Wednesday will see a European Cup qualifier between Iceland and Portugal and Norway against Cyprus. For these two games, fans have different expectations and expectations.
The first is the match between Iceland and Portugal, which will be a matchup of strength and weakness, with Portugal worth a whopping 910 million euros compared to Iceland's 79.35 million euros. With that in mind, many would think that Portugal has a good chance of winning easily. However, as Iceland have improved over the past few years, they have actually become a pretty strong team capable of challenging any opponent. In addition, Iceland's victory in the last two European Nations Cup matches is a testament to their strength. Although Portugal have always performed well in the European Championships, they have only drawn 1-1 with Ukraine in their most recent match, so their mistakes cannot be ignored. Overall, although Portugal is stronger, Iceland is definitely not easy to give up and this match is destined to be a very fierce matchup.
The other match was Norway vs Cyprus, and the difference between the two teams was not huge. Norway have performed well at the European Championship in the past few years, but have only scored one point in this European Cup qualifier. Cyprus have been relatively poor in the last few years, but their draw against Armenia, who are more football-powered, in a recent friendly match is enough to prove that they are not inferior to Norway. Considering that there is not much difference in strength between the two teams, this match is bound to be full of suspense and challenges.
All in all, both races this week were full of fierce competition and uncertainty. While one team may be stronger than another, football is not won by strength, it relies on the skills and intelligence of its players. Both matches will be a passionate and challenging battle, which is exciting.
