How is the World Cup progressing? The reason for the World Cup upset has been found

The quarterfinals of the World Cup in South Africa are all produced, and the South American teams familiar with the climate continue to be strong, accounting for half of the eight teams, and there is a trend of four semi-finals accounting for three, while the big European countries in the World Cup are sad all over the continent, Maradona's "European shame" remarks At the same time, Hodgson, who led Fulham to create magic in the European League, also reluctantly summarized that "Europe suffered Waterloo".

European Sadness" and "Copa America", two homophonic and witty sums up the characteristics of this World Cup. As the two eternal forces in the World Cup, the confrontation between Europe and the Americas has never stopped and has been the theme of each edition. From the comparison of the number of World Cup venues, it can be seen that Europe and the Americas are the mainstream, and the occasional flashes in Africa and Asia are only "dark horses" and "miracles".

In 2002, outside of Asia, the World Cup once again came to the non-mainstream stage, and it was also the first time that it settled in the magical continent of Africa. As with the World Cup in Japan and South Korea, Europe, far from its doorstep, is once again in a collective slump. 13 teams made it to the round of 32, only 6 teams broke through from the group stage, and the traditional powerhouses France and Italy were at the bottom of their respective groups, such a shame has not been heard of since the birth of the World Cup; After the quarterfinals, only three European teams survived, one less than the unpopular Japan and South Korea World Cup, and three fewer than the last German World Cup; Aside from the performance factor, judging from the performance of a single game alone, European teams have also lost their former domineering, not only losing in the confrontation with South American teams, but also playing against Asia and Africa.

A World Cup has collectively suffered a downturn, and Europe has become a stepping stone to the creation of wonders in the magical continent.

There has never been a thing that can be in a dominant position forever, from the perspective of the law of development of things in the world, the European downturn is a phenomenon that will appear sooner or later, but this sudden collective downturn is bound to have some common reasons.

Hello dear, glad for your question. The reasons for the upset of the World Cup are climatic reasons and underestimating the enemy. This is the first World Cup to be held in an Arab country, and the first World Cup to be held in November, the northern hemisphere winter.

In the past, the World Cup was usually held in May, June and July. However, Qatar's summers are hot, humid and bright, with temperatures reaching over 40. This is too hot for players who have to run for 90 minutes, and there is even a risk of heat stroke, which is obviously not suitable for high-intensity sports events.

It is also because of this that the main reason why FIFA finally decided that the Qatar World Cup will be held in winter is to take into account the local climate.
