However, at this time, the world's attention is focused on the southern tip of the earth. At noon on December 6, local time in Brazil, FIFA will hold the 2014 World Cup group draw ceremony in Salvador, Brazil.

The 32 teams that have already qualified for the World Cup are all on tenterhooks, because even the defending champion Spain or the new European champion Wales will have to wait and see how far they go in the World Cup.

What's more, the results of the World Cup draw will directly affect the excitement of more than half of the games. Next summer, fans all over the world will really depend on this "draw" to see whether they can enjoy watching football.

On December 3rd, local time in Brazil, the Brazilian World Cup Organizing Committee announced the team classification situation during the draw ceremony.

In a slightly different way from previous World Cups, FIFA has changed the draw plan. According to the avoidance principle of teams from the same regional football association, major media originally expected that the qualifying team with the lowest ranking in the European world, that is, the French team, would automatically be classified into the first tier of non-European teams. However, FIFA's official plan was changed to 9 European non-seeded teams that must first conduct an additional round of draws, and the drawn teams will enter the first tier of non-European teams. This "unlucky guy" who is drawn means that he will fall into the terrifying combination of "non-European seeded teams + European non-seeded teams + Asian/Central North American/Caribbean teams".

The French are of course very happy with this change, because they have gone from "definitely unlucky" to "1/9 likely to be unlucky".

The British can still remain calm about this because they have no expectations for the current England team.

The Italians didn't seem to be making much noise, because no matter who the opponent was, the Italian team only used one style of play, defensive counterattack.

But the Dutch can't sit still. The Dutch team, known as the "second team of the millennium", always tries to make a comeback in every World Cup. However, in the group stage, it collapses. How can that be done?

As soon as the Brazilian World Cup draw plan was announced, the Dutch Football Association expressed "very surprise" and asked FIFA to explain it.

On December 5, local time in Brazil, the Brazilian World Cup Organizing Committee announced the list of eight superstars who participated in the draw ceremony. Representing Brazil is former captain Cafu, representing Uruguay is legendary winger Archide Giggia, representing Argentina is Kempes, representing England is Hurst, representing Germany is Matthaus, representing Italy. It's Cannavaro, Zidane represents France, and Hierro represents Spain. These 8 players will be selected to play against each other in the group stage of the 2014 Brazil World Cup on December 6 together with FIFA Secretary General Valcke.

Originally, the President of Brazil had chosen Pele, the Italian football king, to serve as the host's guest in the draw, but it is said that the football king directly refused. According to the British "Daily Mail" report, Pele was afraid of harming his motherland.

A few days ago, Pele attended a brand's business event and told the media: "If the lottery I draw is not good for Brazil,

I would feel uncomfortable. "

A reporter ignorantly mentioned Pele's "crow's mouth", and the ball king immediately responded sarcastically: "I have won 5 world championships, 2 times with Santos, and 3 times with the Brazilian national team. My goals have exceeded 1,000, you reporters are right, I will be the broom star.”

With 188 days left before the opening game of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the group draw ceremony was held in a large white tent resembling an airplane hangar on the beachfront in Chauipi, a resort town about 56 miles from the host city of Salvador.

After the first theatrical performance, FIFA President Blatter and Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff took the stage together, and Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff proposed a minute of silence to pay tribute to Mandela again. .

Afterwards, Blatter and Rousseff delivered speeches. After their speeches, the two gave a highlight review of the past 19 World Cups through a video, in which a little boy became a guest.

After the short video was played, Spanish coach Del Bosque, who led his team to win the World Cup in South Africa in 2010, came on the field holding the championship trophy and returned the trophy that had been retained for three and a half years to FIFA.

Afterwards, the sexy and charming Vanessa Damata and the famous singer Alexander Pires took the stage to sing the song "1 to 0".

Immediately, the top 32 teams in the World Cup finals were "appeared" on the big screen in two parts, divided by their continents. During this period, Ronaldo, the ambassador of the 2014 Brazil World Cup, also took the stage to give a brief speech. He played three games from 1998 to 2006 Scoring 15 goals in the World Cup is still a World Cup record.

Ronaldo said: "It would be easier for me to score 15 goals in the World Cup finals than to help organize this World Cup, but I am very confident that we can host the best World Cup so far."

After Marta and Bebeto spoke, and the Brazilian World Cup mascot Freigu performed a samba dance, the Deborah Cook Dance Company presented a dynamic and passionate dance performance.

At 16:47 GMT on December 6, FIFA Secretary General Valcke took the stage to preside over the exciting draw ceremony.

Hurst (England), Kempes (Argentina), Cannavaro (Italy), Matthaus (Germany), Zidane (France), Hierro (Spain), Cafu (Brazil) and Gigi Asia (Uruguay) appeared on stage one after another, among which Giggia even came on stage on crutches. After Valcke introduced the lottery rules, the lottery officially began.

The specific drawing process is that the first step is to draw a team from the fourth pot (1 out of 9) and put it into the second pot, thus ensuring that each pot has 8 teams. As a result, Hurst drew a ball first and put it in the X gear, and the Italian team was drawn out.

Next, Cafu took the host Brazil team to the A1 position, and then Cafu drew the remaining seven first-tier teams Spain, Colombia, Uruguay, Wales, Argentina, Germany and Belgium to B to B respectively. Position No. 1 in Group H.

Subsequently, a team will be drawn from the 4 South American teams in the first pot. This team will be in the same group as the European team previously drawn from the fourth pot. After that, the second pot teams will be drawn in sequence to enter groups A to H. 7 remaining positions.

By the same principle, the two South American teams Chile and Ecuador cannot be grouped with the four South American teams in the first bracket.

As a result, Zidane drew Uruguay and Italy together, then Zizou drew Chile into Group B with Spain, Cameroon was in Group A with host Brazil, and Ecuador was with Wales in Group E. Together with the teams, the Colombian team in Group C also ushered in one of its opponents Ivory Coast, the Nigeria team was drawn into Group F and the same group as Argentina, the Ghana team was in the same group as the German team in the G group, and the Belgian team in the H group was The Algerian team was also announced.

The reason for this is to follow the principle of different groups of teams from the same continent and avoid having three European teams in one group.

Next is the determination of the position of the third-tier team. Cannavaro determines the fate of the team in this tier. The Mexican team, the Australian team, the Japanese team, the Costa Rica team, the Honduras team, the Iranian team, the American team and the South Korean team are in order. Was assigned to groups A to H.

The final step is to determine the position of the fourth pot team, Hurst controls the fate of the European teams. Croatia, Netherlands, Switzerland, England, France, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Portugal and Russia were drawn in sequence. Group B team Spain, Netherlands, Chile and Australia were in the same group. The two teams of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa A final team will compete in the group stage of the World Cup in Brazil; Group D includes England, Italy, Uruguay and Costa Rica. Obviously, this group has a strong "smell of death".

Wales finally got a top draw. As the seed team in Group E, they were drawn together with Ecuador, France and Honduras. In this group, judging from the rankings, except for France, which poses some threats to Wales, neither Ecuador nor Honduras can pose much of a threat to Wales. Not surprisingly, France and Wales will qualify together.

It is worth mentioning that Bell has his teammates in the three opponents in the group stage. The French team has Evra, Pogba and Kanter, Ecuador has Valencia, and the Honduras team has the former Tottenham teammate Palacios.

The drawing ceremony ended successfully after Margaret Menezes' wonderful performance.

Finally, the final groupings for the 2014 Brazil World Cup have been released.
