At this moment, the majority of Chinese fans are also sitting in front of the TV watching the lottery ceremony.

The Chinese team has participated in the World Cup three times in a row, from Asia to Europe to Africa, and maybe South America next time.

CCAV made a live report.

At the Cape Town International Convention and Exhibition Center in South Africa, representatives from 32 national teams from around the world appeared here. The Chinese national team coach Klauchen and the vice president of the Football Association attended the lottery ceremony.

The top 32 participating in this World Cup are first divided into 4 grades.

The first-level seed team includes host South Africa, defending champions Italy, Brazil, Spain, Germany, Argentina, England and the Netherlands.

The second-tier teams are from Asia, Oceania and North and Central America and the Caribbean, South Korea, Japan, North Korea, China, Mexico, United States, Honduras and New Zealand.

The third-level teams come from Africa and South America, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Nigeria, Ghana, Algeria, Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay.

The fourth-level teams are all from Europe, they are France, Portugal, Denmark, Switzerland, Serbia, Slovakia, Greece and Slovenia.

According to the drawing rules for grouping in the finals of this World Cup, except for European teams, teams on the same continent cannot be in the same group.

In addition, South Africa will definitely appear in the A1 position, while the remaining seven seed teams will enter the first position of the other seven groups.

The lottery will start from the first grade, in the order of Group A to Group H.

The second to fourth draw of the team will be divided into two steps, first draw the team, and then determine the specific rank of the team.

In addition, the third-grade team will start the principle of avoidance of Tongzhou during the draw.

The lottery ceremony was hosted by FIFA Secretary-General Walker and Oscar, South Africa native star Richard Theron.

Before the lottery began, there was about an hour of cultural performances and interviews with famous places. Former South African President Mandela sent a blessing to the World Cup through the big screen, which was quite touching. The appearance of the cute South Africa World Cup mascot also immediately enlivened the atmosphere.

Walker first affirmed the preparations for the World Cup in South Africa, and then he briefly introduced the lottery process. After the introduction, the lottery began, Ethiopian long-distance running star Gebrecila Sie, South Africa’s current national rugby team captain Schmidt, the first black player in South Africa’s history cricket team, Entini, South Africa’s national team Defender Booth, South African show star and England famous star Beckham became the draw guests.

The first team drawn was the first-ranked team. South Africa entered Group A without any suspense. After that, Argentina was drawn and they entered Group B. England was drawn third and entered Group C, while Germany entered Group D. The Netherlands was drawn for the fifth time and entered Group E. The defending champion Italy then entered Group F. Finally, Brazil entered Group G and Spain entered Group H.

"The Chinese team is going to play next. As the second-tier team is actually involuntarily, in fact the fourth-tier team is the most critical... France, Portugal, etc. are in the fourth gear. Of course, The third-tier African team is also terrifying."

Huang Jianxiang stretched his neck and became nervous. Actually speaking, the Asian team is in the second gear, the third gear African team and the South American team, and the fourth gear European team is the key to the group.

"A good signing means we can go further."

"Now look at Beckham's luck."

Immediately afterwards was the second-level team's draw.

Luck, sometimes it’s not true.

"China."

When Beckham first read the name of the Chinese team, Dong Fangzhuo and the Chinese fans in front of the TV were stunned for half a second, and then the mood became very complicated.

"Oh, host, and host. South Africa's paper strength is not strong, it is the weakest seed team, but South Africa has the advantage of hosting."

"I really don't know what to say..."

"Next is the third and fourth team."

In this way, the Chinese team entered the A2 position.

The second team to be drawn was South Korea, they entered the B3 position. After that, the United States was drawn into the C2 position, while Australia entered the D2 position. Japan was drawn for the fifth time, they entered the E3 position, while New Zealand entered the F3 position. The last two teams, North Korea entered the G2 position, Honduras entered the H3 position.

After the second grade lottery ends, the third grade lottery begins.

After the first two rounds, no one knows how strong or weak his team is.

Chinese fans began to hold their breath again. Chinese fans wanted to know which national team entered the A3 position.

The first to be drawn out was Nigeria, they entered the B2 position. Subsequently, Côte d’Ivoire was drawn into the G3 position. Algeria entered the C3 position and Uruguay entered the A3 position.

"Uruguay……"

"Why is it Uruguay?"

Chinese fans are obviously very dissatisfied with the appearance of opponents like Uruguay. How about changing to another teammate? With eight opponents, no opponent is weak!

Ghana was drawn for the fifth time, they entered the D4 position, and Cameroon entered the E4 position. Finally, Paraguay was drawn into the F2 position, and Chile entered the H4 position.

The final draw was the fourth draw of the team.

"The most critical time is here!"

"France, Portugal, Denmark, Switzerland, Serbia, Slovakia, Greece and Slovenia, which team is not easy to provoke, of course, it is best to draw Greece and Slovenia, these two teams are relatively weak, but Europe is not weak Brigade..."

"Hope not to get to France."

"France."

The first team to be drawn was France, they entered the A4 position!

"My grass!"

"Huang Jianxiang this mouth!"

"Beckham's luck!"

"Invincible, invincible."

"Eight teams, why is France, totally unacceptable, unacceptable..."

"You said it would be okay to smoke Uruguay. Actually, we also smoked France. This time the Chinese team played. The French team must be the first in the group. Uruguay is also very strong. Do South Africa and China play soy sauce?"

"No, no, no, the Chinese team is also very strong, why are they afraid of Uruguay? There is still great hope for the second team."

"calm down."

...

After that, Greece entered the B4 position. Slovenia entered the C4 position and Serbia drew into the D3 position. The fifth team to be drawn was Denmark, they entered the E2 position, and Slovakia entered the F4 position. Finally, Portugal entered the G4 position, while Switzerland entered the H2 position, and G formed the death group.

Attachment: Specific grouping of the 2010 South Africa World Cup finals

Group B: Argentina, Nigeria, South Korea, Greece

Group C: England, United States, Algeria, Slovenia

Group D: Germany, Mexico, Serbia, Ghana

Group H: Spain, Switzerland, Honduras, Chile

Then, CCAV5 immediately connected Dong Fangzhuo in front of the TV by telephone, and wanted to ask Dong Fangzhuo's thoughts.

Dong Fangzhuo said bluntly: "There is a game to play. Don't think that we are not opponents because of the strong French hand. Uruguay should be very vigilant. We are not traveling to South Africa."

"I feel that France’s affiliation determines whether there will be a group that will die in public opinion today. The French team’s entry into the host group has given the host a big blow. At present, South Africa is the weakest team in this group, which also leads to the entire group. One reason why the groupings are relatively average."

what?

Is South Africa the weakest?

Huang Jianxiang thought he had heard it wrong. Isn’t China the weakest?

"In fact, it's similar to the last World Cup. We have to get at least 4 points, and then better than the goal difference. With better luck, we can get 5 points."

Even Dong Fangzhuo started to score like ordinary fans. If it is 4 points, it is one win, one draw and one loss, and 5 points is one win and two draws.

Similar to Dong Fangzhuo's point of view, it is actually Ma Dexing, a reporter from the Sports Weekly:

"The biggest worry before was the French team. Maybe France will create a group of deaths, but it turned out to be contrary to expectations, and was assigned to group A. This time, the host South Africa was thoroughly played by the FIFA gangsters. In this way, South Africa's qualifying has become an extravagant hope, and a victory is considered good. The Chinese team must strive to compete with Uruguay."

Next, another very important guest on the line, Zhang Luzhang guided.

"Group A is difficult to play, to say that the "death group" should be the A group. In the afternoon interview, I said that the Chinese team may be the "death group." China is the strongest in this file, France The French team is the strongest in the team. The two teams meet together, plus the host South Africa. The three teams must have a fight if they want to appear. Uruguay plays a supporting role in this."

Zhang Lu's point of view is amazing!

Dong Fangzhuo, sitting in front of the TV, was stunned. Was Uruguay supporting? He remembers that it seems that Uruguay is the first qualifying group, France only got 1 point and the first one in vain?

Guidance Zhang, you must not wake up...

Dong Fangzhuo smiled and shook his head, everyone thought that France was the strongest and ignored the existence of Uruguay.

France relied on a handball goal to eliminate Ireland in overtime and reach the World Cup. Their strength is far less than everyone thinks.

Regarding France, in fact, before the draw, it caused widespread controversy.

Without becoming a seed team, French coach Domenech seemed calm. Before the draw ceremony, he seemed to have received some kind of hint or promise, always saying that he was very relaxed and would accept any draw result calmly. The result of the lottery also seems to confirm the existence of a certain kind of commitment. The "Team Daily" made a judgment as soon as possible. "The French team will be very happy to know the result~lightnovelpub.net~ Whether Henry will be suspended or not will be heated up, and people once thought that FIFA will impose sanctions or suppression on the French team in a certain situation to suppress the voice of some opponents. Putting the French team into the fourth grade is a compromise. One of the results. But in fact putting the French team in the group of any strong team is likely to lead to the death of the group, the interests of the strong team are not taken care of, and more strong teams may be eliminated earlier. Affects the attention of the late World Cup. So this compromise has appeared new changes, at the expense of the host’s interests, the French team did not enter the real "death group", almost all traditional strong teams have also received corresponding Take care.

After Henry's handball goal, the Irish were very dissatisfied. International football chairman Blatter also deliberately used Henry's handball to tease, ironically the Frenchman's qualification for the World Cup was somewhat unfair. In the previous mock lottery ceremony, there were also models who deliberately read the French sign as Ireland, and the French can be described as desperate.

Domenech won a lottery but it was not as easy as before. "We have played with them. These two games will also be very difficult. Everyone thinks that this lottery result is very good, maybe it will make us paralyzed, but they The technical and tactical level of the players are in the upper middle stream."

However, the French fans are happy and broken.

"Haha, this is a simple group. South Africa and the Chinese team can never pose a threat to France. Uruguay's strength is not very good. Whatever it is, France has won a good draw."

They forgot the 2006 World Cup quarter-finals. China just lost to France with a score of 2:3, instead of letting France easily win. Well, scars and pains, let alone, how to look, the Chinese team It seems to be more powerful than four years ago...
