I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Chapter 114: Rival old woman

Although a series of records were ended, Ye Suxuan's heart was relieved because of this: Finally, there is no need to think about when the team will lose!

  Even Ye Su found that the state of some Manchester United players has changed a lot after Manchester United lost.

  Perhaps, these people are in the same mood as Ye Su.

   After the team lost, finally no longer have to think about the winning streak, and finally can face everything with a normal heart.

   Because there is still a full week before the team's next game, Ye Su decided to let the players go out for a good rest in the middle of this week.

   Of course, in order to prevent the players’ minds from becoming wild because of the holiday, he took team group activities, led by the team’s assistant coach team, to Cyprus on the Mediterranean coast for a four-day holiday.

  The place of vacation is Limassol, Cyprus, a small town with beautiful but quiet harbour where Manchester United visited one year ago.

   Ye Su himself failed to travel to Cyprus with the team to enjoy the warm sunshine and beautiful scenery, because he had to go to Switzerland to participate in the Champions League knockout draw.

   After the UEFA Champions League knockout draw, Ye Su had to travel to France to shoot new year's promotional photos for his Dior men's wear.

  ………………

   At 7 p.m. Beijing time, at noon Central European Time, the draw ceremony for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League was held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

   As Manchester United's head coach, Ye Su attended the draw on behalf of Manchester United.

According to UEFA rules, the eight top teams in the group will become the seeded teams in the 1/8 finals, while the other eight second-placed teams will become another one. The eight top teams will play against each other. 8 teams ranked second in the group.

   In addition, there are two evasive principles for the round of 16 matches. One is that teams in the same group will not meet in the group stage, and the other is that teams in the same league will not meet.

   The 8 top seeded teams in the group will get the advantage of away first in the 1/8 finals.

   The eight seeded teams that won the group first in the group stage: Real Madrid, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Zenit St. Petersburg.

   1/8 final unseeded teams: Paris Saint-Germain, Wolfsburg, Benfica, Juventus, Roma, Arsenal, Dynamo Kyiv and Ghent.

According to the principle of avoidance against the round of 16, Manchester United will not meet the opponent team Dynamo Kyiv in the group stage in the eighth-finals. Secondly, Manchester United will avoid the second place in the group from the Premier League. Arsenal.

   In this case, Manchester United's opponents will be produced in the six teams of Rome, Ghent, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Wolfsburg and Benfica.

   Among the six teams, Juventus was runner-up in the Champions League last season, and Paris Saint-Germain has stars such as Ibrahimovic and Di Maria. These two teams are actually seeded teams.

The other four teams, Roma, Ghent, Wolfsburg, and Benfica. Obviously, these four teams are relatively weak. If Manchester United are allowed to choose, they are definitely willing to choose one of these four teams. A certain branch.

  ………………

   The two lucky draw guests are the legendary captains of the two Milan City teams: Paulo Maldini and Javier Zanetti.

   Maldini first drew out the seeded team Bayern Munich, and then Zanetti drew out Ghent.

There was a loud noise on the scene. In the camera, the Bayern Munich boss Hernes showed a smile. Ghent can be said to be the second place in the eight groups and is recognized as the weakest. This is definitely the best draw. .

   Maldini drew out the seeded team Atletico Madrid, Zanetti followed by drawing out the sign and showing it to the audience: Wolfsburg.

   The scene was again noisy, and the two consecutive matches were both strong and weak. If it was a coincidence, it would be too hard to believe.

   Ye Su secretly shook his head, unexpectedly two of the four weakest teams were taken away as soon as they came up.

  ……

   Maldini draws out a sign, expands, and the camera zooms in: Chelsea! Afterwards, Zanetti took out the sign, opened it, and glanced at it. The legendary Inter Milan captain seemed a little surprised, and then unfolded: Paris Saint-Germain!

   Chelsea vs Paris Saint-Germain.

The third match drawn by    was finally a strong dialogue that fans and the media expected.

   Now, although there are still five second-placed teams in the group, in fact, under the principle of avoidance, only Juventus, Roma, and Benfica are left to become Manchester United's opponents.

  ………………

  Mardini: "Zenit St. Petersburg!"

   The camera was shown to Zanetti, the legendary Inter Milan captain reached out to touch the ball, took out a signed ball, twisted it, and then expanded and said: "Benfica!"

   It’s a coincidence that Zenit St. Petersburg, the weakest seed team, drew the second weakest Benfica in the remaining group.

   "This is intentional!"

There is a lot of discussion. This is obviously in line with UEFA's urine. Every year, there will be such a balanced "underdog" confrontation. This can ensure that a team in the non-five leagues can enter the quarterfinals. , In order to highlight the "achievements" of UEFA's support of small and medium leagues.

   In this situation, Manchester United have only two choices~www.wuxiahere.com~ Either meet Roma, or meet Juventus, anyway, they are going to collide with the Serie A team.

   Then, Maldini and Zanetti jointly drew Dynamo Kyiv to Manchester City. Blue Moon can be said to have drawn a good lot.

  Mardini: "Barcelona!"

   Zanetti: "Arsenal!"

   The camera immediately showed the representatives of Barcelona and Arsenal, the former smiled while the latter smiled bitterly.

   Arsenal, which was slaughtered by Bayern Munich 5:1 in the group stage, encountered even more brutal Barcelona in the first round of the knockout round.

  ………………

   Now, the only seeded teams are Real Madrid and Manchester United, and the non-seeded teams are only Roma and Juventus.

   From the perspective of strength, it is best for Manchester United to meet the Roma team. Compared with Manchester United, Roma's strength is indeed much inferior.

   Of course, Real Madrid definitely wants to draw Roma, but Juventus was the runner-up in the Champions League last season. No one wants to meet Juventus so early.

  Mardini: "Real Madrid!"

   The camera has been following Zanetti.

   Zanetti took out the signed ball, twisted it away, looked at the note, and showed an inexplicable smile: "Rome!"

  Real Madrid vs Rome!

   In this case, there is only one team left, and you don’t need to draw lots to know the result: Manchester United vs Juventus!
