Germany eliminated Russia 2018 and other champions who failed to pass the first round

This afternoon, Germany, the defending team of the world championship, beat all the forecasts after being eliminated in the 2018 Russia group stage after falling into the hands of Korea's South.

Despite postulating as big favorites in the international fair, the defeat in front of Mexico complicated their classification and the Teutonos were outside the knockout stages.

Only Brazil and Italy have reached the bicampeonato World Cup and Germany has joined the list of defending champions leaving the World Cup in the first phase.

Here we leave the list.

Brazil (1966)
At the 1962 World Cup in Chile, Canarinha became a double champion of the international fair by beating Czechoslovakia 3-1.

Later, at Ingalterra 1966, Brazil bid farewell to the competition by finishing third in its group in the first phase, after accumulating two defeats and one win, so that they could not take the triple championship.

France (2002)

At the 18th edition of the World Cup, the Gauls won the championship after beating Brazil 3-0.

Four years later, France could no longer approve his award, as he finished in the last position of his group in the first round after suffering two defeats and only one draw.

Italy (2010)

At the 2006 World Cup in Germany, Italy won its fourth title, the last to date, beating France 6-2.

After that, they ran as favorites for South Africa 2010, but failed to defend their title as they were eliminated in the group stage after finishing with two losses and one draw. .

Spain (2014)

The World Cup on the African continent in 2010, left Spain as champion, who beat the Netherlands in the final.

However, fate put them face to face in Brazil 2014 and the story was written differently. Spain suffered two defeats against the Netherlands and Chile, so it remained in the group stage.

Germany (2018)

The mighty German team was crowned at a perfect pace during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil where one of his most memorable victories was the 1-7 on the hosts and the 1-0 on the 1 st. Argentina, who gave them the title.

For Teutonic preparation meetings, they were postulated as big favorites to reach the bicampeonato, however, a series of surprise defeats left them out of the competition in the group stage.
