1966 England’s success; Wales waited 64 years Sport | Deshabhimani

It’s been 56 years since England started waiting for another World Cup. The first and last milestone was in the 1966 World Cup held in Nadu. Bobby Moore was the winner. West Germany lost 4-2 in the final. Geoffrey Hurst’s hat-trick was the highlight.

After that, fans are delighted and disappointed every time. He was fourth in 1990 and 2018. Last time in Russia, they lost in the semifinals to Croatia. In the losers’ final, they couldn’t beat Belgium and finished fourth.
This time he was in excellent shape in the qualifying round. Eight wins and two draws in 10 games. He scored 39 goals and only conceded three. Captain Harry Kane scored 12 goals and became the top scorer in Europe. Second place at the Eurocup last year. In the final they lost against Italy on penalties.

Then there are complete setbacks. They are winless in six UEFA Nations League matches. He lost twice to Hungary. First a goal and then four goals. Worst performance since 2014. However, coach Gareth Southgate is confident that none of this will affect the World Cup. The national team is full of players from European clubs. The coach is confused as to who to play in which position. Another problem is that players don’t shine in the national jersey.

Harry Kane is the spearhead of the team. Raheem Sterling is also there to score. Another player to watch out for is the new generation Bukayo Saka. In midfield is Liverpool star Jordan Henderson. Player injuries have left a significant mark on the defense. Defensive pillars Reese James and Calvin Phillips, who can be used in both midfield and defense, are eliminated. Another star Kyle Walker is on treatment. Are Harry Maguire and John Stones expected to return from injury, will Harry Kane and his team be able to accomplish what David Beckham, Wayne Rooney, Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard’s gold line failed to do?

Wales waited 64 years

Wales is a country with a population of thirty two million. One part is adjacent to England. The other three parts are the sea. This small country has been waiting for 64 years to play the World Cup for the second time. He previously played in the 1958 World Cup in Sweden. Akuri lost in the quarter-finals to future champions of Brazil. In reality it was Pele’s goal that gave up. Later, Wales were forgotten in world football. He finished second behind Belgium in the first European qualifying round. Four wins, one defeat and three draws in eight games. The ticket was taken by beating Austria and Ukraine in the play-offs. Subsequently it was a poor performance in the UEFA Nations League. Losing five out of six games.

After England in the group, Wales are the strongest. Three experienced players form the basis of the team. Wale Hennessy under the counter. Chris Hunter in defense. Gareth Bale is all about progress. It will be Bale’s last World Cup at the age of 33. 40 goals in 108 times with the national team is the record. Wales want the pre-quarters as the youngsters join the veterans.
