Hello folks, everyone! Although there will be no more club matches before the New Year, the national team matchday is back on the schedule again. Since the group stage of the European World Preliminary Round has come to an end, this time only the red and blue players from the Americas need to work, and Dest, Araujo and Alves will all go to their respective national teams!
Central and North American World Preliminary Tournament
Durst have three games to complete with the United States, and the Ceca-North American World Preliminary Tournament is in its final stages, with the top three of the eight teams heading straight to Qatar and the fourth finisher going to the play-offs.
At present, the United States is one point behind Canada in the Central American World Preliminary Rounds and ranks second, but it is only one point ahead of Mexico and Panama behind it, and there is still a risk of falling into the play-offs.
The U.S. team's schedule is:
Beijing time on January 28 at 8:30 USA vs El Salvador
Beijing time january 31 at 4:05 Canada vs. the United States
Beijing time on February 3 at 8:30 US vs Honduras
Of course, the U.S. team will strive to win all six points against El Salvador and Honduras, especially considering that they were forced to draw 0-0 by El Salvador in the first round, and this time they can't lose the points they should take.
The biggest challenge for the U.S. team is to face Canada away from home, and although Canada has only played in the World Cup once, they are the only unbeaten team in this third stage of the Central and North American region. On the road below freezing, Destin and his team-mates are on the run to make a comeback to Canada's unbeaten body.
South American World Preliminary Round
Alves and Araujo will follow their respective national teams to complete two rounds of matches, with the top four of the ten teams in the South American zone going straight to Qatar and the fifth finisher playing in the play-offs.
Brazil, which has already qualified for the World Cup in Qatar early, has no pressure on the record, Uruguay are currently only in seventh place, but they are only one point away from fourth place.
Brazil's fixtures are:
5:00 Beijing time on January 28 Ecuador vs Brazil
February 2, 8:30 Beijing time Brazil vs Paraguay
Uruguay's fixtures are:
7:00 Beijing time on January 28, Paraguay vs Uruguay
7:00 Beijing time on February 2 Uruguay vs Venezuela
Uruguay suffered four consecutive defeats in the previous World Cup, which also led to the departure of 15-year-old coach Tavares, who has been in charge of the team for 15 years, and his successor is former Miami international coach Diego Alonso.
Uruguay's two opponents this time are behind themselves, which is a great time for them to improve their rankings. Araujo has contributed very consistently in recent club competitions, which I believe will also help him gain the favor of the new coach of the national team.
Great mentor
Barca's former goalkeeper and goalkeeper coach Winsue recently visited La Masia with his biography and shared his life experiences and stories with the young people there.
Despite being diagnosed with frostbite, Wensue, who has little left in his life, is actively moving around the world, calling attention to the disease, giving some life advice: "We must look for something that can be controlled to face the difficulties, and we must fight it with a positive attitude." ”
All three journalists who wrote biographies spoke of how privileged it was to learn about The Life of Wensue. Una vida plena, an autobiography that focuses on the memories of people close to Winsue, will be used for research against frostbite.
Wensué told the children of La Masia: "Team games at the highest level force you to make decisions from an early age. Just as young athletes in La Masia have to leave their families to pursue their dreams, he urges children to at least not "let themselves regret it when they look back later."
I hope that the children of La Masia will cherish this opportunity to communicate and take to heart the teachings of this great teacher!
