In the early morning of this morning, the 2022 World Cup group stage draw ceremony ended, 8 groups fell one by one, and finally Argentina was in the same group with Poland, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Portugal with South Korea, Uruguay, Ghana in the same group, Messi and C Ronaldo directly dueled, then Argentina and Portugal at least to reach the final four, of course, the group stage, Argentina and Portugal have a lot of points to watch.
As a double pride in football, C Ronaldo is 37 years old this year, and Messi will turn 35 years old in more than 2 months, both of which are entering the end of their careers, so the 2022 World Cup is likely to be the last World Cup trip of the two.
The two have won all the honors at the club level and have also won the championship in the intercontinental arena, except for the lack of a World Cup trophy, which can not be crowned the "king of the ball", Messi was very close to the Hercules Cup in the 2014 World Cup final, but unfortunately fell to the runner-up.
Now that both have led Portugal and Argentina to the world cup finals, the grouping of the two teams is about how far they can go in the knockout rounds.
In the end, Argentina drew Saudi Arabia, Poland, Mexico, Portugal and South Korea, Uruguay, Ghana in the same group, overall, Argentina and Portugal are similar, the difficulty of qualifying Argentina is lower.
First of all, Messi wants to play directly with Levan, which is the biggest attraction of the argentine and Polish match, and domestic fans are hotly discussed, "let Messi send Levan home", "Poland is at the bottom of the game", "Argentina is really hanging up the hammer to play Poland".
Secondly, the showdown between Portugal and South Korea is like a battle of revenge. In the 2002 World Cup, Portugal and South Korea were in the same group, when South Korea fought at home to rely on the controversial 1-0 victory over Portugal, now Portugal has a chance to take revenge, C Ronaldo did not represent Portugal in the World Cup until 2006, no matter how to lead Portugal to win South Korea.
In addition, the contest between Portugal and South Korea, "European brother" C Luo and "Asian brother" Son Heung-min, is also a major attraction. The two are wearing the No. 7 shirt in their national team and club, of course, son Heung-min is in better shape at the moment, and C Ronaldo's age is there.
