Preview of the World Cup: Looking at tomorrow s battle from the 2018 World Cup, the road to the strong begins with a single step

The mystery of victory or defeat on the football field will always attract countless lovers to be crazy about it. As an analyst, I know the subtle tactical games behind each game and the subtle changes in the players' psychology.

Tomorrow, the World Cup qualifiers will be rekindled. As a football event analyst, I always think history is the best teacher. Looking back at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, there are many classic moments worth pondering before the World Cup.

The World Cup ended with the French team winning the championship. With their excellent defensive counterattack tactics and youthful vitality, they won the Hercules Cup for the second time.

The French team's return to the king

The average age of the French team in 2018 was only 26 years old, and it is the second youngest team in the entire competition. With their united team spirit and quick counterattack tactics, they successfully broke the problem of having sex in the competitions and losing links at critical moments in the past.

The French team trained by Deschamps can be said to be perfect in rapid counterattack and set pieces. Team spirit is always the most precious asset on the football field, and personal heroism is often difficult to go far.

Russia's Opening Game Performance

In the opening game of the 2018 World Cup, the host Russia faced Saudi Arabia. Although the two teams are regarded as the weakest team in the group, the host has obvious advantages.

The hosts of previous World Cups have achieved 15 wins and 6 draws, with a winning rate of nearly 70%. Such data is enough to prove the importance of home court advantage in football games.

The Russian team had 28-year-old striker Smolov as the team's frontcourt fulcrum, and he maintained a very high goal rate. In the midfield, Zagoyev assumed the heavy responsibility of the entire team's offense.

German team's unexpected defeat

In the 2018 World Cup group stage, the German team performed disappointingly. Even before the match against the South Korean team, the analysis pointed out that "no matter how bad the German team is, there is still one victory in the group stage, while the South Korean team loses two consecutive losses."

However, the result was that the German team lost 0-2 to South Korea and was eliminated. This tells us that there is no absolute difference between strength and weakness on the football field, and tactical discipline and teamwork are often more important than paper strength.

The German team was facing a red card suspension at that time, which undoubtedly affected the team's defensive stability. In competitions, players' discipline issues often determine how far a team can go.

Cross Ronaldo's turn of the tide

In the 2018 World Cup, Ronaldo scored a hat-trick against Spain, turning the tide and leading Portugal to avoid defeat. He broke the curse of scoring only 1 goal in each World Cup, and he was the number one player in the field.

However, football is a team sport after all, and Portugal has a strong momentum under the leadership of Ronaldo. If you want to go further, other players must be more brave enough to take responsibility. The value of a star lies not only in his personal performance, but also in whether he can stimulate the overall combat effectiveness of the team. This is also a key issue that all teams need to think about in the World Cup qualifiers.

Victory is more important than beauty

Although the French team in 2018 had super geniuses such as Griezmann, Mbappe, Dembele, etc., under the creation of Deschamps, the team is based on defense as the foundation for their survival.

The final statistics of many games show that they did not take the initiative on the field, and the whole process is hard to be wonderful. But such a pragmatic attitude, although it has attracted some criticism for the French team, recreates the classic ending 20 years ago. The ultimate goal of a football match is to win, not simply pursue the beauty of the scene. A pragmatic attitude is often the most effective strategy in the competition.

Tomorrow's World Cup qualifiers, the road to the strong will not be smooth. Just as in the 2018 World Cup, Germany, Brazil, Argentina and other favorites failed to get a good start in the first round, while Mexico, Japan and Senegal defeated their opponents who were stronger than themselves.

There is no absolute difference between strength and weakness on the football field. Only teams with more preparation, more firm will and more appropriate tactics can have the last laugh. For every team that is determined to advance to the World Cup, tomorrow's game is not the end, but the starting point of a new journey.

The victory or defeat on the green field often depends on those invisible factors: the team's cohesion, tactical execution, and the psychological quality of the players. The success of the French team in the 2018 World Cup was not accidental, but an inevitable result of the pragmatic spirit of defense first and effectiveness first.

Tomorrow's World Cup qualifiers, it depends on who can truly understand: football is a sport of 11 people, and it is difficult to go far with the flash of individual stars alone. Team spirit, tactical discipline, and pragmatic attitude are the cornerstones for victory.
