Aside from the games on the field, French star Kyliann is in full swing these days, with Europe and America in full swing. The Mbappé interview mentions the belief that the world of Europe is harder than the world of the world and is derived from that. "Which is harder, Europe or the world?" In general, everyone's first instinct is usually that the world is great in Europe, but after unfolding the record over the years, it's surprisingly likely that the world's top-performing European teams will suffer their Waterloo in Europe two years from now. However, on the contrary, many of the teams that were great in Europe were not satisfactory after two years, so it is difficult to calculate, but one obvious criterion is the qualification for the World Cup!
As the world qualifying tournament is split into continents, there will be 13 European teams in the final round in 2022 if you make it to the final round, in fact, if you come out on top in each continent. They can only qualify if they are the top 13 in Europe that year. All the teams that have won titles in world history have come from European and South American countries. Therefore, in addition to Europe, which is recognized as the second largest tournament, South America is certainly not to be overlooked. It has been said that advancing to the finals from the qualifiers of these two continents is more difficult than advancing to the world qualifiers, where we will meet teams from China, North Latin America, Asia and Africa. The teams that advance from these two continents may be easier to face than those continental teams that were eliminated in the qualifiers.
At this point in time, some might say that it is like the traditionally strong German team, who even lost to an Asian team in the group stage, or the African team Morocco, who made it to the top four in the last tournament. However, it must be said that these are all individual cases. Most of the teams that ended up with better results came from both continents. In the next edition, 2026, the world will expand the 48-team tournament quota to 6.5 teams for qualification in South America, which means that the top six will be promoted and another team will have the opportunity to participate in a cross-continental play-off.
Some have argued that this would make it a bit excessive for more than half of the South American teams to advance, given that there are only ten teams from South America. However, considering that South America is at the same high level as Europe, they also have the longest world qualifying tournament, as the other countries have a bit of an extreme climate and terrain (especially the high altitude countries of Polevia, Ecuador and Chile). It is often considered the most difficult of the state qualifiers, and with only ten countries, they meet regularly and know each other very well. In fact, this makes it more difficult to dominate each team's duel!
Then now sees CONCACAF inviting strong North and Central Latin American teams to participate in the CONCACAF, which turns out to be proof that South America is still much stronger than North and Central Latin America. Both Mexico and the U.S. went out in the group stage of CONCACAF Gold, which North and Central Latin American teams alternately dominate. Mexico may have done so because they're a bit young right now, but the U.S. missed out on a special blood-swapping exercise for the 2018 world. After six years of competition, Team America is what it is. That's right! Panama and Canada have advanced to the top eight, but Panama met a largely inferior South American team in Bolivia and the United States, who beat the same continent. Uruguay, a true South American powerhouse in the same group, was a 1-3 finisher.
And the Canadian team can now be called the golden age of the team's history, this year's group stage of the Americas rely on the latter two games respectively 1. : 0 beat Peru, 0: 0 draw with Chile these two teams in South America's history are somewhat competitive. However, Peru's starting lineup in these two teams has more than half in the 30 years old or about significantly aging, while Chile is the entire veteran brought newcomers. Against two South American teams on the wane, many of the young Canadian teams in their prime overall did not concede a goal, but it's still important to note that both Peru and Chile had red-carded players in both games, resulting in one man short. Canada is still pretty thrilled with the bad content of only scoring one goal in three games.
