Is Pogba the culprit?
In the 1/8 final between France and Switzerland, France was eventually tied with Switzerland in a very good situation and lost the game in a penalty shoot-out. Although Mbappe missed the last crucial penalty, many French players have accused Pogba after the game. Switzerland’s last goal was due to Pogba’s midfield control error. In the case of being double-teamed by many people, Pogba still inadvertently controlled the ball. The Swiss player completed a steal from Pogba and used a fast break to equalize the score.
For this conceded, Rabiot was very dissatisfied with Pogba. Rabiot believed that Pogba’s defensive attitude was problematic at the last minute. At the same time, the French defender Varane criticized Paval’s defensive performance for not being active enough. In this regard, Pavar pushed the pot to Pogba, and then Varane began to support Paval again, believing that Pogba exists in defense. There is a big problem. Of course, as to whether Pogba is the culprit behind France’s exit, this is also a question of whether the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees wisdom.
Is England the champion?
After defeating Germany 2-0, England became the only super strong team in the second half of the division. Because of this, after promotion, the British media also looked forward to the final at Wembley Stadium. Counting the group stage, England played a total of 4 games, England is the only team that has conceded zero goals. In other words, England is no longer such a team with only one or two superstars anymore. Southgate has achieved a solid defense while seeking offense and development. In other words, England is now more mature in the tactical system, more champion temperament,
As a whole, football has become the mainstream of this year’s competition. Those teams that don’t push the longboard but try to make up for their shortcomings can go further. Cristiano Ronaldo, who was a weak helper, was eliminated with Portugal; France, whose core players were too volatile and talented, was defeated by Switzerland’s three-pass counterattack. The top 16 of the “Death Group” were out of the game. There is luck, but the teams that always get more luck are the overall average teams. After all, it shows that there is a trend, but there are 2-3 more substitutions. Changing the rules can make the football game more variable. So now the question is, will England be the last team to laugh at this European Cup?
“Volleyball Prince” is here again?
In the 1/8 final of the European Cup, the Netherlands, which had a complete victory in the group stage, lost to the Czech Republic 0-2. There are many reasons for the loss, but Dutch defender Dericht was sent off the court after receiving a red card for handball in the second half. Indeed, in the face of an opportunity that is not an absolute attack, De Licht chose a volleyball clearance action. Naturally, this action did not escape VAR’s eyes. As the last defensive player, De Ligt was sent off with a direct red card. In the group stage, the Slovak goalkeeper once had a “volleyball own goal” action. And now, De Ligt has also become the “Prince of Volleyball”, which is really embarrassing.
In fact, as early as the 2019-2020 season, De Ligt, who played his first season in Italy, gained the nickname of “Little Volleyball Player”, because he had consecutive handballs that year, so he sent as many as 3 penalty kicks. After his first appearance in the European Cup this year, he was sharply criticized by the Dutch football star Van Basten: “What did he learn in Serie A?”
Who will come after the mirror night of 2 games with 14 goals?
The two games in the early morning of June 29 were classics. The progress of the two games was ups and downs. Spain and Croatia tied 3-3 in regular time. Spain scored 2 goals in overtime to seal the victory, and finally 5 -3 defeated Croatia. The other game was almost staged in exactly the same plot. Switzerland was also tied in stoppage time when it was 1-3 behind, dragging the game into overtime. In overtime, both teams failed to score and the game entered a penalty shoot-out.In the penalty shootout, Mbappé missed a key penalty kick, Switzerland 8-7 magically advanced to the top 8 and France, the hot champion, was out of the game.
Scored 14 goals in two games. The script was perfectly copied in regular time. This is definitely the most exciting, exciting and craziest night of this European Cup. Even if you look at the history of the entire European Cup, such a night is unique. There are reversals, own goals, point kicks, overtime, point kicks, and championship favorites. No wonder some fans lament that such a magical script may not even be written by God. May I ask if there are any comers after such a scene?
Cristiano Ronaldo’s European Cup swan song?
Although he has reached the age of 36, Ronaldo’s performance on the court is still shocking. Scored 5 goals in 4 games, tying the national team goal record held by Aliday. However, after losing to Belgium, will Ronaldo say goodbye to this event? Appeared in 5 European Cups, played 25 games, achieved 14 victories, played a total of 2,152 minutes, scored 14 goals, Ronaldo won a number of European Cup records. However, the cruel reality is also in front of us. The Portuguese team, which stopped in the top 16, created the worst record in European Cup history. Ronaldo has turned 36 years old. This is a high probability that his last European Cup. Saying goodbye in this way is definitely not what Portugal’s top star wanted.
Seeing that Ronaldo still maintains a perfect body and competitive state, and can still dominate the top scorer list on the stage of the European Cup, many fans will always be tempted to shout the phrase “You can always trust Ronaldo”. It’s just that the years are aging, leaving the Portuguese team to rely on Ronaldo really not much time. If the “Little Luo” who left men in tears after losing in the 2004 European Cup final, let people see hope and the future, then the lonely back after the exit of the European Cup this year, I am afraid that Ronaldo’s last time is reflected. Not much national team career. As for the next European Cup, can we see Ronaldo? This can only wait for time to unravel the mystery for us.
Captain of the hero is black to the end?
In the first game, when Eriksson fell to the ground in shock, Kayar’s actions reflected the ability and responsibility of a captain-he participated in first aid for the first time and helped the medical staff to remove Eriksson from the death line. Pulled up and back, he was praised by the fans as a man who “guarded against death”. And it is such a man who guarded against death, came from behind to break into the last 16 of this European Cup. In the game against Wales, Kjaer defended the Welsh superstar Bale and let his opponent get nothing. After the 1/8 finals were all over, Kjaer was also elected UEFA’s best player.
In the quarter of the game, Denmark’s opponent was the Czech Republic. In the face of such an opponent, can a heroic captain like Kjaer continue to lead the team to the end? Indeed, according to the development of the current situation, it seems that it is not an impossible thing for Denmark to write a fairy tale belonging to them on the field.Return to Sohu to see more
