Lin Hai Chat Ball Issue 16
Well, first of all, congratulations on another correct guess, haha!
Before the game between Spain and France, some people were optimistic about France. They based their historical battle results on the fact that France had never lost to Spain in a world series.
But history is all old history. Since Spain's strong rise in 2008, this is the first time the two teams have met, and the players have changed. What reference value does such a historical record have?
Spain is strong, while France is in a period of renewal and reconstruction, where the old and the new are replaced. It is clear at a glance who will win and who will lose.
This game also proved this very well. Facing Spain, France could only defend firmly and then wait for opportunities to counterattack.
The way of playing is correct. If we play against Spain now, that is, against Barcelona, we will definitely die miserably against them. Although he may be liked by "offensive football fundamentalists", he is disgraceful to his own supporters.
So everyone will choose defensive counterattack. Defensive counterattack at least still has a chance to win, but the probability of attacking is not even one in ten thousand.
However, teams that play defensive counterattacks have high requirements for the success rate of counterattacks. Mourinho and Real Madrid have done this very well. Look at the game they defeated Barcelona 2:1 at Camp Nou for a typical example. After Sanchez scored, Real Madrid quickly used a counterattack, and Ronaldo scored the goal that sealed the victory.
Because efficient counterattacks can effectively destroy Barcelona's morale.
However, the French team's counterattack efficiency in this game was very poor. It cannot be said that they had no opportunities. They had many opportunities, but they failed to seize any of them.
In this way, losing to Spain is a matter of course.
Spain still uses their traditional style of play, passing the ball can make people fall asleep... but the effect is good. There are really only a handful of teams in today's football that can break their tactics.
The semi-finals were the Iberian Peninsula Derby. Although Portugal was on the rise, they ran into Spain. I don't think Portugal has enough ability to destroy Spain, so Spain may just go straight to the final.
If they meet Germany in the final, they may defend the European Cup. If it were Italy... then it would be hard to say...
Tomorrow's early morning match between England and Italy. I am optimistic about Italy. England's lineup is uneven and their state is unstable. There were many problems in the group stage, but they were just lucky...
Italy has a fine tradition. No matter how bad this team's performance is, as long as it can get through the group stage and enter the knockout rounds, it will be like a dragon entering the sea and it will have great potential.
So I think Italy can defeat England in the early morning game tomorrow and enter the semi-finals.
ps, last but not least, please give me monthly votes. Please give me monthly votes!

For the sake of my predictions on all three knockout matches being correct, please count your votes! !
