On Saturday afternoon, Chelsea took the lead to challenge Birmingham away.

Although the possession rate of the ball was as high as 63%, the bus in Birmingham put Chelsea in the first 80 minutes. Zheng Zhi, Lampard and Joe Cole took turns to test Birmingham’s goalkeeper with long shots. But all failed.

It wasn't until the 88th minute that Zheng Zhi sent the ball to Drogba's head through a corner kick. Drogba knocked on Birmingham's gate with a lion shake. In the end, Chelsea struggled to win Birmingham 1-0 in the away game, and the league started with two consecutive wins.

One of the rivals, Manchester United, also made a good start. Manchester United defeated the newly promoted Manovic 2-1 at home. Smith assisted Bellion to score, and since then he has scored his first Premier League goal since joining Manchester United.

Fan Zhiyi's Liverpool defeated Manchester City 2:1 and temporarily climbed to third place in the standings. However, Fan Zhiyi still had no chance to play in this game and sat on the bench for 90 minutes.

Li Yin was very sad.

Bergkamp, ​​Reyes, Ljungberg and Pires each went down, Henry gave two assists, and Arsenal beat Everton 4-1 at Goodison Park.

After two rounds of the Premier League, Chelsea ranked first, Arsenal second, Liverpool third, and Manchester United, who had one win and one loss, temporarily dangled in the middle and lower reaches.

But at this time, Manchester United also broke a scandal. A call girl who charges £45 per hour told the British "Sun" yesterday that Rooney, the magic kid of the England team, had slept with her...

Then this weekend's headlines were slaughtered by Rooney's news.

Ferguson, who was already short of major generals, was really big head, so he ran to Monaco in a dingy manner, which was a temporary escape from the limelight.

But after coming to Monaco, he still has to face the mad chase of English reporters.

Ferguson had to stand up and express his support for Rooney, "Did you not have it when you were young?"

"What kind of **** news is this?"

Well, Ferguson is on Rooney's side.

It just so happened that Mourinho was also nearby. He was also asked about Rooney's opinion. Mourinho said: "My players don't have this kind of problem,"

"Zheng Zhi is an example for everyone."

The triumphant Mourinho was laughing at Ferguson.

Later, when the two were drawing lots, they sat together again, but neither took the initiative to speak to each other.

Wenger, who was not far away, sat down beside AC Milan coach Ancelotti and chatted with a smile.

"Your team's Kaka is really good."

"Have you considered selling him?"

When Ancelotti heard this, he immediately replied cheerfully:

"Henry on your team is also pretty good, don't you think about it?"

Wenger was choked, and smiled awkwardly: "You can consider Van Persie."

"Or Bergkamp."

Ancelotti nodded thoughtfully, "Then you can think about Ambrosini or Costacuta?"

Wenger:...

The points and the overall league in the UEFA points 13 are added together.

According to this new ranking method, the four Spanish teams relying on the overall points advantage of La Liga and the excellent performance of their respective clubs in the European arena, all have been selected as the first-tier seeded teams.

At 16:00 local time in Monaco, the draw ceremony of the Champions Cup group match took place in Monte Carlo.

Serie A and La Liga teams clashed in the three groups, AC Milan and Barcelona were assigned to the same group, Inter Milan met Valencia, and Real Madrid and Rome were in the same group.

The 4 Premier League teams have good luck and the grouping situation is ideal. Manchester United, Arsenal, and Chelsea have no opponents in the four major leagues.

The specific results are as follows:

Group A: Deportivo, Liverpool, Monaco, Olympiacos.

Group B: Real Madrid, Roma, Leverkusen, Dynamo Kyiv.

Group C: Bayern, Juventus, Ajax, Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Group D: Manchester United, Lyon, Sparta Prague, Fenerbahçe.

Group F: Barcelona, ​​AC Milan, Celtics, Shakhtar Donetsk.

Group G: Inter Milan, Valencia, Anderlecht, Bremen.

Group H: Porto, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, CSKA Moscow.

"The signing is good." Mourinho is very satisfied with Chelsea's drawn opponents, Porto, Paris Saint-Germain and CSKA Moscow, no matter how they count, Chelsea can easily stand out.

Ferguson next to him finally said, "We are also okay."

Manchester United have drawn Lyon, Sparta Prague and Fenerbahçe, who seem to have better luck than Chelsea.

Wenger, who is not far away, also smiled happily. Arsenal’s lottery is also quite cool. Panathinaikos, PSV and Rosenborg. If Arsenal can’t get the first place in the group, they can jump into the Thames. River forget it.

In general, the drawing is a happy one...

But an accident soon happened, because Chelsea VS CSKA Moscow, the former is controlled by the Russian rich man Abramovich, and the latter is at least such a suspicion, because Abramovich is the largest shareholder of Siberian Petroleum, the sponsor of CSKA.

UEFA immediately realized the existence of the problem and immediately launched a further investigation on whether Abramovich is also the controlling shareholder of CSKA Moscow. UEFA News Chief William Gillard said: “We usually check all clubs roughly to make sure that no one has 51% equity in two or more clubs at the same time. If we think there is Problems, a more comprehensive review will be conducted."

He further explained: "Once the results of the investigation show that Abramovich also has a controlling stake in CSKA Moscow, then he must make a choice between one of the two clubs. One of the clubs will stay in the competition and one club will be eliminated from the Champions League. ."

In response to the UEFA investigation, the Chelsea club immediately reacted, declaring that UEFA and other Champions League teams do not need to worry about the relationship between Abramovich and CSKA. Press officer Simon Greenberg stated: "Mr. Abramovich is the boss of Chelsea. He is just one of the many shareholders of Siberian Petroleum, which has a jersey sponsorship contract with CSKA Moscow. Abramovich Mr. Qi neither has the club’s stock nor has any direct interest."

For the Chelsea club’s rhetoric, UEFA did not buy it. Although it would be difficult to find out the details of the relationship between the CSKA club and Abramovich, Gaillard insisted that if there are any doubts, Chelsea or CSKA The middle team must be eliminated from the Champions League group stage. "Our rules are very clear. Once it is discovered that someone owns more than 51% of the shares of two clubs at the same time, then the two teams cannot play at the same time."

The media has long reported that the relationship between the chairman of the CSKA Club Yevgeny Ginard and Abramovich is very unusual. Although Abramovich is no longer the owner of the Siberian Petroleum Company, he is still one of the major shareholders of the fifth largest Russian oil company, and there are even rumors that he is still the largest shareholder. The company obtained the naming rights of the Central Army Club for US$18 million until 2006. In March of this year, it signed a three-year jersey sponsorship contract of up to US$54 million with the club. During the period, Abramovich also invited Jinar to kiss him. Went to the stadium to watch two games of the Central Army. In recent years, the Central Army has continuously set a record for the transfer fee of the Russian League. The media believes that this is the support of Abramovich.

Since the first round of the European Champions Cup group stage will start on September 14th, Chelsea will face the Central Army at Stamford Bridge on October 20th~www.readwn.com~The second round will go to Moscow on 2nd. For the game, there is not much time left for the UEFA lawyers. They must find out as soon as possible whether Abramovich owns shares in CSKA Moscow and is a major shareholder...

However, the Chelsea people believe that all this is not a problem, as long as Abramovich has money, the problem can be solved.

The gambling company also announced the Champions Cup winning odds for this season.

Among the several favorite teams to win, the Arsenal team, which has made great strides in the Premier League, occupy the first place. Their unbeaten record and excellent state in the British arena is daunting, but considering that they have never played in the European Champions Cup. After entering the top 4 historical record, it is somewhat surprising that Arsenal are so optimistic.

The second place is defending champion Barcelona. Although Barcelona won the championship last season is not very convincing, their team is indeed quite strong.

The veteran European hegemon Real Madrid ranked third. After introducing a number of outstanding defenders in the new season, Real Madrid’s lineup tends to be balanced. Argentine Samuel will play in this game after missing the first two rounds of La Liga due to injury. The comeback in the Champions League this week also gave Real Madrid more confidence in Europe.

After spending money to replace most of the team's lineup, Chelsea, one of the semi-finals last season, is still very promising, and their winning odds closely follow Real Madrid;

AC Milan and Manchester United are also favorites to win the championship, but not as fierce as the previous four teams...

Although Chelsea is not the biggest favorite, Mourinho said domineeringly in an interview with The Times after returning to the City of London:

"It's time for us to rule Europe!"

"Although many people are unhappy."

"But this season we will definitely let them surrender!"
