In the early morning of April 2, the dust of the 2022 Qatar World Cup group draw was settled, and the overall asian team had poor signing luck. However, the host Qatar, as well as the South Korean team next door to us, smelled the opportunity to qualify.
Let's take a look at the specific groupings of the five and a half Asian teams.
Qatar, as host, is a seeded team of A, but it has drawn the Netherlands among the two strongest European teams in the second pot. Fortunately, the third and fourth teams in this group are not from Europe, Senegal and Ecuador are relatively easy to deal with, which gives Qatar the confidence to attack the second place in the group.
The saddest thing is Iran. The tough team was thrown straight into Group B for England, the United States and The European Play-off winners. It is said that Iran has the ability to challenge the United States, but this is obviously just psychological comfort, according to the author, any team in this group is stronger than Iran, and it is not easy for the West Asian team to score 1 point.
The Saudi team was divided into the most evenly balanced Group C of the other three teams, which made people smell the taste of three consecutive defeats. Whether it is Argentina, Mexico or Poland, there is enough for Saudi Arabia to eat a pot, and our only hope for it may be that there will be no more tragedies like 0-8.
Japan was assigned to Group E, with Spain and Germany in the same group, and the Japanese team had almost said goodbye directly to the right to qualify. However, there is still a place in this group that belongs to the winners of New Zealand and Costa Rica, so there is a good chance that Japan will leave the World Cup in Qatar with 3 points.
In contrast, the South Korean team, which is divided into Group H, has a glimmer of life. Portugal is a relatively weak seeded team, the World Cup in Japan and South Korea, the South Korean team let Portugal hate the group stage; Uruguay is the second-gear team in the decent team, the tough South Korean team has the ability to fight with one; the third-gear team Ghana, although it has a dark horse, but the experienced Korean team is never afraid of this team.
Therefore, the South Korean team may not only qualify, but also occupy the top position in the group, which will help it to impact the top 8.
The other half of the team is the winner between the UAE and Australia, and if it can defeat Peru to qualify for the World Cup, it will appear in Group D of France, Denmark and Tunisia. Tunisia is slightly less powerful, but France is the defending champion, and Denmark is a European powerhouse that can continue to play steadily in the competition, and the hope of this half of the team to advance is very slim.
Let's bless the Asian team!
