On April 2, Beijing time, the group draw ceremony of the 2022 World Cup was held in the host Qatar, and the results of the draw were announced, and C Ronaldo and Messi had different signings.
C Ronaldo is caught in the death group
Portugal is grouped in Group H, with opponents including Ghana, Uruguay and South Korea. For Cristiano Ronaldo, this is undoubtedly a "group of deaths". The strongest opponent is Uruguay, he and Cavani are Manchester United teammates, while the Red Devils just lost to Atletico Suarez in the Champions League, and Portugal were eliminated by Uruguay in the last World Cup.
South Korea is a top team in Asia, and Portugal had a festival in the 2002 World Cup, and Son Heung-min has super strength. Ghana is one of Africa's traditional giants, led by Premier League star Jordan Ayew, which should not be underestimated. So if you want to qualify from the group, Ronaldo and his teammates must go all out, otherwise there is a possibility of upsetting out!
Messi's qualification is not a big problem
Argentina was placed in Group C, with opponents including Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland. For Messi, this is a good signing, did not draw the traditional giants, Saudi Arabia's strength is weak, Mexico's overall strength is good, but the lack of signature stars, Poland is the opposite, in addition to Levan, the other positions are slightly weaker, so the group top qualified, it is not difficult.
A unique double-pride meeting? The earliest semi-finals!
Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have never played in the World Cup, this last time, can they meet? If Argentina finishes first in Group C, Portugal finishes in Group H, or both finish second in the group, then the two teams will be in different halves and will only be able to meet directly if they reach the final!
If Argentina and Portugal are first in the group and second in the group, then they will be divided into a half-zone, and the 1/8 and 1/4 finals will still not be able to meet, but if they both reach the semi-finals, they will meet directly and compete for a ticket to the final.
