms of the attention or popularity of the two teams.

In the end, the two teams also maintained the style of the warm-up game. They played tepidly to 1:1, and ended peacefully, each scoring one point.

Trembling, unable to let go, usually the first time, but today Slovakia said no like common sense!The match against New Zealand was the first match in the history of Slovakia to participate in the World Cup finals. It was a historic moment in Slovak football. However, the whole Slovak team played calmly and calmly in the game, and finally scored a historic goal and a precious 1 point ; and New Zealand, which is also a big team, also relied on perseverance and relied on Reed's stoppage time goal to grab 1 point.The two teams scored the first point in their country's World Cup history at the same time, which is enough to make the national football team who swallowed 1 shots and scored 02 point in the 9 World Cup feel ashamed.

Although there is Hamsik in the formation.A big-name player like Skrtel, but Slovakia's overall strength is extremely weak compared to other European powerhouses.In the World Cup qualifiers, being able to beat the already declining Czech team to qualify for the World Cup has been regarded as a huge upset.This World Cup is the first time in the history of Slovakia to participate in the World Cup finals, and the weak Slovakia is therefore misunderstood as a soy sauce, and the group stage is bound to be eliminated.

Compared with Slovakia, although New Zealand participated in the World Cup once 28 years ago, it failed in three games and lost miserably.After 28 years, New Zealand returned to the World Cup stage. The prospect of New Zealand is not optimistic. It can be said that it is the worst team in this tournament. Some media even asserted that New Zealand’s overall strength is not as good as China’s Hong Kong team. Therefore, it is regarded as giving away children.

Considering the strength of the two teams, the fate of the two teams in this World Cup is also considered to be the same as that of the Chinese men's football team that participated in the World Cup for the first time in 02.

However, after the start of the game, it developed in the opposite direction to what people expected. New Zealand, which was obviously weaker, took the initiative, and even made Slovakia jittery in the first 30 minutes of the game.Although he failed to score a goal, he was very resolute in his tactical play, and the players on the field executed the head coach's tactics very well.Judging from the opening 30 minutes alone, New Zealand had already lashed out at everyone who underestimated them.

On the other hand, Slovakia, although the scene was unfavorable for a time, as the game progressed, it still showed a better ability and gradually took control of the game. The efforts of the Slovak team paid off in the 50th minute.In the 50th minute, after Sestak and Weiss cooperated on the right side, the former completed a wonderful pass. Witek in front of the goal easily inserted and headed the ball into the net.This goal created the history of Slovak football and was the first World Cup finals goal in the history of the country.If the 1-0 score is maintained until the end of the game, Slovakia, which is participating in the World Cup for the first time, will usher in a feast for its own football.

However, the New Zealanders do not want Slovakia to be exclusive to the United States. New Zealand, which is participating in the World Cup for the second time, obviously does not want to miss the opportunity to create its own football history.As Slovakia tried to control the pace of the game, Reed equalized with a goal of gold in stoppage time, helping New Zealand grab a point, which was also the first point in New Zealand's World Cup history.The two big teams that were not optimistic before the game were able to create the history of their respective countries in the game, which obviously exceeded people's expectations before the game.

In stark contrast, in the 02 World Cup, the Chinese men's football team, which participated for the first time, vowed before the game to "beat Costa Rica, draw with Turkey, and lose to Brazil" and "Score one goal, score one point, "Win a game" goal, but ended up losing all three battles, swallowing 9 bullets.It was also a belly trip, and New Zealand's performance made the Chinese national football team ashamed; it was also a beginner's teacher, and Slovakia's performance was enough to make the national football team feel ashamed.

It won't be long before another Huaxia Hong Kong team representing the Chinese will step onto the big stage of the World Cup as the first brother. Their first match opponent is also the Brazilian team. Huaxia fans are actually very worried. Will they return to the World Cup? It is worrying to repeat the old path of the last Chinese national football game, this is a death group!

Immediately, the eye-catching first game of the death group came into people's eyes, Portugal against Côte d'Ivoire.

The much-anticipated Ronaldo finally made his debut.Although the combined value of the Ivory Coast team is not as good as his alone; although, the current influence of Ronaldo in international football is not inferior to any top star including Messi.However, this battle still proves that football is a team sport, and the power of one person is ultimately limited.

Who is Ronaldo? The 2008 Golden Globe Award winner, the World Footballer of the Year winner, is the only top star in today's football who can compete with Li Yu and Messi in terms of limelight and status. In the 07-08 season, he scored 42 club goals throughout the year, so he was called "God", "nuclear weapon", "supernatural" and "extraterrestrial visitor". The British media even believed that "he is an existence that subverts the rules of football. All the logic of football doesn't apply to him."

But at least one rule worked for him.This is: football is a team sport, and one person's strength is limited after all, and it is impossible to always determine the outcome of the game.In the past season, Ronaldo played at the top level in Real Madrid, scoring 29 goals in 26 league games and 6 goals in 7 Champions League games.This kind of performance made the whole world exclaim again, and the Spaniard had to admit that this person is indeed worthy of the worth of 9400 million euros.

根据权威媒体《转会市场》的身价评估，科特迪瓦出战球员的身价，分别是门将巴里（200万欧元）、后卫德梅尔（500万）、大图雷（2000万）、佐科拉（1000万）、蒂安（300万）、埃布埃（700万）、亚亚-图雷（1700万）、蒂奥特（300万）、热尔维尼奥（900万）、丹达尼（300万）、卡劳（1400万）。而这些球员身价相加，不过也只是9300万而已！换句话说，科特迪瓦全队首发11人的身价之和，竟不及c罗一人！

But so what?High social status does not mean that you can win.In today's game, it's not that Ronaldo didn't work hard. He played almost with all his strength throughout the game.You can see him from the wing, he has 4 crosses; you can see him from the center, he has dribbled into the penalty area 4 times; he is also very hard on the pass, 47% of his passes are offensive passes; he is very Efforts are being made to compete for the top, and the success rate of header competitions has reached 75%.He even had 2 tackles, 1 foul, 3 steals, and ran for 2 free throws.However, in front of the overall well-organized defense of the Ivorian, in front of the opponent's dozen thick legs lying across the penalty area, as strong as Ronaldo, he can only threaten the opponent with three long-range shots, and then watch the ball hit the post Constantly sigh.

There is no need to blame Ronaldo.His hard work proves his fighting spirit. In the past, after his team was eliminated in the World Cup, he always shed tears of heroes because of disappointment and pain.There is no need to accuse Côte d'Ivoire of being conservative. In this football era, focusing on defense is the survival philosophy of every team. Don't you see that Brazil has also played European-style defense, and Brückner and Zeman are mad attacking coaches. Are you always bruised and swollen by underdogs?

Therefore, Ronaldo did not perform, Portugal did not win, the fault is not Ronaldo, the opponent is not to blame.The thing is, football is a holistic game, a team sport.The role of stars is certainly important, but to get on the court, the competition is the team, the whole, not the worth, let alone the fame.Queiroz can't condense many of Portugal's stars into an effective whole, so even if Ronaldo has strong martial arts, it is difficult to display them.

In the Champions League this past season, the same scene has also been staged.Messi is the new footballer and is considered the most powerful player in the "post-Ronaldo era".However, Messi has an embarrassing record. He led the team to face Mourinho 7 times in his career, and failed to score all 7 times.In fact, under Mourinho, there are not always stars who are more famous than Barcelona. It's just that Mourinho knows how to knead the whole and build a team to create such a miracle.

"Gazzetta dello Sport" said it well: "Football has already passed the era when one person decides everything. If Fontaine, Pele, and Beckenbauer were born in this era, then their legends will be greatly reduced!" It makes sense to take a closer look.

The World Cup in South Africa will be the final match of Portugal's "Golden Decade". Queiroz formulated the strategy of "the first match and the decisive battle" early on, but in the end he returned from a frustrating battle with Côte d'Ivoire. Ronaldo, who took over the captain's armband in 2007, once again had both hands In vain, is it possible that the "Golden Decade" will end in tragedy?

"Competition" was mixed before the game, "For Portugal, the facts are clear: we have the ability to go far in this World Cup, but before that we have to take the right step. Portugal has participated in the World Cup 5 times, 6 times in a row To participate in major competitions, winning the first game is the key to the team." Indeed, in the 2000 years since the European Cup in 10, Portugal has not missed any of the six major competitions (3 World Cups, 3 European Cups), and before 2000 Portugal only There are only 2 World Cup experience.

Portugal has won the European Cup runner-up and the World Cup runner-up in 10 years, and the "golden generation" has made great contributions. The "Golden Generation" is based on the two generations of "Youth Army" who won the World Youth Championship twice in 1989 and 1998. Figo, Rui Costa, Baia, João Pinto, Paulo Sosa, Kang Sicao, Pauletta, and Dominguez are star-studded.After becoming an army, the "golden generation" played in the European Cup for the first time in 1996, and lost to the Czech Republic in the quarter-finals. The failure to qualify for the World Cup in France in 1998 was a heavy blow to the "golden generation".The comeback "golden generation" was at its peak in the 2000 European Cup. The "death group" won consecutive victories against England, Romania and Germany to qualify, and lost to France in the semi-finals. This opened the "golden decade" in Portuguese football history!

The "Golden Generation" failed in the group stage of the 2002 World Cup. The Portuguese Football Association hired champion coach Scolari after learning from the painful experience. It is hoped that this move can cure the chronic disease that has been repeatedly questioned as "flashy".The Brazilian coach recruited talents from his hometown Deco in an eclectic manner, laying a minefield for Portugal's subsequent "Brazilization". The 2004 local World Cup was the last and brilliant "reporting performance" of the "golden generation". It won consecutive victories against Russia, Spain, England and In the Netherlands, it is a pity that the Greek "Turtle Football" came in second in the final. Rui Costa withdrew from the national team after the European Cup. The "Golden Generation" gradually disintegrated, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who shed heroic tears after the final, gradually grew For the leader.

In the World Cup in Germany, Figo led the team with 5 wins and 2 losses and then withdrew from the national team after finishing fourth. The "golden generation" withdrew from the stage of history. In the 2008 European Cup, Ronaldo led the team for the first time, and lost to the "German Chariot" in the quarter-finals, which was the worst result in three consecutive competitions. Ronaldo scored only one goal in the 4 games. The strange thing is that this goal against the Czech Republic on June 2008, 6 was the beginning of the Portuguese striker's "ball shortage". On June 11, against Côte d'Ivoire, Ronaldo only In February 6, he scored a penalty kick against Finland, which was the only goal in two years. The goals in the 15 World Cup qualifiers were like Ronaldo who chopped melons and vegetables. In the 2009 World Cup qualifiers, he failed to score in 2 games. He also missed the life-and-death match with Bosnia and Herzegovina due to injury. Therefore, there is a rumor in the market that "Portugal qualify, Ronaldo will eat." , The Real Madrid striker's leading ability has been questioned.

Although Portugal has an excellent record of 10 games against England (5 wins and 3 draws) and the Netherlands (2 wins and 3 draws) in the past 2 years, the two penalty kicks out of England in the 2004 European Cup and the 2006 World Cup almost made the British fans feel miserable, but everything is mutual. , Portugal has lost 10 games against Italy, France, and Greece in 10 years (1 draw and 9 losses), why?All three teams have a tight defensive system, and "Big Phil" and Queiroz have never been able to solve the old problem of incompetence in "tough battle".Compared with Scolari, Queiroz, who once commanded the "golden generation" and won two consecutive World Youth Championships, now over-dotes on Ronaldo, which has attracted criticism from fans, "We need a head coach who can treat children like parents, not Coaches like Queiroz who treat Ronaldo differently from other players."

Although Ronaldo has repeatedly talked about "team spirit", he ignored his teammates on the court and opened fire freely. The first free kick against Côte d'Ivoire was 40 meters away from the goal, but Ronaldo put on a standard advertising posture and hit the wall , A good offensive opportunity was wasted, and former French international Karembu hit the nail on the head, "Portugal's problem is that individualism is prominent. Ronaldo's last World Cup was because of his personal heroism that harmed himself."And off the court, scandals are endless, and the private helicopter "airborne" training camp has attracted criticism from the media, and Ronaldo has no honors in the World Youth Championship and the Olympics. How can the fans and the media recall the details of the former leader Figo!

The "golden generation" relied on team spirit to bring Portuguese football to glory for ten years. The "super golden generation" that was once talked about by the media only had the embarrassing situation of "Queiroz + Ronaldo + 22 people". Ronaldo can't support it In Portugal, Mourinho once satirized, "He can't win the world championship even at 100 kilometers per hour." This is a problem with Ronaldo, and it is also a problem with Queiroz.

On the other hand, Drogba, the number one star in Côte d'Ivoire, even though he failed to start, but in the World Cup opener against Portugal, Drogba, the number one star in Côte d'Ivoire, came off the bench. In addition to his competitive significance, his appearance was more reflected in the spiritual level.

In the 66th minute of the match against Portugal, the head coach who had no scoring skills waved the flag, and Drogba, the number one star in Côte d'Ivoire and even Africa, came off the bench. Although he was wearing a long-sleeved jersey, the protector on Drogba's right arm was still faintly visible.Drogba's biggest threat after coming off the bench came in stoppage time. At that time, he received a pass from his teammate and went to the front of the small penalty area. However, facing the goalkeeper, Warcraft did not choose to shoot but crossed the ball. As a result, there were no teammates in the middle. In response, the Ivorian fans in the stands felt extremely sorry.

According to statistics, after coming off the bench, Drogba made 1 shot and 5 passes, 2 of which were successful, and 2 headers.Although he failed to bring the team a victory, his appearance itself was already a miracle. Since he broke his arm in the warm-up match with Japan on June 6, Drogba has performed lightning in just 4 days after surgery. Come back, and judging from today's game, Drogba did not show any symptoms of discomfort. The unstoppable monster of the past is back. fortunate.Fox Sports Network praised: "Drogba returned successfully!" American Broadcasting Network also praised: "Although the game did not break the deadlock, Drogba still brought surprises."

In fact, if it was for his own health and career considerations, Drogba did not have to take such a risk to make a hasty appearance, but the sense of national honor in Warcraft's heart prompted him to come back impatiently. In his eyes, the interests of the team and the national honor are paramount. is far above personal interests.As early as after qualifying for the 2006 World Cup, Drogba led all the players to kneel in the locker room. He prayed for all parties involved in the crisis in Côte d'Ivoire to lay down their arms and restore peace.For an athlete, he is not only conscientious and responsible on the field, but also always concerned about the domestic economy and people's livelihood. Such a player is definitely worthy of people's eternal respect.

Speaking of this, people will naturally think of Manchester City center Adebayor, who is regarded as the successor of Drogba and is known as the "little monster". Some time ago, the Togo striker officially announced his withdrawal from the national team. The terrorist attack left him with lingering fears.For the Togo national team, Adebayor's withdrawal not only greatly reduced the team's strength, but more importantly, it lost its pillar and lost its spiritual leader. In the face of disaster, when the Togo national team urgently needs someone to stand up However, the number one star in the team chose to escape in a panic. If it were Drogba, I believe he would never do such a thing.

Drogba's miraculous debut is also reminiscent of another great star - German football emperor Beckenbauer. In the semi-finals of the 1970 World Cup, Beckenbauer dislocated his shoulder after colliding with an opponent. At that time, the German team had run out of substitutions, and the score was still 0-1 behind, so Beckenbauer refused to leave the field and continue the game. At that time, he just used splints and bandages to fix his right arm, which became the most classic in the history of the World Cup. One scene, and Drogba's injured appearance today is equally touching. This kind of spirit is not only lacking in the lax African teams, but also urgently needed by the poverty-stricken and war-torn African continent.

In any case, the draw between the two teams is good news for the Huaxia Hong Kong team, and it will be Huaxia Hong Kong's turn to play...
