In this non-big summer, the Confederations Cup is undoubtedly the most attractive game.

In the past, the habits of different continents were not uniform. For example, the African Cup is different from other continental cups. They are held every two years, and the game time is in February. The Asian qualifiers often do not meet the requirements of FIFA. On the scheduled match day, games like the top ten games are often played within two months...

Of course, this will not cause any problems when they are doing their own things. However, as football exchanges between continents become more and more close, and more and more players from other continents play in Europe and South America, there will be some problems with this competition system, such as The Africa Cup of Nations Asian Cup and the European Cup collided in the same year, and these weak cups received little attention. Another example is that there are Asian players playing in Europe, and then they have to leave for a few months to play in the Asian qualifiers. Of course, the club will be unhappy, and it will also affect the development of other teams. When the African Cup begins, African players who play in Europe will return to their home countries to compete, and that time happens to be when the first round of the Champions League knockout round begins... …

In the long run, this will cause huge troubles.

In fact, for a long time, international football has been in such a chaotic situation, including the Confederations Cup and the Club World Cup. These newly formed competitions have been opposed by many people.

And in constant exploration, the current game mode came into being.

World Cup qualifiers and cup qualifiers on all continents are held on FIFA match days.

The World Cup, European Cup, Confederations Cup and cups on all continents are held every four years. In the first year of the World Cup, the second year is the America’s Cup, Central America and the Caribbean Gold Cup, the Asian Cup, and the Ocean Cup. The third year is the European Cup, and the fourth year is the Confederations Cup and the Africa Cup of Nations.

In this way, the competition can be unified to a greater extent. The only problem now is the African Cup. Although the African Cup has been changed to every four years, the African Football Association still insists on the traditional February. One session will be changed to the past, and it will be held in the same summer as the Asian Cup and other cup games.

In this way, there are major games to watch every summer, and the year before the World Cup, there is only the Confederations Cup, which can be regarded as keeping some suspense before the World Cup, which can better enhance the attractiveness of the World Cup.

A mature competition system also takes time to slowly establish.

For Chinese fans, the Confederations Cup in the past was nothing more than watching the excitement, and they didn't value this game, but this year is different.

The outstanding performance of the Chinese team in the Confederations Cup filled them with confidence and enthusiasm!

The Chinese team played against Belgium, which is now ranked number one in the world.

Originally, the World Cup defending champion Spain ranked first in points. However, after failing to enter the semi-finals in the European Cup, Spain's points were surpassed by the champion Belgium. If Belgium can still win the Confederations Cup, then within a short time, I am afraid that no team can surpass Belgium in points.

Now the Chinese team is not bad in points. The FIFA points ranking is No. 20 and 20th. This is also one of the biggest achievements of the Chinese team in the past two years-they were originally ranked outside the [-]th place, but they almost fell to [-]th. However, after winning the Asian Cup and the winning streak in the top [-], their points rocketed to No. Big cut.

The ranking of FIFA points is important if you say it is important, and it doesn’t matter if you say it is not important-it is not important because it seems to be meaningless, but when you participate in a competition, points are very important, because it determines who you are Grade team...

In the Confederations Cup, the Chinese team can only be regarded as the fourth-tier team, but with their current momentum, they may squeeze into the second-tier team in the World Cup. the better.

"The match between the Chinese team and Belgium is about to start... Now the Chinese team's FIFA ranking is No. 20, which has created a record for Chinese football in the ranking, while the opponent Belgium is ranked first! In this way The gap seems to be a gap, but in terms of the performance of the Chinese team, they will not be much worse than Belgium...Although Belgium has won three consecutive victories in the group stage, while the Chinese team only won one and two draws, but from the game From the perspective of the gold content, the opponents the Chinese team encountered will be much stronger. Under such circumstances, the Chinese team can still break out of a death group, which has proved our strength! I think, for this game , all we need to do is enjoy, don't be impatient, just wait quietly for the game to end..."

The commentator of CCTV sighed, and then he reported the starting lineups of both sides.

"The Chinese team can be said to have come up with their strongest lineup this time. In the last round of the game, they returned to the old road of [-], and now, it has become [-]... Goalkeeper Lu Yuanlong, central defender It's the moving mountain combination, Jin Shucheng and Mu Qing, the cooperation between the two of them really needs to be tacit. The two full backs have been replaced, and Meng Zhaohui and Liu Jian have appeared in the starting lineup. It seems that Gao Yuan values ​​​​the right side. After all, the offensive pressure brought by the opponent's left may not be too great. In the midfield, Zhong Bo and Shen Wei partnered as a double midfielder, Yu Yingrui was in front of them, and Bu Qingyun, Zhu Yucheng and Su Yuze formed the forward Trident! Like the Chinese team, all the main players of Belgium came to the Confederations Cup this time. They did not send a second team. It seems that they want to create a peak in the history of the team. The next World Cup will also be The object they are pursuing! The goalkeeper is Coutu from Chelsea. Among the four defenders, the two central defenders are Verman and Wilhelm. The two wings are Alder from Tottenham and Moore from Paris. The midfielders Gaiman and Nathan Ying is at the back, with Dedingdin and Haza in the frontcourt, and Bent and Luka as strike partners. This is a very strong main lineup. Eight main players are from the top Premier League teams, and the other three main players are all Playing for the top giants, they have a powerful center forward, an excellent attacking midfielder, an all-round defensive midfielder, a strong defense line, and a world-class goalkeeper... To win the European Cup, they It's definitely not because of luck, but because they already have the strength to win the championship!"

The more Belgium's starting roster is reported, the more uncertain the commentator feels. On the surface, Belgium does not seem to be a top team, but if you read their main lineup casually, you will know how many stars they have...

Sitting on the bench, there are also many main players from the five major leagues. Such a luxurious lineup can only be possessed by top teams.

Moreover, such a lineup has high gold content. Hazard is the absolute core of Chelsea's attack. The two strikers are both physically strong and all-round black forwards. The core is a stable main force. De Ding Ding's position in Manchester City is becoming more and more important, and the frontcourt is simply unbelievably luxurious.

The problem that Dedingdin and Haza could not coexist before has become easier. Haza plays a free agent in the frontcourt, with a very high degree of freedom. Dedingding is responsible for the assault and organization of the midfield, and the protection of his teammates behind him. Belgium has a sharp offense and a solid defense. There are always stars who can shine when they can't start the game. In the knockout round of the European Cup, they won the championship [-]-[-] all the way, creating a small miracle.

With a disturbed mood, the commentator watched the players from both sides come out, watched the players from both sides line up, and watched the players from both sides shake hands...

The attention of the Belgian players is basically on Bu Qingyun-they have eight main players playing in the Premier League, so they are naturally aware of Bu Qingyun's strength. Last season, Bu Qingyun had an extremely outstanding performance in the Premier League. Suppressing all the tyrants, whether it is Haza's Chelsea, Deding Ding's Manchester City or Gaiman's Manchester United, they are all under the pressure of Liverpool led by Bu Qingyun. For the Belgian players who are the new European champions, it is simply It's an unbearable thing.

Of course they knew that the Chinese team did not have only one Bu Qingyun. After all, in the previous group matches, other Chinese players had shown excellent performance, but they still valued Bu Qingyun the most.

Haza is obviously very dissatisfied with his rise to the top. Last season, only Chelsea drew with Liverpool in both games. They did not fall behind in head-to-head matches, but they did not grab points against other teams as much as Liverpool did. It's just crazy. Under such circumstances, of course Haza wants to compete with Bu Qingyun in the Confederations Cup, although he also knows that this is quite a bullying thing.

Manchester City where De Ding Ding is located and Manchester United where Gaiman is located have both lost to Liverpool, and their light in the game has also been covered by Bu Qingyun, especially Gaiman, Bu Qingyun can have an extremely good performance against Manchester United every time, He is also a full-time player defending Bu Qingyun, so it can be said that Bu Qingyun makes him feel ashamed every time...

"It won't be so easy for you now!" Gaiman thought in his heart.

As for the other Belgian players, those who played in the Premier League have basically suffered from Liverpool. Other players are influenced by these people, so they naturally have no good looks towards Bu Qingyun.

However, Bu Qingyun was already used to this kind of treatment. With a smile on his face, he shook hands with the opposing players one by one, and after fulfilling his duties as captain, he returned to his own half.

"The first time I played against a really strong team that played at full strength, it was still in the knockout round... Are you guys excited?"

Bu Qingyun said to the Chinese players who came up.

"You are so perverted, we all feel nervous." Zhu Yucheng replied.

The other players laughed and reached out to Bu Qingyun at the same time.

"come on, come on, come on!"
