Finally Portugal and Poland managed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, both countries deserved to qualify after defeating their respective opponents.
For Portugal as predicted by many people they managed to beat North Macedonia convincingly, since the first half Portugal have put pressure and
created many chances. If Portugal can play more calmly and not in a hurry when in the opponent's penalty box. Portugal should be able to create more
than two goals, there was one opportunity from Ronaldo whose kick was slightly off to the side. Then there were several opportunities from Diogo Jota
who was still over the crossbar, most importantly Portugal proved that they could beat North Macedonia, which Italy failed to do. It's a shame that
north Macedonia's luck has run out, and seeing North Macedonia who only play defensively and rely on counterattacks, the North Macedonian strategy
was read by Portugal. Throughout the game North Macedonia didn't get much of the ball, so North Macedonia could only release 3 kicks, none of which
went on goal. North Macedonia has indeed lost in many ways and they don't deserve to go through.
To be honest the result of Poland's match against Sweden surprised me a bit, I think Sweden will manage to beat Poland like the last few meetings.
It turns out that Polish players are more creative and effective in building attacks, Poland runs a very good strategy. This was quite troublesome for
the Swedish defense, which even though Sweden had more possession of the ball, they made a lot of mistakes. It was proven that Poland's second goal
was created by the mistake of the Swedish defender who did not realize Zielinski's movement. Overall indeed Poland played a little better,
and indeed deserved more to qualify for the world cup. Quite sad to know Ibrahimovic failed to play in the last world cup, Ibrahimovic may decide
to retire from the Swedish national team after this defeat.
