Before the UEFA Champions League group draw, Notts County still has a Premier League game to play, the opponent is the Premier League team Newcastle, this time Notts County can send the main force to battle!
At St James’ Park, Knotts County dominated most of the time and scored a goal by Villa near the end of the first half. When the results of the European Golden Globe Awards were about to be announced, Villa also While cherishing every opportunity to play, every goal will add weight to his final stability, and he is still the top player in the Premier League scorer list. He is the player with the highest voice of winning.
However, Notts County's current lineup is still unstable. In the 70th minute of the second half, Ozil was intercepted by the opponent, Newcastle played a quick counterattack, and when passing the ball on the side of the defense, Lesko Especially accidentally pushing the ball into his own gate, Newcastle equalized the score in this way.
Fortunately, this round of Chelsea did not win, the gap between the two teams is still 3 points, and has not expanded.
After this game, Notts County ushered in the draw of the Champions League 1/8 finals. For the first time to play such an important game, Notts County naturally hopes that its opponents will be weaker.
This time, David and Loew came to the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland to participate in the lottery. Qian Shiguang watched a similar lottery in front of the TV. This time he also wanted to check out the live version, and he also wanted to be near Take a closer look to see if UEFA really likes to get messy during the draw.
Usually in such a lottery, the club chairman and coach will not be present. The assistant coach and vice chairman are mostly present. Notts County is the first time to reach the top 16 of the Champions League. The presence of David and Love naturally let them Became the focus of the field.
Those who know or don’t know come here to say hello to David, making David tire of his boredom. He is unwilling to talk to these hypocritical people here, and Loew is also a quiet temperament. The two of them can easily get rid of the crowd and find their own ways. He couldn't help smiling at each other, knowing this, he brought Soriano here, he was good at these things!
According to the usual practice, there will be a UEFA spokesperson explaining the lottery rules. Although there is no change from last season, the official form still has to go.
The group first touches the group second, the same group avoids, the same country avoids, the group first has the advantage of the first guest and then the main schedule.
Soon, the lottery officially began, and the time to decide the fate of the clubs was up!
In the group's first place, all are tough bones, maybe only Leverkusen and Lyon are slightly weaker. For the group's second place, the best result is to win these two teams. .
In the second place of the group, there are also powerful Real Madrid and Barcelona, as well as Bayern and Manchester United. Both are the top giants. Even if they are the first in the group, they are not willing to encounter these strong enemies.
Among the six opponents that may be encountered in Notts County, Loew has already done an analysis with David. The three ordinary strong teams are not afraid. Real Madrid and Barcelona seem to be strong, but Loew is confident that he can eliminate the opponent. What Loew is worried about is the Bundesliga class tyrant Bayern. The German team's tenacious fighting will sometimes appear to be more frightening than powerful skills and tactics.
Of course, Loew is not afraid of Bayern, but if he can meet the strong team later, is it not a good thing for Notts County!
Soon, the two teams in the first group were freshly released, and Manchester United and AC Milan met together!
AC Milan was the Serie A champion last season. Under the control of Ancelotti, his strength was a mess. In David’s previous life, if it was not the magical Istanbul night, Benitez’s team was sheltered by the gods. I'm afraid it was AC Milan who finally reached the summit.
In this way, the two absolute giants' dragon fights appeared on 1/8, which is really a bit difficult to accept. This is definitely a collision of the Champions League final level!
The second group is Porto against Inter Milan. For Inter Milan, this is definitely the signing. After Porto broke into the Champions League final last season, coach Mourinho entered Chelsea and the team’s main lineup was also seriously lost. The decline in strength is obvious, and it is definitely the weakest opponent.
After that, it was Bremen against Lyon. For both sides, this was a satisfactory result. Perhaps this was the least interesting match in the 1/8 final.
However, Leverkusen, who was drawn later, against Eindhoven, also seems to be not too much. The two relatively weak teams met together, which is really uninteresting.
But soon, everyone's interest came up again, because in the next 1/8 finals, the two sides were Barcelona and Chelsea, which is another powerful dialogue between the powerful and the powerful.
Barcelona are on the way to recovery, and Chelsea are the most popular team in Europe. The confrontation between the two is no worse than the match between Manchester United and Milan.
In the draw of the 16 rounds, the strong dialogue seems to have become the theme. The reporters just marveled at the meeting between Barcelona and Chelsea. Here, Bayern was immediately drawn out. Bayern's opponent is the Premier League giant Arsenal.
One is the Bundesliga class bully, and the other is the Premier League giants. The confrontation between the two teams is undoubtedly a Mars-to-Earth confrontation.
Seeing Bayern pulled away, Loew and David were still very happy. At least Bayern did not become the opponent of Notts County. No matter who they faced, Notts County would not have too many fears.
And when the guests pulled Monaco the last two matchups were also completely clear!
Leverkusen VS Juventus
Notts County vs Real Madrid
David never imagined that Notts County would meet Real Madrid in the 1/8 finals. He had expected that who would be met by Notts County, but now this person really appears, and it is still when Real Madrid , David still felt incredible.
Although Florentino is still performing his superstar strategy this summer, the team's performance is still getting worse. The team is too dependent on superstars. In the second half of the league, the superstars' physical fitness can't be eaten!
The Champions League 1/8 finals are played at the end of February next year. By that time, I am afraid that the physical power of the Real Madrid superstars has been exhausted!
Of course, these superstars must be carefully guarded, because they all have the ability to change the game situation.
This sign is not a sign for Notts County, but it is not a sign. It is just an ordinary sign that can not be ordinary. (To be continued.)
