Chapter 460 Peru's weakness is also obvious!
莫斯科时间6月24日23点，随着H组哥伦比亚3-0完胜波兰，本届世界杯小组赛第二轮全部结束。

After two rounds of group matches, there are currently 5 teams that have qualified ahead of schedule, namely Russia, Uruguay, Croatia, Belgium and England.

The eliminated teams are Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Costa Rica, Panama, Tunisia and Poland.

This round of the group stage can be said to be a series of upsets.

Especially the match between Croatia and Argentina can be said to be earth-shattering.

In addition, the match between Germany and Sweden, the last World Cup champion, was almost upset.

Fortunately, Kroos completed self-salvation at the last moment, personally scored a beautiful free kick, overtook the score and helped Germany beat Sweden 2-1, temporarily escaping the curse of being eliminated from the last championship group.

These upsets also exposed the champions and runners-up teams of the last World Cup, as well as those favorites to win the championship, are not as strong as the media described.

For example, France, with an all-star lineup, was tied by Peru, and Spain, also not as strong as it appears on paper, also played extremely difficult against Iran.

The next day, Moscow time, at 17:[-], the third round of the group kicked off quickly.

In Group A, the two games between Saudi Arabia and Egypt, Russia and Uruguay started at the same time.

Saudi Arabia and Egypt have been eliminated, and the two teams in this game are purely fighting for national honor.

The match between Russia and Uruguay, which both advanced ahead of schedule, may be to avoid the upper half of the division, which may be full of strong teams. If there are two teams, one person will be sent off by a red card early.

So Uruguay's Suarez and Cavani started a happy attack mode. At the same time, Cavanica also staged a happy football for the fans. In the end, Uruguay defeated Russia 3-0.

It also made Uruguay the first team to win all three group matches without conceding a goal since Argentina in the 1998 World Cup.

After the battle in Group A, four hours later, the two matches between Iran, Portugal, Spain and Morocco in Group B were frightening.

After watching these two games, many fans in China called out for a long time.

Although Spain and Portugal are tied for the top spot in Group B with 4 points, as long as they draw with Morocco and Iran, they will be able to advance.

But these two games still shocked the fans of both sides into a cold sweat.

In the game between Spain and Morocco, Spain fell behind and tied twice.

One of the two conceded goals was that Ramos did not go to pick up Iniesta's return and sent Monaco a single shot, and the other was a defender's marking error and sent Monaco a close-range header.

If Vazquez's heel goal hadn't been judged valid by var in stoppage time, and Monaco was tied 2-2, then Spain would probably have to return home.

The game between Portugal with 4 points and Iran with 3 points was even more exciting, and the suspense of the game was not revealed until the last second.

The process of this game can be described as thrilling.

Although Portugal took control of the situation at the beginning of the game, Portugal with Ronaldo has always been difficult to break through the iron-blooded defense of the Persians.

It wasn't until the 44th minute of the game that the 35-year-old veteran Quaresma's long-range shot from the outside of his instep unexpectedly broke through Iran's goal.

In the second half, C Robben, who was stared at by Iran for doing nothing, had a chance to end the suspense of the game.

It's a pity that he missed the penalty kick that was changed by VAR, which also caused Portugal to almost lose to Iran in stoppage time in the second half.

Within a few minutes of stoppage time, Iran not only equalized the score with a penalty kick, but even scored a one-handed goal in the penalty area.

It's a pity that Iran didn't grasp it, and the single-handed ball hit the side net.

In the end, the two sides drew 1-1, and although Iran was eliminated, it also let the whole world see what the Persians' iron-blooded defense is.

……

On June 6, at 26:21 BJ time.

There is still an hour before the last group match between China and Peru, but Sports Channel [-] has opened the live broadcast in advance.

At the same time, countless families have gathered in front of the TV, or gathered with friends and plunged into the bar with a strong atmosphere of watching the game.

According to the ratings forecast announced by CCTV before the game, tonight’s game, which will determine whether the Chinese team can create a historic moment again, may reach the highest ratings ever in China, and the number of people watching this game may exceed 8 million. This shows the influence of the World Cup.

On the live broadcast, there are always overhead shots, and it is clearly visible that fans from various countries are constantly gathering around the Fisht Olympic Stadium located in the center of the Olympic Park in Sochi, Russia.

Not long after, the live broadcast screen suddenly jumped, and the red bus of the Chinese team parked in front of the hotel gate appeared, followed by Mo Yang, who was wearing the red national team uniform, also appeared in the camera.

"What you are watching now is the live broadcast of the World Cup match brought to you by the fifth sports channel of CCTV. We can now see that the players have boarded the car and headed to the Fisht Olympic Stadium."

For today's game between China and Peru, CCTV's on-site commentary lineup is luxurious.

He Wei, Zhang Lu, Zhan Jun, and Fan Zhiyi will participate in the live broadcast commentary of the game on the Chinese commentary seat in the blue commentary stand area.

With the continuous influx of fans, Fisht Stadium has become more and more noisy.

At the same time, the four of He Wei also felt the scorching atmosphere of the World Cup again.

Behind the commentary seat, he fixed the camera in front of the camera. At this time, He Wei and Zhang Lu were talking loudly. Everyone was shouting at the top of their voices, otherwise they would not be able to hear clearly.

"Zhang Zhi, in the previous two games, Lippi adopted a relatively conservative defensive counterattack tactics, which brought us an excellent record of one win and one loss. Do you think Lippi will continue to stick to the defensive counterattack in this game? ?”

"Hey!" Zhang Hehe laughed, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Lippi said in the interview before the game that he would continue to use anti-reverse tactics, but I don't think it's that simple. Lippi's nickname But Silver Fox!"

"Ha ha……"

Zhan Jun and Fan Zhiyi next to him heard Zhang Lu's words, and they immediately shook their heads with laughter.

"Director Zhan, come and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of us and Peru for the fans!" He Wei shouted at Zhan Jun again.

"Okay! Hello everyone, I'm Zhan Jun!"

"As for the Peruvian team, they entered the World Cup again after 36 years. Like us, everyone is actually a newcomer to the World Cup."

"But this team has not been a weak team in the Americas in recent years. Today's Peru plays very smoothly and concisely on the offensive end. The defense is tough, and the defensive counterattack effect is also good. They often use the ball on the ground to break the opponent's defense! "

"But their weaknesses are also very obvious, such as their striker!"

"Peru's two main forwards, Farfan and Guerrero, are 33 years old and the other is 34 years old this year. They are both troubled by age. Judging from the first two rounds of group matches, the state of these two veterans is very average."

"This is the reason why Peru's offense played very gorgeously in the first two rounds but only scored one goal. The striker was weak!"

"On the defensive line, they also face the problem of aging players. Peru's absolute main central defender Rodriguez is 33 years old this year, and his competitive state has declined significantly."

"Peru's midfield attack group may be their most stable link..."

Amid the voices of He Wei and others, the game time came quietly.
