Chapter 621 Champions League Death Group?(1/3)

The Champions League group stage is divided into eight groups.

First draw out the seed teams of each group.

A group seed team is the defending champion, Serie A giant Inter Milan;

B group seed ball pair is Ligue 1 overlord Lyon;

C group seed team is Red Devils Manchester United;

D group seed team is La Liga giants Barcelona;

e-group seed team Bundesliga South King Bayern Munich;

The f-group seed team is the Blues Chelsea;

G group seed team is Serie A giant AC Milan;

h group seed team is Arsenal;

After determining the eight groups of seed teams, other teams began to be drawn.

UEFA Secretary-General Infantino is responsible for drawing lots.

Infantino is a Swiss, a lawyer who is proficient in multilingualism.

Infantino joined UEFA in 2000 and became UEFA Secretary-General in 2009.

However, this is the Secretary-General of UEFA and has a very low presence in UEFA.

Because he often hosts lottery ceremonies for major events such as the Champions League and the European Championship, he is well-known by Chinese fans and is nicknamed the "Bald Lottery Brother".

Fans around the world's knowledge of this bald secretary-general is more limited to "the bald man always pulls out the death group with a sly smile"...

The guests at the scene and countless fans in front of the TV watched the balls being taken out of the glass jar.

Open it and show the club name written on it to fans all over the world.

People will make a marveling voice, helplessness, or a 'knowing' smile.

...

Next is the third team draw.

Aston Villa was drawn to Group A, and the defending champion Inter Milan was in the same group.

The camera gave Fang Jue a close-up and Inter Milan coach Benitez a close-up.

Because of Aston Villa's existence, the chance of a death group in their group A is greatly increased.

Especially when there is a super giant Real Madrid in the second-tier team.

Fang Jue's expression was relatively calm, and he could not see his joy or anger.

Benitez frowned.

He felt very familiar with Aston Villa, so he knew better how difficult this team was.

Benitez wrote "Vera" in his notebook, and then drew circles.

...

Next is the draw for the fourth-tier team.

The Eredivisie team Twente was drawn to Group A where Aston Villa is located.

There was a noise coming from the scene.

Twente was the super dark horse in the Eredivisie last season, and this team was the champion of the Eredivisie last season.

In addition, Inter Milan was the three-time champion of the Italian Cup, Serie A and European Champions League last season;

Aston Villa was the double champion of the English League Cup last season and the Premier League champion.

Before the second team was drawn, the group where Aston Villa was in already possessed the characteristics of a death group.

Fang Jue flattened his mouth.

He didn't think Aston Villa was targeted specifically. Aston Villa had low points in the European game and was ranked third in the team, and he had a great chance of entering the Death Group.

Or, to put it bluntly, which group Aston Villa is in, that group is the Death Group.

Of course, UEFA will definitely use Aston Villa's unstable factor to make a big deal.

...

The second team draws the lottery immediately afterwards.

Real Madrid was quickly pulled out.

Then find out the group signing ball.

“g!”

Real Madrid was drawn to the G group where AC Milan is located.

A burst of laughter came from the scene.

Last season, AC Milan was drawn with Real Madrid.

At that time, the game between AC Milan and Real Madrid had a high rating. The transfer from AC Milan to Real Madrid was the biggest highlight.

Unexpectedly, a year later, the two teams were drawn together again.

Moreover, in the eyes of many people, this is another death group born.

This group is AC Milan, Real Madrid, Ajax and Ausselle.

It is crazy to draw AC Milan, Real Madrid and Ajax into a group.

AC Milan won the Champions League in 7, Real Madrid won the title 9 degrees, and Ajax also topped the top four times. The three teams' 20 championship records are enough to make this group full of death.

Although Milan and Ajax are now a bit different from the past, Real Madrid, which has been suppressed by Barcelona in recent years, has just replaced its coach. It is hard to predict what Mourinho can integrate the Galaxy battleship into.

This is a true death group.

...

Fang Jue also laughed out loud with the others. Aston Villa entered the Death Group, there was nothing we could do about it.

However, Real Madrid deserves it. The Galaxy Battleships' European score rankings were not ranked in the top ten and fell into the second-tier team. This is the biggest reason why they entered the Death Group. Who can blame this?

Fang Jue's mood was much better when he saw someone as unlucky as he was.

Subsequently, Bundesliga powerhouse Werder Bremen was drawn to Group A where Aston Villa was located, and there was another burst of laughter at the scene.

This also confirms the name of the group's death group.

The results of the 2010/2011 Champions League group stage draw have come out.

The media are talking about Group A Inter Milan, Werder Bremen, Aston Villa, Twente; and Group G AC Milan, Real Madrid, Ajax, and Aussel; these two groups are the death group, and the competition will be so fierce.

However, in fact, if the strength gap between teams is used as the standard, the death group should first recommend Group B:

Neither Lyon, Benfica, Schalke 04 or Tel Aviv workers dare to claim to be a sure victory, but anyone has the possibility of qualifying from the group.

However, because these four teams are not well-known enough, no one cares about their "death" index.

This is a cruel fact. You are not strong and have no fame. You can't even be "in the news" even if you die.

...

The results of the 2010/2011 European Champions League group draw were settled.

"Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea should all stand out from the Champions League group." After the draw results came out, the British media generally felt optimistic, believing that except Aston Villa, the other three teams were all lucky.

Among the four Premier League teams, Chelsea is recognized as the best team to sign.

No ball in Marseille, Sparta, and Jilina can pose a real threat to the Blues.

If you have to pick the bones in the eggs, it means that Chelsea's two-line schedule is slightly unfavorable. Before and after the second round of the group stage, they will face Manchester City and Arsenal in the domestic league one after another. After the fourth round, they will have to play against Liverpool away.

Manchester United and Arsenal are also good, but some people have also warned them of reservations. Ferguson's good friend, Aston Villa coach Fang Jue, is of Manchester United in terms of size, and two league champions plus one Valencia in a group, so Manchester United is not easy.

The Guardian believes that Fang Jue's concerns are reasonable, because both Valencia, Glasgow Wanderers or Bursa are famous devilish lands at home.

Then, the newspaper asked a question: As the head coach of Aston Villa, you care so much about Manchester United and feel uncomfortable, but you have ulterior motives.

Arsenal, who is in the H Group H with Donetsk miners, Braga and Belgrade guerrillas, has similar problems with Manchester United.

According to statistics, the Gunners have 4 draws and 3 losses for Ukraine, and 2 draws and 3 losses for Portugal, and 5 draws and 3 losses for Portugal. They only had 1 win in the previous four club matches with Serbia.

Although these are all historical data, they will indeed have a certain impact on the players from a psychological level. What's more, there is also "undercover" Eduardo in the Donetsk Miners.

...

Aston Villa was assigned to Group A.

There are also Serie A giants in the same group, the triple-champ Inter Milan, the third place in the Bundesliga last season, and the Eredivisie champion Twente last season.

For Aston Villa, who played the Champions League again after 27 years, this group obviously cannot be easily passed.

Perhaps only Eredivisie champion Twente is slightly weaker, but being able to win the championship with Eindhoven, Feyenoord, Ajax and Alkmaar, which itself shows that this team is very strong.

The media is also looking forward to the prospect of qualifying for the group.
