Chapter 701

March 20, noon, sebena training base, Munich.

In the head coach's office, Gao Han and the members of the core coaching team are sitting around the tea table, skillfully brewing the fragrant tea brought from China. The white smoke is dim, and the fragrance of tea is overflowing and refreshing.

The TV hanging on the wall is broadcasting the live broadcast of the football channel. On the other side of the camera is the headquarters Hall of UEFA far away in Nyon, Switzerland. All the representatives of the top eight teams in the Champions League are gathered together for the next stage of draw.

Different from the previous domestic teams, there are no rules for this draw.

That is to say, any team can meet the other seven teams.

Among the eight teams in the top eight of the Champions League, there are three teams in the Premier League, two in La Liga, one in Bundesliga, one in Serie A and one in Portugal.

From this list of the top eight, we can see the strength of the Premier League team.

Therefore, after the final eight list came out, Europe once again spread the topic of encircling the Premier League.

Gao is not interested in this kind of thing. He took advantage of the rare opportunity to adjust the team and recuperate. He won Bochum 3-0 away with the semi main team and went further in the Bundesliga.

The Bundesliga has played 24 rounds so far. No one will doubt that Bayern Munich will successfully defend their title.

Now more people look forward to in the Champions League, many Bayern Munich fans are looking forward to the team to complete a treble, after all, this season's German Cup draw is also good luck.

And tonight, Bayern Munich will usher in the 25th round of the Bundesliga, the home game against Karlsruhe. Therefore, alpine and the coaching staff can easily sit here and watch the live news.

"You see, David Gill looks a little nervous." Sergio Garcia pointed to the TV and laughed.

In the camera, the drawing ceremony has not yet started. The delegates are familiar with each other and have a good conversation with each other. It's not clear from the high cold that Sergio Garcia can see from which angle David Gill is nervous.

Thomas tuhl said with a smile: "a few days ago, Ferguson gave an interview nervously, saying that the last thing United want to meet is a team from the same country. So, David Gill should be praying for God now."

After hearing this, everyone felt funny.

Ferguson said this at the end of the 29th round of the Premier League, when Manchester United lost 4-1 at home to Liverpool. At that time, it was a bit half joking. However, the strong strong dialogue of Manchester United this season is not particularly ideal.

So far, Ferguson has played five games with the other top four teams. Against Chelsea, it is a draw at home and a win of 3-0. But against Arsenal, it is a 1-2 loss at home. Against Liverpool, it is a 1-2 loss at home and a 1-4 loss at home.

But interestingly, among the other top three, Manchester United's more likely team, Chelsea, has been eliminated by Bayern Munich. Arsenal and Liverpool are the Red Devils' sufferers this season. Of course, Ferguson does not want to meet the same team.

"But to tell you the truth, it's possible that the Premier League will fight in the future Buena Ventura said.

It's not conspiracy theory. There are three Premier League teams in the top eight. It's very likely.

Gao Han didn't mind who to draw, but said with a smile: "I guess most people are looking forward to drawing Porto in their heart now, and Porto is insinuating bad luck, because no matter who they meet, it's hard for them to withdraw completely."

With Porto's strength, if it wasn't for Panathinaikos's lucky draw in the last 16 knockout matches, it couldn't make it to the last eight, and the Portuguese Super League team should be very satisfied with the team's current results.

When Gao Han and his assistants chatted with each other without a word, the lottery ceremony also began.

The ceremony is still presided over by the Secretary General ivantino, and the draw is still in charge of the final venue, the guest of Rome, Bruno conte, who still decides the next schedule of the Champions League.

Although the cold is not particularly concerned about, but a draw time, he is still a little nervous.

The first team to be drawn by Bruno Conte was Atletico Madrid, who was drawn to the top half, followed by gunners and Arsenal from the Premier League.

"The duel between the two teams is very interesting." Gao Han nodded and said with a smile.

Both teams are relatively young, and they are all technical schools, and their playing methods are not conservative. The game will be very good.

What's more, heinks and Arsene are famous tacticians in Europe. They will be wonderful.

The first team to be drawn out in the second game was Ferguson's Red Devils Manchester United.

"I hope it's Liverpool or Barcelona Gao Han laughs rather mischievously.

These two teams are the sufferers of Manchester United. No matter who they draw, it's enough for Ferguson to drink.

As a result, unexpectedly, Bruno Conte pulled out the ball, handed it to ivantino and unscrewed it.

"Liverpool

Gao Han and others gave a Whoa, and then they all laughed.

Ferguson is lucky enough to buy the lottery.

"I should send him a text message to congratulate him." Gao Han laughs.

Said, he really took out the mobile phone, to Ferguson sent a text message, just a few words, "Congratulations, you get what you want."

Soon, Ferguson sent him a message back.

"Good luck with Barcelona, too."

Text message to see the cold shake his head straight smile, Ferguson should now be in the abuse of UEFA conspiracy theory.

However, the three Premier League teams are gathered in the first half of the District, it is really unexpected, a bit like the suspicion that the top three are encircling Atletico Madrid.

Among the remaining four teams, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Inter Milan and Porto, Barcelona and Inter Milan are undoubtedly the most difficult teams to play. If they are lucky enough to win Porto, they should really buy lottery tickets.

The draw on the lower half of the block will start soon.

The first team to be drawn out in the third game is Bayern Munich.

"Who could it be?" Sergio Garcia seems a little nervous.

On the surface, Gao Han smiles calmly, but in fact, he has a little expectation. If he draws Porto, the pressure of Bayern Munich will be much less, and he can concentrate on the next semi-finals.

In the live TV footage, Bruno Conte once again reached into the bowl, took out a small ball, showed it to all the guests and the live TV footage, and then handed it to ivantino.

Ivantino twisted his hands, opened the ball, took out a note from it, looked at it and turned it over with a smile.

"Porto!"

WOW!!!

There was a cheer in the coach's office.

Even though Sergio Garcia and others have already experienced many battles, they are still very happy with the draw.

In the last eight, basically will not encounter the weak team, the only weak team, was Bayern Munich to encounter, this is what kind of luck?

There was no draw for the rest of the match, Barcelona met Inter.

As soon as the result of the draw came out, Gao Han received a short message.

"How much money did you give to UEFA?" Ferguson asked in a text message

Gao Han laughs at the sight, and can imagine Ferguson's depression and resentment at this moment.

How unfair this is.

Porto and Liverpool, it's a big difference.

Bayern Munich draw out this sign, it can be said to be recommended to the top four, is there?

"I want to put some money in. How can we win Porto? I want to touch Liverpool more. How can I be so unlucky? I'm so angry

After texting, he laughed.

Ferguson really didn't reply for a long time. He should have been mad by the cold words.

In the end, the Scot said, "be careful."

"Well, I'll wait for you in the final." Gao Han returns with a smile.

…………

…………

As soon as the result of the draw in the last eight of the Champions League is released, the media all over the world are frying up.

If we say that the media and fans have already prepared for the match in the Premier League, then Bayern Munich are very lucky to win Porto, which will undoubtedly break everyone's eyes.

There are even some tabloid media have said that this is UEFA's secret help to the summit again.

Three major European gambling companies also changed Bayern Munich's winning odds immediately after the results were released.

You know, Bayern Munich has been the number one favorite team to win the Champions League this season since the beginning of the season, and now it is rumored to be recommended to the semi-finals, which undoubtedly makes the Bundesliga giants' odds of winning the championship further ahead.

However, many media believe that Bayern Munich's winning of Porto does not mean that the draw is tricky.

"From the start of the group stage of the Champions League to the knockout of the last 16, Bayern Munich's luck has not been ideal. Their group stage is the most powerful group in the group stage of the Champions League, and Chelsea is also the second best team in the group stage of the last 16. It can be said that before that, Bayern Munich's luck is not ideal."

German Bild that Bayern Munich draw Porto, can only be said to be better luck.

Guardiola's Barcelona beat Prandelli's Inter Milan, which is undoubtedly a very interesting game. Their two teams have a strong cold mark. Guardiola is a disciple of the cold, and many Barcelona players are cultivated and favored by the cold.

As for the relationship between Prandelli and inter and the cold, let alone.

The duel between the two teams is undoubtedly quite interesting.

But the most unfortunate is Ferguson's Manchester United, actually drew the bitter host Liverpool.

Manchester United have lost to Liverpool twice this season, especially in the past. The Red Devils lost to Rafael Benitez's Liverpool 4-1 at Old Trafford, which undoubtedly made everyone more pessimistic about Manchester United.

Ferguson said in an interview with the media, "this is a very bad draw, whether it is the timing, or opponents, are so."

But Ferguson also said in the end, although the team fell behind, as long as everyone works together, Manchester United may not have the strength to compete with Liverpool, and may even reverse the decline of two consecutive defeats this season.

Over the years, Ferguson's Manchester United have always been known for their toughness, and the Red Devils' magic makes this team not to be underestimated at any time.

As for Gao Han, although he won the signing of Porto, he still solemnly said in an interview with Bild that this is not the good luck as the outside world said. Porto is a team with outstanding strength.

"They are the team that beat Arsenal and won the first place in the group. I can't believe it. Why does anyone think that winning Porto is tantamount to walking to the semi-finals?"

"I have to remind everyone that Porto is a very tough and powerful opponent. If we don't go all out and concentrate on the game, then we will probably stop in the last eight

Low key before the game, do not underestimate the enemy, which is consistent with the style of Alpine.

More importantly, he was aware of a bad sign.
