European team lost two consecutive Club World Cup games, is it really because they "don t want to play"?

Paris 0-1 Botaforgo and Chelsea 1-3 Flamenco. The European team has been defeated continuously in the Club World Cup, and everyone has begun to look for reasons, such as objective physical fatigue and subjective unwilling to play. Even if the Club World Cup prize is so high, some people say that the club wants to make money, but the players don’t want to make money.

These are all reasons for reversing the results. I have also watched many European team games, and the coach may take the initiative to do some rotations to affect his performance, but I really didn't find any signs of players giving up. Do Real Madrid and Inter Milan players don't want to prove themselves in front of the new coach? Don’t the rotation players in Paris want to perform well?

So is it the cause of physical fatigue? The fatigue at the end of the season is certain, but the past has not affected the performance of European teams in the World Cup. Paris and Chelsea, who have lost recently, are relatively young teams. Logically, young people should have better physical strength and should recover faster.

The truth is that European players are "pampered" (who makes Europe the center of football, and the climate is relatively dry, and they are two worlds under the noon sun in the United States). If they are far away from Europe, their level will naturally decline, especially on the American continent. So far, the European team has won the World Cup championship outside of Europe, but there are only two times in 2010 and 2014. And 2010 was conducted in South Africa, which was at the same time as Europe. Although Germany won the championship in 2014, don’t forget that Spain, Portugal, Italy, and England did not qualify in groups! ! Can you say that the players from Spain, Portugal, Italy and the United Kingdom lost because they were tired and didn’t want to play? To put it more, Germany can overcome the "local disadvantage" because they have built a very awesome training base, staying away from the world, and being conducive to travel.

Then why did the European team rule for so long in the Club World Cup? The Club World Cup is mainly played in the Middle East, with basically no jet lag in the European team, and the winter weather in the Middle East is pleasant. Even if you fight in Japan, you still have a neutral position. If the Club World Cup is played in the Americas for a long time, the results may be different. In fact, the first Club World Cup was held in Brazil in January 2000. It was not the end of the season. As a result, the championship belonged to Corinthian, who had never won the Copa Libertadores, and the runner-up was also Sao Paulo from Brazil. Real Madrid only won fourth place, while the new European treble champion Manchester United failed to qualify in the group!

South America won two consecutive European games. This does not mean that South American teams are better than European teams. On the contrary, it is because South American teams are worse than European teams that their results have sparked discussion. Bayern vs. Boca in Group C later, Bayern ended the South American team's unbeaten record in this Club World Cup. Bayern not only had the advantage in the field, but also seemed to be the side that took the initiative to win, although it was also not easy to win.

Some people say that the weather in the United States is too hot, and the European giants have just ended the regular season, and their physical fitness and condition have not recovered yet. However, the fact is that the World Cup, European Cup, European Youth Championship, and Olympic Games are all held at the end of the season. These players have been used to it since childhood and are not as crisp as we imagined. Or we can change the perspective. If this Club World Cup was held in Europe and European players could play comfortably, would their performance be much better? Can American teams still perform so well? This can be tested in the future.
