Players who have become the target of many big teams have again recorded their names on the scoreboard. But overall the game from the Netherlands didn't go very well, there were problems in their game I saw. If they keep showing like that I don't think they will be able to challenge for the World Cup title this time.
70 minutes have passed and I see Ecuador playing better than Louis Van Gaal's men. If so I think Ecuador deserved more to win in this game.
I never thought Netherlands were the favorites for the World Cup title at the moment so I wouldn't be surprised if they fell short in the last 16. I believe the Netherlands will reach the last 16, but if the opponent is as strong or even better then the Netherlands will lose.
In this match I think Ecuador played better in the second half, they scored goal and managed to complete their hopes of still having a better chance of qualifying for the last 16. The Netherlands and Ecuador currently have 4 points together, and these two teams only need to play their best in the next match to secure opportunities. The Netherlands benefited because it was only against Qatar, but not Senegal and Ecuador.
Well, Ecuador has really impressed me a lot, I did not expect Ecuador to have such a high performance, because in the South American qualifiers they had to win the last game because those 3 points were necessary for their qualification to this World Cup, but seeing that they have Given the stature of Holland, he deserves very good things, and it's not that Holland played badly, it's that they didn't let him play freely, at every moment they marked the Dutch very well, even so Holland for me is still a team strong enough to qualify and deserving of the world cup, only a couple of games have gone by, it remains to be seen how they continue to play from now on.
There is every possibility that Brazil will play the finals with France or England. The toughest future and the most interesting one in this world cup is the France and England fixture. Both countries have good finishers and beautiful players who are young and fast. This is especially their attacking lines. I am just imagining Mbappe, Giroud and Dembele facing Foden, Kane and Saka. Any of them stands a chance to survive the match. And anyone that survives it should prepare to meet Brazil at the finals.
Brazil's potential for the final is quite large. but the match against Croatia was not easy either. even before reaching the final, Brazil also had to meet either Argentina or the Netherlands. with such a short schedule, I hope Brazil has enough players to rotate. but maybe the trainer won't. because in the knockout stages, they have to keep performing optimally.
France vs Brazil final looks pretty good.
Well, I still wouldn't venture to say who can be the one who can accompany if Brazil passes or if Argentina passes, because they are in the same key, so it would be very hasty, because if this turns out to be quite relevant, we could have a final announced as that of a Brazil vs. Argentina, and whoever wins goes to the final, so this is something that at least for us in South America is a pity, the representation arrives there, where Argentina was instead of England or one of those countries is likely, Now the most likely scenario is that it is a South American country vs. a European country, from what I have seen that it can happen. If so, I would like Portugal or Croatia to arrive.
