While "Bayonet" was selling like hotcakes after its release, the fiery World Cup in Germany also officially kicked off.

On June 9, at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, the opening match of the first round of the World Cup group stage, Germany's match against Costa Rica officially started.

By the way, after Xiao Yu stole the appearance of the Allianz Arena in his previous life, the Germans quickly selected another design. Although it was not as good as the Allianz Stadium in his previous life, it was still beautiful. .

In the opening game of the World Cup held at the Allianz Arena, Philipp Lahm, the only German star in the Red Rebels, started for the German team. Lahm, who served as left back, performed very well in this game. ”, only 5 minutes into the game, during a forward assist, he suddenly crossed into the penalty area from the wing, and used his excellent personal skills to knock down the Costa Rican player Fonseca, and finally** * made a curve ball, which hit the back post and went into the net.

This is Lahm's first goal in the World Cup, and also the first goal in this World Cup. It is the 1917th goal in the history of the World Cup.

After that, the two sides played very openly. In the 12th minute, Costa Rica entered the penalty area from the right side of the German team and pushed and shot into the lower left corner to equalize the score.

But in 5 minutes, Schneider knocked back at the front of the penalty area. Ram advanced and dribbled the ball into the penalty area. He passed the ball to the middle. Klose rushed over and shoveled the ball into the net 4 meters in front of the goal. Once again, he scored The score exceeded, 2:1!

After that, both sides had their own offense and defense. The German team did not make any adjustments in the second half. In the 61st minute, it was Ram who kicked the ball from the left again. Klose rushed out from 8 meters in front of the goal and scored, 3:1!

Afterwards, Costa Rica got another goal back, but in the 88th minute, Lahm organized from the left and passed Schweinsteiger diagonally. The latter knocked across from the left and Frings hit the volley in front of the goal. , 4:2!

After this game, Lahm relied on his outstanding performance on the left to overpower Klose, who scored two goals, and was voted the best player of the German team, especially for his performance on the left. The almost unrivaled performance on the left wing is even more frightening to opponents.

After the game, the Red Rebel players immediately sent a message of congratulations to Lahm, congratulating him on scoring the first goal of this World Cup and becoming the first in this World Cup. Man of the match.

Xiao Yu watched the game live accompanied by Mourinho, Walsh, Mark David and others, and personally congratulated Lahm immediately after the game. The latter seemed very excited. He said that after receiving help from the laboratory, his condition has been adjusted very well. He hopes to help the German team go further in this World Cup and strive to win the championship.

With his outstanding performance in the opening game, Ram has become the first star to become famous in this World Cup. As long as he continues to maintain the state of this game in the following games, I believe he will continue to do so. With this World Cup, he has become worth a hundred times.

On the second day of the opening game, England played against Paraguay. This was another game that Red Rebel fans paid great attention to.

In this game, Eriksen once again showed his preference for the Red Rebel fans. Although Beckham had just returned from injury, Eriksen couldn't wait to let him start. As a result, the England captain lived up to expectations. He led his teammates to a 3-0 victory over Paraguay. At the same time, this game was praised by many professional football commentators as the smartest game played by England in the history of the World Cup.

Almost from start to finish, England controlled the tempo on the field, and the players were no longer the same players as before.

They were running around like headless flies, but under the central axis of the Red Rebels of Beckham, Terry and Curtis, they firmly controlled the rhythm of the field, especially in the After Michael Johnson came on as a substitute in the second half, England won two games in a row.

Although there was some luck in the last two goals, and although the goals were scored by Rooney, Gerrard and Ashley Cole, the three goals were all assisted by Red Rebel players, which indirectly One thing has been proved, and that is the importance of the Red Rebels to the England national team.

After the game, Martin Samuel immediately praised Beckham in his column. He said that many years ago, everyone was criticizing England for its lack of forwards, defenders, and midfielders, but at that time He made it very clear that England does not lack players in any position, but lacks rhythm.

In fact, in this England national team, a very important reason why the Red Rebel players are irreplaceable is because they are often able to control the rhythm of the game and then control the game. This is true when Michael Johnson plays Afterwards, the effect is more obvious.

"Eriksson himself knows very well that the role of the Red Rebel players is the most important in the current England national team. This is why Beckham has just recovered from a serious injury, but he can't wait to start King David, and Beckham's performance was also classic, and both assists proved his strength."

"In the past, England emphasized strength and confrontation, but now England plays smarter and is better at controlling the rhythm and controlling the ball. This made Paraguay passive throughout the game and ended up losing 3:0!"

Everyone believed that Eriksen's choice of Beckham was a wise choice. Beckham reciprocated and brought him a victory. Relatively speaking, in Argentina's match against Ivory Coast, which was played one day later than England. Pekerman seemed very stubborn.

In Pekerman's Argentina national team, there is only one person who is irreplaceable, and that is Riquelme. Then behind Riquelme, a double midfielder configuration is ensured, respectively the captain of Droisden. Mascherano and Inter Milan midfielder Cambiasso, the combination of the two happens to be one strong and one soft.

Pekerman usually uses a 4312 tactic. The three defensive midfielders are Max Rodriguez, Mascherano and Cambiasso, the attacking midfielder is Riquelme, and the two forwards are Saviola and Crespo. , these players are all Pekerman's favorites, but Palacio, Messi, and even Aguero, who are in better shape, have been left behind by him.

As a result, in the game against Cote d'Ivoire, the defense line composed of Kolo Toure and Eboue, coupled with the midfielder of Keita and Yaya Toure, and the forward line led by Drogba, started the game. It caused a lot of trouble for Pekerman. Drogba even took advantage of a free kick and beat Ayala to score a header, 0:1!

After that, Pekerman's team continued to put pressure on Cote d'Ivoire, but the Toure brothers performed well, withstood Argentina's attack and kept the score until midfield.

In the second half, Pekerman still maintained the current configuration, hoping that the players' performance would improve, but after 20 minutes of performance, he finally gave up hope and adjusted the player configuration, replacing him with Palacio. Riquelme replaced Saviola with Messi. As a result, this adjustment immediately achieved unexpected results.

In the last 20 minutes, Argentina almost played the most beautiful frontcourt attack. The frontcourt trident composed of Messi, Palacio and Crespo even scored two goals from Ivory Coast, helping Arsenal successfully reverse their opponent. Messi also scored his first goal in the World Cup.

After the reversal, the media questioned Pekerman's use of troops, believing that Riquelme's speed was too slow and could no longer keep up with the development trend of today's football. On the contrary, Palacio was more in line with the current football trend. With outstanding ability and good at cooperating with teammates, he is the most powerful weapon connecting Argentina's midfield and frontcourt, and Messi also proved his strength with a goal.

However, Pekerman remained stubborn and said at the post-match press conference that Riquelme and Saviola needed time to adjust their status and believed that they would perform even better after the next round. .

In the next two days, Serbia and Montenegro lost to the Netherlands 0:1. The Red Rebels' powerful winger Robben scored the only goal of the game in the 18th minute of the opening game. Not only that, this The wide player was still the most outstanding star in the game and was selected as the best player in the game.

Italy defeated Ghana 2:1. De Rossi served as Italy's main defensive midfielder and performed well. He was a solid barrier for Italy's defense. Essien was the core of Ghana's midfield and helped Ghana reach the World Cup. First goal.

Brazil defeated Croatia 4-0 in the next game. Kaka performed a solo show in the World Cup and performed an amazing hat trick, which also made him the hottest superstar in the World Cup. , Robinho scored another goal to help Brazil defeat its opponent.

But just one day later, Kaka's goal on the scorer list was quickly matched by his teammates. In Spain's 4-0 victory over Ukraine, Villa also performed a hat trick. , he and Torres became Spain's goal scorers, and Villa also officially established himself as Spain's main forward in this battle.

Spain's main configuration in this World Cup is 433. The three forwards of Torres, Raul and Villa can play side by side. Among them, Villa's position is more erratic, wandering on the two wings and not very close to the penalty area.

After being tempered in the Premier League, Villa's skills are more concise and simple, but his physical confrontation ability is stronger, the frequency of movements is faster, coupled with his speed, making him a powerful weapon for Spain to attack the opponent's defense.

It should be said that Aragones made a very wise decision by replacing Liverpool's Luis Garcia in the starting lineup with Villa. At least Villa proved himself with a brilliant game and repaid the old coach's trust in him. In the second round, in the match between Spain and Tunisia, although Villa failed to score, his two assists helped Spain reverse their opponents and win their second victory in the group stage.

However, compared with Villa's popularity, Fabregas's status in Spain is not as good as Calabash's.

With three players in the midfield, Aragones relied more on the combination of Senna, Alonso and Xavi who are Spanish nationals. This prevented Fabregas and Iniesta from having too many performance opportunities. Bregas was pretty good and had the opportunity to play in at least two group matches, but Iniesta didn't even get a minute of substitute time.

Although there are not many chances to play, Fabregas is still full of expectations for his first World Cup trip. Xiao Yu and Mourinho also gave him encouragement, believing that after winning two games, Spain will To ensure first place in the group and the final game against Saudi Arabia, Fabregas will definitely get more opportunities.

Sure enough, in the third round, Aragones arranged a full substitute lineup, and Fabregas was entrusted with the important task of arranging the core of the midfield organizer. His midfield partners were Albelda and Igne. Star.

But this game made Fabregas feel depressed. The reason is very simple. Spain only defeated the underdog 1:0, and his personal performance was not ideal, although the only goal in the game came from him. assists, but he is still not satisfied with his performance.

Regarding his midfield partners, Fabregas believes that neither Albelda nor Iniesta can keep up with his rhythm. Sometimes he wants to be fast, but Albelda prefers to stick to the ball. Sometimes he There was a gap, but Iniesta chose to go it alone, which greatly reduced Fabregas' performance.

However, when Mourinho evaluated Fabregas' performance after the game, he still gave the Spanish teenager enough recognition, but he believed that Fabregas should learn more from Xavi. The latter's two games in Barcelona He has made very rapid progress this year, especially in reading and controlling the game. He is also the first to glimpse the threshold of a master. As time goes by, he will definitely transform.

After the three rounds of the group stage, all 16 qualifying teams for the World Cup were born.

Many media have an evaluation of the top 16 of this World Cup, that is, almost all the teams that should have qualified have qualified, and the teams that should not have qualified have not been upset.

Traditional strong teams including England, Germany, Brazil, France, Spain, Portugal, and Argentina have all qualified for the group stage. In addition, teams such as Mexico, Ukraine, and Ghana have also successfully qualified for the group stage. The only upset may come from Switzerland. This team defeated the French team and qualified first in the group.

When commenting on the best team of the group, the goalkeeper is Petr Cech. Although the Czech team was eliminated in the group stage, Cech's performance in the group stage was eye-catching. Although the Swiss goalkeeper Zubebler played three games in the group stage Not conceding a goal, Cech made world-class saves in almost every game, especially against Italy.

In this confrontation between the old and new goalkeepers, Cech stole the spotlight from Buffon, saving at least 3 must-goals in the game, while Buffon did nothing in the game due to Italy's dominance. .

The right back is Brazil's Maicon, the center back is England's John Terry and Argentina's Ayala, the left back is Germany's Lahm, Kaká is placed at the right midfielder position, and the central midfielder is Beckham. With Pirlo, the left midfielder is Portugal's Ronaldinho, and the forwards are Villa and Ronaldo.

When this selection was exposed, everyone had to marvel once again at the strength of the Red Rebels. They actually occupied 8 seats in the best team of the group stage. This shows that almost all the players of the Red Rebels have become members of their respective national teams. The core character of the soul.

But as the top 16 knockout rounds progressed, everyone was surprised to find out that the Red Rebels' strength had just begun.
