Just past weekend, Qatar World Cup quarterfinals were produced. Before the game, in a bet with my friends, I patted my chest and said, " Netherlands , Brazil, Portugal, and England entered the semi-finals. If it is not right, I will treat you to barbecue!"
Later results, everyone has seen that my "toxic milk" attribute that has been covered by many years has triggered again: the Netherlands was eliminated by Argentina's penalty kick, and Brazil, which has the highest bid to win the championship, also fell in the penalty shootout, the winner of the British and French battle belongs to France again, and the "big dark horse" Morocco once again pulled out his "tough" and ended the dream of Ronaldo's World Cup...
I fulfilled my promise as soon as possible and really took my friend to have a barbecue. Although the food is indeed delicious, my friend and I are quite in a mixed mood - my friend is a loyal lover of Ronaldo for more than 10 years and is looking forward to the final this year with "Metro Ronaldo" duel, but now we can only accept the fact that Ronaldo and Portugal are eliminated. During the process, my friend did not forget to complain to me: "Brother, if you want to breastfeed in the future, please don't breastfeed in the future, I support you..."
As an Italian fan, this World Cup has regrets from the beginning. Without the home team, I thought this would be a peaceful tour of watching the game, but I didn't expect to witness the unfulfilled stories again and again.
The "German Chariots" and "European Red Devils" that are highly praised have fallen in the group stage. When Germany vs. Japan, I watched the game at Wanda Cinema with my fans of "Hunan German Fans". From the ecstasy of scoring one goal in the first half, to VAR's frequent cancellation of German goals, to the unwillingness and regret of losing two goals in the second half, "Hunan German Fans" experienced a roller coaster-like bitter viewing experience within 90 minutes.
, which once ranked first in FIFA and ranked first in player value, has also completely ushered in the "golden generation" farewell moment. de Bruyne , Hazard , Courtois , Lukaku , Carrasco , Vertonghen... These star-studded names were ultimately unable to be exchanged for the national team championship. They could only become the page that world football is about to turn over with endless regrets.
knockout stage, regrets intensify. 16 to 8, Japan fell to the top 16 again, Spain's self-death struggle created Morocco's upset; 8 to 4, Neymar's tears after the game and Ronaldo were heartbreaking, and the old coach van Gaal, who led the team and fought cancer, also stopped... This winter in Qatar is destined to be the dusk area of the gods in football, and it will also become a difficult place for many fans.
The reason why football is wonderful is precisely because it is difficult to calm down again and again. There are thousands of stars in the world, but there are always people who will never win the championship in their lifetime. Life is full of plants and trees. No one will always stand at the top, and no one will always fall into the bottom. Because of this, the story of talent, self-discipline, persistence, and loyalty is even more fascinating.
The old era will eventually become the past, and the new sunrise has slowly risen. In this World Cup, we have witnessed the rise of new generations of stars such as Alvarez, Pedri , Mushara, Bellingham, Gwadior, and Garvey, and have also witnessed the new changes in the world football landscape brought about by the progress of football in Asia and Africa. They will dominate the world football for the next decade or even longer.
Now, the last expectation of old fans is that Messi and Argentina can get to the end as they wish. In Argentina today, Messi is no longer alone. Players such as Paredes , de Paul , Alvarez, and Romero are the trustworthy right-hand men around Messi, making great contributions to Argentina's promotion path. In the early morning of December 14, they will face the challenge of Croatia in the semi-finals.
The ultimate suspense is about to be revealed, and the last four games of the Qatar World Cup (semi-finals, third and fourth finals, finals) will be staged this week. Many fans said that they hope that the last page of the story can witness the crown of the "King of Football". If so, it will be the most perfect final chapter of our youth.
