Beijing time on November 29, 2022 World Cup Group h second round match, Portugal 2-0 victory over Uruguay, b Fei Mei scored two goals. Portugal advanced early with back-to-back wins. Except for Portugal, the other three teams have the possibility of advancing, depending on the final round. But for Uruguay, Uruguay is the strongest team based on the country's population!
The sign team of the last World Cup was Croatia, where more than 4 million people could have reached the World Cup final. Unfortunately, the population is too small, otherwise the ending would be hard to say! At this point, we will laugh at the national soccer team. 4 million is even less than the population of a Chinese city, or even only the population of a major Chinese city! Croatia could also reach the World Cup final, the difference is too great. But in fact, which team has the smallest population in the history of the World Cup? Namely, Uruguay from South America, with a population of over 3 million, less than Croatia. But Uruguay has also won two World Cups. If Uruguay relied on home field advantage the first time, then the second title was not watered down and had a lot of gold in it.The 1950 World Cup final was a round-robin tournament, with the final match against Uruguay vs. Brazil, and Brazil only had to draw to win the title!
Moreover, the World Cup was held in Brazil, which occupied the right time and place. The whole world thought Brazil was the winner and even Uruguayan fans were not optimistic about Uruguay winning. Surprisingly, Uruguay ended up beating Brazil and winning its second World Cup! But Uruguay's population is still too small, despite the many superstars in Uruguay's history, such as Cavani and Suarez. Youngsters include Valverde, Nunez and Araujo, who missed out due to injury. But Uruguay's talent is still too small due to its small population base. Uruguay is arguably one of the oldest teams in the World Cup in terms of average age is average age, Uruguay wouldn't have been drawn by South Korea and wouldn't have even lost to Portugal!
Hopefully, Uruguay will once again usher in a new era!
