2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers

[Smack That Ace]

I am quite amazed with the performance of Qatar when I browsed through their previous matches played against quite a number of big teams and they are able to avoid being defeated in those matches. But since those results are being played in friendly matches, I do not really feel confident about Qatar being able to launch any surprise victory in Group A despite being the host nation.

The World Cup is a huge tournament which are only held once in four years time, and the players of Ecuador had fought so hard in order to qualify for this tournament, I guess they will surely put in their best effort in this upcoming match against Qatar in Group A today, I think Ecuador will be able to beat the host nation Qatar.

The Ecuadorian team won the match by a score of 2-0. The match was a memorable one.
But something interesting was that I found out from Twitter that Valencia, the captain of Ecuador, was faking the injury so that he does not have to get arrested because of the unpaid child support.
As he was being taken to the ambulance, police members were chasing him.


Anyway, this match was a good one, and I think if the mistake was not made by the Qatar goalkeeper, the outcome of this match could have been different.

In case anyone wonders, that video is not from the Qatar - Ecuador match. It's from a 2016 match between Chile and Ecuador. You can even read the signs of the stadium in Spanish (Salida/Exit).

oh booy!!

Honestly, it seems like I have misinformed you on my part. We live in a world where social media is absolutely crazy these days. And it's easy to see something and believe it. There are also people who are willing to do anything to get views for their videos. As far as I am concerned, it was my fault. It would have been helpful if I had looked into it a little further.

In addition, I do agree that this is not from the Qatar World Cup,2022. On October 7th, 2016, this incident took place. There was a 3-0 win for Ecuador against Chile in that match.


Thank you

The world cup has officially started. The host Qatar lost. Ecuador won 2-0 with goals from their captain Enner Valencia. The star of Fenerbahce was signaling with the goals he scored this season. He also became the star of the first match in the world cup and proved to the world his great performance this season.

Ecuador has impressive start of this world cup specially after too many rumors which were circulating in media that Qatari officials offer them bribe for losing match now these are just crap media masala for creating controversies in this event because too many haters are also involved in this all which are not happy first Muslim country is going to host mega event like this but things looking very good which can create good fun for all fans even now Qatari authorities again put hard ban on alcohol and few other things which were supposed to be settled before the event.

After having first match performance now I have feeling Ecuador is surely going to be having good chance for qualifying into next round because their performance against host nation was amazing, and they can do better in next two games against Senegal and Netherlands.

[borovichok]

England will be playing their first match today,and I have a feeling that Southgate will make lot of squad mistake today,but if I can advise him on what to do, first he should forget about the talk of Harry Maguire usually plays well at the national team, he should just start with stone and Eric Dier/Coady, Philip has not play lot of games at Manchester City this season yet to merit starting but the last few matches he played before the break was outstanding performances,so he  can still pair with Declan Rice, at the front sterling should always start with Harry Kane,the other option in the front three should be cover with either Saka,Phil foden, or rashford.

If Argentina and Portugal play the final of the World Cup in Qatar, it will be the history of history. Because both teams have the two best players in the world, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. It is surprising to think about that imaginary final game. Although the chances of this happening are very low, it wouldn't be bad if it happened.

Even every thing is possible because it's all about game and performance but in realistic I have not agreed with this because for me Argentina can go, but Portugal is surely not capable of having place into last two because most chances they could be out of the tournament before last four matches because we have better quality teams in this event which are had realistically better chances and quality which is needed for the going into last two position.

Argentina is currently complete package but Portugal which was having some problems in last few matches of UEFA Nations League with lost against Spain and Switzerland is still needed improvement if they want to go into final for their star player Ronaldo alone he can't do things like this in this event.

[Captain Corporate]

Glad to see people agree with me that it would be amazing to see those two teams at the finals, and Ronaldo even said he would retire if he won such a game. However, we do agree that even though Portugal has a very easy group, the yare not good enough to beat most high-level teams, like what if they face Brazil next? THe only chance would be Argentina being the better team, would face some harder teams, and harder teams would face each other, like Brazil beats England and Argentina beats France, and then Argentina beats Brazil, meanwhile Portugal ends up not beating any big teams like that and eventually they face each other, that is the only possibility and that possibility is not impossible, it could happen.

[Inwestour]

They never said they will officially retire but they will have a certain age that won't give them the chance to shine again but I do hope we will see the best from them as well because both Cr7 and LM10 deserve to win the World Cup. Regarding both of them making the finals...uhm , sounds great , sounds like the perfect final but on same time, I'm gonna keep it realistic for now and Brasil is really a force that looks unbeatable right now.

This will be the last World Cup for both players, but it not means that we should expect a better game from them. Ronaldo is not in the best shape and I don't expect him to start playing better than he did in Manchester United. Messi seems in great shape now and this will be a big plus for Argentina, I see that many people expect good results from Argentina, but I still can’t understand who can be the favorite at this World Cup, for now waiting for the results of the first matches.

Argentina team is very strong, all the players in the team are more confident this time and they will play desperately to win the World Cup title. Also we all hope that since this is Messi's last World Cup Messi's foot magic will impress us all this time.

Today Group A match day, Senegal vs Netherlands. Group A already played 1 matches and Ecuador won the match Qatar lost the point. Today big team Netherlands vs Senegal match.I think Netherlands will win today match and They will go the table topper. My prediction goes to Netherlands and Ecuador will be qualify in next round.

[Slow death]

England 1 - 0 Iran

man i bet on england, even though they are playing with all their best players still haven't managed to score at least 1 goal, honestly this england is letting me down, i hope i don't lose money for having bet on them, at this rate if those guys from iran score goal so the worst that could happen would be for england to draw and i would lose money, i'm really regretting having bet on england



for the next game between senegal against netherlands i bet that netherlands will win the game, i know that senegal also play well, but they won't have their best player which is saudi mane, so i assume that their confidence can be one little disturbed, also the netherlands have good players who can win this game. i hope holland wins

edit: while i was taking print screen in england scored 1 goal

about who can pass to another phase i would say that netherlands could even be the favorite if they win in today's game, but senegal has the power to beat ecuador and qatar so in my opinion senegal and netherlands can pass to another phase, ecuador played against an extremely weak team and only managed to score 2 goals, 1 of which was thanks to the penalty, senegal can beat ecuador

England is now winning 3 - 0 at half time.

It's a huge difference in the field,  England will probably end up scoring more in the second half.

The passes and the ball control of the English players is just great. There's no chance for Iran to be honest.

[Gosgosking]

Argentina vs Saudi Arabia

In Argentina their are many quality players, Messi is a top player in Argentina. Argentina facing Saudi Arabia will be an interesting game for Argentina . This will be the first win for Argentina in the world cup.

Indeed, England should have won a lot today because English players are players who are highly trained and have unusual talents, so ball control and ball possession on the field are more dominantly held by English players and I think in the second half England will be added the number of goals again against Iran. And if Iran is not able to reply to several goals against England, then Iran's match today will end very sadly.

[nullama]

So in the end England decided not to wear the anti discrimination one love armband because FIFA said the captains wearing it would get a yellow card

The captains of England, Wales, Belgium, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands will not wear the OneLove anti-discrimination armband in their World Cup opening games after confirmation that their captains would be given yellow cards if they took part in the initiative.

Although the armband from the English captian does say "No Discrimination"

[Alisha-k]

Iran made three substitution just has the second half began but i am yet to see any improvement in their quality of play. England still has the possession. The most annoying part of the game is the fact that Iran aren't creating chances at all at least if the have created good chances they would have had attempts but from the look of things England is walking away with a clean sheet against Iran.

Bukayo Saka's goal added to the score for England, making 4 goals for England, Dribbling and well-measured kicks made the Iranian defenders unable to withstand the attack from Bukayo Saka,
Iran Goalkeeper also could not reach the ball from his measured kick.

Totally agree with your opinion. Even more amazing, Bellingham's goal was the opener for The Three Lions and was a very impressive thing for the 19-year-old footballer,
and put him on England's all-time list of World Cup goalscorers, and in second place, after Michael Owen.

[Slow death]

England 6 - 2 Iran

 

when this game started i thought it would be a low goals game i even thought that england would draw against iran, but after the 3 goals i started to think that iran would be massacred and that's what happened, they conceded 6 goals, it looks like there were no iranian players on the field, definitely england has good players, but it's very strange that kane didn't manage to score at least 1 goal, that way he won't have a chance to be the best scorer in the world cup, this one it was his best chance of having managed to score a lot of goals, this proves that kane will not be the best scorer of this world cup

Argentina vs Saudi Arabia

In Argentina their are many quality players, Messi is a top player in Argentina. Argentina facing Saudi Arabia will be an interesting game for Argentina . This will be the first win for Argentina in the world cup.

I agree with you, as a fan of Argentina I'm rooting for Argentina and for tomorrow's game I bet on Argentina, I hope they manage to win tomorrow's game, the opponent doesn't seem to be a very strong opponent, so Argentina has a better chance of seeing tomorrow's game and messi also has a good chance of scoring tomorrow if he wants to be the top scorer of this world cup

why the hell did fifa choose this country to organize the world cup? they could have seen that this was a country with twisted laws and a political system that is more like dictatorship, honestly all the time these guys from qatar are banning something, this is the worst cup in the world, I keep asking myself what is missing for them to ban ? they already banned everything that was normal, but we will see something else that they will ban

Today Group A match day, Senegal vs Netherlands. Group A already played 1 matches and Ecuador won the match Qatar lost the point. Today big team Netherlands vs Senegal match.I think Netherlands will win today match and They will go the table topper. My prediction goes to Netherlands and Ecuador will be qualify in next round.

The Netherlands won this game, even though they had to work hard. unfortunately, without Sadio Mane, Senegal's sharpness is greatly reduced. in the end, Senegal had to be willing to be defeated by the Netherlands with a score of 0-2. and yes, the Netherlands currently tops group A provisionally.

However, I have different predictions with you. at the meeting later between the Netherlands vs Ecuador, the Netherlands will again get full points. in other words, Ecuador will be conquered by the Netherlands and Senegal will win over Qatar.
so the struggle for runners up, will bring together Ecuador vs Senegal, where in the match it looks like Senegal will overthrow Ecuador and accompany the Netherlands to qualify for the next round.
