Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior

Portugal defeated Persia 2-0 in Saransk and accumulated nine points from three consecutive group wins, becoming the most dazzling team since the beginning of this World Cup.

As the final rankings of the two groups A and B have settled, so has the matchup situation.

Portugal, which got B1, fell into the bottom half and competed with the A2 host country for a ticket to advance to the quarterfinals of the World Cup.

B2 Spain falls into the top half and will face A1 Uruguay in the 8/1 finals.

At ten o'clock the next morning, the Portuguese team flew to Moscow and will play again at the Luzhniki Stadium.

Upon arriving at Moscow International Airport, Portugal, which had won three consecutive games in the group, received significantly less welcome. Some local fans from the fighting countries even booed harshly, causing trouble for the visiting Portuguese players.

After all, the next person to face in the 1/8 finals is the host country.

No matter how much local fans like a foreign player, they will be their enemies in a war.

They want to bring a good home atmosphere to their team as much as possible, so they will also create difficulties for Portugal if conditions permit.

Various private fan organizations spontaneously launched extra measures for the Portuguese team to prepare for the match.

In this regard, Portuguese players complained endlessly.

Cristiano Ronaldo and other players also used social platforms to angrily criticize the behavior of the fans of the Warring States.

The organizers and some of the national players from the fighting countries still have a sense of responsibility and call on radical fans to be hospitable hosts and not to behave in a manner that is disgraceful or embarrassing to the country.

It must be said that such official actions have had some effect.

The interference received by Portuguese players preparing for the game has dropped significantly.

The final rounds of group matches for several other groups are taking place one after another.

The two group matches of Group C were relatively close to each other. France, which qualified early, and Sweden, which drew in the last round, had no achievements. The score was 0:0 throughout the game.

Except for Croatia, all three teams in Group D are likely to become the second team to advance.

As a result, Argentina became the lucky one, relying on Rojo's 86th-minute winner to defeat Nigeria with difficulty 2:1.

Although he advanced to the top 1 as second in the group, his opponent in the 8/ finals was France, the favorite to win the championship.

The value of a backup lineup that is not selected for the 23-man roster can be ranked in the top ten teams.

It is known as the second favorite team to win the championship after Portugal.

The last round of group matches of the EF group and GH group were completed respectively, and all the teams that advanced to the top 16 were announced.

Among them, Group F suffered a shocking upset.

South Korea, which was eliminated early, faced the defending champion Germany, which had to win to qualify. Everyone knew that this was a contest with a huge disparity in strength. Germany could win as long as it performed normally.

result……

Within 90 minutes of regular time, Germany was unable to knock on the door of South Korea led by Son Heung-min, and even scored two goals in stoppage time.

In the end, the defending champion lost to South Korea 0:2, and both he and his opponent bought air tickets to go home.

There was no upset in Group H, but a very interesting historical situation occurred.

Sakura Country gained four points with a win and a draw in the first two games. A draw in the last game would qualify them. Unexpectedly, they lost 0:1 to Poland, who were eliminated early.

同组的哥伦比亚2胜1负积六分小组第一出线，前两轮积四分最后一轮同样打平出线的塞内加尔输给了哥伦比亚，跟樱花国都是1胜1平1负积四分。

As a result, various calculations were started.

The results are interesting.

The two teams' goal difference, number of goals scored, number of goals conceded, and the relationship between wins and losses are all the same.

In this context, it is time to enter the final deduction of red and yellow cards.

In the end, Sakura Country defeated Senegal and became second in Group H by virtue of receiving fewer yellow cards. Senegal was unfortunately eliminated.

The top two teams in the eight groups of the Fighting Nations World Cup qualify, and the entire event is divided into upper and lower halves.

The first half of the 1/8 finals matchups: Uruguay VS Spain, France VS Argentina, Brazil VS Mexico, Belgium VS Sakura Country.

The 1/8 finals in the second half are: Portugal VS Fighting Countries, Croatia VS Denmark, Sweden VS Switzerland, Colombia VS England.

The first fighting countries World Cup 1/8 finals are C1 France and F2 Argentina.

The 1/8 finals between Portugal and the Fighting Countries were held early the next day, so the 1/8 finals between France and Argentina went to the Luzhniki Stadium as usual to adapt to the venue for the last time before the game.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Portuguese team's bus arrived at the Luzhniki Stadium.

A large number of local Fighting Nation fans and a small number of Portuguese fans have gathered in the outer square.

They release their energy under the watchful eyes of patrol officers and security guards.

The harsh boos spread to the entire outer square of the stadium.

Obviously, this is a disincentive given by Fighting Nation fans.

Each one has a body as strong as a bear and keeps shouting at the Portuguese players in the bus.

Most of the fans spoke Russian. Except for Martin who could hear clearly, it was basically difficult for other players to understand.

However, these fans showed a cannibalistic look, which worried many Portuguese players.

Do it if you don't accept it, which is the tradition of the fighting nation.

The bus stopped at the designated location. Head coach Santos took captain Ronaldo to attend the regular pre-match press conference. The assistant coach and other players entered the stadium directly to prepare for the last adaptation to the venue before the game.

Considering that the opponent is the host country, the Portuguese team's training mainly revolves around warm-up and simple tactics such as passing from the bottom, setting up the wing, and setting up long-range shots, in order to avoid the leakage of tactical routines.

In the new era of professional football games, various penetrations are emerging one after another.

5pm local time.

Kazan Arena.

France VS Argentina's 1/8 finals started first.

After returning to the hotel, Ronaldo and his teammates organized the whole team to go to the multimedia classroom to watch the live broadcast of the game and build a small team.

"What do you think of the game?"

Martin turned to look at Ronaldo who asked the question.

"If nothing else happens, the French team will resolve the battle within ninety minutes."

Martin was deeply impressed by this game.

"How many goals do you think France will win?"

Ronaldo became interested and asked again.

"There is a high probability that we will only win by one goal, and both sides will score a lot of goals."

Hearing this, Fei B asked curiously: "Can you be more specific?"

Martin rolled his eyes angrily: "Do you think I'm a prophet?"

"Hahaha……"

The Portuguese players in the multimedia room burst into good-natured laughter.

Only 13 minutes into the game, French supernova Mbappe started to surge from the middle and backcourt, throwing away three defensive players. When he broke into the right rib of the penalty area, he was pushed down by Rojo. The referee on duty decisively awarded a penalty kick.

"Kylian Mbappe is so fast!"

Pepe is a central defender and is very old, so he is particularly afraid of such unreasonable blows.

"I feel like he's going to have another good season."

Martin commented.

He still remembers Mbappe's performance in this World Cup, especially the knockout match against Argentina.
