text/Bin Shaokanqiu (starting) The third round of the World Cup continues to be played. In terms of the outside world's attention, the group E is concerned. Japanese team plays against Spain, while Germany plays against Costa Rica. Judging from the qualifying situation in this group, the four teams have the chance to qualify. The Spanish team currently has two wins and one draw, and the qualifying situation is the clearest, and the most serious one is undoubtedly the German team. Currently, there is only 1 point, ranking at the bottom, Japan plays 3 points, and Costa Rica also has 3 points.
From the perspective of the standings, it is also very interesting, especially the situation of the two World Cup champions. If the Spanish team loses, it is equivalent to losing the German team, because the Spanish team currently has 4 points, the Japanese team scores 3 points, and if the Japanese team beat Spain, it will reach 6 points. In this way, the German team beat Costa Rica and basically leads the Spanish team to qualify, because the German team wins the game, which is equivalent to 4 points in the end, but there are too few goals. Germany has to score at least 5-6 goals to qualify for the Spanish team. In the life-and-death battle in the World Cup, it is basically impossible to defeat the Spanish team by a large score.
Interestingly, the fate of the Spanish and German teams is actually connected. If the Spanish team loses in an upset or careless manner, it is very likely that the German team will also deliberately lose the game and drag Spain into the water. Because Spain loses, it will be 4 points, the Japanese team will have 6 points, and the German team will lose, and then the Japanese team and Costa Rica will qualify.
Therefore, the German team is hoping that the Spanish team can defeat the Japanese team, or at least draw, so that the German team has a chance to qualify. If the draw is made, the Spanish team will also lock in the qualifying. For the other two teams, after the Japanese team lost to Costa Rica, they were very passive. Even if they tied the Spanish team, they had to look at the German team's expression.
In general, the showdown between the four teams in this group is the most intense, and the confrontation will inevitably become more intense at that time. In the past World Cup games, this situation was very rare. A team can qualify if it loses, while a team can be eliminated if it wins. Such a World Cup script is very brain-burning, but no matter what, many fans believe that Spain and Germany can qualify for both.
