On April 2, Beijing time, the results of the 2022 Qatar World Cup group draw have been announced. England, Iran and the United States are in Group B. The last opponent in this group will be between Wales VS Scotland/Ukraine. After the draw ceremony, England coach Gareth Southgate also gave an interview and talked regarding his views on the opponents in this group.
Southgate said the United States is an interesting opponent, and their game will be very attractive.
“We haven’t played once morest the United States and Iran for a long time. The last opponent in the group stage is unknown. Of course, it may be the English derby. We know Scotland very well.”
Southgate bluntly said that if you want to qualify, you must play well in the group stage, and no matter who your opponent is, you must make sure to advance. In addition, because this World Cup is played in winter, it is not the club’s off-season, so Southgate said that the team has communicated with the Premier League in private, and hopes that there will be no strong dialogue on the last Premier League match day before the start of the World Cup. , because the team has almost no preparation time, which may lead to many players being unable to play in the first game of the group stage.
“We have games on the opening day of the World Cup, so when the Premier League is over, our plans are very clear and we need to come to Qatar as soon as possible.”
