Football King Bale

Chapter 521: Sign on

As soon as the binning scheme was introduced, it was met with huge controversy.

Why the French team that won the World Cup in 1998 and the runner-up in 2006 is only the second gear? And Wales, Norway, which are not the first-class European teams, can be seeded?

Although Wales passed all the way in the European Cup just ended, defeating Portugal, Spain and Italy successively to win the final championship, but no one really regarded them as a strong team.

Prior to the World Cup in South Africa, the European team was not ranked according to the FIFA rankings. In other words, the seed decision method for the European region this time was only the second in history.

Greece also benefited from the 2010 World Cup European Preliminaries. At that time, England's ranking in UEFA fell from ninth to the tenth missed seed team. Greece jumped into the seed team, and with Israel, Switzerland, Moldova, Latvia, Luxembourg The teams were divided together and finally appeared in the South African World Cup.

This time, the beneficiary team has even changed from a Greece four years ago to Wales and Norway.

If we can say that Wales can be ranked as the seed team, it has been expected by many people. Although everyone does not regard him as a strong team, after all, it is the new champion of Europe, and everyone can accept it as a seed team. But it is incredible that Norway has become a seed team.

In terms of seniority, Norway only participated in the World Cup in 1938, 1994 and 1998, and did not have any achievements in taking shots; such a resume is still a seed team, which is difficult to convince.

Looking back at the ranking of the 2010 South Africa World Cup in Europe, the Norwegian team could not even enter the top 16 but with the excellent results in the friendly match in the past year, including several victories in the European Cup qualifiers, the Norwegian team ranked in the world. Immediately rose to the 12th place in the world. If you are lucky in the subsequent qualifier draw, Norway can look forward to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

………………

However, whether it is acceptable or not, things have become a foregone conclusion and will not be shifted by the will of some people.

More than 2,000 people will participate in this highly anticipated ceremony, including 1,000 journalists from all over the world. Not only that, Ronaldo and 10 Brazilian stars participated in the draw as guests, and Brazil World Cup ambassador Bailey and Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff will also be present at the scene.

At the press conference before the lottery, Blatter was confident in Brazil’s preparations for the World Cup and believed that Brazil could complete the construction of venues, airports and other infrastructure within three years.

A reporter asked about the various scandals recently exposed by FIFA. For example, Harman criticized Blatter as a "dictator". Blatter replied: "We are a group to make decisions, not I am alone, I also Not a dictator."

At the same time, FIFA is also preparing to severely sanction corruption, bribery and other unhealthy practices. It is reported that the FIFA Ethics Committee has sent a letter to 25 countries and regions in the Caribbean to investigate the scandal of cash for voting rights. Once a suspected violation of discipline and regulations is found, the corresponding party may even experience lifelong participation. Heavy penalty for football.

………………

The lottery ceremony officially began at 2 a.m. on July 31, Beijing time. FIFA President Blatter took the lead in speeches in Portuguese. Blatter successively sent forward FIFA President Avilanje and Brazilian Football Association President Teixeira. Italy, I wish Brazil a successful and successful World Cup, and thank the Brazilian people for their efforts to this end.

Subsequently, Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff took the stage to give a speech. She especially thanked Bailey for her contribution to Brazilian football and emphasized that Brazil has enough strength to run the 2014 World Cup.

FIFA Secretary General Walker came on stage and the draw began. Walker first drew a play-off against half-continent continents, with fifth place in Asia and fifth place in South America competing for one seat, fourth place in North and Central America and the Caribbean and the Oceania champion competing for one seat.

Finally, there is a lot of attention in the European lottery. The guests are "aliens" Ronaldo and Santos stars.

According to the FIFA rankings, the European region loads six pools from high to low, and each pool draws a draw.

The nine teams in the first pool are Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, England, Wales, Portugal, Italy, Croatia and Norway. Within the group, home and away round robin matches are played, and nine top names advance to the finals. Two of the eight best performers entered the second round of competition. In the second round, the home and away elimination rounds were implemented, and the four victorious teams advanced to the finals. The second round needs to be redrawn.

Bell found that he and Wales were very close to G. In the previous European Cup qualifiers, Wales was drawn to Group G. This time in the Brazil World Cup European Region qualifiers, Wales was again drawn to Group G. The only difference is that last time they were not a seed team, but this time they are a seed team.

The five teams in the same group as Wales are Slovakia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Lithuania, Latvia and Liechtenstein.

Obviously, for Wales, this is definitely a signing, because this is almost the weakest group in the overall European 9 group.

It is probably Slovakia that may be a certain threat to Wales to get the group first.

At the 2010 World Cup, Slovakia regretted the 1-2 load in the 18 finals. Although they failed to reach the quarterfinals, this team that first entered the World Cup finals still received applause.

After the World Cup, they did not show signs of short-livedness. In the 2012 European Cup qualifiers, they ranked first in Group B, and the qualifying situation is very good.

In addition, there are star players such as Scott and Weiss. With the creation of Old Weiss, the team still adheres to the old way of defensive counterattack, but the weak offense is still their old problem.

Bosnia and Herzegovina's strength is fair, but top-heavy teams are more likely to suffer losses in the group double round robin system, especially in the face of these two experienced and good defensive counterattacks. Lithuania, Latvia and Liechtenstein hardly pose too many threats, although Latvia also appeared on the stage of the 2004 European Cup.

………………

England also won the signing, which is in Group H with Montenegro, Poland, Ukraine, Moldova and San Marino.

Looking at the European giants, England's grouping situation is the best. The strength of the teams in the same group is not far behind the Three Lions.

However, the current coach of England, Capello, still views this result in his usual conservative style. "This is by no means an easy group. You must take it seriously. Every game is as important as the final!"

In Group H, England also met a familiar opponent. In the 2012 European Cup qualifiers, Montenegro and England are in the same group. Capello said: "We know Montenegro is a strong opponent, and I look forward to playing against them in the second round."

Capello did not seem to be optimistic about the possibility of other opponents qualifying. He said: "Ukraine? I remember the last time I played against them was in 2010. We defeated them. Ukraine also lost the qualification for the World Cup in South Africa. Moldova? This Not a strong opponent. San Marino is in a similar situation to them."

Afterwards, Capello made a quick turn and directly mentioned a sensitive issue: "My contract ended in 2012. It is likely that another coach will lead England to the 2014 World Cup qualifier."

"Sky Sports" also wrote an article: England is generally not optimistic about Capello's stay, most of the spinners' odds show that Redknapp is likely to take Capello's seal in 2012.

However, Capello is still quite optimistic about the future of England. He said: "The prospect of England will be bright, because we have many young people with great potential. By 2014, they will provoke the team's beam! I am convinced that we have some very good young people, and the future belongs to them!"

The other seven groups are all more anxious.

The seed team of Group A is Croatia. In the latest FIFA rankings, Croatia ranks 10th in the world and 8th in Europe. Greece ranks 14th in FIFA, Serbia ranks 28th, Belgium ranks 38th, Scotland ranks 62nd, and Macedonia ranks 97th. Judging from the FIFA rankings, Croatia, which participated in the 2008 European Championship, is the strongest, while Greece, Serbia, and Belgium constitute the second group. Scotland and Macedonia basically play the role of soy sauce.

Italy, Denmark, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Armenia, and Malta are grouped in Group B. For Italy, these opponents are not unfamiliar, especially in the 2004 European Championship, Italy is also in a group with Denmark and Bulgaria~www.NovelMTL.com~ Germany, Sweden, Ireland, Austria, Faroe Islands, Kazakhstan is divided into Group C. The German team, now ranked third in the world, is undoubtedly the biggest favorite, and Sweden and Ireland are more likely to compete second.

There are 6 teams in Group D, they are the Netherlands, Turkey, Hungary, Romania, Estonia and Andorra. South Africa's World Cup runner-up Netherlands is undoubtedly stronger, but the Turks must not be underestimated.

Six teams including Norway, Slovenia, Switzerland, Albania, Cyprus and Iceland were placed in Group E. This group does not have a traditional strong team, but this is what makes the competition in this group even more fierce.

In Group F of the European Zone, Portugal, Russia, Israel, Northern Ireland, Azerbaijan, Luxembourg and other 6 teams were grouped together.

The defending champion Spain is in Group I with France, Belarus, Georgia and Finland. Spain unfortunately encountered the most powerful France in the second-tier team, but the other opponents in the same group were weaker. The situation in Group I can be described as the "two heroes" between Spain and France.
