Who is the defending champion of this World Cup, the defending champion of the World Cup

The 2006 World Cup returned to Europe and was held in Germany. This World Cup has become the farewell stage for many superstars, Zidane, Nedved, Figo and others left the World Cup stage with regrets, and Ronaldo left a total goal record when he said goodbye to the World Cup. Italy completed redemption after the "first goal, winning the championship for the fourth time" ......

Highlights of this World Cup Poster Mascot.

Best Player: Zinedine Zidane (France).

Top scorer: Klose (Germany) 5 goals.

World Cup winner: Italy.

In my opinion, the Brazilian team's technical versatility, the occasional flash of stars, the rigor and variety of tactical execution, the complete implementation of Dunga's pragmatism, the wonderful and perfect combination that can always be played in a small area in the frontcourt, the team is very united, and it is the only team in this tournament with a high demand for victory without off-field news. These were all decisive factors in Brazil's eventual victory.

Argentina, Portugal and Brazil choose one of the three, forehead dizziness.

Portugal, explosive. Wait and see!

Defending? That's Italy.

Ah, that's Brazil and Argentina.

I think Brazil has a big chance

The process of defending the World Cup champions is difficult.

France were in a standout performance at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, not only breaking the curse of the defending champions not qualifying from the group, but also becoming the second defending champions in 24 years to reach the final since Brazil in 1998 and have a chance to become the third team to win back-to-back World Cup titles after Italy and Brazil.

The defending champions' exit from the group stage is the most famous curse of the World Cup this century. After winning the championship in 1998, France came to the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan as the defending champions, but they were eliminated in the group stage against Senegal, Uruguay and Denmark due to team infighting, drawing 1 and losing 2, kicking off the curse.

In the 2010 World Cup, the defending champion Italy was in the same group as Paraguay, Slovakia and New Zealand, with 2 draws and 1 loss. In the 2014 World Cup, the defending champion Spain went out of the group stage with 1 win and 2 losses; In the 2018 World Cup, the defending champion Germany was defeated 2-0 by South Korea in the final round of the group stage and was eliminated at the bottom of the group.

In this World Cup, defending champions France broke the curse with a strong performance, winning two consecutive group stage games and advancing early. France went all the way to the final against Argentina, the first defending champion to do so after Brazil in 1998. Brazil won the championship in 1994 and finished runners-up in the 1998 World Cup after a 3-0 defeat to France.

Needless to say, France were eliminated in the 2002 group stage, and the 2002 champions, Brazil, were far from the final when they lost 1-0 to France in the 2006 World Cup 1 4 finals, despite having Ronaldo. Italy, the 2006 champions, had a rather poor run at the 2010 World Cup.

The 2010 champion Spain also failed to qualify for the 2014 World Cup, and the 2014 champion Germany finished bottom of the 2018 World Cup group, so the 2018 champion France was able to enter the World Cup finals for two consecutive years, which is indeed a very remarkable achievement. Their success was due to the elimination of disunity and the youthfulness of the squad.

The World Cup champions have defending.

Italy successfully defended the World Cup in 1958 and Brazil in 1962.

Qatar 2022 World Cup:

The 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar is the 22nd FIFA World Cup, which was held from November 20 to December 18, 2022 in eight stadiums in Qatar, the first time in history that it was held in Qatar and Middle Eastern countries, and the second time in Asia.

The World Cup has a title to defendChampionSuccessful.

Italy and Brazil have both successfully defended their titles. The World Cup is held every four years and is open to all FIFA member states (regions). On the one hand, there is a long time between the two editions, and on the other hand, the competition is fierce, so it is extremely difficult to successfully defend the title in the World Cup.

In the first 21 World Cups, there have only been two successful title defenses, namely the 1938 World Cup in France, Italy, and the 1962 Chile World Cup, Brazil successfully defended the title.

About the defending champions

Defending champion, English is defending champion, reigning champion, refers to an individual or group in a state of defending their own champion. Chinese means the champion of this event last year, and this time he is still participating in this event. If an individual or team wins the championship in this edition, then they will be "successfully defending" in the remaining competitions, and they will be crowned champions for the second time.

Words like "defending runner-up" and "defending runner-up" are sometimes seen on the Internet, but they are all wrong. The "crown" is the crown of the emperor. When the emperor is called the emperor, the master of ceremonies puts the crown on the monarch's head, which is called "coronation".

Later, the word was used in the event champion, which is to take the meaning of its king infiltrating wisdom. It is precisely because of the "crowning" when he won the championship for the first time that he "defended the title" when he participated in the second competition.

The teams that have successfully defended the FIFA World Cup title are Brazil and Italy. Italy defended its title twice in a row, in 1934 and 1938. At that time, the World Cup had just been established, and there were not many teams participating, and the situation was more than unbearable.

The World Cup has seen two teams successfully defend their titles. In 1938, the third World Cup, the second champion of the competition, Italy, won the championship again with a complete victory. In the sixth World Cup in 1958, the Brazilian team won the championship for the first time, and in the seventh World Cup in 1962, the Brazilian team once again defeated the crowd to win the championship.

The second FIFA World Cup in 1934 was played in a knockout format, with 16 teams competing against each other from the start. The Italian team at home defeated the United States, Spain, Austria and Czechoslovakia to win the championship with a complete victory, becoming the second team in the history of the World Cup after Uruguay.

The third World Cup was held in France in 1938 and was also played in a single-elimination format. Last year's champions Italy made it four wins in a row, beating Norway, France, Brazil and Hungary to become the first team in World Cup history to successfully defend their title.

In the fifties and sixties of the last century, it was the first period in the history of Brazilian football, and the Brazilian team won three of the four World Cups held between 1958 and 1970, which established the status of Brazil's "football kingdom".

The World Cup winner produces rules

Since 1998, the group stage has adopted a round-robin format, that is, each team has not played a spring match against the other three teams, and a win is worth three points, a draw is worth one point, and a loss is worth zero points.

The two teams with the highest points qualify for the round of 16, and if the number of points is the same, the round of 16 will be determined by goal difference.

After the round of 16 is produced, the knockout system will be adopted.

After the top 4 are generated, they will not be eliminated.

Two winning teams compete for the championship, and two losing teams compete for third place.
