Africa-Press – Angola. The fourth day of matches for the 2022 Qatar 2022 World Cup, which will be played today, features the debuts of the teams from Germany, holder of four titles, and Spain, winner of the competition in 2010, a competition held in Africa do Sul, the only one on African soil.
Germany, which enters the competition with the label of candidate for the title, faces at 11:00 am, at the Khalifa International Stadium, in Doha, its counterpart in Japan, counting for the first round of Group E.
After the failure in the last World Cup, held in Russia, Hans-Dieter Flick’s men will seek, once again, to lift the trophy and match Brazil, who hold five titles.
To do so, it is important that they start this competition on the right foot, which means beating the Japanese. Mannschaft has 13 appearances as semi-finalists and is the biggest holder of world medals with 12, four gold, four silver and four bronze.
Despite the renovation suffered, Mannschaft has the experience of Thomas Muller, Manuel Neur and Mario Gotze, to defeat the underrated Japan team, which will have Yuki Soma, Tanaka and Shuto Machino to counteract the offensive power of the Germans.
SPAIN IS FAVORITE
Still in the same group, at 2:00 pm, at the Al Thumama Stadium, in Doha, Spain’s selection will play against Costa Rica, which is little referenced, but which could provide a surprise, similarly to what happened in group C, in the duel Argentina – Saudi Arabia.
Filled with new and good talents, such as Gavi, Pedri and Ansu Fati, led by the experienced Busquete, Luís Henriques’ men, due to the positive performances in the last official matches, will try to clean up the bad image left in the last two World Cups.
