Three days passed in a flash, and soon, time came on June 13, which was the day when Italy and Mexico were played. The result of this game will directly determine who can laugh to the end and get the qualification to advance to the top 16 of the World Cup!

Before the start of this match between Italy and Mexico, five groups had already ended all the matches. Now let me introduce the qualifying situation of these groups here.

The first thing to end was the battle in Group A. The French team, which had only one point in the first two games, drew and lost, only one point, was sent to the main players in this game with Denmark, and made a final try for a seat in the World Cup quarterfinals. However, judging from the fact that Lemayer arranged Zidane, whose injuries were not healed, also arranged for Zidane to start in this game, the French team's qualifying situation and the atmosphere in the team were indeed to a very serious level. Otherwise, Lemayer would definitely not let Zidane, who was in an unknown state, go on the field with injuries.

However, facing the dangerous qualifying situation and the steady Danes, Zidane, who was injured, was unable to make up for the situation. In the end, the French team, who was eager to get three points but was attacked twice by their opponents. The goals of Romerdal and Thomason helped Denmark in the post-Laudrup era successfully advance to the quarterfinals, and also forced the Gaul Rooster, who was regarded as one of the favorites to win the championship before the World Cup, to swallow the bitter fruit of three games in the group stage without scoring one goal, and only got one point.

The news that the French team returned home at the end of the World Cup group stage shocked countless fans. They did not expect that France, which has many stars such as Henry, Trezeguet and Vieira, would perform so unbearable. Although this was due to the accidental injury of the soul of Zidane, the team, it was a bit unfair to not even be able to win the World Cup new team like Senegal, Uruguay and Denmark.

What disappointed French fans the most was the new Premier League Golden Boot winner Thierry Henry, the striker who made the title of "King of Hebry" after transferring to Arsenal from Juventus not only failed to score a goal in the group stage, but was even kicked out of the field by the referee for a dangerous tackle move by the referee for a red card and hurriedly ended his second World Cup journey.

As France's arch rival in various senses, Germany, which has been living a hard life since the surprise of a Deluène Cup in England, finally got the chance to laugh at this neighbor. Because their performance in the World Cup this time is obviously much better than their opponents: With the goals of veteran Marco Bode and forward star Klose, the German team beat the African lion Cameroon 2-0 in the final game of the group, and advanced with Ireland with two wins and one draw. As for Saudi Arabia, which failed to score one goal but swallowed twelve bullets, if nothing unexpected happens, it will undoubtedly defeat competitors such as Tianchao and Slovenia, who are also likely to lose three consecutive times, and win the throne at the end of this World Cup ranking list.

There is nothing to say about the match between Group B and Group C. Spain and Brazil, the two traditional teams, locked in a qualifying place early, and finally advanced to the next round with a win of three games. Paraguay, led by Chilavit, and Turkey, who squeezed out Costa Rica with a goal difference, won two other qualifying places as the second in their respective groups. Before the World Cup, a new team in the World Cup, who claimed to "scoring a goal, scoring a point, and winning a game", realized the gap between them and international mainstream football, and ranked second to the bottom of the top 32 with only three goal difference advantages.

Group F, known as the Death Group, also scored the winner the day before Italy faced Mexico. Facing the dazzling one-to-one on the big screen of the stadium, Crespo, abandoned the team's main center in the qualifiers, Bielsa, who chose to believe that the old god of war Batistuta, led one of the favorites to win the championship, Argentina was eventually eliminated in the group stage with a record of one win, one draw and one loss, and watched Sweden and England, who had five points in three matches, joining forces to advance to the eighth finals.

In this way, after one of the favorites to win the championship was eliminated, another favorite to win the championship, Argentina, also bid farewell to the World Cup and went back to his hometown to fish in shame.

Now, it is the Italians' turn to make a decision, whether to go back to their hometown to fish with France and Argentines, or advance to the knockout stage with Spain and Brazil, it depends on the result of their duel with Mexico.

At 7:30 pm, in the Oita Stadium on Kyushu Island, Japan, in the locker room of the Italian national team, Zoff announced the Italian starting list of this game under the anticipation of a large group of players.

"Now I will announce the starting lineup tonight, and I hope you can stay calm in this process." It seems that this game will directly determine whether Italy can qualify for the qualifying. Zoff, who has always been serious, has become more cold at this time, which makes the Italian locker room more solemn. "We still adopt the 442 formation in this game. As for the starting eleven people, it is like this. The goalkeeper is Gianluigi Buffon, and the left back is..."

Listening to the names Zov said, the Italian internationals sat in their seats with joy or sorrow. The players who got the starting opportunity were naturally very happy. For example, Pirlo and Toti were all ready to contribute their strength to the team; while those players who missed the starting lineup felt a little disappointed. They were all internationals representing Italy in the World Cup. Who doesn’t want to get the attention of the head coach and show their style to people on this top stage?

"Wow! There are quite a lot of fans watching our game today!" After walking out of the player channel, Da Inzaghi first observed the situation around him, and then murmured to Vieri beside him, "Christian, it seems that the Football Association has had some effect on getting along with Japan over the years. Look, this place is almost becoming our home court in Italy."

Hearing Inzagi's murmuring, Vieri looked up and found that Pipo was right. Not only had most of the fans who arrived at the scene early, but among these fans, fans who supported the Italian side had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers and momentum!

"This is really...it seems we can't do anything about our lives today, Philip." Looking at the fans in the stands holding slogans and shouting slogans to support us, Vieri murmured to himself. He is quite emotional and does not want to disappoint these loyal fans, nor do he want to see Italy go home at the end of the group stage!
