в сборную (для игр U21) был приглашен молодой 20летний полузащитник Viktor Isaev.
I've add Viktor Isaev, a 20yo midfielder. Hope he'll benefit our NT in the future.
Edited: Также добавил Valentin Kadomtsev в качестве 4-5 защитника для U21.
Also Kadomtsev was attracted to be ready for substitutions.

стартовый матч играем против румын. защитная тактика (что-то типа игры против франции, только защитники чуть повыше поставлены). ну, типа удачи нам.
Зы. из-за отпуска, шибко много не думал над тактикой, так что извиняйте. крымского вина тут много, но вроде ничего не перепутал :)

The World Cup is closing in soon, so why not make a little guide? :p Inspired by Julius' WC guide, I've tried to retrieve some information and give a little info about the participating teams. Seca and Borkos helped me with it.
The stars next to the countries name gives a superficial indicator of the teams strenght. The teams with many stars are the favorites to make it pretty far in the tournement, while the teams with 1 or 2 stars generally are the underdogs who can surprise.
I gave every coach the opportunity to talk about their team and explain their perspectives for the WC. Also, some intruiging players and history of the team at the previous WC's have been added.
Enjoy it ;)))

Suomi ✪✪✪✪
Suomi, or Finland, has known a fan-tas-tic qualification season. In a group with Argentina, Suomi managed to win every single game and thus realise a 30 out of 30. Only Poland was able to equalise that result! Now, they're in group A with England, Mexico and Portugal. Hard to tell if Suomi will qualify, even after their superb season as they'll meet England and Mexico early in the tournement. They still have the biggest chance to make it to the 1/8 final.
Coach: theKarsten (1 season experience as Suomi coach)
"Suomi goes to the WC as a challenger, but I can assure you that no team affords to underestimate us! Our qualifications, 10 matches and 30 points says it all; we are hungry and dangerous! ;) Our goal is, no less, than to make it to the semi-finals."

England ✪✪✪
The English team has known a better season then the two before. They collected 25 points, which is pretty nice, but it has to be said that the group they were in wasn't very hard. England can count on a great defensive line, but has some problems up front. They miss some profilic strikers over there. For now, qualifying for the KO rounds will be very hard as Suomi has more individuel class. The game against Mexico will be crucial.

Mexico can surprise, that's for sure, like in the qualification series where they managed to beat Eesti, but the week after they lose 6-1. Mexico has got some decent quality and with Bravo a true legend up front. He can surely make the difference. If Mexico can win the game against England, the ticket for the eight finals should be up for grabs.
Coach: Chuyuyuuy (1 season experience as Mexico coach)
"We only have a strong defensive line (high levels) and one good attacker (Bravo), but he's in bad form. Also our keeper and some of our mids and attackers are in low form. Generally, our midfield and attack (and keeper) are only medium skilled players. "

Last season's results weren't at all spectacular. Portugal qualified for the World Cup with a goal difference with Srbija. That's why I don't see them proceeding from this group. They also don't possess the same quality of players like the other teams of this group do. But who knows, maybe they can surprise.

Hrvatska ✪✪✪
Croatia was "best of the rest" for a long time, but 2 seasons ago they knew a set back. This season they showed a better performance by being able to obtain 28 points in the qualifications, a very nice result! Their sensational strikers are extremely hard to stop so that can be a decisive factor in the Croatian squad. Croatia's group B is a very hard one to qualify in. If they can beat France or Romania, they are through.

La France is a nation that is becoming very close to the absolute top of the world, as they showed by winning the unofficial U21 World Cup. The young players have had more then a season to grow and gain experience and they are ready to play a role in the big boys tournement. In the qualification series, only Italy could stop les Bleus. With some good tactics, France can get very far, although their first job is qualiying from the group, which is not easy with Croatia and Romania in it.
Coach: Benwa (1 season experience as French NT coach)
"France team has still a quite young squad and with a few experience. The most of the actual players were in the champion team of the U-21 WC. Our goal will be to reach the 8th final (and our pool is not that simple) and if we reach that level we will do the best as we can."

Romania is one of the up and coming nations in Sokker. Have been pulling a lot of quality youth lately. For now, they have to rely on their more then solid defense. They've also got some quality strikers up front. The midfield is the achillesheel though. Realised some very nice results in the qualifiers as they have managed to beat België (0-2) and Brazil (1-0). Romania will have a lot of difficulties advancing as the the group is very strong.

Coach: Sevvol (2 seasons experience as Rossiya Coach)
"This is the first WC in Russian SK-history. The fact that we qualified is a great achievement for us. It emphasizes that we develop in the right way. I wouldn`t expect a lot from our performance.

Lietuva ✪✪✪✪
Lietuva is still capable of lining up a great starting eleven, but they don't stick out anymore as they used to. Partially by the small user base, but also because the other teams are closing in fast. The Lietuvian attack is still one of the best out there and the defense is pretty solid too. There should be no problems qualifying as they are in perhaps the easiest group on this World Cup. The maximum of the point is almost a must for them.

Italia ✪✪✪✪
Italy has been showing of all their power during last season. Confident wins over Nederland (4-0) and Lietuva (7-3!) have only pointed out that they form a suberb nation with absolutely world class players. Who can keep them from making it to the final? My guess is that they are only to be stopped by Poland, or by having bad luck like in their last game against France (2-2) The group stage should be no problem at all for Italy.

But for now, we still have have to wait if Shadow will continue to call up the worst players for his NT. That could be good news for the other teams in this group.

After their very succesful campaign in the 2nd World Cup, Belgium probably won't be able to do it over again. There is a major gap in the squad as they are missing a good 22-23 year old generation. The oldies are still occupying the spots in the first team. Belgium ended the qualification group in 1st position, but had some trouble with Romania (0-2 loss) and Brazil (2-6 loss). First objective: winning against Scotland = 90% sure of qualification.
Coach: Maqoma (3 seasons exp. as NT coach, 1 as Belgian Coach)

Spain has always possessed one of the most powerful NT's in Sokker. That's not any different today. 27 points in the qualifications and some nice wins versus Belgium, Slovensko and Germany have showed that Spain is a potential candidate for the semis or even further up in the tournement. Although the coach seems to be new, he has been working for the NT for a while as an assistent, so the experience is present.

Coach: Ganzengeile (2 seasons experience as Schweiz coach)

But it is for sure that Brasil can beat them.

Still, Eesti can count on a great back four (or five) who can keep the 0 on the scorebord if they want to. And that's what you need really, if you want to reach the semi's one more time.

Coach: lowmem (No experience as NT coach)
"I expect to win all matches one at a time! Now seriously, we are the worst ranked team in group stage, but I expect to qualify. From there on is "mata-mata" game as Scolary says."

Hrvatska ✪✪✪
Croatia was "best of the rest" for a long time, but 2 seasons ago they knew a set back. This season they showed a better performance by being able to obtain 28 points in the qualifications, a very nice result! Their sensational strikers are extremely hard to stop so that can be a decisive factor in the Croatian squad. Croatia's group B is a very hard one to qualify in. If they can beat France or Romania, they are through.

France ✪✪✪✪
La France is a nation that is becoming very close to the absolute top of the world, as they showed by winning the unofficial U21 World Cup. The young players have had more then a season to grow and gain experience and they are ready to play a role in the big boys tournement. In the qualification series, only Italy could stop les Bleus. With some good tactics, France can get very far, although their first job is qualiying from the group, which is not easy with Croatia and Romania in it.
Coach: Benwa (1 season experience as French NT coach)
"France team has still a quite young squad and with a few experience. The most of the actual players were in the champion team of the U-21 WC. Our goal will be to reach the 8th final (and our pool is not that simple) and if we reach that level we will do the best as we can."

Romania ✪✪✪
Romania is one of the up and coming nations in Sokker. Have been pulling a lot of quality youth lately. For now, they have to rely on their more then solid defense. They've also got some quality strikers up front. The midfield is the achillesheel though. Realised some very nice results in the qualifiers as they have managed to beat België (0-2) and Brazil (1-0). Romania will have a lot of difficulties advancing as the the group is very strong.

Coach: Sevvol (2 seasons experience as Rossiya Coach)
"This is the first WC in Russian SK-history. The fact that we qualified is a great achievement for us. It emphasizes that we develop in the right way. I wouldn`t expect a lot from our performance. The ideal scenario is the third place in Group B. But even scoring a goal or gaining a point would be a good result for us."

Lietuva ✪✪✪✪
Lietuva is still capable of lining up a great starting eleven, but they don't stick out anymore as they used to. Partially by the small user base, but also because the other teams are closing in fast. The Lietuvian attack is still one of the best out there and the defense is pretty solid too. There should be no problems qualifying as they are in perhaps the easiest group on this World Cup. The maximum of the point is almost a must for them.

Italia ✪✪✪✪
Italy has been showing of all their power during last season. Confident wins over Nederland (4-0) and Lietuva (7-3!) have only pointed out that they form a suberb nation with absolutely world class players. Who can keep them from making it to the final? My guess is that they are only to be stopped by Poland, or by having bad luck like in their last game against France (2-2) The group stage should be no problem at all for Italy.

Normally, Poland is the clear favorite for the cup. The players are unbelievebly good and there is great depht in the squad. But for now, we still have have to wait if Shadow will continue to call up the worst players for his NT. That could be good news for the other teams in this group. We'll see in the first game against Belgium if Poland will want to become champions for the third consecutive time.

After their very succesful campaign in the 2nd World Cup, Belgium probably won't be able to do it over again. There is a major gap in the squad as they are missing a good 22-23 year old generation. The oldies are still occupying the spots in the first team. Belgium ended the qualification group in 1st position, but had some trouble with Romania (0-2 loss) and Brazil (2-6 loss). First objective: winning against Scotland = 90% sure of qualification.
Coach: Maqoma (3 seasons exp. as NT coach, 1 as Belgian Coach)

Spain has always possessed one of the most powerful NT's in Sokker. That's not any different today. 27 points in the qualifications and some nice wins versus Belgium, Slovensko and Germany have showed that Spain is a potential candidate for the semis or even further up in the tournement. Although the coach seems to be new, he has been working for the NT for a while as an assistent, so the experience is present.

Still, Eesti can count on a great back four (or five) who can keep the 0 on the scorebord if they want to. And that's what you need really, if you want to reach the semi's one more time.

Germany can line up a very strong team, but it's hard to predict what the result will be against Canada and Argentina, both crucial games. Previous season, the wins vs England (3-1) and Slovensko (1-5) were amongst the only really good results.

Второй матч на ЧМ играем против старых знакомых: команды Франции. Это, пожалуй последний шанс для нас забить первый мяч на ЧМ. Шансов победить мало (две последние встречи закончились со счетом 0:4 для нас), но в любом случае дам бой.

я знаю и тоже так думаю. просто 0:4 выглядит уж как-то совсем беспомощно :(
