At 0:00 Beijing time on April 2, the Qatar World Cup will hold a group drawing ceremony in Doha. According to the newly released FIFA World Rankings, 32 teams (including play-off places) will be placed in 8 groups of 4 teams in each group by lottery.
Although the draw ceremony has not yet begun, England coach Southgate has already made a bold statement that England are capable of winning the World Cup.
At the draw ceremony of this World Cup, FIFA invited Cafu, Mateus, Milutinovic and other football celebrities as guests.
According to FIFA's latest rankings, 32 teams are divided into four draw pools based on the first to fourth gears.
There are 8 balls in each draw pool, and each ball has a team name inside.
Drawing the draw starts from the first draw, where guests will first draw a ball from the draw pool of teams including Brazil, Belgium, France, Argentina, England, Spain and Portugal, and then draw a ball from the group draw pool to determine the position of the team's group.
After that, the guests drew the second and third gears in turn, and finally drew the fourth gear.
Although the draw has not yet begun, England boss Southgate is already impatient with this World Cup trip.
He said that England reached the final four in the last World Cup and also won the runner-up at the European Cup, and the team was naturally eye-catching.
"We have the ability to win this year's World Cup." He said, "If we reach the world cup final four, then we can get to the final. We've done it at the European Championship before and if we can get to the final again, we can win. ”
He believes that "it's not easy to win the World Cup, you have to be almost perfect, and you have to stay that way before the game." ”
