Old Remembered Sanda丨Kicking football can't be too "Polish team"
Fang Zhou, former sports reporter of Shenzhen Evening News, has reported on the World Cup and other competitions on the spot many times, and is a ball critic.

Watching the ball on two screens, focusing on two things, like a computing expert, experiencing the quantum entanglement of the 4 teams, is the final round of the World Cup group stage, giving us a unique viewing experience.

Treating Argentina and Saudi Arabia as an external environment, Mexico and Poland used stark contrasts to interpret their respective philosophies of survival.

Only a little bit closer, for the second time in the history of the World Cup, the "principle of fair play" will be used to determine the fate of the two teams. Last time just four years ago, Japan and Senegal had four points together, with the same goal difference and goals, and the win-loss relationship was a draw, and in the end, Japan squeezed out Senegal because they were missing two yellow cards. At that time, at the end of the final round, Japan trailed Poland 0-1 and Senegal trailed Colombia 0-1. The Japanese team had no intention of attacking and consumed time by passing at the back. Poland, as the first seeded team to go out of the last tournament, did not cherish their final World Cup time, and did not care about themselves, and there was a burst of boos in the stands.

This morning, when Argentina led Poland 2-0 and Mexico led Saudi Arabia 2-0, a similar situation occurred. According to the instant ranking of the group, Poland still overwhelmed Mexico and had a smaller advantage of yellow cards. At that time, the situation on the field on both sides was also clear, Argentina, who had already locked the qualification, pressed Poland to attack, Mexico still needed a goal to press Saudi Arabia to attack, and fans in the stands took out their mobile phones from time to time to follow the situation of another game, with a serious expression.

4 years ago, the Polish team affected the life and death of the same team in a not positive way; This time, when they face life and death, their attitude is still meticulous. The Polish team, which has the world's No. 1 center, did not even have a decent counterattack, and Lewandowski, who had zero shots in the whole game, returned to his own half to put down Messi, which shows that the Polish team's defensive line is compressed deeply, and the defensive action is also done carefully, because every card played by the referee may affect the overall situation. Time brings double suffering, as for whether the Mexican team will score again, it can only be the "providence" that the Polish team cannot care about.

Mexican football has always been tense in the past, and although the quarter-finals are a high hurdle, they have often been devastated in the group stage. The Mexican team in Qatar was originally a bit bleak, with only three of them from the top five leagues, and the first two games were not sexy. But when their lives hung in the balance, the Straw Hat Army broke out, facing Saudi Arabia, striker Hugo Chavez alone completed 9 shots in a single game, the most in the country's history to compete in the World Cup. With more than 60% possession and a total of 26 shots on goal, the team was busy facing Argentine Saudi goalkeeper Ovis in the first game.

Unfortunately, it was not time that finally judged the fate of the Mexican team, but a counterattack by the Saudi team. The overdrawn attack brought weakness in the air, and Mexico did not expect the goal that came ashore, and Poland, who ended the game earlier, expected the goal that lowered their blood pressure.

I don't mean to belittle Polish football, but their two approaches to the "principle of fair play" will inevitably attract criticism. In fact, in life, we will always accept advice from Polish football: such as not caring about ourselves, do not intervene in other people's disputes, just like the Polish team silently watching the Japanese team fall on its feet; For example, when encountering changes and risks, choose to be cautious and choose to resign themselves to fate, just like the Polish team is suffering from the critical attack of the Argentine team while praying that the Saudi team can resist the critical attack.

But after all, football is a transcendent art, a spiritual food to get rid of the ordinariness of life, a brave game to experience adventure and passion, and it may be helpless to be helpless once, beware of using it as a label.
