The end of the Champions League final means that all the Prince's games for the club this season are over, and the Prince only has less than two weeks of vacation, because the European Cup is about to start, and the national teams have begun to gather for training, and the Prince has this
The national players who are going to participate in the Champions League finals have been specially approved to join the training camp later, while other players have already started training and playing warm-up matches.
The Spanish national team has a warm-up match with Peru on June 31st. The prince does not need to participate. On June 3rd, the prince needs to report to the national team and participate in the warm-up match with the United States team on the 4th. This is also the first time the Spanish national team has played in Europe.
The last warm-up match before the cup, this is also a very important warm-up match for the team. It is not only a practice of tactics, but also a test for the players. Whether they can enter the squad or even the starting lineup, this is the best performance.
Opportunity. And on June 1st, the European Cup will officially begin.
The group draw for this European Cup was held in November of this year. The Spanish team was lucky. The opponents in the group stage were not very strong. Greece, Sweden, Russia and Spain were in the same group. Of course, the opponents were not very strong.
Strong, this is only on the surface, and the media agree that Spain's battle will not be easy. Although the Spanish team is the most optimistic about qualifying directly from the group, on the other hand, many people are optimistic about the other three teams.
The team unexpectedly eliminated the Matador, which was very contradictory.
The first is Greece. The dark horse of the last European Cup in Portugal went all the way. In the final, it defeated the host Portugal team, which has a golden generation such as Figo, and won the championship trophy. It can be said to have created a miracle myth, and the success of this myth
The first stepping stone is Spain. In the last group stage, the host Portugal and the dark horse Greece team worked together to qualify from the group, while the Spanish team in the same group could only be eliminated and went home early. The Greek team tied with Spain
After that, they stepped on the corpse of the Matador Legion and advanced to the quarterfinals. Of course, this time the European Cup was divided into a group again. Although Spain will not disrespect its opponents tactically, it will never let go of such a perfect opportunity for revenge.
The Russian opponent is not an easy team to deal with. Under Hiddink's guidance, the Polar Bears have shown a hint of a strong team. In the previous life, Russia reached the semi-finals of this European Cup. In the group
Not to mention qualifying, they also eliminated the Oranje Netherlands in the quarterfinals. Unfortunately, they met their group stage opponent Spain again in the semifinals. This time the Russian team failed to move forward and fell on the way to the finals. According to
In the prince's opinion, although the Russian team has a high level of tactical literacy and the team players cooperate tacitly, but since they were able to lose to the Spanish team twice in the previous life, they cannot pose any threat to the Matador now, as long as they are not too relaxed.
.
The Swedish team often plays the role of spoiler. Although its strength is not among the first-class, it is not easy to deal with strong enemies if it dares to fight and fight. Moreover, the team has players like Ibrahimovic who can rank among the best.
The top five players in the world are also opponents that cannot be underestimated, otherwise they will easily capsize in the gutter. There is no shortage of such examples in history.
Of course, Spain is really strong. Even without the prince in his previous life, they can still have the last laugh. Now with the prince starring, the Spanish team has no reason not to win the championship, and the process may be smoother.
.
The appearance of Spain's group is quite clear, but the other group in the lower half of the district with them can be said to be a real group of death.
Gallic Rooster France, 6-year World Cup champion Italy, Oranje Netherlands plus Romania as a spoiler, the whole world is exclaiming that there are only two qualifying teams, but they don’t know which team will be unlucky.
.
The French team is unlucky. They just broke out of the death group in the qualifiers and immediately fell into the death group in the finals group stage. What a fate. Since the retirement of Zidane, the world's number one star, the strength of the French team has
It is inevitable to start to decline. However, a new generation of French young players has gradually begun to emerge. Benzema, Nasri and others have gradually established a foothold in the team. Coupled with superstars such as Ribery, the strength of the French team
Not to be underestimated.
Of course, in the prince's previous life, the French team tragically returned home after three games with one draw and two losses. The Gallic Roosters, facing reconstruction, bid farewell to this European Cup in disgrace.
Looking back at the Dutch team's qualifying journey, although the Oranje's performance was quite satisfactory and uneventful, and they did not encounter too many troubles on the qualifying route, the team led by the legendary superstar Basten was always not to the liking of the domestic media and fans.
.Indeed, the Dutch fans who have the spirit of Total Offense and Total Defense in their bones are much more demanding about the exciting scenes of the game than the results. They never let down their "status" in the competition and the Tulip Army has also won the team the reputation of "The Uncrowned King"
.Except for the 1988 European Cup championship, the Dutch national team's honor book is blank. The ambitious Basten certainly wants to change this embarrassing situation. Born in the Netherlands and raised in Italy, the "Swan" naturally picked up the defense learned in Apennines.
Skill. Facts have proved that Basten's transformation of the team was successful. Although the game scene was ugly, the quality of defense has improved. This is especially important for the Netherlands, which is in the "replacement period".
The Dutch team played smoothly in the group stage, winning three out of three games. Among all the 16 participating teams, their performance was the best. However, the Orangemen, who had just qualified for the group stage, suffered a heavy blow.
They quickly lost to the Russian team led by Hiddink and missed the semi-finals of this cup.
After a peak, there is often a period of trough. Especially for a nation like Italy, which is free and undisciplined by nature, after winning a great victory, they often choose to party hard instead of making further progress.
Lippi's rapid withdrawal after the World Cup is not a good signal. The coach of the world champion is always a hot potato. In the end, amid a lot of doubts, the Italian Football Association chose Donadoni who lacked qualifications. Tired, confused, doubtful... The world champion is
In such an atmosphere, the journey of this European Championship began. Taking over in chaos, starting without a win, and moving forward steadily amidst criticism and ridicule, Donadoni showed the patience, confidence and enthusiasm that a championship coach should have.
Determination. What's more valuable is that Donadoni can recognize and correct his mistakes in time after making mistakes. This is more gratifying to the Italians than the stubborn old coach Trapattoni. And in the face of Totti and Nesta
Faced with repeated hesitations and Piero's "verbal warning", Donadoni also showed his tough side, boldly excluding Italy's three most influential stars from the past to 2016 from the national team, and playing for the ball.
The team reduced arguments and won a quiet atmosphere. Donadoni deserves a lot of credit, and the Italian players are also worthy of praise, especially the "new" international players who have not won the world championship. Ambrosini, Dina
Both Tale and Panucci played a crucial role in Italy's qualifying process. Barzagli, who was not reused under Lippi, also promptly shouldered the burden of Italy's central defender. These players are in line with those who still have the motivation to move forward in the world.
The champions together form Donadoni's team. They combine experience, quality and desire, and are a trustworthy team of kings.
In the prince's previous life, this Italian team was the first knockout opponent that the Spanish team met after the group stage, and caused a lot of trouble for the Spanish team in the game. In the last minute, the two sides still couldn't decide the winner.
Entered a brutal penalty shootout, a duel between Saint Cassie and Goddess Buffon.
Fortunately, Santa Cassie saved the penalty kicks of De Rossi and Di Natale, and Spain defeated Italy 4: and entered the next round.
Romania, the last team in Group C, used to be a banner of Eastern European football. Their skillful ground coordination and superb personal skills allowed them to once dominate Eastern Europe and achieve a series of brilliant results. In the 4th World Cup, in "
Under the leadership of the midfield schemer "Hage", Romania went all the way and even eliminated the Argentina team, which was the favorite to win the championship. Although they failed to cross Sweden in the end, the Romanian team became one of the biggest highlights of the World Cup.
Maradona and Haji of Alba Qianshan have become world-class midfield masters. In today's Romanian team, Mutu, who plays in Serie A, is undoubtedly the brightest star. Today's Mutu,
He is no longer the down-and-out player who took drugs, was suspended and was kicked out by Chelsea. After arriving in the Renaissance city of Florence, Mutu seems to be on the road to career renaissance.
If we say who is most promising to give fans the biggest surprise in this European Cup, then there is no doubt that it is this Eastern European team. However, in the prince’s previous life, this Romanian team still failed to make a big splash in the group stage.
With two draws and one loss in three games, they sadly left this European Cup without qualifying for the group stage.
The prince is not very concerned about the situation of the previous two groups ab. According to the schedule, only the Spanish team can reach the finals and have the opportunity to compete with the team that stands out in the two groups ab.
In the previous life, the German team stumbled out of the group stage, then went all the way and finally met the Spanish team in the final. The two teams gave the fans a peak showdown in the final. In the end, Spain's golden boy Torres scored the winning goal.
Won the championship trophy.
Now that a prince has been born, or a Callejon who has always been underestimated has been reborn, can the Spanish team win the championship more smoothly? (To be continued.
