Football: The king of midfield, Guardiola is crying with envy

Chapter 149

The reason why Norway is more like the Chinese team in Europe is that their ranking has also dropped after the expansion of the European quota for the European Cup and the World Cup.

There are 13 quotas for the 22 Qatar World Cup in Europe, and Norway's football level ranking should be 18th in the European region.

In the 26th US, Canada and Australia cycle, there are a total of 16 quotas, and Norway's football level ranking has dropped to 24th. . .

This is no different from the Chinese team participating in the top 18.

England's home stadium is Wembley Stadium, which can accommodate 90,000 people.

Today's eighth round of the European qualifiers also attracted the attention of countless fans.

Because this is a key battle for England's qualification, the tickets were sold out as soon as they went on sale.

Currently on the standings, England has 7 wins and 7 wins and 21 points.

Poland, the second place, has 15 points.

As long as England ensures that they continue to win this round, they will ignore the results of other opponents in the same group and qualify two rounds in advance!

In addition to England, Germany in Group J, Belgium in Group E and France in Group D have already confirmed their qualification.

In addition, Denmark in Group F has a very good situation to qualify. From this point of view, their performance in the semi-finals of the European Cup is well deserved.

The Wembley scene has become a white ocean. This is the home of the Three Lions that makes everyone tremble!

In the player tunnel, the players of both sides are ready.

Soboslai is chatting with Chen Chen.

Hungarians admire and worship Chen Chen very much. After all, it is rare to see a player who wins the European Cup at the age of 18 and plays at a phenomenal level!

Melo was not so fierce back then!

The 21-year-old Soboslai really wants to come to the Premier League. If Manchester City is willing, he can come to Manchester City to try.

But Manchester City no longer has a place for him.

With Chen Chen and De Bruyne starting together and Rodri being a stable midfielder, if Soboslai comes, it is estimated that he will spend most of his time on the bench.

So Chen Chen did not recruit Soboslai, but just said that there are several teams that are quite suitable for him.

For example, Liverpool, whose midfielders are relatively old, Chelsea, who likes to hoard players, and Tottenham, who are in urgent need of midfielders.

Arsenal's midfield structure is okay, Partey and Odegaard are both in their prime.

However, if Soboslai can come to Manchester City, Manchester City's average appearance will be raised a lot.

After all, he is a handsome Hungarian guy!

Soboslai's famous battle is the 2023 German Cup final. He scored a goal from a small angle. The Hungarian helped Leipzig Red Bull defeat Frankfurt and win the German Cup!

This is also the second major championship since Leipzig was founded!

Without talking for too long, the players on both sides gathered their moods and followed the referee out of the player tunnel.

"Dear viewers in front of the TV and the live studio! Good evening!"

"I am today's commentator Zhan Jun! The person next to me is Coach Zhang Lu!"

Zhang Lu coughed lightly,

"Hello everyone! Hello everyone! I am Zhang Lu!"

Zhan Jun nodded and continued to introduce,

"Today I bring you a match from the 8th round of the European Qualifiers for the World Cup Group I."

"The two teams are England and Hungary!"

"The two teams were quite friendly before the game. We can see that Chen Chen and Soboslai had an exchange in the player tunnel."

"In addition, Sterling also chatted with Gulacsi. The two were teammates during their time at Liverpool, but Gulacsi didn't stay at Liverpool for a long time, and was on loan most of the time."

"Today's game Attracted a lot of fans to watch the game. "

"For the Three Lions, as long as they win this game, they can advance to Qatar two rounds in advance!"

"For Hungary, harmony off the field is a harmonious matter off the field. It is related to the chance of qualifying. I believe Hungary will play 200% of its strength!"

"Hungary is actually under great pressure. In front of them, there are Poland and Albania. Even if they win, they have to look at the faces of the other two teams."

"To some extent, Marco Rossi's team can actually start preparing for 2026."

"Of course, we can prepare together."

"Ten minutes ago, the Chinese national football team lost 2-3 to Saudi Arabia. We have completely been eliminated from the top 12."

Zhan Jun sighed.

Zhang Lu also lost his usual laughter.

After two and a half seconds of silence, Coach Zhang took over and said,

"I hope that the national football team can be more prepared in the 2026 cycle!"

"Then let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides today."

Zhang Lu signaled Zhan Jun to start the introduction.

Zhan Jun took the cue card andIt was a few words of advertising slogans, and then got to the point.

"Hungary is in a 3421 formation."

"The forward is Freiburg striker Roland Szalai."

"Behind him, Schön and Soboslai are on both sides."

"Four midfielders, respectively, Zsolt Nagy, Schaefer, Adam Nagy and Nego."

"Three defenders, Adam Long in the middle, Otilo Szalai and Keczkes on both sides."

"The goalkeeper is Gulacsi."

"Southgate chose 433."

"Three forwards, Grealish, Harry Kane and Szczesny. "

"The three midfielders are Chen Chen, Rice and Foden."

"This arrangement is very innovative, but I don't know if Foden and Rice can hold up."

"The back line from left to right is Luke Shaw, Mings, Stones and Kyle Walker."

"The goalkeeper is still Pickford!"

"Now the players of both sides have stepped onto the field, and the battle is about to start!"

"Then let's follow the broadcast camera and look forward to this 90-minute competition together!"

Soon, the national anthem began to play.

After the performance, Zhan Jun began to discuss with Zhang Lu.

"Compared to the first round, both teams have made significant adjustments this time."

"England's adjustments are bigger."

"First, Abraham and Watkins got the chance, and then Ward-Prowse and Tomori also got Southgate's trust."

"In contrast, Bamford, Reece James and Bellingham, who entered the national team in September, did not enter the national team this time."

Zhang Lu nodded, and then he mentioned a point that no one paid close attention to,

"Interestingly, among England's starting eleven today, 6 are Manchester City players!"

"Manchester City players occupy half of the England national team's starting lineup!"

The fans who were watching the live broadcast were stunned, and then everyone started to argue.

Sterling, Grealish, Chen Chen, Foden, Stones and Kyle Walker!

It really is half of the country!
