The current situation of Côte d'Ivoire gives the other two teams greater hope of qualifying. Of course, this also gives the other two teams more expectations for the upcoming game.
The outside world is paying great attention to and looking forward to this group match between the Portuguese national team and the North Korean team.
This is not the first confrontation between the two teams. The two teams have faced off once in history, and that time was also on the stage of the World Cup.
However, it was not in the group stage, but in the quarter-finals.
It was the 1966 World Cup in England. The North Korean team at that time was as mysterious as the North Korean team in the South Africa World Cup today. The outside world knew nothing about them. People couldn't even name the players of that North Korean team. Even
When the football commentators at that time were commenting, they only used language like "No. 2 passed to No. 5, No. 5 made a pass, No. 10 went in, and No. 10 shot."
However, the North Korean team in this competition shocked the world. They left a mark in the history of the World Cup and were also the first cry of an Asian team on the World Cup stage!
In that World Cup, the North Korean team and the Portuguese national team played a wonderful game together.
Maybe people can't remember who won the World Cup that year, but people can't forget the quarterfinal match between North Korea and Portugal - that game is considered one of the most thrilling classic battles in the history of the World Cup.
It was the quarter-finals of the 1966 World Cup in England. After the North Korean team eliminated Italy 1-0, they met the Portuguese national team here, who had reached the World Cup finals for the first time at that time.
This game can be described as a contest between two new armies, and it naturally attracted countless people's attention.
The progress of this game can be described as twists and turns. Just 24 minutes into the game, the mysterious North Korean team already led the Portuguese national team 3-0. But just when everyone thought that the North Korean team would become the first Asian team to enter the quarterfinals of the World Cup.
After the team became the first Asian team to advance to the semi-finals of the World Cup, the Portuguese national team began their sharp counterattack, and a thrilling classic game had just begun.
The Portuguese national team, led by the "Black Panther" Eusebio, scored five goals in the following games, reversed the North Korean team 5-3, and successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the World Cup that year.
In this game, one person scored four goals and became the hero of the Portuguese national team.
Forty-four years have passed since this game, but this game is still talked about by fans. Now because the two teams will face off again in the World Cup, more fans know about it.
and recited.
The two teams met again after 44 years, which naturally attracted the attention of countless people, especially those who had participated in that thrilling game.
Park Dou-il, a player on that mysterious North Korean team and now the legendary star of the North Korean team, was interviewed by media reporters before the game. Park Dou-il was the one who defeated Italy 1-0 in that World Cup.
The hero who advanced to the quarterfinals.
At that time, when the North Korean team learned that they would face the Italian national team in the quarter-finals, almost everyone was not optimistic about them. Even the North Korean team players themselves had given up and had already checked out before the game.
of hotels.
However, Park Dou-il's shot in the game changed everything. His goal helped the North Korean team miraculously eliminate the Italian team and successfully advance to the quarterfinals of that World Cup.
Park Dou-il said in an interview: "I never dreamed that I would see a day like this. This is a big surprise. North Korean football once again shocked the world. The first World Cup match against Brazil
, our players showed good coordination, excellent skills and tactics, and most importantly, tacit understanding of teamwork, which made the game very compact and intense."
Park Dou-il also said: "Ji Yoon-nam's goal proves the ability and strength of our North Korean team. The world will definitely be shocked by us again. I believe that through this World Cup, many countries will recognize us again."
Of course, when everyone interviews Park Dou-il, they will also be asked about the upcoming game. The North Korean team will face the Portuguese national team again after 44 years. Everyone wants to know about Park Dou-il at this time.
One thought.
When talking about the game 44 years ago, Park Dou-il showed a smile on his face. He said: "It was just a game. Qualifying from the group has brought us too much happiness. That game that year (with
(Portugal), we played with a relaxed mentality. Although the result is very frustrating, we have done well enough."
That game left him endless happiness. Whenever he recalls that game, his face is always full of smiles. The players on their team are happy.
When talking about the upcoming game, Park Dou-il said this: "For this game, of course I hope that our North Korean team can win the final victory. But our opponent is very strong, and we must win.
Go out and fight with your opponent’s mentality,”
From the beginning to the end, Park Dou-il never said anything like "revenge". It can be seen that he took this game very lightly, and he also believed that the game so many years later was not necessary to compete with the game more than 40 years ago.
As long as the relationship is involved, this is just an ordinary game.
However, Park Dou-il's words still gave the North Korean team a lot of encouragement. Zheng Dae-se, the most outstanding star in North Korean football after Park Dou-il, also accepted an interview with media reporters before the game. Comrade Zheng Dae-se said: "The victory of this game
It must belong to us, and we are confident that we can defeat our opponents and complete our revenge."
Comrade Zheng Dashi is very popular now. It is said that his agent is very busy now. Many European teams have begun to contact him, hoping to introduce Zheng Dashi and let Zheng Dashi play for their teams.
The entire North Korean team seems to have strong confidence in this game. Ji Yoon-nam, who scored a goal in the last game, said in an interview with media reporters: "We have already played against Brazil.
We have shown our strength and I don’t think anyone can underestimate us.”
Ji Yinnan also said: "There are several outstanding players in the Portuguese national team. They are very strong, but we are not weak. We will use our strength to shock the world again, because we are the North Korean team.
!”
The head coach of the North Korean team, Kim Jong-hoon, did not accept interviews from media reporters. The head coach of the North Korean team, Kim Jong-hoon, is as mysterious as the North Korean team. He always deliberately avoids interviews with the media, even when arranged by the organizers.
He rarely attended press conferences, leaving reporters with a shy and reserved impression.
However, it is said that Kim Jong-hoon is a fierce player behind the ball. As a defensive engineer, his almost ferocious pressing often earned him red and yellow cards.
It’s hard to imagine why Comrade Kim Jong-hoon has changed so much. Is he doing this just to maintain his sense of mystery?
Kim Jong-hoon did not accept interviews from media reporters, but the assistant coach of the North Korean team did. He expressed the meaning of head coach Kim Jong-hoon. He said: "We have ambitious goals for this game, and we will
By winning and getting a chance to qualify, our North Korean team has a more ambitious goal on the World Cup stage."
The implication is that the North Korean team's qualifying from the group is just the most elementary goal. Now they have not put their minds on this at all, but on the later games, as if they have already thought that
They can qualify from this group.
These actions of the North Korean team made his family feel that they were really arrogant. Many media and fans were not optimistic about the North Korean team, thinking that the North Korean team was too self-righteous. But when they thought about the same situation, the mysterious
North Koreans have shocked the whole world, so at this time, when they express their opinions, their voices are always weak.
However, Portuguese star Eusebio, who had participated in that thrilling game forty-four years ago, was very vocal before the game. He said: "The North Korean team back then was really strong. Looking back now, it is really a blessing that we were able to win.
So lucky. In fact, at that time, we never thought we would win."
Eusebio also revealed some details of that year. He said: "At zero to three, we almost gave up. However, I clearly remember Simon Ace said to me at that time, as long as we don't have zero to three.
If we were four behind, we would not lose. Sure enough, we won the game later, although we were lucky to win."
When Eusebio mentioned the North Korean team in 1944, his expression was very serious and solemn. He had great respect for that North Korean team. In his heart, that North Korean team
It is a strong team and a team worthy of everyone's respect.
However, when talking about the current North Korean team, he said this: "The current North Korean team can obviously not keep up with the North Korean team of 1944. Although they have some strength, it is not enough.
And the current Portuguese national team is not the new World Cup team it was in 1944, so I think the North Korean team has no chance in this game."
Eusebio is the current ambassador of the Portuguese national team, and his words represent the thoughts of the Portuguese national team. Moreover, fans of the Portuguese national team also think that Eusebio is right. This North Korean team is not a threat at all.
to them.
Eusebio also said: "We have two of the world's top teams in Cristiano and Chris, and our team not only has two of the world's top stars, but also many very good players. We
It is a very strong team, and our goal in coming to this World Cup is not to qualify for the group stage, but to win the World Cup."
Comrade Eusebio's words are very resounding. These words are not just for the North Korean team, but also for the top players in the World Cup. They are not supporting roles in the World Cup this time. They are here to be the protagonists. They are the protagonists.
Came here to win the World Cup.
This is not the first time that the Portuguese national team has said such a thing. At first, everyone thought that the Portuguese national team was changing the subject. Now it seems that the Portuguese national team really thinks so. The whole team is here for this goal.
