Super Marshal

　　 It's the annual UEFA Champions League group stage draw again.

　　 At the end of August every year, fans all over the world will turn their eyes to the Grimaldi Convention Center in Monaco.

　　 This day, here, will determine the situation of the Champions League in the next six months, and at the same time choose the player of the year.

But this year, the player of the year does not have much suspense. Iniesta, who helped Spain win the European Cup and was elected as the best player of the European Cup, will receive this award. This is recognized by everyone and it is also a big game. The unspoken rules of the year.

　　 What really caught everyone's interest was the draw of the Champions League.

After the final round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers, UEFA announced the updated European Championship points for the 32 UEFA Champions League group teams, and divided them into four grades according to the level of points, which became the UEFA Champions League group stage draw. in accordance with.

According to the European war points, this rule has been criticized for a long time, but UEFA has not yet come up with strong reform measures, so this year has to continue to follow this rule, but everyone is surprised. I found something embarrassing and helpless, but very much looking forward to.

　　 Once led by the cold, won the Champions League and the Grand Slam, Manchester City, which was invincible in the Premier League last season, was only ranked in second gear, and AC Milan from Italy was also in the second gear.

The overall decline of Serie A is the general trend. AC Milan just broke the news not long ago. The sales of season tickets for the new season is only 20,000, which is a record low. It is 10,000 less than last year. This shows that AC Milan Milan fans distrust the home team and hope to urge the Rossoneri to sign in.

　　 The camel is thinner than the horse, and AC Milan is still a traditional giant, no matter what.

If the second-tier team can be considered excusable, then it is absolutely unreasonable to arrange the Europa League champion Paris Saint-Germain in the third gear. The alpine team is invincible in the Europa League and Ligue 1. Invincible, a strong team that has invested nearly 500 million euros in two years has been ranked in third gear because of European points?

　　Who wants to meet Paris Saint-Germain?

What’s even worse is that in addition to Paris Saint-Germain, Serie A giants Juventus are also in the third gear, Lille’s giants Lille, Turkish giants Galatasaray, Dutch giants Ajax, and this summer have invested. Zenit St. Petersburg, with a transfer of more than 100 million euros, is in the third gear.

　　 What is even more suffocating is that in the fourth gear, where the strength should be the weakest, there are still two really strong teams lurking, namely Bundesliga's Dortmund and La Liga's Chinatown.

Last season was the first time Chinatown played in the Champions League. As a result, it reached the Champions League semi-finals in one fell swoop. In the end, it was lost to Bayern Munich. This created a very interesting phenomenon. Others’ European war points were all counted in the past. Five years, but Chinatown’s European war points are only counted for one year, and can only be ranked in the fourth tier.

　　 The same situation is the Bundesliga's Dortmund, Klopp's team is equally strong, but it is ranked in fourth gear.

Everyone knows that this season’s UEFA Champions League will become more intense than ever, and all players will come together. Every game in each group may be a life-and-death battle. This greatly enhances the gold content and influence of the Champions League, but at the same time. Let all participating teams look like a big enemy, trembling.

　　 The Champions League has become fierce, and its influence has increased, and the benefits it brings are naturally greatly improved.

With the end of the past three-year contract, starting from this summer, UEFA signed a new three-year contract from 2012 to 2015 with sponsors and broadcasters. The revenue has greatly increased. The team's income has also been improved.

All thirty-two teams that enter the group stage will receive a fixed appearance fee of 8.6 million euros. This is only the appearance fee, and then there will be other benefits such as winning bonuses. It is expected that the Champions League champions this season The bonus income will be close to 40 million euros. If the market revenue shared by the broadcast is included, it is expected that the winning team will receive at least 50 million euros in income.

It’s like Chinatown, playing two play-offs, the appearance fee is 2.1 million, plus the appearance fee of the six group matches, 10 million euros will be credited to the account, which is equivalent to Griezmann’s transfer fee. , Don’t make a profit.

　　 Therefore, many European giants, including Arsenal, attach so much importance to the Champions League.

　　It is foreseeable that with the fierce competition in the UEFA Champions League, the attraction and influence will increase, the future revenue of the UEFA Champions League will continue to rise, and the benefits that the participating teams can share will also continue to increase.

　　 This is also the core reason why Chinatown decided to participate in the Champions League.

　　…………

The draw ceremony was still presided over by the Secretary General Infantino. As usual, the ambassador of the final venue, McManaman, attended the draw. He will be responsible for drawing out the groups. The drawing guests for the four teams are former Manchester United star Dennis. Law, George Weah, Gullit and Cannavaro.

　　 The first gear draw was the least suspenseful, but from the second gear, the lottery began to become tense. By the third gear, it can basically be said that the heartbeat has accelerated, and there are a lot of exclamations.

I don’t know if it’s the good luck brought by the high cold, or is it true that, as some people say, there is a shady lottery. UEFA intends to let the strong teams avoid Paris Saint-Germain and try to save the wonderful games to the knockouts, so Ligue 1 The luck of the wealthy is so good that it blows out.

Draw three opponents are not strong, Porto of the Portuguese Super League, Dynamo Kyiv of Ukraine and Dynamo Zagreb of Croatia. Although these three teams are not weak, they are better than Paris Saint-Germain. Up, it is really powerless to stop the Ligue 1 giants. Group A can almost be said to be the most disparity in strength among the eight groups.

However, Chinatown, which performed exceptionally well last season, failed to have any luck in the draw this season and was drawn to Group C. The group leader is Arsenal, the second gear is AC Milan, and the third gear is Zeni St. Petersburg. special.

　　 Although there is no top-notch team, they are all strong.

Needless to say, the Gunners, Wenger’s team is a stable member of the Champions League semi-finals. Although they have the title of the Premier League’s four madmen, Chinatown still needs to be fourth in the same league in front of Arsenal. It's short.

AC Milan is not doing well recently, but the lean camel is bigger than Marathon. The rich team is the rich team. At least the foundation is still there. In addition, the Serie A team has always been in La Liga. Therefore, Chinatown encounters AC Milan. A big fight.

As for Zenit St. Petersburg, who is third in the group, they are all old acquaintances. They met in the Champions League group stage last season, and they were inextricably played. What's more interesting is that he played for Porto last year and made it for Chinatown. Many troubled Brazilian center Hulk also switched to Zenit St. Petersburg this summer.

　　 This can really be regarded as a narrow road to Yuanjia.

　　 For Chinatown's UEFA Champions League group stage draw result this season, Gao Han is quite satisfied. Basically, it can be said to be quite satisfactory. He was not drawn into the dead group, but he was not as lucky as last season.

The UEFA Champions League has always favored stable and mature teams. If Arsenal and AC Milan were drawn last year, Chinatown would probably be less fortunate, but this year the Gunners and Rossoneri are drawn. Gao Han feels that Chinatown may not be necessary. There is no power to fight.

The first is that the overall tactical framework of Chinatown has always been stable. The ups and downs were so big last season, mainly because the management had some problems in the decision-making level, or it was not mature enough, which caused the entire central axis of the team to be taken out at the same time. , Lost the mainstay, causing ups and downs and turbulence in the team's performance.

But this summer, although he also sold four players, Aubameyang left the team and brought in Griezmann. Although his scoring ability declined, Hazard, Isco, De Bruyne and Phil Mino and other players have become more mature, especially after a season of tempering in the Champions League, the player's strength has improved significantly.

Herrera left the team, but Isco, Cork, Verratti and other players rose, Rakitic stayed on the team, coupled with the improvement of Ilya Ramendi, and the addition of defensive player Kanter, Chinatown’s The strength of the entire midfielder has not been weakened, and it can even be said that it has improved.

Relatively speaking, the least impact is the departure of the left and right full-backs. Danilo and Alex Sandro have taken over the main positions. It is natural that they have played for the team for many years without any problems, while Montoya And Moreno will be a powerful complement to the two wings. Coupled with the growth of Varane, DeVry and Umtiti, Chinatown's defense will remain strong.

　　Under this situation, Gao Han is convinced that Chinatown is not without the strength to compete for the right to qualify in the UEFA Champions League group stage.

　　 Of course, there is nothing to brag about.

Last season’s Champions League semi-finals were full of chance. Both the group stage and the round of 16 draws were good. The quarterfinals smashed against the same country, Barcelona, ​​who knew everything, stopped in the semi-finals, lost to Bayern Munich, and Chinatown was also defeated. Glorious.

　　 But this season, it is difficult to replicate the success of last season.

　　 Instead, it was Paris Saint-Germain. The draw of this group stage was indeed too lucky. Gao Han had enough confidence and confidence to be able to qualify for the first place in the group stage and strive to get a better position for the next knockout stage.

　　…………

　　…………

　　 As expected by the cold.

　　 As soon as the result of the UEFA Champions League group stage draw was released, it immediately aroused the attention and hype of the media all over the world once again, and conspiracy theories were once again uproarious, especially the rumor that UEFA favored Paris Saint-Germain.

　　The reason is very simple. The head coach of Paris Saint-Germain is Alpine, who has a close relationship with UEFA Platini, and Platini is still French, so he naturally favors the French team.

What's more, many media reporters waited expectantly for Paris Saint-Germain in third gear to draw Chinatown in fourth gear~www.readwn.com~. As a result, the two teams were not drawn together. Let them have to suspect that there is shady.

In this regard, Chinatown Technology Chief Cantarello said in an interview with the media that the result of this draw is fairly acceptable, "We are a young team and lack the experience of the Champions League, so we are very happy. Competing against strong teams playing different styles of football is an exercise for us."

Cantarello was also asked about the prospects of the UEFA Champions League group stage this season. "We are a team in the fourth gear and must forget the results of last season, because this season is a brand new start, and we have encountered Arsenal, AC Milan and even Zenit St. Petersburg are all strong teams that have long been famous in European football."

　　 "We are eager to stand out from the group stage, but the premise is that we must do our best and show our best in every game in order to meet the challenge of the Champions League."

　　 And Gao Han refused to answer all questions related to Chinatown. He only expressed that Paris Saint-Germain is confident to stand out from the group stage. At the same time, he also said that the European Super Cup to be held tomorrow is a big test for Paris Saint-Germain.

　　 "Manchester United is the first truly top European team we have encountered in the past year. We must do our best."...
