Episode [394]: This Is Definitely a Secret Operation
CSKA Moscow drew Sevilla!
Zhong Cheng immediately turned around and stared at Alex Ferguson with a smile, and immediately said: "How about it? I said we won't go to Moscow, right? You still don't believe it!"
Alex Ferguson snorted: "That's because AC Milan is waiting for you!"
Zhong Cheng glanced at Alex Ferguson lightly and said, "Let's just watch and see who draws AC Milan?"
Alex Ferguson immediately said: "Then let's take a good look!"
The next step is to draw Lyon's opponents. The remaining teams are likely to be drawn. I don't have any avoidance principles. Real Madrid, Leeds United and Manchester United are currently ranked first in the group. Team, these three teams Lyon will not avoid.
Zhong Cheng suddenly said: "Don't have too high hopes. If my guess is right, Lyon should be drawn against Real Madrid!"
Alex Ferguson was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slightly. There are also many grievances between these two teams. If calculated based on points of view, the chances of these two teams being drawn together are much higher. .
Sure enough, UEFA did not disappoint Zhong Cheng and Alex Ferguson, and Lyon was drawn against Real Madrid.
Lyon were drawn against Real Madrid!
Many people at the scene were making a fuss, this was so shady!
This is definitely a behind-the-scenes operation. Look at the previous games between Inter Milan and Chelsea and Bordeaux and Olympiakos. This is absolutely shady, naked shady!
Zhong Cheng and Alex Ferguson looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They guessed it right.
It seems that there is no suspense in this lottery ceremony at all. Just let them guess by themselves. They are still slapping people, which is simply fooling people!
Zhong Cheng turned his head at this time, stared at Alex Ferguson seriously and said: "Congratulations Sir Alex Ferguson, you are going to play against AC Milan!"
Alex Ferguson immediately said: "Fart! Your Leeds United team is going to play against AC Milan!"
The next opponent to be drawn is Porto. To be honest, both Alex Ferguson and Zhong Cheng hope to draw this team. Whoever draws the Porto team will automatically have an opponent for the remaining team, which is AC Milan. This is really a world between heaven and earth!
Now let’s see who goes to heaven and who goes to earth.
Alex Ferguson said to Zhong Cheng: "Loya, I think you should bless me!"
Zhong Cheng chuckled and said: "Of course I have to wish you Manchester United team, I want to wish you Manchester United team good luck in the future. After all, you are facing AC Milan. You can't do it without good luck!"
Alex Ferguson snorted coldly and said nothing.
Zhong Cheng's eyes were fixed on the rostrum. Every move Infantino made at the scene touched the hearts of countless people. Please hurry up. What are you doing?
At this moment, Infantino slowly unfolded the note in his hand, glanced at it secretly, and immediately showed a surprised expression.
The hearts of everyone present were lifted up by this guy. This guy is really a drama star.
Just as everyone was holding their breath, Infantino turned the note in his hand, and everyone at the scene saw the name - Leeds United!
Leeds United were drawn against Porto!
Zhong Cheng laughed, turned directly to Alex Ferguson and said: "How is it? My Sir Alex Ferguson?"
Alex Ferguson's face was ashen, and he didn't look like Tori Zhongcheng at all. His eyes were fixed on the stage. He really didn't expect that their Manchester United team would actually be drawn against AC Milan. It's all this damn guy Zhong Cheng. If it weren't for his curse, how could their Manchester United team be drawn against AC Milan?
Damn crazy Loya!
Although the final match result has come out, the process still needs to be carried out. Soon, Infantino took out the last small ball, unscrewed it, took out a folded piece of paper, slowly opened it, and then turned the paper over for everyone to see. Clearly, it does say - Manchester United!
In other words, Manchester United is going to face AC Milan.
When Alex Ferguson saw this, he swore directly and said: "Fake!"
At this point, the drawing ceremony for the 2009-2010 UEFA Champions League knockout round of the top 16 has officially ended. The specific drawing results are as follows:
Stuttgart VS Barcelona, Olympiacos VS Bordeaux, Inter Milan VS Chelsea, Bayern Munich VS Fiorentina, CSKA Moscow VS Sevilla, Lyon VS Real Madrid, Porto VS Leeds United and AC Milan VS Manchester United.
This is the matchup list that will eliminate Caesar in the top 16 of the UEFA Champions League this time.
As soon as the lottery results came out, a conspiracy theory was reported all over Europe and even the world. They all claimed that the draw ceremony was completely controlled by UEFA, and that this was a secret operation by UEFA.
This time, UEFA still wants Premier League teams and Serie A teams to fight to death, obviously to protect the Bundesliga and La Liga teams. UEFA does not want to see the Premier League continue to be so fierce. They want to suppress the Premier League teams.
Of course, UEFA really doesn't like Serie A teams and lets Serie A teams fight against Premier League teams. You see, the Milan duo are going against Chelsea and Manchester United, the strong teams in the Premier League. Isn't this going to destroy the teams in these two leagues?
You are looking at the opponents of the three teams in La Liga, Barcelona against Stuttgart, Sevilla against CSKA Moscow and Real Madrid against Lyon. Isn't this a direct submission and the three teams advance to the quarterfinals?
There is also the Bordeaux team. This team from France was also walked and was drawn against a very, very weak team. Why did Bordeaux face so many strong players and they couldn't draw them, so they chose the weakest one? What about one of the opponents?
Obviously, someone was behind this!
Looking at Fiorentina, how miserable this team from Serie A is. They directly faced the Bundesliga class leader Bayern Munich. From here you can see how much UEFA dislikes Serie A teams. .
Both the Milan duo and Fiorentina are facing super strong opponents. It is really possible that they will all be killed in this round of the game. Even if they don't have the entire lineup, they will still consume the Premier League teams. This really kills two birds with one stone.
Now the media in the British mainland and the Apennine Peninsula are crazily criticizing UEFA and cursing Platini. This damn guy is operating in secret and avenging private revenge.
Yes, Platini's credibility was severely impacted at this time.
Many people claim that Platini is finished. The next UEFA president will definitely not be Platini. This damn guy is simply a disgrace as the president of UEFA.
Anyway, the British media and the media in the Apennine Peninsula have no good impressions of UEFA!
The media of other national teams also have some doubts about this draw, but overall, they still think it is very good.
After the draw ceremony, media reporters frantically flocked to the head coaches of these teams.
Zhong Cheng was also surrounded by reporters from these media, interviewing him.
Zhong Cheng said this to reporters: "To be honest, I don't have much to say about this draw. Because what I want to say, many reporters can say it. For this time I think the result of the lottery is pretty good!”
Leeds United's opponent is Porto, which should not be difficult for Leeds United.
But who can guarantee that the Porto team will not suddenly rise and be upset?
Zhong Cheng said: "I don't know much about my opponent Porto. After returning, our club will immediately gather confidence about this team. Now that we are facing them, we must understand the opponent well. After all, our goal is to advance to the next round!”
Some media reporters asked: "Mr. Loya, is your club's goal to defend the UEFA Champions League title?"
Zhong Cheng was slightly stunned. He really didn't expect anyone to ask such a question.
Zhong Cheng immediately said: "I really haven't thought about this, I really haven't thought about it. We have only reached the top 16 now, and it is too early to talk about this. Now our goal for Leeds United is to play well. In every game, where can we go? Let’s talk about it later!”
Many media reporters feel that Zhong Cheng has little confidence. It seems that Leeds United is in doubt this season. Leeds United will not succeed this season, right?
Zhong Cheng did not continue to talk nonsense with these media reporters. He led Julia Oliveira, Green Nethercott and others to board the flight to England.
On the plane, Zhong Cheng said to Green Nethercott: "From now on, you carefully collect information about the Porto team, especially this season's information!"
Green Nethercott said immediately: "Don't worry, boss. This is my responsibility, and I will never let you down!"
Zhong Cheng has never doubted Green Nethercott's ability to work. He is a very powerful guy. Leeds United's achievement is inseparable from the efforts of Green Nethercott.
Zhong Cheng said directly: "You should be very busy at work next, because we are going to participate in the World Club Cup soon, and we also need you to collect the information we need!"
Leeds United won the UEFA Champions League last season, and they are going to participate in the World Club Cup. In the past few days, they will leave England to play in the World Club Cup.
Green Nethercott immediately nodded and said: "Understood!"
Zhong Cheng believed in Green Nethercott very much. He immediately patted Green Nethercott on the shoulder and said, "You should have a good rest first. You will be busy in the future!"
Green Nethercote nodded immediately to show that he understood.
Then Zhong Cheng lowered his head and looked at his notebook, which recorded their recent Leeds United schedule. It was going to be a very, very busy day for Leeds United.
This season, Leeds United's game tasks are very heavy!
