Chapter 410 Winning the lottery
In fact, Atletico Madrid is really sad.
The Sheets have always belonged to the ranks of the veteran teams in La Liga, but since the time entered the new century, Atletico Madrid's performance has been ups and downs, and they even struggled in the second division for a while.
After returning to the top league, his performance has improved a lot, and he can often reach the middle and upper reaches, even the top six.But to reach the top four in the league, there are not many opportunities to participate in the Champions League.
In this way, if you miss the UEFA Champions League for a long time, naturally the Champions League points will not be high.This time, they were included in the fourth tier of teams.This led to the "tragedy" of their Champions League group draw this time.
The top three teams in Group D have been determined before, Liverpool, PSV Eindhoven, Marseille, these three teams are the leaders in their respective leagues.Needless to say, Liverpool has not won the Premier League crown since the establishment of the Premier League, but it is a strong contender for the league title every season, and the title of "King of Cups" is not just talk, the famous "King of Cups" Miracle Night in Istanbul", it has only been a few years since now, and Liverpool's power in the Champions League is growing!
Needless to say, Eindhoven and Marseille, one is the Eredivisie champion last season, and the other is the runner-up in Ligue [-], their strength can be imagined.Even if it is not as good as Liverpool, it is not far behind.
The so-called group of death does not mean that there are many rich teams in the group, even if the competition is fierce and fierce. Even if there are two rich teams in a group, and the other two teams are of average strength, there is almost no suspense in the result. Group of Death.
What makes the group of death really speechless and helpless is that the strengths of the several teams in the group are almost the same. Everyone has the possibility of qualifying, and everyone is in danger of being eliminated.
The gathering of these three teams of similar strength in the same group is enough to make the heads of the three clubs jump and scold their mothers. Now with the addition of an equally strong Atletico Madrid, this is completely killing people Rhythm.
There is nothing to say, this group is destined to be extremely competitive and cruel.
"It's really unlucky enough!"
Fan Bizhuang sighed in this way, and did not pay attention to others, because it was the turn of Villarreal's fate to be announced.
"Villarreal! Alborg!"
With such a sound, the ball of paper with the names of Villarreal and the Danish team Aalborg printed on it was put into Group E.
This result made Pellegrini and Fan Bizhuang both heave a sigh of relief. It wasn't too good or too bad, at least it was much better than Atletico Madrid's "horrific treatment".
Among the two teams that have come out of Group E, the defending champion Manchester United is undoubtedly the biggest favorite to qualify for the group, and it is also the top favorite in the group.
The other team is the Celtics, the champion of the Soviet Super League. They are strong, but not top-notch.
Pellegrini asked himself, his team is not very comparable to Manchester United, but there are two places to qualify for the group stage, there is no way to compete for the first place, No.2 can go for it, Celtic Human strength is not necessarily stronger than Villarreal.As for Alborg, he was naturally ignored by the Chilean coach.
In general, the results of this grouping are still within the acceptable range. Pellegrini smiled on his face, secretly thinking that his devout prayers were indeed very effective.
On the other side, Leixi Nuo cast a look of envy and hatred at him.Four La Liga teams participated in this season's UEFA Champions League, and only his team was the saddest. Needless to say, Real Madrid and Barcelona, even if they are in the death group, it is a headache for other teams. With their strong strength, as long as It's not a convulsion, no matter what, they have a share of the qualifying places.
Villarreal's grouping results are also very good, at least much better than Atletico Madrid.
This is simply blood spurting, your sister, why are we so unlucky!I won't talk about Real Madrid and Barcelona. You, a small rural team, are luckier than us. It's really unreasonable!
Facing Resino's disgruntled eyes, Pellegrini suppressed a smile, and gave the other party a gesture of spreading his hands and shrugging his shoulders - I am also very helpless!Hahaha!
Resino couldn't stop rolling his eyes in anger.
The two head coaches, whose combined age is more than a hundred years old, played the game of staring happily. Fan Bizhuang couldn't help laughing and crying. While shaking his head secretly, Ferguson in the front row suddenly turned his head. She nodded towards him with a narrow smile on her face.
Fan Bizhuang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what the other party meant.
"Little guy, I didn't expect the joke at the door to come true. This time, we will face each other face to face."
Although he understands the meaning of the opponent's eyes, Fan Bizhuang also understands that in the eyes of the mighty Manchester United, Villarreal may not be regarded as a real opponent. "Fall a fall", without him, Ferguson must use practical actions to tell himself that Villarreal can't give you a stage to display your talent, so you... come to my bowl quickly!
Fan Bizhuang gave him a fearless and firm look, but his peripheral vision inadvertently glanced at the young man beside Ferguson. C. Luo's face was still full of arrogance and brilliance that could not be concealed. With a smile, he just came to the stage to accept the award more than once, which is the time when he is full of ambition.
"Don't know who I am?"
"It doesn't matter, I believe you will meet soon!"
Fan Bizhuang curled his lips, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
.....................................................................................................................
Fan Bizhuang did not give Aragones a chance to talk. After the draw ceremony, he and head coach Manuel Pellegrini rushed to the airport immediately and took a flight back to Iberia, Spain.
For Fan Bizhuang, this trip to Monaco is simply a formality to gain some knowledge. He has just emerged in La Liga. He has some fame and influence, but he is still short of covering Europe and the whole world. too far.He was just an ordinary spectator at the awards ceremony.
But for the whole club, the harvest from this trip to Monaco is still gratifying.At least the result of the UEFA Champions League group draw is enough to satisfy most people.
Apart from Manchester United, the other two teams, especially Aalborg in Denmark, do not pose much threat to themselves.The slightly stronger Celtics, Villarreal is not inferior to the opponent in terms of strength.
After returning to the small town, Pellegrini hurriedly started his work. This season, the team has at least been fighting on the third line, domestic cups, leagues, and the Champions League. This is a big challenge for Villarreal. huge challenge.Pellegrini intends to give up the domestic cup competition and let the second-tier team and the reserve team play. Whatever results he can achieve is acceptable, and it is considered as training.
Even though there are only two competitions left, the League and the Champions League, this is not a small difficulty. The goal of this season is to reach at least the top [-] in the Champions League, and the league must also ensure the top four in order to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Pellegrini must make more preparations for the team's situation.
After Fan Bizhuang returned to the small town, he only took a short rest and trained on the training ground as usual.However, because many teammates have left the training base and returned to their respective national teams to report, the training field will inevitably appear empty. Even if some reserve team players are temporarily promoted to the first team to follow training, there will inevitably be a lonely voice.
Ten days passed quickly, teammates returned from the national team one after another, and the training ground once again returned to its former bustle.
However, the two national team games in two weeks have brought a lot of physical and mental fatigue to many players. Naturally, the regular intensity training cannot be carried out normally, so most of the time, the team is playing with Mainly physical recovery training.
Three days later, the second round of the league kicked off, and Villarreal ushered in a door-to-door challenge from Deportivo at the Estadio de la La Coruna.
In this game, most of the players in Villarreal's team were not in good condition. Obviously, they were affected by the "FIFA virus", and their performance was extremely sluggish. For example, Forlan, Rossi and others were sleepwalking. They were not seen throughout the game.
In desperation, Pellegrini used up all three substitutions in only half-time. Forlan and Rossi, including Cazorla, who was also invisible on the field, were all substituted.
Since the state is not good, staying on the court is just a waste of energy and can't help the team. It's better to let these players have more time to rest and adjust.
Fan Bizhuang's performance is very positive, but he is also a bit difficult to support when most players perform regularly.In this game, his number of passes increased significantly, but none of his teammates could seize the opportunity.And he also took a lot of shots. The team had a total of 11 shots, and he alone accounted for a small half, reaching 4 times, and two of them were within the range of the goal frame.
However, his luck is also very average. All the shots that hit the goal frame with both feet were resolved by the Deportivo goalkeeper.
The opponent, Deportivo, did not play conservatively in this game. In a certain period of time, they even played against the guests, overwhelmed the home team on the offensive, and gained a certain upper hand.
Carrying the momentum of defeating the mighty Barcelona in the last round, the high-moralized Super Deportivo did not have any timid thoughts, and their offense created a great threat to the home team.
Although he was in a hurry, Villarreal still hugged his city gate after all.But in terms of goals, until the end of the game, there was no achievement at all.
The final score of the game was 0:0, and the two sides shook hands to make a draw.
Villarreal suffered two consecutive draws in the new season, which is more than that. They failed to score a goal in two games. They were runner-up in the league last season, but the start of the new season was extremely embarrassing.
