Episode [322]: It’s Really the Same Every Year!

In this way, the UEFA Champions League group draw for the 2009-2010 season is completed, and the results are as follows:

Group A: Bayern Munich, Juventus, Bordeaux, Maccabi Haifa

Group B: Manchester United, CSKA Moscow, Besiktas, Wolfsburg

Group C: AC Milan, Real Madrid, Marseille, Zurich

Group D: Chelsea, Porto, Atletico Madrid, APOEL

Group E: Liverpool, Lyon, Fiorentina, Debrecen

Group F: Barcelona, ​​Inter Milan, Dynamo Kiev, Rubin Kazan

Group G: Sevilla, Rangers, Stuttgart, Uniria

Group H: Leeds United, AZ Alkmaar, Olympiacos, Standard Liege

This is how the group classification is. Obviously, there is no real group of death this season. The worst result is that it does not appear. The only groups that can barely be considered a death group are Group C, Group D, Group E and Group G.

In Group C, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Marseille are considered dead. These three teams compete for the two qualifying places. Obviously, Real Madrid and AC Milan are more optimistic, and Marseille is very uncertain.

The situation in Group D is similar to that of Group C. Chelsea, Lyon and Atletico Madrid compete for two qualifying places. Obviously Chelsea is the favorite. In addition, Lyon will compete with Atletico Madrid for one qualifying spot. .

The situation in Group G can be regarded as a group of death, because there is no super strong team in this group. Sevilla, Glasgow Rangers, Stuttgart and Uniria, it seems that everyone has a chance. The only thing that's close is Yuniria's, but no one can guarantee whether they are dark horses!

Therefore, the situation of this group should be relatively chaotic.

Of course, Inter Milan and Juventus originally wanted to draw Sevilla, but unfortunately they had bad luck and did not draw this relatively soft persimmon.

In this group, I really can’t tell who has the greater advantage. Even Sevilla may not be able to win steadily, because everyone is not sure about Sevilla’s true strength, because they are more Play in the Europa League, not the Champions League.

What kind of performance can Sevilla perform in the UEFA Champions League? No one knows, because it is all a mystery.

Regarding the situation of several other groups, there are not too many doubts in Group A. Bayern Munich and Juventus should join hands to qualify. Bordeaux may be able to fight, but the difficulty is very high. They can just sing "Liangliang" as a gift. To the Bordeaux team.

The situation in Group B is actually relatively complicated. Of course, this complexity does not refer to Manchester United. Manchester United should not surprisingly get a qualifying spot in this group, and the second position in the group will be fiercely contested. fierce.

The three teams CSKA Moscow, Betaxis and Wolfsburg are actually of equal strength. It is possible for anyone to qualify. These three teams will definitely have to give it a try. The complexity of this group lies in the competition for second place in this group.

There should be no suspense in Group F. Barcelona and Inter Milan should join hands to qualify. Dynamo Kyiv and Ruby Kazan should now try their best to fight for the third position with relatively good results in the group and strive to win a European Cup. Qualification for the UEFA Europa League.

Dynamo Kiev and Ruby Kazan are also going to be sent to "Liangliang".

Then there is the group Leeds United!

I have to say that Albertini is really a master!

His approach is really effective. Leeds United has drawn the best draw at the moment. This group of them almost guarantees that Leeds United will advance. Look who are the opponents in this group? Alkmaar, Olympiakos and Standard Liege, these three teams should be difficult to cause trouble for Leeds United. If there are no accidents, Leeds United should advance easily. Then these three teams fought wildly and bloodyly to compete for the second place in a group.

Now Europe is full of these reports about visa cancellation!

Many people claimed that UEFA's draw this year was pretty good. They tried to make every group interesting, and they didn't do it too hard to create a super death group. If that was the case, many people were sure They will shout like crazy and secretly laugh at the operation.

However, even now there are many media claiming that UEFA is operating in secret.

That's because Barcelona and Inter Milan are in the same group, because this summer, these two teams have made earthquake-level transactions. The forwards of the two teams have called, and Ibrahimovic has transferred. Went to Barcelona, ​​while Eto'o moved to Inter Milan.

These two teams have been wildly hyped by media reporters before this.

Now the UEFA Champions League is just to make the UEFA Champions League group stage more exciting. Doesn't this mean that Barcelona and Inter Milan are in the same group?

The grievances between Ibrahimovic and Inter Milan are transparent. Ibrahimovic once said bluntly when he wanted to transfer and leave Inter Milan: "If I stay at Inter Milan, I may not win the Champions League in my life." Championship, so I want to leave Inter Milan. I really have no bad grudges with Inter Milan, I just want to win the UEFA Champions League championship!"

Moreover, Ibrahimovic received many offers later, but he only had one condition for choosing a team, that is, the team must have the possibility of winning the UEFA Champions League.

Before joining Barcelona, ​​Ibrahimovic wildly praised Barcelona's very advanced football method, and also praised Guardiola's very strong and powerful. He believed that Guardiola could lead Barcelona to glory and win the European championship. League champion.

Later, Ibrahimovic really moved to Barcelona.

Eto'o and Barcelona have long since fallen out!

Eto'o first came because he wanted to get more money. Every player from Africa is the same, they are all for money. Sometimes, they really will do anything for money, which of course refers to anything in football, including transfers, putting pressure on the club, or simply choosing to disappear without contacting the club...

Of course Eto'o is the same, he wants to make big money!

At this stage, many teams have extended an olive branch to Eto'o. For example, Manchester City, which is owned by a large consortium, and the Sheffield duo, as well as some wealthy teams in the Middle East, all want Eto'o. , offered a very high salary to Eto'o!

Of course Eto'o doesn't want to leave Barcelona. He is still in his prime and has not yet reached the stage of making money for retirement. He still wants to stay in Barcelona, ​​he is just using these to get higher salary and better treatment for himself.

However, during Barcelona's reconstruction, Guardiola directly stated that he did not like Eto'o's personality, and he asked Barcelona to send Eto'o away. Because he believes that Eto'o is the bomb in the locker room and may explode the Barcelona locker room at any time.

Also, Guardiola believes that Eto'o is not suitable for his tactical style.

At the press conference of the press department when he just took office, he said that he was responsible for sending away Eto'o because he did not want Eto'o.

Therefore, Barcelona made the decision to send Eto'o away early. This is why there are so many teams bidding for Eto'o this summer, such as Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City and Sheffield.

The grievances between Eto'o and Barcelona and Guardiola are quite deep.

Therefore, UEFA has seized on this to attract public attention and let more people pay attention to the UEFA Champions League group stage to see what the showdown between these two teams that exchange forwards will be like. Like?

Yes, UEFA's plan was really successful.

After this grouping came out, sports media around the world were reporting that Barcelona and Inter Milan were in the same group. Everyone wanted to see this game immediately.

Of course, at this time, Italian media reporters were furious.

Because they feel the deep malice from UEFA, which is completely trying to kill Italian football. This season, Italian teams are all assigned to a very bad group. Juventus, Milan and Fiorentina are all assigned to a very bad group.

Of course, it seems that these Italian teams can easily qualify. However, after they qualified from the group, there were regulations to avoid teams in the same league and group, so it is obvious that the Italian teams are likely to play against the Premier League teams.

This is another replica of last season. UEFA made the Premier League and Serie A fight, and then allowed some teams from La Liga and Ligue 1 to advance to the quarterfinals, or even higher.

This is targeting Premier League teams and Serie A teams!

The Italian media is very critical of UEFA, these damn guys are hyping things in secret.

However, Albertini did not care about this. After all, the group they drew is a very simple group. It is very easy for them to qualify, and they may not be drawn to Italian teams. There are many teams from other leagues that can be drawn.

Albertini is very satisfied with the result of this draw, which will give them more energy to deal with the Premier League, League Cup, etc.

After the draw, Albertini immediately left Switzerland and flew back to England.

Because the next night, Leeds United will usher in the fourth round of the Premier League this season. Albertini does not dare to stay here longer. He wants to lead the team to participate in the Premier League.

To be honest, there were many club managers and presidents who wanted to find Albertini at the time.

These people are ready to take advantage of others' danger and poach Leeds United.

Firstly, Leeds United has given away many of its main players this season. Everyone believes that Leeds United has nothing that is not for sale and anyone can buy it. Secondly, Zhong Cheng is now injured and completely ignores worldly affairs. At this time, Albertini decides everything about Leeds United.

They all want to take some players away from Leeds United.

For example, Real Madrid, they still have no intention of giving up on Cristiano Ronaldo from Leeds United. They just want to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid. This is what Florentino means to Real Madrid fans. The promise.

Unfortunately, Leeds United are very determined not to sell Cristiano Ronaldo.

Now that Zhong Cheng is gone, Real Madrid wants to see if they can take advantage of the situation. It's a pity that they didn't even see Albertini's back, let alone want to poach him.

Albertini really doesn't know this. He has now returned to England, and then went directly to the away game to lead the team to prepare for the fourth round of the Premier League this season.
