Just at night when they got on the plane.
Another semi-final battle has also begun.[
Germany vs Argentina!
The participating teams in the competition are very attractive, but in China, many fans have lost interest in the World Cup, and only some fans choose to watch the World Cup again.
Germany swept England 4-1 in the 18th final to advance, and the morale of the German tanks was at its peak. Argentina also eliminated the powerful Mexican team 3-1. In the 14th final, the early collision between Germany and Argentina attracted particular attention.
The two teams have played 18 times in history, with Argentina having the advantage with 8 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses.
For this campaign, Maradona formed the strongest lineup, led by Tevez, Higuain and Messi, with Mascherano in the midfield, Demichelis guarding the defense, and Romero guarding the goal. In Germany, Ke
Loser advanced forward, Bastian Schweinsteiger sat in the midfield, and Neuer guarded the goal.
Germany got off to a dream start in just 3 minutes. Otamendi fouled Podolski. Bastian Schweinsteiger's free kick from the left circled into the penalty area. Thomas Muller nodded the ball in front of the goal.
, Romero failed to save, 1-0!
The lightning goal set the tone for this game. Argentina was in trouble.
Germany swept Argentina 4-0 and advanced to the top four.
After the 0-4 defeat to Germany, Maradona returned to the locker room and cried. It was obvious that Maradona and his players could not accept the broken dream. According to German media
With less running, the threat is naturally smaller. Statistics show that Messi had 8 shots in the whole game, but 3 of them were blocked by the opponent immediately (this proves that he has not completely gotten rid of the opponent, and he started to shoot).
He attacked the goal with his foot, so he was blocked; if it were normal, he would often completely pass the opponent before shooting, and it would be difficult to be blocked by the opponent's flying shovel). He missed 3 times and only hit the goal frame twice.
, but neither of the two shots caused Neuer much trouble.
In terms of passing, Messi also works very hard. He constantly hopes to launch threatening passes, hoping to help the team's forward line. However, he launched 16 direct passes and 4 crosses. But his 4 crosses,
They were all cleared immediately by their opponents. Of the 16 direct passes, only 2 resulted in shots. One was in the 29th minute, when Messi scored and Heinze's shot from the left was high; the other was
In the 63rd minute, Messi scored the ball and Higuain shot with his left foot 10 meters away from the goal, but it missed again. Obviously, these two passes can be described as "clever", but this level of
Effort, in the face of the score of 0-4, is not very convincing.
It is undeniable that Argentina's defeat was closely related to Argentina's too weak defense, Maradona's choice of humanity, and Argentina's improper tactical choices. But it is also undeniable that today's Messi is not the best Messi.
He did not perform to the level he should have. As the core of the Argentine team, Messi failed to help the team with goals and assists, and failed to fight hard when the team lost. He even failed to use more
More running and more fighting to inspire the whole team. Argentina, without a core, fought on their own, so all their offenses turned into show-offs, and collapsed in the face of the bloody slaughter of their opponents.
Strangely enough, before the World Cup, the media was hyping up the "Five Kings": Rooney, Ronaldo, Li Yu, Messi and Kaká.
Before this battle, four people were collectively eliminated, which originally provided Messi with the best chance to win the Ballon d'Or. If Messi could lead the team to win the championship or even go one step further, Messi would win the Ballon d'Or.
The biggest favorite. But this night, Messi made Argentina, Barcelona and fans around the world miserable. Of course, he himself was more disappointed than anyone else. This once again proves that stars are not the only thing that determines victory or defeat on the football field.
code.
Li Yu learned the news on the plane. Another superstar could go on vacation with peace of mind. Jenny was curious about why Li Yu looked so sad. She felt heavy after being eliminated. Li Yu vowed to
I will never pay attention to the World Cup reports again, lest I ruin my hard-earned vacation.

The Spanish defeated Paraguay economically.
The opponents in the semi-finals are also confirmed, Spain vs. Germany, Netherlands vs. Uruguay!

They will meet Germany in the semi-finals to compete for a spot in the finals.
According to statistics from FIFA's official website, in international competitions, Germany and Spain have had 20 confrontation records in history, with Germany slightly having the upper hand with 8 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses. Among them, the two sides have met 3 times in the history of the World Cup.

Germany and Spain had similar experiences in the group stage. They both achieved two wins and one loss, and eventually both retained their first place in the group and advanced to the top 16. But in the knockout stage, the two teams had completely different experiences.

Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard, Messi, Higuain, Tevez and many other stars fell in front of the German chariot. Loew's use of troops and the tenacious will of the Germans were impressive. On the contrary, Spain sent
Two 1-0 endings, although it also blocked Portugal, led by Ronaldo, from the quarterfinals.
, but including Paraguay, the quality of these two teams is obviously not as good as England and Argentina. The media generally believes that Spain has not yet been truly tested. In the semi-finals, Germany encountered the third favorite team to win the championship, and Spain
Ushering in real challenges, this kind of dialogue makes people look forward to it.
In the semi-finals, the performance of the top scorers of the two teams will also be the focus of most attention. Villa's goal helped Spain defeat Paraguay, and his number of goals in this cup has also reached 5 alone, leading the scorer list after the quarter-finals. As Spain's top striker, whether he can successfully win the Golden Boot Award is a topic of concern to Spanish fans. In addition, Villa is the national team's top scorer. The total number of goals has reached 43, ranking second in Spanish history, only one less than the first Raul. If there can be more gains in the remaining two games, Villa will have a chance to catch up or even surpass Raul became the top scorer in the history of the Spanish national team.
Like Villa, Germany's main forward Miroslav Klose is also waiting for the record-breaking moment. First of all, he has scored 4 goals in this cup and is very hopeful to compete for the Golden Boot. If his dream can come true True, he will become the first player in history to win the World Cup Golden Boot Award. In addition, there is a greater record waiting for Klose.

In the next two games, he is likely to catch up with or even surpass Ronaldo and become the player with the most goals in World Cup history. To achieve this goal, Klose will definitely go all out in the semifinals.
