The Chinese team and the Spanish team, the favorites to win the championship, qualified from the group with two consecutive wins at the same time, and both are likely to occupy the first place in the group, so whether it is the fans, the media, or the managers and players of both sides, they are all breathing a sigh of relief.

Of course, there are certain surprises......

For example, the Chinese team lost to Mexico in the final round, while Brazil

Because often the disparity in strength of the final is sure not to attract enough attention, as in the 2012-2013 Champions League final at the new Wembley Stadium, Valencia is two points better than Borussia Dortmund, and the final winner can be determined before the game has even begun.

What's the point of such a competition?

Therefore, many active fans believe that after the Chinese team and the Spanish team have won two consecutive group games, the FIFA senior management will try their best to ensure that the two teams occupy the top spot in the group, so that the two teams will face the other group runners-up and increase the chances of advancing to the final.

With the arrival of the third round of the 2013 Brazilian Confederations Cup, the focus of media attention is slowly on the focus of the group of death, because the Chinese team has won two consecutive games, while Mexico has lost two in a row, and the result of this game will not affect the prospects of the Chinese team, so those who follow the game also know the Chinese media and the local Mexican media.

And the focus is all on Italy and Brazil, because after the second round of the group, no matter how they are ranked according to the promotion rules, it is impossible to determine who is second and who is third, so FIFA has prepared an emergency plan, if the third round cannot be decided, then directly kick a penalty.

The game is about qualifying from the group, so this game is particularly important, and both Prandelli and Scolari have given their players a must-win order before the game, especially Brazil, who are playing at home, and they are not allowed to be eliminated from the Confederations Cup at home, otherwise they will be the focus of ridicule from the fans......

Prandelli seemed to have been prepared for the impatience of the Brazilian team, and in the face of the Brazilian team's indiscriminate bombardment, he insisted on putting on a rigid lineup, and all the players huddled in their own 30-meter defensive area, like a bus in front of the goal.

So the Brazilian fans in the stands were very unhappy, and as soon as the Italian team had the ball on the field, they erupted into huge boos, thus showing their jealousy and dissatisfaction with the Italian players on the field.

It is worth mentioning that Italian coach Prandelli was even scolded by Brazilian fans for being incomplete, but Prandelli, who was standing on the sidelines with his hands in his trouser pockets, did not care, in his cognition, as long as he could lead Italy to the knockout round, it would be a victory!

However, the sparkle of the star became the main picture of this game.

Neymar has rebounded strongly after leading the team to the Chinese team in the first round of the game, and his breakthrough with the ball on the left is very reasonable, breaking through when it is time to break through, and being unambiguous when it is time to pass.

When the game entered the last 35 minutes, Neymar used his super personal ability to break through to the penalty area on the left side, and then suddenly passed a comfortable inverted triangle pass, and the forward Oscar who followed up in time kept shooting, and the football drilled into the goal from Buffon's armpit, and Brazil took the lead!

Conceding the first goal on Brazilian soil means that Italy have no way back in the next game, and only by equalizing the score in the next game can they have a chance to qualify for the semi-finals.

As a result, the game became very spectacle, with both sides playing high and the score directly showing the efficiency of both teams' attacks.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the score was 4:3 and Brazil narrowly won.

Among them, the Brazilian genius Neymar scored a hat trick, and was the biggest contributor to the Brazilian team's victory over Italy to advance to the semi-finals of the Confederations Cup on home soil!

The other group game played at the same time also played a big score, but the score was a big win over Mexico, and the final score was 4:2, and striker Gao Lin scored a hat trick.

And the captain Ailo, who everyone is concerned about, scored a hat trick of assists, which means that Gao Lin's three goals are all from Ailo's assists.

Although Brazil beat Italy to reach the semi-finals of the Confederations Cup, there was still a lot of criticism in Brazil, except for the satisfactory 2-0 win over Mexico in the second round of the group, the other two games made the Brazilian media very unhappy.

As a champion, the most important problem to solve is defence, followed by attack, and the Brazil team, who have high expectations, have conceded seven goals against China and Italy.

It's really unbearable for uncles and aunts!

Had it not been for Neymar's hat-trick in the third round of the group, it would have been doubtful whether Brazil would have progressed to the semi-finals......

So the next day, the content of the Spanish media was ironic, and they attributed the Brazilian team's promotion to good luck.

Of course, they didn't forget to put a top hat on future Brazilian champion Neymar.

Brazil's narrow victory over Italy was because of Neymar's explosion, otherwise the suspense of promotion will be infinitely magnified.

On the same day, the two matches in Group B also had results, with Uruguay beating Oceania champions Tahiti 8-0 in the final round, while Nigeria lost 3-0 to Spain, so the other group in Group B was Uruguay, the Copa America champions.

At the same time, the semi-final opponents of the 2013 Brazilian Confederations Cup were also announced, with China facing Uruguay in the semi-finals and Spain facing hosts Brazil.

There is no doubt that the match between the hosts Brazil and Spain is the one that will catch the attention of the fans the most.

However, the match between China and Uruguay is also not lacking in the focus of fans, Uruguay have Valencia players in the team, striker Edinson Cavani and central defender Godin are the main players of Valencia.

They are familiar with Chinese captain Ailo and goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei, and at Liverpool, Wu Xi and Suarez are also Liverpool teammates, and in the past 2012-2013 season, according to the statistics of the European football authority CIES, Suarez's 33 goals in all competitions came from Wu Xi's direct assists......

So not long after the game ended, several people in the club began to use social networks to call for the lineup, Godin 'declared war' to the club captain Elloh, and Cavani Aite Wang Xiaolei, claiming that he must hit the ball into the goal he was guarding.

Wu Xi 'ridiculed' Suarez for not having his own assists, so he could only use a team like Tahiti to play with goal statistics......

Compared with the focus match between Brazil and Spain, the match between China and Uruguay is closer to a friendly match.
