Colombia's national men's soccer team was founded in 1938, and it was the most glorious period of Colombian football in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Among the major teams in South America, it is second only to Uruguay, Brazil and Argentina. However, Colombia has achieved some good results in the World Cup and the Copa America. It has broken into the World Cup many times. The best result was the 20 14 World Cup in Brazil, and Colombia rose suddenly, winning three games in the group stage, defeating Uruguay, the runner-up of the last World Cup, and entering the quarter-finals. Colombia will continue to be on the offensive in this year's World Cup tour, but can Japan win the game?
192 1 year, Japan established the Football Association. At that time, it was also called the Great Japan Cuju Association, which was later renamed. 1929 joined FIFA and developed quite rapidly. Since the 1990s, the level of Japanese football has advanced by leaps and bounds and won the first medal in the Japan 1992 Asian Cup. Asian Cup in Lebanon in 2000, Asian Cup in China in 2004, Asian Cup in Qatar in 201kloc-0, * * * won the championship four times. It can be said that the Japanese football team has won the most championships in the history of the Asian Cup. Regarding the World Cup, Japan has entered the World Cup finals five times before. Although it is not as good as the American and European teams, it is also a very representative team in Asia.
2. History of the team
Under the strong pressure of Uruguay, Brazil and Argentina in South America, Colombia's achievements in the World Cup and the America's Cup are not very outstanding. 1990 World Cup in Italy, Colombia broke into the World Cup 16 with many excellent players. At the 20 14 World Cup in Brazil, Colombia once again created a miracle, winning three games in the group stage, beating Uruguay, the runner-up of the last World Cup, to enter the quarter-finals, creating the best result in the World Cup and winning the Fair Play Award of the 20 14 World Cup. The best result of the America's Cup competition is also the 200 1 America's Cup champion.
The Japanese team made great achievements in the Asian Games, and won the final championship in 1992 Japan Asian Cup, 2000 Lebanese Asian Cup, 2004 China Asian Cup and 20 165438 Qatar Asian Cup respectively. Won the laurels in 1992 China Dynasty Cup, 1995 Hong Kong Dynasty Cup, 1998 Japanese Dynasty Cup and 20 13 Korean East Asia Cup. Although they are small countries, their love for football is really much stronger than ours. China football team should also reflect. Why can't it compare with the Japanese team that our football circles scoff at?
3. Team lineup
Colombia once again reached the World Cup finals. However, this is not a real victory. The Colombian side announced the list of 23 players, among which Bayern star J Ronaldo and Monaco star Fa Erkao are the main players. Their competition experience is quite rich, but Moreno, the captain of Shanghai Greenland Shenhua in this Super League, is not on the list. Former player Farab was unfortunately injured before the game and was unable to participate in this World Cup, so the team recruited farid Diaz of Paraguayan League to play for Colombian team, and the overall lineup was also carefully arranged.
Half a year ago, the Japanese team temporarily changed coaches, which will definitely have some impact on the performance of the players, but fortunately, they finally got the qualification for the World Cup finals in Russia. Nishino Lang, who used to be an excellent football player, turned the Japanese team into a team with an average age of over 28. Nishino Lang once led the team and achieved good results. Can this glory continue this time? Can Japan adapt to the new tactics quickly after changing coaches? The performance of this Asian classic team is worth looking forward to and learning.
Colombia is a strong team in South America, and Japan is also a representative of Asian football. They are in Group H with Poland and Ghana. The odds of Japan qualifying are 3.00, and Colombia is 1.36. This contrast obviously makes us think that Colombia is the number one favorite. I have to say that the football strength in Asia is not comparable to that in the United States. Although the opponent is not a strong team like Brazil and Argentina, Colombia is more than enough to deal with the Japanese team, so he is more likely to play than the Japanese team. Can Japan perform a miracle to win Colombia today?
