The third-place race for the Qatar 2022 World Cup came to an end, with Croatia beating Morocco to finish third, winning the title for the second time in history. Croatia is not a dark horse, it is a veritable football powerhouse!
Croatia, a country of only about 4 million people in southeastern Europe, gained independence from the former Yugoslavia in 1991. In the 1998 FIFA World Cup, he won the third place in his first participation, and participated in the World Cup for a total of 6 times, winning 1 runner-up and 2 third places. This World Cup result in Europe beats Belgium and Portugal, and is on par with the Netherlands. Their performance in the World Cup was 3 stops in the group stage, 2 times third place and 1 runner-up. As Modric said: "We want to win the gold medal and we are close, the team is sorry and sorry for that, but we should also be proud and happy for the bronze medal." We should not be seen as a dark horse, but as a football superpower. ”
Remember that in 1998, Davosuke's Plaid Army made its first appearance amazing, and Suker won the Golden Boot with 6 goals. They don't have superstars, but they perfectly embody team football, are technically delicate, and are known as the European Brazilian team. So next time Croatia wins the traditional strong team, don't say that the dark horse is upset, itself is a strong team, the results of recent editions have said it all, strong as England, Portugal results are not comparable!
Chinese football has gone further and further on the road of learning a football power, learning Brazil, Germany, Italy, and Spain, and as a result, it has become four different things, no technique, no fighting spirit, no team, no defense. Coaches from Germany Schlapner, Milu, Forado, Perran, Camacho, Lippi one after another foreign coaches, except for Milu led the team to the Korea-Japan World Cup in 02, other coaches have failed, what does it mean? The development of football depends on the strength of its own players, combined with the coach's style of play, but unfortunately, in the past 20 years, Chinese football has experienced two match-fixing and corruption, and many football professionals have not been released from prison last time in 2013. Now the former coach Li Tie is still under investigation, and the football circle involved may be very large, so Chinese football is still going backwards without any progress!
The Football Association has made the Chinese Super League a chicken feather, most clubs are arrears of wages, foreign aid adjustment fees, U23 policy, the team has no naming rights neutral brand, which made Chinese football once in the era of golden yuan football suddenly dropped to the freezing point, investors withdrew, sponsors withdrew, so the team owed wages, players gambling, coaches corruption formed a vicious circle. Croatian football population is up to hundreds of thousands, a strong football system and complete football youth training is the foundation of development, so Chinese football should not learn humbly?
I heard that the Spring Festival national football team will go to New Zealand and the United Arab Emirates for overseas training? Did the coach confirm it? Do you still let low-level domestic coaches serve as them? What is this huge budget? The level of domestic training can not keep up with the rhythm or is too rich, go to Croatia for intensive training, football there is very pure, play more games, what is the point of only training? The strength of the team is already so low, don't go through the back door don't have a relationship, introduce more Croatian players, Croatian coaches, Chinese football bow their heads to learn, don't be pompous, engage in political performance football, maybe twenty years later we will have the opportunity to enter the World Cup, which is indeed thought-provoking!
