World Cup 2015: Belgian-France will be semi-finals
"Mouth Waters - Which is a game that comes out of water."
What can be the semi-final match of Belgium and France on Tuesday in St. Petersburg? The BBC's former sports secretary and Britain's top football commentator Mihir Bose replied in a short sentence to this question.
"There was an outstanding match at the group stage at the start of time, between Portugal and Spain, I think today's match would be even better. If this match was a final match, then it would have been the best-ever final of the World Cup."
Why is he so expecting?
Mihir Bose's answer - France and Belgium are the two best teams of this World Cup.
"And the two teams following this strategy, they both will try to win in 90 minutes, attacking football, do not seem to play defensive."
Better to play better in semi-finals than in the World Cup final. There is no pressure like the final match in the semifinals. Players think that the final is just a step away, so all of them poured on them.
And now the battle between teams like France and Belgium has added to the semifinal attraction, Mihir Bose thinks.
Two teams in the attacking soccer game are some of the best footballers in the world.
France has young Kylian Mbapé, who has now been called as "New Cristiano Ronaldo" in football, and 'Goal Machine' by Antonio Greizman In the middle, Paul Pogba
On the other hand, the Belgian group is now called "Golden Generation." Kevin de Brianna, Romelu Lukaku, Edin Aja can ruin any group in the world. They showed them in two matches with Japan and Brazil.
'Everyone knows everyone'
At the same time, most of the players in these two teams know more about opponents' footballers. Many of them are team football players in football
For example, Lucik and Feleni of Belgium, Paul Pogbaar co-star of Manchester United Club, France's team men Mandy and Laporte in the club of Manchester United City Brian and Vincent's co-players.
Mihir Bose thinks that, since they all know almost everyone, who knows how to play, the match will be more interesting.
Still he will keep a team? "A little while France," his answer was.
Gave several reasons Bose.
First, France won the World Cup before - but Belgium never won, which has a psychological significance. "France's current coach Desmond played in the World Cup winning team, has experience."
Moreover, the adjective of the Golden Generation can create pressure among Belgians, which is not in France's force.
"Apart from that, the defense of Belgium is not as strong, if they can play together, Embap and Greigman pair, they can score."
Split football commentator
However, many analysts are seen in today's match as Belgium's main claimant for the World Cup.
Former England defender Rio Ferdinand now says, "The team's mentally questioned before the tournament was disappointing in Europe two years ago, but now they are able to give a fair answer to critics, how they lost their way to a Brazilian team, it is clear how much their teeth are now Sharp. "
The BBC's football commentator Pat Nevin says, "The possibility of winning the Belgian Cup is the highest ... most important for a team to be in the form of the main players of the team." Aja, De Brinea and Luqqu have shown that in a match with Brazil.
Dhaka's football commentator and Bangladesh national team's former coach AKM Maruful Haq told the BBC, "I would rather feel Belgium ahead of the semifinal on Tuesday (against France)."
Mr. Huq says that the way they beat the all-round team like Brazil, in the quarter-finals, Belgium is now the number one player of the title.
"Considering these five things, teams, coaches, defense, midfield and attack - Brazil had to give five out of five in the group stage, but in the last two games (matches against Japan and Brazil), Belgium will be given five to five."
Especially fascinated by Belgian coach Martinez. Right. "He showed outstanding discretion in applying the technique in the last two matches."
