Chapter 868 Champions League Grouping

Chapter 868 Champions League Grouping

There was a lot of discussion and support from the outside world, but Fan Bizhuang didn't pay much attention to it.

After the match against West Ham United, because the team won, they had a day off. Taking this opportunity, Fan Bizhuang spent a good day with his girlfriend at home—it was real companionship, except for shopping, cooking, Taking a walk, the two of them didn't do anything, because it was impossible to do anything, and Molina was like a shadow that followed closely, staring at him all the time, which made Fan Bizhuang depressed and ashamed, and he couldn't do anything!

After a brief reunion, it was time to part. Molina and Felisa boarded a flight to Italy under Fan Bizhuang's farewell.

And Fan Bizhuang was not idle, and returned to the Carrington Base to continue daily training with his teammates.

Ferguson did not show up at the training ground, but on the same day, he boarded a plane to Monte Carlo, Monaco. He was going to participate in this year's Champions League group draw and awards ceremony.Leaving with him, as well as the team's captain Neville and the main striker Rooney.

Originally, Ferguson wanted to take Fan Bizhuang to the UEFA Champions League group draw ceremony, but Fan Bizhuang refused. It was one reason to see Molina and Felisa off at the airport, and more importantly, he was interested in going to Monaco to see others He has no interest in accepting the award - he was still in Spain last season, and the team he played for, Real Madrid, performed poorly in the Champions League, continuing the excellent style of "Sixteen Langs in the Champions League".In addition, during that period of time, he happened to be in the trough of his career, and he didn't have any dazzling performances, so this year's Champions League awards have nothing to do with him.

So Fan Bizhuang didn't bother to go there to be a spectator.

And Manchester United's performance in the UEFA Champions League last season can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, neither good nor bad, and it is estimated that they will not be eligible for various awards. Ferguson also knows this, so according to the normal process, he only brought two disciples under his command. , to Monaco.

……

Milan International Airport.

Molina and Felisa walked out of the airport hall.Because the two came to the Apennines for different reasons and had different jobs, Molina also needed to take a bus or train to make a special trip to Sassuolo in the Emilia Romagna region.

In fact, there is no need to be too anxious about the work this time. Molina can spend a few days with his daughter in Milan before dealing with the work in hand. Just settle the matter in hand, and then go to France to find and verify certain things.

Molina hailed a taxi for Felisa, and after telling her to be safe, he was ready to say goodbye and head to the train station immediately.

"Don't worry about me, Mr. Contrales. In fact, my colleagues are already here waiting for me. With them, you don't have to worry about my safety. But you, Mr. Contrares, Do you really not want to stay in Milan for a few more days?"

Sitting in a taxi, Felisa spoke to her father standing outside the car through the window.

"I'm sorry, Felisa, this time things are a little rushed, I need to solve them as soon as possible." Molina thought of an excuse casually.

"Well then, by the way, will you go to England at Christmas? I will go to Manchester, and our family will be reunited in Manchester, okay?"

Felisa asked again with some expectation.

Molina nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, at Christmas, our family will sit around and enjoy the warmth of home. Don't worry, I will wait for your arrival in Manchester."

"That would be fantastic, Mr Contrares, and I'm looking forward to Christmas."

With a bright smile on her face, Felisa waved her hand, and the taxi gradually moved away.

"Christmas? A family? Yes, we are a family, but our family is not complete now... Bella... Bella..."

Watching the taxi gradually disappear into the distant horizon, Molina murmured in a low voice and shook his head. He took out the phone in his pocket and dialed the number of his assistant Victor.

"Hi, good afternoon, Monsieur Contrares, have you arrived in Italy? How is it going? Did you have a good trip?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Victor. I have something I need you to do. Book me a plane ticket to France in two days... By the way, you should be in Paris at this time, right? Don't leave, two days later We met in Paris, I need your help with something..."

"That's not a problem, but...Mr. Contrares, are you sure you can get things done in Italy in two days? If you delay work..."

"I know in my heart, you just need to do your thing well!"

"OK, you are the boss, you have the final say. Then I am waiting for your arrival in Paris!"

After hanging up the phone, Molina let out a long breath, and without any further hesitation, he waved to a taxi and headed quickly towards the train station.

……

Although he did not go to Monaco with Ferguson, Rooney and others, it does not mean that Fan Bizhuang did not pay attention to the draw ceremony this time. The honor is full of expectations.

The World Cup is one of the most valuable intercontinental international competitions, while the UEFA Champions League represents the highest-level club competition in Europe and even the world. To a certain extent, professional players pay more attention to the UEFA Champions League. It is the wish and dream of the players to show themselves on this stage and gain greater honor.

The World Cup is rare, once every four years. Not all players can enter the national team, and not all national teams can enter the World Cup. If you want to gain something on the stage of the World Cup, strength and opportunity are indispensable, and The UEFA Champions League is different. It happens every year. Although this club competition is still fiercely competitive, reaching the top of the club is also the "King of Europe".

Fan Bizhuang won the World Cup, and there is also the La Liga championship in the honor room. Now that he has come to the Premier League, what he pursues naturally becomes the Premier League championship and the Champions League championship. If he can only choose one of the two, Fan Bizhuang More inclined to reach the top of the club.

It can be seen that the stage of the UEFA Champions League is undoubtedly extremely attractive to players. Fan Bizhuang very much hopes to make a breakthrough in the UEFA Champions League in the new environment and new team.

Fan Bizhuang watched the TV broadcast of the UEFA Champions League group draw ceremony at home, and he was slightly relieved by the final group results.

Fortunately, they were not assigned to the cruel death group, and the remaining three teams in the group were not too strong. It is not difficult for Manchester United to break out of the group.

Manchester United was divided into Group C as the first-tier team. In the same group, there are Bat Corps Valencia from La Liga, Scottish traditional giants Glasgow Rangers, and Busasburg from the Turkish League.

Except for Valencia, the other two teams can be said to be evenly matched, and their strength is relatively weaker.And Valencia is too strong. When he was still playing for Villarreal, apart from the submarine, the team that Fan Bizhuang knew best was Valencia. There was no way, Villarreal and Baron West Asia is the deadly enemy in the same district, so he naturally cares and understands him more.

This is also a very interesting opponent. In La Liga, Van Bizhuang was very energetic every time he played against Valencia. He even got the nickname of "Bat Killer". Now that he has gone to the Premier League, he did not expect to meet again in the Champions League. As soon as the lottery results came out, Fan Bizhuang was overjoyed—it seems that Valencia is really unlucky enough. He fulfilled his title of "Bat Killer" in La Liga, and now he left, but the opponent still couldn't escape him. claws.

After watching the grouping of Manchester United, Fan Bizhuang also paid attention to the results of the draw of Real Madrid.After all, it was also his former employer, so he expressed his "concern" anyway.

Compared with Manchester United's "top lottery", Real Madrid's luck is not so good. It can be regarded as being assigned to a "death group". In the same group are Serie A giants AC Milan, Dutch super giants Ajax, and Ligue [-] upstart Auxerre.

In this group, apart from Auxerre's relatively inferior strength and reputation, both AC Milan and Ajax are traditional giants in European football. The best club of the century, but the decline in the Champions League and the league in recent years can be seen by everyone. Although Real Madrid won the La Liga championship last season, with the departure of Fan Bizhuang, Kaka and others, Peleg With Rini's departure, the Bernabeu has ushered in a new owner. Maybe Real Madrid is still in chaos. Even if they are strong, it is only a question of how much they can play.

Therefore, Real Madrid's trip to qualify for the Champions League group this season will not be too easy.

"I hope Real Madrid can be lucky."

For the former club, Fan Bizhuang can only send such a blessing.In fact, until now, he still can't figure out why Florentino let Pellegrini resign. It was Lafayette who invited the Chilean coach to take charge of Real Madrid, but after only one season, he was taken This is really puzzling when Pellegrini led his team to the La Liga championship.

Perhaps it can only be attributed to Florentino's greater ambitions, and Mourinho, who led Inter Milan to create the Treble last season, is more in line with his appetite.

If he is not in his position, he doesn't need to spend so many brain cells thinking about these things. Fan Bizhuang suppressed his doubts and watched the next program on TV.

The best player in the UEFA Champions League last season was awarded to Xavi of Barcelona, ​​the best striker was Diego Milito, and the best midfielder was Sneijder... Obviously, Inter Milan, which achieved the Triple Crown last season, is The biggest winner of this awards ceremony.

Unfortunately, none of this had anything to do with Fan Bizhuang. After watching for a while, Fan Bizhuang turned off the TV.

He has now come to the Premier League and has become a member of Manchester United. All he wants and wants to do is to go further with this team, whether in the league or in the Champions League.

"New environment, new team, new... start!"

With longing and ambition for the future, Fan Bizhuang returned to the bedroom and fell asleep peacefully.

……

Two days later, Fan Bizhuang left Manchester and returned to Spain. After the UEFA Champions League draw ceremony, the leagues of various countries entered a short rest period. Participate in national team competition missions.
