Chapter 365： Reversed Champions League and UEFA Cup

On the second lineup, Knotts County still played Schalke o4 at home without temper. This time, the media were thankful that they did not sit crooked **** before the game, otherwise they must have cheeks hurt again!

At the end of the game, Schalke o4 players felt hot on their faces, even if they wanted to exchange jerseys with Notts County players, and the Schalke o4 coach who was still talking before the game even shook hands with Loew I forgot all this courtesy, and ran back to the visiting team's locker room.

Naturally, after the game, the reporters began to humiliate again and again. Every opponent who underestimated Knotts County before the game but was finally hit by the face will be hit again by the crit.

But for Knotts County, it’s really irrelevant to win big or not, as long as you win the game, you’ll have to pass this game. In addition to the four injured players, other physical conditions are not good. The players can also adjust well, the lineup is still quite combat, and there will never be a team that makes Loew scratch his head.

After the elimination of Schalke o4, the UEFA Cup defending champion Notts County broke into the 32 of the UEFA Cup, plus 8 clubs that fell into the UEFA Cup from the third place in the UEFA Champions League virtual match, this season's UEFA Cup The top 32 teams are also officially released.

The five major league teams that stood out in the second round of the UEFA Cup, Ligue 1 has Bordeaux and Auxerre, England has Manchester City, Liverpool and Newcastle, La Liga has Barcelona, ​​Valencia and Villarreal, Bundesliga has Roma and Perugia and the Bundesliga have Dortmund, all in the top five teams in the middle league.

Coupled with the big teams in second-tier leagues such as Atletico Lisbon, Benfica and Feyenoord, it can be said that the UEFA Cup this season is very orthodox, and there are almost no strong teams eliminated. It is likely that the field minister was a game where Mars hit the earth.

In fact, a game with a strong team or even a giant is not necessarily a wonderful game. One side is a giant and the other is a weak player. There is a high probability that it will be a dedicated kill. Although there may be a lot of goals, the intensity is far less intense. Two teams of similar strength are fighting.

Not only does the UEFA Cup itself have no upsets, so that most of the strong teams are retained, and the ups and downs of the Champions League makes the eye-catching virtual game result. This season's UEFA Cup has become a cup that is not inferior to the UEFA Champions League.

This is the first season of the UEFA Champions League restructuring and the two rounds of virtual matches, and in the only round of virtual matches, the clubs can be described as magical, creating the most water-saving Champions League knockout.

In Group A, although the always stable Bayern have not been able to overwhelm the Ligue 1 overlord Lyon, but the two clubs joined hands to advance to the Champions League knockout and the Soulmen Celtics kicked into the UEFA Cup.

Group B, originally Arsenal and Inter Milan were the top hotspots. I am afraid that no one would think that the accompanying Moscow Locomotive and Dynamo Kiev will have much chance to qualify, but the final result is to let the Nerazzurri Fans cried into tears...

Arsenal's results are as stable as ever, and they have secured a place to appear. They advanced to the UEFA Champions League round of 16 but Inter Milan fell off the chain. In the confrontation with Moscow's locomotive, two rounds were even and one loss. Given to the opponent, you can only play the League Cup.

In the c group, Monaco, PSV and La Coruna are almost the same in strength. Anyone can appear. The final result is also the same. Monaco has 11 points and the La Coruña has 1o. Eindhoven also scored 10 points, and finally, with the advantage of the number of goals in the direct confrontation between the two, Lako was lucky to advance to the top 16 of the Champions League, while the Dutch giant Eindhoven can only go to the UEFA Cup with loneliness. .

In Group D, the giant Juventus was hit by the Dark Horse Royal Society and Galatasaray, and the virtual game fell off the chain. It was directly eliminated from the virtual game and had to go to the UEFA Cup.

In Group e, Stuttgart, the German Youth Guard who had played against Knotts County last season in six rounds of virtual matches, also ranked third, and was eliminated from the Champions League and entered the UEFA Cup sequence.

In Group F, Real Madrid steadily occupies a place. Although Mourinho’s Porto lost two cores in the backcourt, they still stumbled to kill the virtual match. The former Champions League winner Marseille, only Can be dropped into the UEFA Cup.

In Group G, Chelsea, led by Ranier's interest rate, was promoted strongly, the dark horse Sparta also successfully advanced as a virtual second, and Serie A powerful Lazio was tragically dropped into the League Cup.

The last virtual rule is the most competitive. Before the final round of the game, every club has the hope of promotion, and even the virtual first promotion hope. Finally, after two battles, Ajax and Celta teamed up to make ac Milan into the UEFA Cup, a classic.

As a result, more than half of the top 16 in the UEFA Champions League is not a strong team in the traditional sense, so the water makes UEFA a little bit self-confident.

In contrast, in the 32 Cup of the UEFA Cup lineup, it is much more star-studded, even if there is a slight lack in the top-level strength, but the average quality even exceeds the Champions League, which is a miracle.

The bookmaker is very busy. In the latest odds of winning the UEFA Cup, Serie A giant Juventus ranked first with a strong lineup and a big name, while AC Milan and Inter Milan are two weak rivals in the same city. Ranked second in terms of advantages No way, who made the three Serie A giants all famous European 6 giants, but they have a higher level of the Champions League not to play, they must come down to the league Cup play, who can compete with them!

But the funny thing is that all the top three Serie A northern teams have fallen into the UEFA Cup. As a result, there is no team in the top 16 of the UEFA Champions League, and in the top 32 of the UEFA Cup, Serie A actually has six teams... ...

And the three Serie A giants are followed by the defending champions of the UEFA Cup Notts County. The odds of Notts County are even higher than that of the giants Liverpool, which fully shows everyone’s expectations for the defending champion.

No wonder everyone thinks that Notts County is more likely to win the championship, but they are the leaders in the British standings. Even the exaggerated arsenal of Arsenal can only chase the butts of Notts County, even the top four in the league. Where is Liverpool not going to be qualified to shake the status of Notts County!

Well, David admits that he didn't expect the road to the Knotts County Defending League Cup to be so difficult, but to think about the exaggerated UEFA Champions League semifinals this season, then nothing is impossible. (To be continued.)
