It's over, the group stage of the 2012 Poland and Ukraine European Cup ended, and the quarterfinals were also produced. The two teams qualifying in the first group were the Czech Republic and Greece, the two teams qualifying in the second group were Germany and Portugal, the two teams qualifying in the third group were England and France, and the two teams qualifying in the fourth group were Spain and Italy.

In this way, the quarter-finals match situation also appeared, with the Czech Republic vs. Portugal, Germany vs. Greece, Spain vs. France, and England vs. Italy.

At this time, the Associated Press selected the best eleven players in the group stage of this European Cup, and Gong Zheng was listed.

The best team in this European Cup group stage is 442. Best goalkeeper Casillas, the Spanish goalkeeper defended his reputation as the "world's No. 1 goalkeeper" with many amazing saves. The Bullfighters encountered strong obstacles from Italy and Croatia in the group stage. If it weren't for Cassi's bravery, Spain would never have been the team with the least goals. He saved Mottan's powerful header in the first game and saved Rakitic's close-range header in the last game, can be regarded as the most exciting save in the group stage.

The four defenders are Selasi [Czech Republic], Ramosie [Spain], De Rossi [Italy] and Ram [Germany]. There is no need to mention Rams and Ram. These two guys are in excellent form this year and are one of the top defenders in the world today. There is no doubt that they were selected.

Although the Czech Republic's selection was unexpected, it was reasonable. The Czech right-back, who was humiliated by racism by Russian fans in the first game, proved his strength with his outstanding performance. After being suppressed by Al Shavin in the first game, Selasi's offensive ability in the last two games was commendable. His rapid breakthrough and cross on the right were important tools for Czech Republic to advance. Compared with French right-back De Bouche, German right-back Boateng and Croatian Serna, Selasi was able to withstand the pressure of racial discrimination and still had excellent performance on the court.

The selection of Italy's De Rossi is amazing. Of course, what is surprising is not the selection of De Rossi, but De Rossi's performance. Before, De Rossi was a midfielder. When the Italian head coach put De Rossi in the central defender position, he was questioned and ridiculed. However, De Rossi's performance in the central defender position was surprising.

In his first match against Spain, he was ordered to play as a central defender in the face of danger and quickly adapted to the system of three defenders and basically blocked Spain's offense; in the second match, De Rossi's performance was still outstanding; in the last match, he still performed well and escorted Pirlo well. De Rossi was able to be elected one of the best central defenders in the group stage with his tactical adaptability.

The four midfielders are Cristiano Ronaldo [Portugal], Schweinsteiger [Germany], Pirlo [Italy] and Iniesta [Spain].

Although Cristiano Ronaldo did not perform very well in the first game, in the next two games, Cristiano Ronaldo performed very well. In the second game, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal to help the team reverse the Denmark, and then scored two goals in the last game to help the team reverse the Netherlands, performing very well.

The other three also performed very well in the game. Schweinsteig not only gave two assists in the offense, but also played a key role in defense. Pirlo is the core and driving force of the Italian midfielder, and he also scored a beautiful free kick, let alone Iniesta. This guy has both goals and assists. What is the principle of being selected for the natural world?

The last best striker, these two are Gong Zheng [Germany] and Ibrahimovic [Sweden]. Among them, Gong Zheng is no surprise. This guy has scored five goals, ranking first in the scorer list, and has also helped the team win three consecutive victories. If he is not selected, no one dares to be selected.

The most controversial one is Ibrahimovic. Although the Swedish team was eliminated after the first two games, Ibrahimovic's performance in the group stage can still be called magical. As the core figure of the Swedish team, he supported the team's offense every game. In the first game against Ukraine, he scored first with a precise shot from the front point; in the second game, he used a scissors assist when he was behind, and the morale of the whole team was greatly boosted and almost reversed. In the last game, Ibrahimovic used an extraordinary volley to help the team open the door to victory.

His performance is indeed very good, but the performance of Denmark's Bentner seems to be more eye-catching, and the strength of the two teams seems to be more inferior, so everyone thinks that this position should belong to Bentner.

However, this guy Bentner was so evil. He made a mistake and was punished, so he was removed from the best team.

Poland and Ukraine's first game in the quarterfinals of the European Cup was the Czech Republic vs. Portugal, and these two teams first launched an impact on the semi-finals.

The Czech Republic is the first team in the history of the European Cup to qualify for the first place in the group with a loss-winning goal. The two sides confronted each of them eleven times in history, and each achieved four wins, three draws and four losses. In the last European Cup group stage, the Czech Republic lost to Portugal one-to-three. In the 1996 European Cup, the Czech Republic won Portugal in the quarter-finals and finally advanced to the finals.

The referee of the law enforcement game was England referee Howard Weber. At the beginning of the game, Portugal launched a fierce attack, and Cristiano Ronaldo's condition was getting better and better and better performance. It was difficult for the Czech team to withstand the fierce attack of the Portuguese national team.

In the 29th minute of this game, Portuguese midfielder Merreles suddenly made a long pass, and the football flew quickly to Cristiano Ronaldo who was inserted into the penalty area at high speed. The Czech defender Cardletz was next to Cristiano Ronaldo. Cristiano Ronaldo faced the incoming ball, stopped the ball directly with his chest and stopped the football in the middle. Cristiano Ronaldo quickly started and crossed Cardletz, facing the goalkeeper of the Czech team.

The fans of the Czech team were very nervous at the scene, while the fans of the Portuguese team were extremely happy and seemed to have expected to score a goal.

Bang! Cristiano Ronaldo swung his legs and hit the football hard. Cristiano Ronaldo shot from eight yards in front of the goal. The Czechs thought they were doomed. However, at this time, the ball, which was as anxious as lightning, hit the post of the goal.

Dang! A steel sound came, and the football hit the post of the goal and bounced out of the bottom line.

The Portuguese felt very regretful, while the Czechs breathed a sigh of relief. It was so dangerous just now. This was the best opportunity for Portugal in the first half. At the end of the first half, the two sides still fought to zero.

After the second half, the Portuguese national team's offense became more fierce, and it was difficult for the Czech team to have a chance to counterattack. Just three minutes after the second half, Portugal got a chance. Czech team's Schubsman made a foul on Cristiano Ronaldo, and Portugal got a free kick.

Cristiano Ronaldo was cautious in the hands of the Portuguese national team defenders, and the referee Howard Webber awarded a free kick again.

This time it was Cristiano Ronaldo who served. The guy took the elevator ball over the Czech team's defensive players and goalkeepers, but the football hit the post on the right side of the goal and bounced out of the bottom line.

Two posts, one side, Cristiano Ronaldo's luck today is a fortress. At this time, the Czechs were very nervous. Cristiano Ronaldo is in such a good state. The Czech team's current goal is to drag into the penalty shootout.

But the Portuguese did not accept it, and they continued to attack fiercely. In the 87th minute of the game, the Portuguese got a good chance.

After the Portuguese team passed the ball continuously in the midfield, Veroso in the midfield suddenly passed the football on the side. Moutinho on the side ran quickly to catch up with the football, and then directly made a cross from the right side. The football drew a wonderful arc in the air and circled into the Czech team's penalty area.

Portugal's forward Cristiano Ronaldo rushed out from behind Czech defensive player Gebreselasier in a wind and jumped to the top near the penalty spot.

Bang! Cristiano Ronaldo hit the football hard with his head, and the football flew into the Czech team's goal, one to zero, and Portugal led.

The final kill! After two hits the goal post, Cristiano Ronaldo finally tightened the ball to the Czech team's goal and defeated the Czech team.

One to zero, Portugal defeated the Czech team and became the first team to advance to the semi-finals. The next game was the German team against Greece.

In order to prepare for this game, the German team made sufficient preparations. In order to ensure the players' dietary safety and food taste, the rigorous Germans chose to bring chefs and ingredients from China. In addition, fences are set up around the five-star hotel nobilis hotel where the Germans stayed.

During the two days when the German team stayed at the Nobilis Hotel, even half of the street where the hotel is located was fenced by temporary fences. When vehicles enter and exit, the fence occasionally opens a "notch", but no one dares to "cross the thunder pool half a step", because the security personnel from the hotel and the German team will politely ask you to retreat to the "safety area".

Moreover, there are three to four security guards guarding all the door-sided locations in the nobilis hotel, and there are even more in some places. It can be seen that the rigorous German team has prepared a lot for this game.

Even journalists are difficult to pass, and security personnel do not allow journalists to enter the German team's hotel. If you are interviewing or not, except for the official press conference held by the German team, reporters can only interview German team players and head coaches at the training ground.

The German team's training is open to the public most of the time, so journalists and fans can see the German team's stars on the training ground. However, on this day, journalists and fans both discovered an unexpected situation.

The German team missed three players in training: Schweinsteiger, Ozil and Lars Bend. These three are recovering, but the official voice of the German team said that it will not affect the appearance of the match against Greece. It is worth noting that Ozil has been resting for two days without training. In this game, he has not reached the expected state, so he is also using this method to adjust.

In recent days, Ozil has been in a bad mood. German media are also hyping up the Turkish descendant's racial discrimination on Twitter. It is reported that Ozil has hired a lawyer to deal with the matter. At today's press conference, Lov supported Ozil, believing that he will explode in the upcoming game.

In fact, Löw's comfort to Ozil also affects the mood in the German team. Because in addition to Ozil, there are Spanish-born players like Gomez, Polish-born players like Podolsky, Tunisian players like Khdira, Ghanaian players like Boateng, and of course, Chinese players like Gong Zheng. Therefore, this issue is quite sensitive and has caused a lot of discussion in Germany.

These days, they have been affected by this problem, but this guy Gong Zheng is pretty good. After all, he has not faced such a situation once or twice. This guy has figured out a way. This guy performed very well in training, which made German fans very happy.
Chapter completed!
