The World Cup has completed the group stage and the round of 16, and the top 8 will start on December 9 (Friday).
"Hong Kong 01" interviewed a group of MPs earlier, and each team supported the team. However, with Germany's early exit, several fan MPs "fell to the ground and broke their glasses."
Taking advantage of the fact that there are no games in the past few days, let's take stock of the members' favorite teams and see who can have the last laugh.
5 MPs hold Germany out of group stage
Germany scored 4 points in the "Death Group E" group stage, and Spain, which was behind the same points in goals and concedes, was eliminated in the third place in the group, which must have surprised the fans.
Before the game, many fans thought that Germany’s lineup was neat, but they lost to Japan 1-2 in the first game, and then they could only play 1-1 against another strong team Spain. Although they beat Costa Rica 4-2 in the final round, they still have to drink their hatred Out, and the squad was reportedly livid when they returned to Germany.
In the past, Germany's performance was not bad, so the Legislative Council naturally has supporters.
Chen Keqin and Li Shirong of the DAB, Deng Jiabiao of the Federation of Trade Unions, and Yang Yongjie of the "A4 League" are all fans of Germany. Chen Keqin even pointed out before the game that the characteristic of German football is "steadiness", and good results are achieved by playing steadily.
It is worth mentioning that Guo Weiqiang of the Federation of Trade Unions happens to be in the same group as Germany and Spain, so he will choose Germany.
As a result, Spain qualified in the group stage but was eliminated in the round of 16.

Brazilian fans have many congressmen "from small to large"
Brazil, a traditional strong team, is quite hostile this year. They won all group matches. The round of 16 beat South Korea 4-1 more easily.
Gabriel Jesis retired due to injury, but Brazil's firepower still seems to be strong.
There are many Brazilian supporters in the Legislative Council. The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong (DAB) Chen Hengbin explained the reason, saying that people of similar age are generally brought up by South American football, and he also "eating Brazilian milk" has always supported Brazil.
Chen Zhenying, Wu Jiezhuang, Zhang Xinyu of Hong Kong New Direction, Lu Songxiong of the Federation of Trade Unions, and Lin Jianfeng of the Economic and Democratic Federation are all Brazilian supporters.
Among them, Wu Jiezhuang pointed out before the start of the final week that Brazil's third-tier players are average, and hoped that the 30-year-old Nima would reach the peak of his football career.
Lu Songxiong "looked at the data" and pointed out that Brazilian football will "revive" every 20 years. The last time it won the World Cup was in 2002, exactly 20 years ago. I hope this time it can be realized.

Argentina's top 8 face Dutch MP Praise Metz
Another South American powerhouse at the time was Argentina, whose first defeat to Saudi Arabia surprised fans and remains the most surprising result for the time being.
Afterwards, Argentina adjusted and won consecutively against Mexico and Poland 2-0. In the round of 16, they eliminated Australia 2-1. In the round of 8, they will face the stronger Netherlands.
The focus of Argentina is of course the "last tango of Messi". The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong (DAB) Ho Chun-hsien very much hopes that Messi can win the World Cup. Party member Chen Xuefeng also said that "the football world owes Messi a World Cup." Even he doesn't pay much attention Tian Beichen of the World Cup said that he hoped that Metz would have a good ending.
Li Zijing appreciates Argentina's fast pace, Lin Zhensheng appreciates Argentina's "technical style" of play, and Qiu Dagan expressed his support for Argentina since childhood.
In addition, Argentina and Spain supported by Xie Weiquan, Argentina successfully reached the top 8, but Spain was eliminated.
Lin Suwei, who doesn't watch waves on weekdays, praised C Ronaldo for being "good-looking".

The female will support C Lang Portugal to reach the top 8, it would be better without him?
Another star who hopes for a "perfect end" this year is of course Portugal's C Ronaldo.
Portugal lost to South Korea 2-1 after two wins in the group stage, advanced to the top 16 and beat Switzerland 6-1, and will face Morocco, which eliminated Spain in the next game.
None of the male councilors interviewed by "Hong Kong 01" before the start of the game were Portuguese supporters. On the contrary, Lin Suwei, who does not watch football on weekdays, was fascinated by C Lang. Participating in the World Cup can have a good performance.
However, C Ronaldo was the first reserve in the game against Switzerland, did not score a goal after playing, and did not thank the fans with his teammates after the game, and went straight to the locker room.
Can this star lead Portugal to another victory, or is it better without him in the next game, as the team leader Ferrando Santos said: "Some things need to be repositioned."
England supporters face France next round
Hong Kong people watch the Premier League more and are very familiar with English players. There are also many English fans in the parliament.
Liu Guoxun of the DAB has always supported England, but there is no player he particularly likes in this year's lineup.
New Thinking Di Zhiyuan supports England and Argentina. He also watches the Premier League and supports Manchester United and Leeds United.
"A4 League" Liang Wenguang is a veteran British fan. He has been supported by Arsenal's "elderly defense line" since the days when he was the main force.
Xie Weijun gave a brief answer to support England, France and the Netherlands before the final week. All three teams can reach the top 8!
England's "Rat Boy" striker scored a large number of goals in many games, including a 6-2 win over Iran in the group stage, a 0-0 draw against the United States, a 3-0 win over Wales, and a 3-0 win over the last 16. 0 against Senegal.
However, the quarter-finals will face France, which has shown its domineering power this year. Whether striker Harry Gianni can catch Tottenham teammate goalkeeper Lloris' "Paijiao" error may be the key.
