Chapter 853

UEFA's director of competition, Marchetti, drew a blue ball from the second place in the group and opened it to the guests. It was Inter.

Inter manager Fabio Aurelio's eyelids beat a few times and glanced at Manchester United manager David Gill involuntarily.

Although both Chelsea and Manchester United are very difficult to play, relatively speaking, inter still want to play a little weaker Chelsea, rather than playing Manchester United, who has been in a state of extreme performance recently and has Gao Xiaodong. Inter are most aware of Gao Xiaodong's horror.

Then UEFA Secretary General Taylor took out a red ball symbolizing the first place in the group.

The Champions League Championship is the highest honor a club can win. The draw of the knockout match attracted people's attention. Seeing Taylor draw the red ball, the whole venue was staring at his hand.

Especially Manchester United CEO David Gill and Chelsea CEO Ron. Gulley was even more nervous. He wanted to grab the blue ball in secretary general Taylor's hand and open it.

Taylor seems to know everyone's urgent mood, but this guy didn't open the blue ball immediately. Instead, he shook his hand exaggeratively and said: "ha ha, the ball is so hot."

Apart from gill and Gurley, others laughed, knowing that Taylor was deliberately making fun of the rumor that UEFA used temperature to manipulate the draw results.

After washing the floor for UEFA, Taylor opened the blue ball. He took a look at it and showed it to the guests with a surprised smile on his face.

"Ah! It's Manchester United! "

" God! It's Manchester United

"The battle of revenge!"

"The Revenge of Manchester United! This is Gao Xiaodong's fight to go home

"Is this manipulation?"

"Chelsea are so happy

"Chelsea are in the top 8!"

……

The managers and guests of the major clubs in the venue were all talking about it. They envied the good luck of Chelsea and were surprised that the enemies of Manchester United and Inter Milan got together.

Manchester United manager David Gill looks constipated. Although United are not afraid of Inter, it is uncomfortable for him to draw Inter.

Inter manager Aurelio is even more depressed. NEMA, how good it is to play a poor form of Chelsea. He is tough, and he has chosen the hardest one. It's a real leak.

Gilley, the manager of Chelsea, was smiling and quickly reported to Abramovich and Ancelotti. Such good luck came in time, which can finally ease the crisis of the devil's schedule. It's no exaggeration to say that now Chelsea can basically prepare for the quarter finals.

At the Carrington training base, the Manchester United players in the tactics room also blew up the pot.

"NIMA! Finally, we've left the hardest to fight! "

"Black box operation! It's absolutely black box operation

"And yelling on purpose! Nima, this is where there is no silver three hundred Liang! "

"How much did Chelsea give UEFA?"

"Manchester United haven't signed in recent years

"In fact, it doesn't matter to Inter, just do them! Revenge for the Champions League! Ha ha, Xiao Dong, it's not about you

"Xiaodong! You are the man of Manchester United. Don't show mercy to Inter

"Don't complain! The results have come out! Prepare for the war

"Want to win the championship! You have to defeat all the strong enemies! Damn it! Depressed! "

..."

Seeing the indignation of the players and the displeasure of the old players, Ferguson coughed, "don't complain, inter are definitely not easy to play, but we should be afraid of them, not us. The luck is a little bad, but it's nothing. Manchester United didn't rely on luck. Besides, the last 16 draw is not good, maybe the last 8 draw will be good."

What Ferguson said was very flat and generous. He didn't mean to complain at all. The players were very convinced and no longer complained. They all began to discuss how to play against Inter.

Gao Xiaodong was the core of Inter's midfield last season, and he naturally became the target of Manchester United players' consultation.

Although Inter Milan is his old club, Gao Xiaodong is now a Manchester United player. He knows all about Inter's long and short board.

Gao Xiaodong thinks that there are still some inter players. The main reason why he is playing so badly is that the players are not adapted to Benitez's playing style. In addition, after winning the treble, the initiative and fighting spirit of the main players have declined. Gao Xiaodong admits that this is one of the important reasons why he left Inter Milan.

Ferguson listened carefully to Gao Xiaodong's comments and saw that the discussion was still in full swing. He interrupted his disciples and said: "don't discuss now. It will be two months before the Champions League knockout. Now our focus is playing Chelsea. Now we all go back to my dorm and have to train in the afternoon."

The players went back to their dorms to sleep, while Ferguson and the coaching staff didn't even take a nap. They discussed inter for two hours in the tactics room.

……

After the draw of the final 16 of the Champions League, the whole football world is discussing several interesting matches that will start in two months.For any opponent, Lyon may be a good signing, but for Real Madrid, it has become a fatalistic tease. Last season's knockout, the invincible Real Madrid is down at the foot of Lyon, not the last eight, and in the previous four confrontation, Real Madrid has never even defeated Lyon experience. This time, the challenge is in front of Jose. If we can step over this barrier, from the perspective of the Champions League, he will also create the history of Real Madrid.

Barcelona don't care about Arsenal, although they are also very strong. For Barcelona fans, Fabregas, who they are most concerned about, will return to the Nou Camp. Is it a competition or a festival? It doesn't need to be that clear for Barcelona. Arsenal will think they have drawn a dead draw because they have never defeated Barcelona in history. On the contrary, Guardiola's team will be very easy to face, because no matter from the strength or psychological, they have an absolute advantage.

Although Real Madrid vs Lyon and Barcelona vs the Gunners are dramatic, it is no exaggeration to say that the remake of last season's final between inter and Manchester United is the most important match in all the matches with 16 goals and 8 goals.

Inter are in seventh place in Serie A because they are in the second round of the World Club Cup. Manchester United are unbeaten at the top of the list after the 17th round. The two teams get together again this time. It's very difficult for Inter to win against Manchester United if they lose Jose and Gao Xiaodong.

But the generals of Inter are not afraid of Manchester United.

"It was an interesting draw," Moratti said in a telephone interview in Abu Dhabi. I think it's mainly for Manchester United. It's definitely their favorite opponent because it gives them an extra motivation, some elements of revenge. It's normal for Inter to meet Manchester United. As Inter, you have to be ready to face all the tough opponents. Although Inter are not in a good condition now, it's still a little early to say who wins and who loses. After all, the game won't start until two months later

Inter manager Rafael Benitez talked about the draw and said: "I'm sorry I don't have the energy to think about the Champions League because the most important game is the World Club Cup. After that, the most important thing in the Champions League. Do you have to say something? I think it's always fun for fans and players to meet their Champions League final opponents in Madrid a few months ago. Manchester United is a great team, but also a difficult opponent you don't want to meet, because in the Champions League, it's always difficult to deal with a team with a great manager and players. Of course, Manchester United want revenge, who doesn't want to, but revenge on the football field is not easy

United manager David Gill denied revenge, saying: "we have met a strong opponent. I think everyone is looking forward to this game now. I think this battle can bring people's memories back to last year's Bernabeu. Many people have talked about revenge, but I don't think there are so many avenges? I think the biggest impact of that game is motivation. The players who participated in that game are still in the team. They all experienced that defeat. They want to get rid of the shadow of that defeat. Inter core Gao Xiaodong came to Manchester United. I think this is the key factor to decide the outcome

Ferguson is confident against Inter: "I think it's a good signing for Inter. Manchester United have become stronger and stronger now. Gao Xiaodong is more and more adapted to the way the team plays. But Inter are not in good condition now. I think it's the best chance to knock out Inter

Both inter and Manchester United are confident, but judging from the odds offered by the gambling companies, Manchester United are more optimistic.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are the favourites to win the championship, followed by Chelsea and Manchester United, while Inter Milan are ranked seventh, even worse than AC Milan, which is enough to see how the outside world is not optimistic about Inter Milan's victory over Manchester United. Of course, football is round. Even without Gao Xiaodong and murino, Inter Milan's foundation is still there, plus a Benitez who is good at playing Cup games It's not easy for Manchester United to make it.
