Will Japan advance to the round of 16 and why did Japan stop in the round of 16?

Little Japan will die, and the Chinese will rise up.

Little Japan is waiting to die.

I will destroy it.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's already in.

Japan won 1 and lost 1, accumulated 3 points, and the goal difference was 0. Denmark won 1 and lost 1, accumulated 3 points and had a goal difference of -1.

In the last battle, there was only one way for Huashan in front of the Danish team, and they defeated the Japanese team to qualify. Otherwise, even if it is a draw, Japan will eliminate Denmark by virtue of goal difference. Of course, for Japan, as long as they can hold on to a draw, they can narrow past Denmark and the Netherlands to qualify.

In a contest in the finals of the World Cup Tongyi 1 8, South Korea lost 1-4 to Brazil and missed the quarterfinals. Before the start of this game, Japan had been eliminated due to a penalty shoot-out defeat to Croatia, and Australia had lost 1-2 to Argentina, so all the AFC teams that advanced to the knockout stage have been eliminated.

Three teams entered the round of 16, the group stage surprises continued, the overall results are gratifying, it can be seen that the lower limit of Asian teams is improving, but all stopped in the quarterfinals, it seems that it is still very difficult to raise the upper limit. Half of the players of the South Korean team have Asian league players, half of them have European league players, and the personnel structure has basically remained unchanged for more than ten years, and there is a certain competitiveness in the face of the world's second-rate teams, but the gap in the face of first-class teams is still not small.

Japan - just one step away from perfection, before the trip, the Japanese team set the goal of the top 8; The reason why it is the top 8 is mainly because the Japanese team's previous best result was the round of 16 three times, and they wanted to rewrite history, but history still failed to rewrite, and they stopped in the round of 16 for the fourth time. Objectively speaking, on the world's highest level of competition, the physical fitness of the yellow race has not yet reached the point where they can maintain the intensity of 90 minutes or even 120 minutes while opening up the first-class teams in Europe and the United States.

Therefore, in this World Cup match, Mori Hoichi used the strategy of Taji horse racing many times, and finally gave a record of reversing the former world champions Germany and Spain, losing to the traditional North and Central American powerhouse Costa Rica, and losing to the last runner-up Croatia in a penalty shootout.

It can be said that Japan is really one step away from perfecting and completing its goal of competing in the World Cup this time. The ceiling of Asian football may really have to be explored by the Japanese team.

In the early hours of this morning, Beijing time, the 2022 Qatar World Cup 1 8 finals ended the competition for two games. Japan lost 1:3 to Croatia on penalties and reached the round of 16 for the fourth time.

In the first half, Japan's Dairan Maeda took the lead to help Japan take the lead, and Perisic scored with a header in the second half to equalize the score. After that, neither side was able to find the back of the net, and after 90 minutes, the game went into extra time. In overtime.

Kaoru Mikasa's shot was blocked by Livakovic, and the final 120 minutes ended in a 1-1 draw and the game went into a brutal penalty shootout. Takumi Minamino, Kaoru Mikasa and Maya Yoshida saved their penalties one after another, and Japan ended up with a 1:1 penalty shootout

3 losses to Croatia. In the other match, Brazil defeated South Korea 4-1, and the "Samba Army" successfully advanced to the top 8.

Vinicius opened the scoring account for Brazil in the 6th minute, and in the 17th minute, Brazil won a penalty kick and Neymar, who had returned from injury, scored in quick succession, and then Richarlison and Paqueta scored in succession to extend the lead to four goals. In the second half, South Korea's Baek Seung-ho scored from a distance to pull a goal back for South Korea. In the end, Brazil team 4:

1 defeated South Korea. Since then, all six Asian teams have been eliminated from this World Cup. At 23:00 on December 9, Beijing time

00.Croatia and Brazil will play each other in the 1 4 finals. World Cup Information Croatia team has played 7 extra games in the last 8 major tournaments In the early hours of this morning, Croatia and Japan were in regular time 1:

1 draw, the first extra time of this World Cup, followed by a penalty shoot-out, Croatia defeated Japan 3-1. Statistics show that since the Euro 2008 1 4 finals, Croatia have played extra-time in seven of the last eight major knockout games.

The only time Croatia didn't play extra time in those eight games was in the 2018 World Cup final, where they lost 4-2 to France in regulation time. Brazil has advanced to the quarterfinals of eight consecutive World Cups in the early hours of this morning, and Brazil 4:

1. Eliminated the South Korean team and advanced to the top 8, and the "Samba Army" has reached at least the top 8 in eight consecutive World Cups. Brazil are the only team that has never missed 22 World Cups, having won the tournament five times before. The last time they missed out on the quarter-finals was in 1990, when they lost to Argentina in the round of 16.

All Asian teams have been eliminated from the World Cup 1 8 finals in a match, South Korea lost 1:4 to Brazil and missed the quarterfinals. Before the start of this game, Japan lost to Croatia on penalties and was eliminated, plus Australia 1:

2 lost to Argentina, so far all the Asian teams that have advanced to the knockout stage of this World Cup have been eliminated. A total of 6 Asian teams entered the main tournament in this World Cup, with hosts Qatar, Iran and Saudi Arabia failing to advance from the group stage, while Australia, Japan and South Korea have stopped in the 1 8 finals.

The Japanese team is considered strong.

Japan qualified for the World Cup finals for the first time in 1998 and have not missed a World Cup since, with their best results coming in the round of 16 at the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan and the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The Japanese team, which is delicate in technology and pays attention to transmission control, has the advantage in Asia, but there is still a certain gap with the European and Latin American powerhouses.

Nearly half of the 23-man roster of the Japanese team participated in the 2014 World Cup, and Keisuke Honda, who was regarded as one of the promoters of the former head coach's dismissal, and veterans such as Shinji Kagawa and Shinji Okazaki, who have lost their peak form in recent years, were selected, while young players such as Shoya Nakajima, Takuma Asano, and Yosuke Ideguchi, who have performed well in international competitions recently, were not selected.

The average age of the 23 members of the Japanese team reached the age of 23, the highest in history. Nishino's move also caused many questions, and was described by the Japanese media as a lack of surprises and obliterating the growth of young people. Judging from the star lineup, the main goalkeeper of the Japanese team is still Eiji Kawashima, who plays for Metz in the French Ligue 1, and at the age of 35, he is the oldest player in the team and has a lot of experience in the competition.

In central midfield, veteran Makoto Hasebe, who has captained the side at the World Cup in South Africa twice, has played in two World Cups and two Asian Cups, and the 34-year-old plays as a central defender in a back three and a back four with Hotaru Yamaguchi or Shota Oshima. Shinji Kagawa, who has played for Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund, wore the number 10 shirt for the second time at the World Cup and will play in the midfield position.

Another midfielder is Keisuke Honda, the tactical core of the Japanese team in the previous two World Cups. Up front, the lone arrow striker could be played by Yuya Osako or Yoshiki Muto, who plays in the Bundesliga, and veteran Shinji Okazaki could be used as a substitute after not playing well against Ghana. In the last World Cup in Brazil, more than 700 fans saw off the Japanese team at the airport before the trip, but this time there were only 150 people.

Japanese media believe that there is a general lack of confidence in the prospects of the national team to participate in the World Cup in Russia, but on the other hand, "the lower the expectation, the greater the joy". Just like in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Japan lost the warm-up match, but eventually advanced to the round of 16, and 4,200 people returned to the airport to greet them. Whether the Japanese team can "upset" and surprise the fans still needs more efforts.

The three AFC teams reached the round of 16 and made history in the most memorable scene.

Morocco finished fourth, making African football history. Although the host Qatar team has a poor record, it has promoted football at all levels of society by hosting the World Cup, showing the world its traditional culture and economic strength, and allowing the world to learn more about the Middle East.

Although it is absent from the World Cup again, Chinese football should still have confidence in breaking into the World Cup finals again. Chinese football should fully study and learn from the enlightenment brought by the Qatar World Cup, follow the essential laws of football, grasp the most cutting-edge "technical and tactical vane", take the league as the cornerstone and youth training as the starting point, and lay a solid foundation and create opportunities for entering the World Cup again and achieving sustainable development.

In this World Cup, three AFC teams from Japan, South Korea and Australia advanced to the round of 16, making history. Among them, the Japanese team lost to Croatia in a penalty shootout, and was only one step away from breaking into the quarterfinals and rewriting history. The Japanese team has participated in seven consecutive World Cups and reached the round of 16 for two consecutive years, and its stability continues to increase.

The 100-year plan and firm implementation of Japanese football should be a reference for us.

When summing up the experience and lessons of this World Cup, the Japanese media proposed to "pay more attention to the individual". The Nihon Keizai Shimbun quoted Japanese coach Hoichi Mori as saying before the announcement of the Japanese team's World Cup squad: "Team (coordination ability) and individual (ability), if I had to choose one or the other, I might choose the individual."

He explained that team ability is an advantage that is emphasized in various fields in Japan, but individual ability is even more indispensable for a team that has reached a certain level, and for a team with an extraordinary nature such as the national team.

Speaking after the World Cup, Mori said that returning to the club to be down-to-earth and working hard to improve themselves is the best way to strengthen the Japanese team – and he continued to emphasise improving the individual quality of the players.

After missing out on the knockout rounds of two consecutive World Cups, South Korea's progress to the round of 16 is a rare occasion for them, and they also defeated Portugal with set-piece tactics in the process, which is the reward for their support for players to stay abroad for many years.

One of the reasons why the Australian team entered the round of 16 after 16 years is that local coach Alexander-Arnold has received support from many parties, including the Australian Football Association, and excellent players from the local league have supported the national team.

The other three AFC teams all made it past the group stage, but there were some highlights, such as Saudi Arabia's tenacious fight and victory over Argentina.

Of the five African teams, Morocco made it to the last four, the most spectacular since an African team made their first World Cup appearance in 1934. It has both African physique and European qualities.
