WELLBET EN: World Cup Live South Korea VS Germany Loev life and death battle array? Cross key

WELLSPORTS News
News from June 30th to June 27th, the final round of the 2018 Russia World Cup group match ushered in the focus of the game, 22 o'clock this evening, the live broadcast of Germany against South Korea. This game is related to the defending champion's qualifying, and the German coach Loew will usher in a life-and-death battle. Can this be a miraculous effect? Can Kross, who sent a lore for the last time, save the owner again?

(WELLBET WORLDCUP 2018)
Two teams starting list forecast
South Korea (4-4-2): 23 - Zhao Xianyou; 2 - Li Xin, 20 - Zhang Xianxiu, 19 - Jin Yingquan, 12 - Jin Minyou; 17 - Li Zaicheng, 8 - Zhu Shizhong, 13 - Zhi Zizhe, 18 - Wen Xuanmin; 11 - Huang Xican, 7-Sun Xingyi
Germany (4-2-3-1): 1- Neuer; 18-Kimich, 5-Hummels, 16-Lundig, 3-Hector; 8-Tony-Kroos, 21 -Kondoan; 13- Thomas Müller, 20-Butland, 11-Royce; 9-Werner

German decision game
In the third round of group matches, Group F was the only group with four teams that had hopes for a qualifying goal. Even though the second round of the 2-1 wins Sweden with 3 points, it does not mean that the Germans can sit back and relax against South Korea. Champions beat opponents with at least 2 goal difference to ensure that the team qualify, otherwise it is only 1 goal and a small victory may also be eliminated. As for the first group, it depends on the play of Mexicans. In the history of the past, Germany has not beaten South Korea by more than two goals. This is undoubtedly a major test for them.
　　Lough life and death battle matrix?
Against Sweden, Royce started very well, but Draxler and Muller's performance was quite general. The defense center Boateng applied for a red card to leave, and Rudy accidentally injured and left the game. The injury is not serious. In the final battle with South Korea, Loew must carefully consider the starting candidate. According to the “Photo” report, Humeres, who may have partnered to recover from injury, will serve as a centre-back, and two consecutive substitutes are shooting at the goal post. It is also quite expectable. On the striker, veteran Gomez came off the bench and made the German offense look a new look. He and Werner should use it, and Love will also consider this issue very cautiously.
　　Germany's close to 17 games, 15 wins and Cross became the key?
Since the European Cup lost to France in 2016, Germany has scored 15 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in 17 official games (non-friendliest matches). The only game lost is in the first round loss to Mexico. This time in the face of South Korea, the defending champion sworn victory promotion. In the last five World Cup games, Cross made 5 goals (3 goals + 2 assists). He also hoped that he could continue to help Germany survive the difficult times. In this game against South Korea, the German team naturally does not want to wreck a boat again.

World Cup fans and officials are warned to be on alert for Russian 'honeytrap' spies targeting them for blackmail and ID fraud

Football fans heading to this summer's World Cup need to watch out for Russian spies, an Estonian intelligence chief has said.

Mikk Marran, who is director general of the country's foreign intelligence service, warned fans that strangers who spoke to them in bars and pubs could turn out to be Russian agents targeting them for blackmail or information.

He warned foreign supporters to take care with phones and laptops at the tournament in Russia, or avoid bringing them at all, The Times reports.

The World Cup, which will take place in 11 Russian cities, kicks off on June 14.

Mr Marran said officials and businessmen visiting Russia for the competition could be targets because they might have access to privileged information about their countries.

The spy chief did not rule out that Russia might use 'honeytrap' spies to gather information.
He told fans: 'They are going to be looking at who are coming, where they are staying, what they are doing, what are the possibilities, weaknesses.

'It doesn't mean that you shouldn't go to Russia. Russia is a great country. But just to make people more aware of what might be happening around them when they are happily having a pint in Moscow or someplace else.'
A report from his intelligence agency said: 'This year's tournament is a gigantic PR project for Russia that is intended to send a clear signal to the international community that Russia has succeeded well despite sanctions and been able to break out of international isolation.

'Russian security forces will also be keeping a closer eye on people visiting Russia during the tournament.

'Major international events taking place in Russia – political and economic forums, scientific conferences, youth festivals and sports competitions – play an important role in intelligence collection.

'This creates a favourable opportunity for Russian special services to find targets for human intelligence and collect information.'

Arsenal increase bid for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang 'with 48 hours to seal deal'

Borussia Dortmund are said to have dug their heels in

Arsenal have upped the ante in their bid for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after increasing their offer to a potential club record of £50million while setting the clock ticking with a 48-hour deal deadline - The Times reports.

Borussia Dortmund are said to have dug their heels in, hoping to make £60million from the wantaway Gabonese forward, 28.

Even at £10million less than the asking price a deal would surpass the reported £44million the Gunners paid Lyon for Alexandre Lacazette in July.

Meanwhile Aubameyang sent Arsenal fans into a spin with a tweet on Tuesday that was perceived to hint at a deal.

Along with a waving emoji the post was signed off "xxxxxxL" - suspected by some to say Arsenal with most of the letters removed.

The Daily Mail says Gunners forward Olivier Giroud, 31, has also been part of the negotiations as part of a potential player swap.

According to the Daily Telegraph Arsenal are now frontrunners to snatch West Brom skipper Jonny Evans, 30, after Manchester City grew disinterested.

The Gunners are seeking a deal of around £20million, which would swell the total spent on talent in the window to £70million if Aubameyang ends up at the Emirates.

Albion are said to be keen to raise funds so new boss Alan Pardew can bolster the side's attacking capability before the transfer window ends.

Now Jose Mourinho has bagged Alexis Sanchez he is considering Manchester United's next acquisition - with three names coming to the surface, according to The Independent.

Nice's Ivory Coast midfielder Jean-Michael Seri, 26, is said to be the United boss' top pick, while Shakhtar Donetsk's Brazilian playmaker Fred, 24, is also a candidate.

Arsenal's Mesut Ozil, 29, completes the trio, although the German World Cup winner is reported to be after more than £300,000-a-week wherever he moves to once his contract expires this summer.

Further talks have taken place between West Ham and Inter Milan over midfielder Joao Mario, the Daily Mail reports, as the Irons look for emergency replacements for injured Marko Arnautovic and Manuel Lanzini.

Inter are reportedly demanding a loan fee and obligation to buy at the end of the loan, while West Ham will also have to pay the 25-year-old's wages in full.

Diego Costa out for 10 days

Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa has been ruled out for 10 days after picking up a hamstring injury in Saturday’s draw with Girona.

The Spain international is set to miss the midweek Copa del Rey return match against Sevilla while also sitting out the forthcoming La Liga match against Las Palmas.

Tests were carried out on the 29-year-old after he was forced off during the clash with Girona, having scored three goals in five appearances for Atleti.

Costa has already sat out one match since his debut after he was dismissed in the 2-0 win at home to Getafe earlier this month.

Arsenal make offer for Barcelona midfielder as long-term Mesut Ozil replacement

ARSENAL have made an offer for Barcelona midfielder Rafinha, according to reports in Spain.


Rafinha has struggled to make an impact at Barcelona after falling out of favour with previous managers and struggling with injuries. The 24-year-old is yet to make a single appearance for the Catalan side this season due to an ongoing knee problem. However, 

the Brazilian is said to be on the mend and attracting interest from a host of Europe’s top clubs who are keen to offer him a lifeline in January. Spanish outlet Don Balon claim Arsenal are among the suitors and have approached the midfielder with an offer. The report says the Gunners are looking at Rafinha as a potential replacement for Mesut Ozil who is yet to sign a new deal and could leave Arsenal in the summer for free. However, the Premier League side will reportedly face stiff competition for the Brazilian’s signature. 

Despite not featuring for Barca, Celta Vigo and Inter Milan are also said to be running the rule over Rafinha. And they are both said to have approached the midfielder with offers to leave the Nou Camp in January. Rafinha is said to be keen to leave Barcelona, where his career has stagnated, in order to find success elsewhere like his elder brother Thiago. However, 

Ernesto Valverde suggested this week he would not allow the Brazilian to leave and had plans for him once he is fully fit. “In the case of Rafinha, he has not been able to do a workout," Valverde said “Yesterday was the first time he went out to work with the group, I'm looking forward to seeing him train, I've only seen him as an opponent, we want him to help us.”

Five talking points from Juventus’ 2-0 Coppa Italia win over Genoa

he Bianconeri opened the Coppa Italia in style to advance to a Derby semifinal.


Juventus opened up their third consecutive defense of the Coppa Italia on Wednesday when they welcomed Genoa to Allianz Stadium.


The last time Juve and Genoa tangled, it was the second game of the season, and the Grifonegot out to an unexpected two-goal lead before Paulo Dybala took over and scored his first career hat trick to send the Bianconeri out of the Marassi 4-2 winners.


Dybala was the protagonist for Juve again on Wednesday night — we’ll get to that in a bit — and Massimiliano Allegri’s men were never truly challenged on their way to a 2-0 win that sent them through to the quarterfinals of the competition for the 11th consecutive year. They will tangle with Torino in a bonus Derby della Mole on Wednesday, Jan. 3.


What did we see on Wednesday, and what does it mean? Here are five talking points from the Round of 16 match.
Dybala Rising


Dybala had started the last two games on the bench. Between that, reports of unrest in his personal life, and rumors that his brother and new agent had begun shopping the strikeraround Europe, the tabloids have been salivating over the 24-year-old’s future.


Dybala was given the chance to put that all behind him when he was given his first start since the Champions League group stage finale against Olympiacos. Playing as a false nine in a 4-3-3 (another thing we’ll talk about later), Dybala’s day wasn’t perfect, but it ended up being exactly what he needed. He played a part in both goals, scoring the first and setting up Gonzalo Higuain for the second.


The Argentine looked a little imprecise at times early, and could probably have opened the scoring far earlier than he did had he made a run into the box rather than ball-watching when Federico Bernardeschi headed the ball across the box in the ninth minute. He also sent a free kick into the wall and had a shot or two blocked and looked shaky when he scuffed a finish in the 38th minute. But he broke through four minutes later when Claudio Marchisio found him with a good early pass from the right via a Bernardeschi dummy. Dybala controlled perfectly, let it run across him and fired home.


From that moment on there was a visible change in the way Dybala carried himself. You could tell he was more confident, and the pass he sent to Higuain was a peach.


Fans will hope that this is the beginning of another fertile period for the young striker. It could just be that Dybala, like all players in all sports, just needed a mental healthy break. It worked for Higuain a few months ago, and it certainly seems like it worked here. Saturday’s match against Roma will be more instructive on that front.
Beautiful Berna


He didn’t get himself on the scoresheet, but Bernardeschi had a great day on the right wing. He put the ball in dangerous areas quite a few times. He did well to set up Douglas Costa in the 25th minute, but the Brazilian was denied by a fantastic save from Eugenio Lamanna. Five minutes later Costa returned the favor, with Bernardeschi just missing into the side netting. He also had a nice free kick denied by Lamanna, who, beyond Wojciech Szczsney, is probably the best No. 2 goalkeeper in Serie A.


He did less in the second half as Genoa found a small foothold and as Allegri’s system morphed as the game progressed. But for a good portion of the game he was the team’s most dangerous player, and the fans gave him a nice ovation as he left the pitch.


It’s games like this that are the reason I, and others who write for this site, are so keen to see Bernardeschi playing more and bigger minutes over the likes of Juan Cuadrado. His play had none of the brain farts, showboating, or mystifying errors that color the Colombian’s game on his bad days. It’d be nice to see if he can replicate this performance in bigger games than this.
Bentancur Develops


I love watching Rodrigo Bentancur play. He’s already got a very advanced sense of the game for someone his age, and the talent to make use of it. Watching him now makes me think of Paul Pogba in his first season at Juve.


He went about his defensive responsibilities well, and going forward made a couple of really excellent passes. He was the one that set up that early square from Bernardeschi that could have resulted in the opener, and in the second half he sent a 25-yard shot sizzling past the far post.


A friend I was watching the game with described the young Uruguay international perfectly: he’s an uncut diamond. With some shaping and polishing, Juventus will have a beautiful player on their hands. If this is what Carlitos Tevez’s last gift to the Bianconeri is, it was a wonderful one indeed.
Szczsney Secure


I have to admit I wasn’t fond of the idea of Szczsney becoming the heir apparent to Gianluigi Buffon. His years at Arsenal had done little to convince me, and at Roma he put up good numbers but was subject to the occasional meltdown — not unlike Roma as a team. Going into the season I was far more in favor of buying a young Italian like Alex Meret — or even seeing if Gianluigi Donnarumma would ever slip through Milan’s fingers — rather than rely on the Pole.


I’m beginning to think I was wrong. And I’m glad about that.


Szczsney has started the last four games as Buffon nurses a calf injury, and he’s been damn good. Juve kept their seventh straight clean sheet in the win, and Szczsney was a big part of it. He only faced one shot on target, but also raced off his line several times to beat strikers to dangerous through balls and was a commanding presence on the few occasions Genoa got the ball into the air in the box.


I actually enjoy being proved wrong when it comes like this. Life A.B.—After Buffon—might just be in safe hands after all.
Tactics Talk


Using Dybala as a false nine was a significant tactical wrinkle from Max Allegri today, and for the most part it worked. The combination of Bernardeschi, Dybala, and Costa brought a lot of speed and technique to the party, and they pulled defenders out of position for each other to exploit space.


The big issue with this system, though, is its lack of height. Without the heads of Higuain or Mario Mandzukic to aim for ball had to be kept almost entirely on the deck during buildup. A few balls came over the top, but for the most part crosses weren’t a viable option.


Allegri acknowledged as much in his post-match press conference, telling reporters, “Obviously, when Dybala is the center forward, then the box must be filled with runs from the wingers and midfielders. It’s something we can test out, but in order for it to work, we need the wide men to constantly push forward.”


The style of play a Dybala-led line necessitates will obviously take some more training to refine. It may actually end up better suited for games against big teams like Napoli as opposed to provinciale like Genoa. Whereas Napoli like to attack and can leave lanes open, the tendency of the ball to stay on the ground in this system feels like it wouldn’t play as well against a resolute and well-organized defensive group.





Still, it showed some clear promise, and is worth experimenting with in an attempt to refine it. Having options to rest Higuain is never a bad thing, and it could give Dybala the sense of being “the man” that has been missing in his game. I look forward to seeing this new system improved upon in the future.
