After the group stage, the Germans can relax and prepare for the subsequent knockout round. The knockout round is different from the group stage. If you make a mistake, you will lose all your game. Read the book %hai %ge./The Germans' knockout round will be held on the 27th, and their opponent is England.

The World Cup knockout round officially began, with Uruguay against South Korea. The two teams met in the 1990 World Cup, and Uruguay defeated South Korea one-to-zero. In addition, the two teams fought four times in international A-level events, and Uruguay remained unbeaten with three wins and one draw. Uruguay continued to line up the trident of Cavani, Suarez and Fran, and Godin, who was rumored to be injured, continued to play. South Korea only made one adjustment, and Kim Jae-sung replaced forward Lian Ki-hoon and Park Ji-sung led the midfield.

After the start of the game, the South Korean team took the lead in attacking. Whether Park Ji-sung scored a goal or Park Joeyong's direct free kick was resolved by the Uruguayan goalkeeper.

In the eighth minute, Uruguay took the lead. Fran broke through on the left and passed the low pass. South Korean goalkeeper Zheng Chenglong fell to the ground to save the ball without touching the ball. The ball went to the back point. Suarez, who was unmarked, pushed the ball into the empty goal at a small angle from eight meters away from the goal, scored one-to-zero! This was Suarez's second consecutive game.

The scoring of Uruguay made Korean fans nervous. The Uruguayan's attacking power is very strong. It is quite difficult for the Koreans to advance to the quarterfinals, but the Koreans did not give up. They continued to attack and attack wildly. The Koreans' crazy offense finally paid off. The Koreans scored a goal shortly after the start of the second half.

In the 68th minute of this game, the South Korean team tied the score, Ji Chengyong's free kick from the left was hooked into the penalty area, Uruguayan defensive player Vitorino made a mistake in clearing the ball under the interference of Li Dongguo, and Li Qinglong headed the ball from seven meters away from the goal on the left side of the penalty area! One-to-one, this was Li Qinglong's second World Cup goal.

The Koreans scored an equalizer and their morale was high. They hoped to use their current morale to attack wildly and strive to win the game. The Koreans performed better in the subsequent games, and their physical advantages were also played out, but they still did not break through the Uruguayan goal. Instead, the Uruguayans completed the final kill with limited opportunities.

In the 80th minute, Uruguay scored again, and the right corner kick was taken. South Korea failed to clear the ball in time. Suarez got the ball from the left side of the penalty area. He cut inside and flashed out the shooting angle, and scored a long corner from the arc ball fifteen meters away! Two-to-one, Suarez's third World Cup goal helped Uruguay lead 2-1.

After the Uruguayan scored a goal, the Koreans attacked like crazy, but the Uruguayans did a good job in defense. In the end, the Koreans were eliminated from the quarterfinals, and Uruguay became the first team to enter the quarterfinals.

Next is the second game between Australia and the United States. Just five minutes into the game, the Australian national team opened the door to the United States. In the fifth minute, the two teams made a mistake in the midfield fighting for the ball, and the ball fell to Cahill's feet. These midfielders who were also well-known in the Premier League dribbled the ball to the edge of the penalty area in the middle and scored with a low left foot shot in the left corner. The first two fast goals in this World Cup were "made" by the United States.

The Australian immediately chose to retreat after scoring the goal, and Australia's physical advantage made the Americans very uncomfortable. However, in the second half, the Americans seized the opportunity. In the 61st minute of the game, Dempsey broke through Australian central defender Neal in the middle and broke into the penalty area. Moore blocked the side and knocked down Dempsey. The referee blew a whistle and awarded a penalty kick. Donovan played the right foot on the right side of the goal. The ball hit the inside of the right post and bounced into the net. Donovan made three consecutive games in the World Cup finals.

After the US team tied the score, they immediately launched a fierce attack and threatened the Australian team's goal many times. However, in the 93rd minute of the game, the Australian team's Kuwell passed the ball in the half. When Boca Negra crashed from the side, Holman took the ball off the chest and shot with his left foot from 13 meters on the left side of the penalty area. The Australian team defeated the US team in the last minute and entered the quarterfinals.

The next game is the match between the German national team and the English national team. The two teams have had many grudges in history. This time, the English-German battle attracted the attention of countless people.

Football is an extension of politics, because every duel between England and Argentina in the Battle of the Island of the Island, Maradona was born, so Maradona's "hand of God" was born. The reason why England and Germany fought to the death was due to political reasons. Britain has long pursued the "continental balance of power" policy. In order to maintain Britain's dominance in Europe, it relied on its own economic and military strength to restrain and compete with the powers of the European continent to prevent a country from dominating Europe. However, Germany has always wanted to unify Europe and establish a powerful empire since the Prussian era, so World War I and World War II broke out. The economic and military competition between Britain and Germany did not stop behind the war. Therefore, when it came to the football field, these two powerful countries tried their best to subdue their opponents in every game.

Similar to the historical origins of England and Germany, Britain and Germany also have difficult knots on the green field.

Although the two teams had a record of their first confrontation in 1930, in fact, the two countries formed a foul in 1938. On May 14, 1938, the two teams played a friendly match in Berlin, Germany. At that time, Hitler was intending to unify Europe and the whole world. The English government even instructed the players to let the game go to avoid angering the Nazi madmen. Although the English players were forced to salute the Nazi military before the game, the British did not give Hitler face at all and scored six goals in a rush, continuing the unbeaten record against Germany.

Many years later, England and Germany fought for the right to host the 1966 World Cup. In the end, the English defeated the German again - FIFA chose England, the birthplace of modern football, as a gift to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the FA. Coincidentally, the final of the 1966 World Cup was between England and Germany. The German who scored the first goal did not laugh to the end. The hat trick of England striker Hurst gave the Remitt Cup a fifth host.

Four years later, at the World Cup in Mexico, the Germans finally had the opportunity to take revenge. On June 14, 1970, England and Germany met in the quarter-finals. On the spot, the defending champion England team took a two-goal lead, but the tenacious Germans did not give up resistance and equalized the score within regular time. In the 108th minute, the "Bombard" Ged Muller scored the winning goal and completed the reversal.

In the 1990s, the winning of penalty kicks became the key word for the grudges between the two sides. In the 1990 World Cup semi-finals and the 1996 European Cup semi-finals, England and Germany evenly divided within 120 minutes, and they could only rely on penalty kicks to determine the outcome. In 1990, we remembered the tears of British Gascoin; in 1996, the proud image of the German Andy Mueller, who put his hands on his hips and stood up, is lingering in our memories.

In the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup qualifiers, England defeated Germany 5-1, creating the largest score difference in the history of the two teams' battles, further deepening the grudges. Now, England and Germany will continue the grudges in the World Cup.

This time, the Germans came with the intention of revenge, and the battle between England and Germany was a war.

Judging from the group stage, the performance of the German team is stronger than that of the England team. German tanks reused Khdira, Ozil, Gong Zheng and Neuer, which are the rising stars of German youth teams, and they are reborn overnight. Especially their good adaptability to "Enjoy the World" makes them widely optimistic before the English-Germany battle. Many fans believe that Germany will defeat England. But after the game against Ghana, Germany's injury problems are worrying. Löw said: "There is a problem with Jerome Boateng's back, the 'pig' Schweinsteiger's muscle problems, and Ozil also has some injuries. If the 'pig' is really absent, it is not good news for us."

In England, judging from the last performance, England's defense line is still very strong, and James who performs normally is reassuring. In terms of offense, Capello has made changes in the game against Algeria, imitating Tottenham's midfield frontcourt tactics and activates Defoe. Now England is like a successful car. Even if it encounters a German tank, if the opponent is not careful, it may pay the price.

Before the game arrived, both sides started a pre-match battle of verbalism.

"The game cannot always be perfect. What matters is not whether the players can play in the best form, but whether they work hard on the court." England midfielder Lampard said after the final round of the group stage.

This sentence can be understood as follows: the first or second in the group, England doesn't matter at all. "The important thing is that we have an extra day of rest, which is exactly what everyone needs most at the moment." Because if we qualify as the first in Group C, England will get an extra day of rest, so they value the time for rest, not the first and second. "When we play at our best, no team can stop us," Lampard said.

Coach Capello's view is similar to Lampard: "Our ultimate goal is to go further and compete with more powerful teams. It doesn't matter who (the opponent) is."

It can be seen that the entire England team is full of confidence. This is the best England team called by the English media and fans. They should go further and have more confidence as expected.

The Germans are extremely expecting the knockout round that is about to begin, especially the first opponent is England. "I think the performance of Germany in the match against England will be higher." As soon as the 8th-final match was released, German Football Association Chairman Zwanziger expressed his attitude at the first time. German team head coach Löwloff said cautiously: "This game is very special and will be a classic duel."

Privately, Loeff is confident in winning England. Although he politely stated that England is experienced and the stuttering performance in the group stage is "very normal"; England is a threatening opponent, and Rooney has extraordinary offensive ability and will pose a threat to the German team's defense. But Loeff is clear: "The German team is not only not afraid of knockout games, but is full of confidence. The game against Ghana has already accumulated experience."

Yes, the Germans have gained valuable experience in the match against Ghana. Now they are no longer afraid of any team. The Germans are here to win the championship. If there are still teams that are afraid, they will win the championship.

Defensive general Mertesak said: "We will watch the video carefully to study opponents. The next game is knockout matches, you need some luck, and you have to be very focused when playing against them. Their players are of high level and the next game is very important to both of us."

FIFA recently began to sell 1,000 tickets to the "English-German War" game. Fans can purchase these remaining tickets through the FIFA official website or the FIFA ticket center. It is said that these tickets will be sold soon.

At the same time, the 1,000 refundable tickets for the Mexican team against Argentina were also snatched away within fifteen minutes.

The English-German battle has attracted much attention, especially German fans and English fans. They are very excited about this game, but they can't wait.

German players are also very excited about this game, especially Gong Zheng, who is still arrogant. When interviewed by the media, he said: "We are looking forward to the next game. I am fully prepared. Our German team will definitely become the third team to enter the quarterfinals. We have already booked this quarterfinals. Friends from England, you should book a plane ticket to return home, otherwise you will be busy after the game."
