Football: The strongest post-zero generation

Chapter 425: Leaking the ‘secret’

Argentina, which defeated England in the first round, failed to defeat Iceland in the second round, which was equivalent to giving up the initiative.

England has won two consecutive games in the group, and the main players will definitely be rested in the final round of the group stage. Then Iceland, which still has two more goal differences, is very likely to win in an upset and advance with its goal difference advantage.

Of course, Argentina can qualify if they defeat Nigeria, but only if England doesn't give in.

The possibility of England letting go is either great or small. First of all, England and Argentina are feuding teams in the World Cup. It is not ruled out that Iceland, which is also in Europe, will be defeated by Argentina.

The low chance is due to England's upset loss to Iceland in the 1/8 finals of the European Cup two years ago. This is unacceptable to England who aspires to win the championship. This World Cup group stage encounter will definitely seek revenge. .

Considering this situation, the Argentine media began to favor England, hoping that they could go all out in the final round upholding the rules of fair play and praise English players, especially Li Qing.

It is said that Li Qing is the strongest player in the world today. Messi and Ronaldo are all behind him. In order to win the golden boot, he must play in the third round of the group stage.

England head coach Southgate is also the target of praise from the Argentine media, to the point of making the world go crazy.

The entire England team arrived in Kaliningrad and felt very speechless about the reports from the Argentine media, but...it felt really good to be praised by the archrival media for the first time.

Li Qing was the most speechless, not because he was speechless about the media reports, but because both Messi and Aguero sent text messages to express their condolences.

Normally there is very little contact. I am asking questions at this time. Isn’t it just for England to defeat Iceland in the last round...

The second round of the World Cup group stage continues. Costa Rica, which played a super dark horse in the last World Cup, failed to repay its debt four years ago. After losing to Serbia 0:1 in the first round, they lost to Brazil 0:2 in the second round. , the group lost two consecutive games and was eliminated early.

However, Costa Rica lost this game unjustly. To be precise, they lost due to lack of concentration. At the end of 90 minutes of regular time, it was still 0:0. As a result, Coutinho and Neymar scored consecutively in injury time...

The two focus games of Group F attracted the attention of the world. Germany, which lost in the first round, defeated Sweden 2:1 with Toni Kroos' goal in the 95th minute, retaining the hope of promotion and also letting the lottery players who bought the German team out. feel disappointed.

Seeing this, Li Qing was a little ready to make a move. The last round of the game between Germany and South Korea was still fresh in his memory.

South Korea defeated Germany 2-0 with two goals in stoppage time, sending Germany out and creating the biggest upset of this World Cup.

According to the odds given by Williams, the odds are 118 times. Because the two goals came in stoppage time, the odds will be higher after the first half.

Li Qing almost didn't think about it this time. He still refused to buy football. Firstly, he was not short of money. Secondly, there was no need to buy it, so as not to make him embarrassed.

However, he wanted to test whether the World Cup would undergo subtle changes due to his intervention, so he posted a personal status on the personal account of Qiaoqiudi: It is too difficult for Germany to win, and I personally feel that there is a possibility of missing the group qualifying, by the way... When I went to bed last night, I seemed to dream about Germany losing an upset 0:2 to South Korea. Dear friends, would you like to follow my dream and buy a game? The villa is close to the sea...

After a while, there were a lot of comments from fans.

"Brother, you'd better tell me the last few goals you scored in the next game. It's more reliable this way!"

"Support upstairs! Brother Li Qing, I am Yu Jiefeng, can you tell me how many goals you will score in the next game? Or how many goals can you score in this World Cup?"

"Germany lost to South Korea by two goals? It was indeed a dream..."

"Idols' dreams are indeed different, I have decided! I was planning to buy Germany 2-0, but I decided to do the opposite this time. What if the villa is close to the sea?"

"It's better to play it safe and buy South Korea 1:0 Germany."

The comments from fans were all kinds of weird. Li Qing randomly selected a few replies and then put down his phone and prepared to take a rest.

Poland, which qualified for the World Cup again after 12 years, lost to Senegal in the first round and lost 0:3 to Colombia in the second round. This means that the Polish team led by Lewandowski was eliminated early...

There were no surprises in the two games of Group G. Croatia and Belgium both won and qualified together, but whoever qualified first in the group had to wait until the end of the last round.

The first two rounds of the group stage have come to an end. In addition to Russia, France, England, Belgium and Croatia qualifying in advance, the other 11 qualifying places will not be announced until the end of the third round.

In order to prevent betting companies from manipulating the game, FIFA kicked off the final round of the same group at the same time.

At 6 pm local time in Russia on June 25, the two Group A third-round matches of Russia VS Uruguay and Saudi Arabia VS Egypt kicked off at the same time. Uruguay relied on Suarez, Cavani and Cheryshev's own goal 3: Defeated Russia 0 and ranked first in the group with 7 points from 3 games, 2 wins and 1 draw.

Although Egypt, led by Salah, finally reversed Saudi Arabia 3:2, they were eventually eliminated by two points.

The two group matches of Group B were held at the same time at 9 o'clock in the evening. The results of the match between Spain and Portugal, the brothers of the Iberian Peninsula, were quite funny. Portugal drew with Iran 1:1, while Spain drew with Morocco 2:2. There is a situation where the two teams have five points and a goal difference.

With the same points and goal difference, Spain ranked first in the group with one more goal, and Portugal, led by Ronaldo, ranked second.

The third round of group matches between England and Iceland kicks off at 9pm the next day, followed by two group matches in Group C.

Denmark and France played a tacit match. After 90 minutes, no one scored a goal and they qualified together.

According to the schedule of the 1/8 finals, C1 will play D2 and C2 will play D1. Compared with France, Denmark is definitely better at playing. England, who is first in the group, is definitely more willing to play Denmark, so in the final round of the group stage The personnel arrangement is semi-main force.

Argentine coach Sampaoli, who got England's starting lineup, sighed because Li Qing did not appear in the starting lineup, but for him, the first thing to solve is to defeat Nigeria, otherwise it will not matter whether England draws or wins. usefulness.

Compared to Sampaoli's depression, Iceland coach Hallgrimsson is excited. England without Li Qing is nothing to fear for him!

Historic entry into the World Cup, then...historic group qualifying should also come, right?

Unfortunately, at the end of the first half, the two sides ended in a draw, and Argentina led Nigeria 1:0 with Messi's goal. This means that if the two games end according to the current score, Argentina will advance to the knockout rounds as second in the group!
