The European qualifiers continued with Group H breaking out as world No. 115 Kazakhstan staged a "let 2 to 3" play after trailing 2-0 to defeat world No. 18 Denmark 3-2. The world ranking gap between the two teams is close to 100, with Kazakhstan securing an epic win at home, compared to a humiliating 1-2 defeat to world No. 105 New Zealand in a friendly.
Denmark quickly took the initiative after the opening kick-off, with talented centre-forward Holland scoring twice in the first 36 minutes to give his side a 2-0 lead away from home. Holland's goal was a solo knife and a push from inside the box, and the 20-year-old Danish centre-forward was in hot form, scoring five goals in two appearances for his country in the European qualifiers. Holland has become Serie A's biggest discovery this season, scoring eight goals in 25 games.
It was thought that Denmark would easily take three points away from home, but Kazakhstan did not give up. In the 73rd minute, Zaindinov scored a penalty to blow the counter-attack, and in the 86th minute, Takibogen's Super World Wave equalized the score, and three minutes later Embetov headed another goal, Kazakhstan scored three goals in 16 minutes, and finally beat Denmark 3-2 to complete the epic comeback.
Kazakhstan is a Central Asian country, in 2002 they "left Asia and entered Europe", chose to join UEFA, their football level has made great progress in the past 20 years, although they have not yet entered the European Cup and the World Cup, but often have the opportunity to play with European strong teams, over time quantitative changes will cause qualitative changes, for example, in the last European preliminary round Kazakhstan beat Scotland and San Marino to get 10 points, home is their advantage.
Seeing Kazakhstan complete the good show of "let 2 chase 3", Chinese fans soured. The national football team is ranked 80th in the world, more than 30 higher than Kazakhstan, but the national football team lost 1-2 against New Zealand, while Kazakhstan was able to beat Denmark 3-2. You know, on the German "Transfer Market", Kazakhstan's whole team is only worth 19 million euros, while Denmark is as high as 262 million euros, Kazakhstan played a bloody battle in the European preliminaries, which is undoubtedly the envy of many Chinese fans, when will our national football team be able to defeat the world's strong teams again?
