0-4! The lucky number one in the World Cup preliminaries is born: Lost all 7 games and ranked bottom of the group. There is still hope for entering the World Cup for the first time.

On October 13, in the European preliminaries of the World Cup, the strong teams Netherlands, Croatia, and Denmark all defeated their respective opponents and took the lead in their groups. The Czech team suffered an upset and lost 1-2 to the Faroe Islands. In other games, 0-4! The lucky number one player in the World Cup preliminaries is born: he has lost all 7 games and is at the bottom of the group. He still has a chance of making it to the World Cup for the first time.

Austria, coached by Ralf Rangnick, defeated the Netherlands in last year's European Cup, beating France to win the top spot in the group, but lost to Türkiye in the first round of the knockout round. In this World Cup preliminaries, Austria was divided into Group H. In the latest game, the Austrian team regrettably lost. Facing Romania in the away game, Austria conceded the ball in the 95th minute. Hagi passed the ball and assisted Gize with a header. Austria lost the game 0-1.

In other games of this group, San Marino lost 0-4 at home to Cyprus. As of now, Austria leads the group with 15 points, Bosnia and Herzegovina is second with 13 points, Romania is third with 10 points, Cyprus is fourth with 8 points, and San Marino is last with 0 points. Among the five teams, Cyprus and San Marino only have one round left, and the other three teams have two games left. Although the San Marino team lost 7 consecutive games in this World Cup preliminaries, scoring only 1 goal and conceding 32 goals, and missed the qualification in the World Cup preliminaries, they still have a chance to advance to the World Cup.

According to the rules, the first place in the group in the World European Preliminaries will go directly to the World Cup, and the second place in the group will participate in the play-offs to continue to compete for the World Cup. In addition, the UEFA Nations League ranking can also determine the qualification for the play-offs, that is, the 4 teams with the highest overall UEFA Nations League rankings in the 24-25 season, but the top 2 teams in the UEFA Nations League group were not ranked in the top two in the world preliminaries. In this "wild card channel", Spain, Germany, Portugal and France in the A-level league will definitely not occupy this qualification.

Judging from the performance of the rest of the UEFA Nations League group leaders in the World Cup preliminaries, the four teams most likely to occupy this spot include Sweden and Moldova, which are at the bottom of the World Cup preliminaries, and Wales and Romania, which are ranked third in the group. But if Romania finally ranks among the top two in the group in the World Cup preliminaries, then San Marino can obtain a supplementary qualification and participate in the World Cup preliminaries play-offs as a wild card.

Romania's opponents in the remaining two games are Bosnia and Herzegovina and San Marino. San Marino definitely hopes that Romania will be ranked in the top two of the group. In this way, their big score loss to Romania will help Romania squeeze out of the top two of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and they will have a better chance of entering the play-offs.

San Marino is ranked 210th in the world, which is the last place. In the last UEFA Nations League D-League, it was in the same group as Gibraltar and Liechtenstein. San Marino ranked first in the group and completed promotion. San Marino, who performed well in the UEFA Nations League, can help them qualify for the World Cup qualifying play-offs and get closer to the World Cup. The gold content of the UEFA Nations League will also be further enhanced.
