Before the opening ceremony of the European Cup, the news about England in the media was not only criticized by Wan Sheng, but also a lot of negative news about England.

If it is suspicious news that is "making up randomly", of course it will have no impact. The key media reports are real news.

The situation of the team in recent days has made Wan Sheng feel that God is against England.

England is so 'unlucky'.

Just as the Sun described it, "There is a team like this: every World Series it is a popular candidate for the championship, but it always fails early. It is full of love, but it hurts people's hearts again and again. It is the England team."

The England team can be said to be a gathering of stars. Wan Sheng is worried about the team's technical level, but the abilities of each player in the team are absolutely not bad.

But as things happen one by one, England seems to be full of tragedy.

During the week of preparation, a player in the team was injured and was sure to be unable to participate in the European Cup, that was Scott Parker. There was nothing to worry about in Wansheng, and Parker was just a player on the edge of the midfield. It is hard to say whether he could play. The impact of being injured and unable to play is not great.

But on the morning of June 8, Lampard was injured again while the team was warming up.

Lampard's injury is not serious, but he is definitely unable to participate in the European Cup.

Later, Lampard announced that he would withdraw from the European Cup due to injury, and Wan Sheng also started to have a headache. The two players were injured and it seemed nothing was wrong. But Lampard and Parker were both midfielders, and they were missing two midfielders at once. It became a problem for the midfield to send defensive players.

If only two back midfielders were injured, Wan Sheng would not be so worried. The front line was also a point that needs to be paid attention to. Rooney was considered a genius forward. But it was not until a few days after preparing for training that Wan Sheng knew what Rooney said that UEFA was suspended and could not play in the first two games of the group stage.

World Sports commented jokingly, "Would there be such an extreme assumption: By the time Rooney returns, England has been eliminated early..."

The first game of the European Cup group stage has not yet begun, and three English teams have confirmed that they cannot play, among which Rooney and Lampard are considered the absolute main players.

This is the doom of England.

Some British football celebrities believe that "this is the weakest England team in history."

Some media have also begun to criticize the list of Wansheng's recruitment. Among them, it is questionable that Ferdinand was excluded and Barry was not included in the list.

"If there were Ferdinand and Barry, the English roster wouldn't have to look so urgent."

Some media reporters analyzed.

Some players in the England team were injured, and the news from the outside world was not very good. Originally, the opening ceremony of the European Cup was to support the royal family and government cabinet members, but the British government announced that all cabinet members would collectively boycott the 2012 European Cup in order to protest the Ukrainian government's imprisonment of Tymoshenko.

The Ukrainian government imprisonment of Tymoshenko was a political incident. Tymoshenko served as Ukrainian vice-president from 1999 to 2001 and as Ukrainian prime minister from February to September 2005.

After the parliamentary elections in September 2007, she became Prime Minister again.

Last year, on October 11, 2011, Tymoshenko appealed after being sentenced to seven years in prison for opposition prosecution. On December 30, Tymoshenko entered Kacharovsky Women's Prison in Kharkov Prefecture to serve his sentence.

A spokesman for the British Foreign Ministry said: "All cabinet members will not go to watch the 2012 European Cup, but the British government supports England in the European Cup. We hope that all fans can enjoy the European Cup."

At the same time, British royal family Prince William and Harry will not attend the opening ceremony held in Poland.

These governments and royal members, due to political pressure, do not attend the opening ceremony to support the team. In fact, it doesn’t matter much, and Wan Sheng doesn’t care at all.

But before the most unlucky time was yet, what made Wan Sheng sigh that England's "unlucky fate" was the next thing.

Just as the opening ceremony of the European Cup was completed and all the players were about to leave by plane, forward Defoe received a message, which instantly made him cry - Defoe's father passed away forever.

Defoe could only return to England with sorrow.

Although Defoe said he would return to the team, most people believe that Defoe would definitely not be able to catch up with the first round of the group stage.

After so many unlucky incidents, Wansheng made the whole team actively prepare for the battle and no longer care about anything outside.

That news is always bad for England.

On the evening of June 8, after all the English teams checked into the hotel in Donbasque, Ukraine, Wansheng opened the "player room", allowing the "England Wife Group" to have a night of "happy" time with the players. The players who were banning continuously could also relax their bodies slightly, but the next morning, the team entered a tense preparation period again.

They didn't even care about other games and were preparing for the first round of the group stage.

The first round of England was held on the 12th, and there were two days of preparation time, which was relatively sufficient, but the first game was not easy to play, and the opponent was the French team with the best strength in the group.

The French team's European Cup qualifiers' road to advancement was not easy. In the adverse situation of losing one goal in the last round, they finally tied Bosnia and Herzegovina 1-1 with a penalty kick, thus defeating their opponents with a 1-point advantage to get the first place in the group to qualify directly, and also pushed the Bosnia and Herzegovina into a desperate situation.

But as a European giant and traditional team, the French team's successful qualifying can be said to be a popular choice.

France once won the European Cup twice in 1984 and 2000, and they also competed for one of the popular teams to win the championship.

The French team is now in a 'lowing period' of strength, just like England. Since the "golden generation" Zidane, Djokav, Deschamps, Henry and Vieira gradually faded out of people's sight, the French team has begun to decline.

At the 2010 South Africa World Cup, the French team was directly eliminated and returned home due to the irreconcilable contradictions within the team.

"French Football" analyzed, "In terms of lineup, whether it is Nasri, Gurkuv, Kabaye and others, they can never really take over Zidane and Djokav's team back then, and their overall strength is still far from that year."

So France and England are like England, "the current first task is undoubtedly to ensure the team qualifying."

"Luckily, France was suspended when it was against England. The Three Lions without Rooney meant that it was missing a pair of teeth."

However, in an interview with the media, the team's general Nasri said in a low-key manner, "We are a young team, not like England. They have famous stars like Gerald, Rooney, and Terry, and are accompanied by young and energetic young players like Villebeck."

French striker Benzema has a different view.

Benzema is definitely one of the most famous stars in the entire French team. On the eve of the European Cup, Benzema attracted much attention. Faced with the transfer storm in the European market, Benzema broke the news, "Manchester United's Ferguson has been striving to sign me for the past four years, but I have always refused. In the near future, I will not consider transferring to Old Trafford."

On June 11, just as Britain and France were about to fight, Benzema was interviewed again and talked about two points: one was that he refused Manchester United's invitation, and the other was that he would defeat England on behalf of France.

“It’s normal for rumors about my future,” Benzema said. “It’s the same every summer, and there’s a rumor that I’m going to go to this club, or that club.”

"But I had a very happy life at Real Madrid and never thought about leaving the team. I know that Manchester United has been trying to sign me for the past three or four seasons. When I was in Lyon, they wanted me with several other Premier League teams, but they couldn't reach a transfer fee agreement with Lyon. And I wanted to play in Spain at the time, so to speak, I never regretted this decision."

"I am still young, and I still want to achieve success in Real Madrid until 2015."

"I won't say I will never go to the Premier League. To be honest, I don't have any special preferences in terms of the team, but the future is still far away, which is something I won't consider at the moment."

Then Benzema talked about the European Cup, and his score in France was 45 games and 15 goals.

"We're in an extremely difficult group, and our first goal is to advance to the knockout stage and see how far we can go. On this stage, anything can happen, but we won't be afraid."

Finally Benzema talked about the upcoming 'British-French War', "We cannot lose points against England, it is not an easy game, because England is always one of the favorites in the big game."

"People always talk about Rooney's absence, but England has substitutes, their players have experience. But we also have some very experienced players, some very talented young people, and our coaches know England well, so we'll be well prepared."

"If we play in a state, we are confident of winning. We don't want a draw, we want to start the game with a victory. I can say that we have studied England's style of play very carefully, the scouts report is very detailed, and our preparations have reached the extreme."

"In general, the team's performance is more important. I think France will surprise many people this time. I know that Spain, the Netherlands and Germany are more optimistic, but underestimating us will be a big mistake."

The French players are so high-profile, which also makes the media hope to interview English players. Unfortunately, there is no news about the interviews of English players.

The English team seems to be completely different from the French team's statement. They just stay in the training ground or in the hotel, as if they are thinking about "low-key".

So some remarks began to appear in the media, such as "England has no confidence" and "England coach has no confidence", just said directly, "England has already admitted defeat."

The day passed quickly.

At noon on the day of the game, a media reporter finally saw Wan Sheng. They immediately asked about the 'British-French War'. Wan Sheng smiled slightly and replied, "I saw a lot of reports yesterday. It seems that many people think that the French team will win, and we will lose. I think that such a pre-match situation is very good for us. People are saying that this game will be difficult. They think that France has a higher winning rate, which will make our players more relaxed."

"When the outside world says that, I will say to the players: We just need to win the game with peace of mind."

As soon as Wan Sheng finished speaking, a French reporter immediately questioned, "What do you mean is that the English team will win? Can you tell me the reason?"

All the reporters around looked at Wansheng, looking forward to how he would answer this sharp question.

But Wan Sheng said a very stylish sentence. He pointed to the reporter and asked, "Is there any problem with your brain? England is a championship team. Our goal is to win the championship. If you want to win the championship, you will definitely enter the final. So is the group stage difficult for us? If you lose the first round of the group stage, we don't have to set our goal as winning the championship..."

The reporters around the media were all stunned.

They kept their minds for a long time, but they couldn't turn this corner. After they understood that Wansheng came over, they had disappeared from sight after "showing down".

This is the only thing Wan Sheng said before the game.

The 'British-French War' is about to begin.

This day is not a good day. The temperature in Donbas Stadium in Donetsk reached 34 degrees. The players of the two teams entered the stadium to adapt to the field and were disturbed by countless flying insects.

Many people are complaining about the weather in Ukraine, and even some media reporters are not used to it.

But this does not affect the heat of the game.

The pre-match press conference was filled with reporters. You could see hundreds of people even after looking up. The many reporters made the venue look lively.

While all the reporters were waiting, Wan Sheng and French coach Blanco entered the venue together, as if they had an agreement.

Blanco's player era is quite brilliant. He was a former French international and a senior defender, experienced and comprehensive technology. As a veteran born in 1965, his explosive power is amazing.

Although he was a central defender on the court, Blanco had strong offensive ability and had a variety of scoring methods. He helped France win the World Cup championship in 1998.

In his career, Blanco has won many honors, such as the French Footballer, and the best defender in the World Cup, etc. After retiring, Blanco became a coach. In the 2008-2009 season, he led Bordeaux to win the team's sixth Ligue 1 championship in history.

On December 15, 2009, the authoritative media French Football magazine selected the 2009 best coach of the year. Blanco, as the coach of Bordeaux, was elected by Arsenal head coach Wenger. After leaving Bordeaux, Blanco began to coach the French national team.

The media believes that one of the advantages of the French team lies in leading the team coach.

The honors Blanco won cannot be compared with Wan Sheng, but he has coached the French team for two years. Wan Sheng only served as the head coach for one week. Compared with two years and one week, Blanco has a great advantage...
