Midfielder Ruler

With the 5: 1 victory over Hanover 96 at home at Westfalun Stadium, Dortmund ended the first half of the 2012-2013 season Bundesliga, and players were able to get a three-week holiday.

According to Klopp's requirements for players, everyone is required to keep their shape as much as possible, and then return to training on the 9th next month to prepare for the second half of the season.

At the same time, Klopp also breathed a sigh of relief. The first half of the league encountered a continuous unbeaten away circle. The league was once nine points behind Bayern Munich, and there was an unexpected home loss to Wolfsburg .

What is surprising is that the 2012-2013 season at the end of the Bundesliga half is only two points behind Bayern. As long as the main action is no longer dead in the second half, the overtaking points are very likely things. Six-point German national derby.

But the end of the league does not mean that everything is declared over. The draw of the Champions League 1/8 finals for the 2012-2013 season has to be held as scheduled.

At 12 noon on December 20th, Swiss time, the draw of the UEFA Champions League 1/8 finals for the 2012-2013 season was held at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

Of the 16 teams that advanced to the UEFA Champions League knockout this season, there are three giants qualifying for the group's second qualifying, which brings some fantasies to the media and fans.

In the end, which group was so unlucky that they got Real Madrid?

Which team won the first team Arsenal or AC Milan?

In terms of overall strength, the second strongest group is undoubtedly Real Madrid, followed by Arsenal.

As for AC Milan, as Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva walked away to Paris Saint-Germain, the current AC Milan lineup seems to be a little hanging, and the ability to qualify for the group still benefits from the second grade and third The ability of the grade team is limited.

The media that came to UEFA headquarters Nyon to participate in the Champions League 1/8 final draw ceremony was the most concerned about which group won Real Madrid first.

With the exception of Barcelona, ​​Malaga and Dortmund, the first of the other five groups was frightened.

Tang Zheng and his girlfriend Zhao Lina watched the live draw of the draw at the home of Phoenix Lake in Dortmund. The UEFA Champions League 1/8 final draw ceremony was still hosted by UEFA Secretary General Infantino and UEFA Competition Director Marchetti.

UEFA Secretary General Infantino introduced the rules of the 1/8 final draw according to the convention. For example, the same national team and the same group of teams avoid, and the first team in the group has the right to play first and then the host.

Subsequently, he also greeted the Barcelona coach who received the surgery.

After introducing the final venue of the new Wembley Stadium, a promotional video of the Champions League 16 was broadcast on the spot.

When seeing Dortmund's editing clips, Tang Zheng couldn't help but exclaim: "This editor must give thirty-six praises to show the handsome brilliance of this handsome guy!"

"Cut ~ it's not ashamed at all." Zhao Lina sitting next to him angrily shouted.

"Is it? Am I not handsome at all?" Tang Zheng took Zhao Lina's hands on his stubborn face, looked directly at them, and then asked seriously.

Zhao Lina's pretty face turned red, and she ignored Tang Zheng, but turned her face away and watched TV.

"Hey." Tang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth with a nice arc, and took Zhao Lina's little hand to continue watching TV.

The 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League 16 promotion video was finished. The host Infantino invited UEFA competition director Marchetti and final ambassador McManaman to assist in the draw.

"Brother Tang Zheng, which team do you want to draw the most?" Zhao Lina asked curiously.

"I haven't really thought about this," Tang Zheng said with a shrug of his shoulders. "Anyway, everyone will try their best."

"I ask which team do you want to meet the most!" Zhao Lina coquettishly said.

Tang Zheng is now very thorough about the changes in the girl's facial expression. He quickly coughed and said very seriously: "The weaker the better."

"..."

Zhao Lina rolled her charming eyes.

Before the UEFA Champions League 1/8 final draw ceremony, all three teams representing the Bundesliga won the group first, which means that Dortmund can't draw Real Madrid, and the other seven teams may be second.

As for who wants to draw the most, Tang Zheng has never thought about it. The second weakest team in the seven groups is undoubtedly the Scottish Celtics, but it is thought that they used to beat Barcelona at home 2-1 It won't be too easy.

According to the UEFA lottery nature, Dortmund has only three teams most likely to encounter, Porto, Arsenal and AC Milan.

Dortmund and Porto once faced each other in the 1/16 final of the UEFA Cup in the 2010-2011 season and eventually eliminated Porto with a total score of 4: 2.

It was the same group as Arsenal in the Champions League last season, and both games were even.

AC Milan was the opponent of the Champions League 1/8 finals last season, Dortmund double home and away.

Real Madrid, who unexpectedly won the second place in the group, has become the subject of major media discussions in Europe. According to the rules of avoidance of the same national football team and the same team, Real Madrid may encounter very strong opponents.

Paris Saint-Germain, Schalke 04, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Manchester United.

If you can choose, Real Madrid is definitely willing to draw Schalke 04. After all, Schalke 04's overall strength is the worst in the first group.

UEFA Secretary-General Infantino first extracted the second group is not the attention of Real Madrid, but the only Super League team in Galatasaray.

Perhaps Galatasaray's overall strength is biased, but I have to admit that their home atmosphere is very difficult, it is an unconquerable home.

Galatasaray is the only team in the Turkish Super League to advance to the knockout tournament. The opponent they may encounter is the first team in all teams except Manchester United in the same group.

UEFA Competition Director Marchetti took out a Champions League logo lottery ball from the first bowl of the seven groups and placed it in a bowl, which was then drawn by Finals Ambassador McManaman.

In the end, the team drawn was Schalke 04 of the Bundesliga.

The live guide switched the scene, and the club officials who came to the draw on behalf of the two clubs smiled separately.

Obviously, it is an acceptable lottery for both parties.

Immediately, Infantino pulled out the Celtics from the remaining seven teams, and the first group drawn by McManaman was Juventus.

Tang Zheng saw Nedved, an official representing Juventus attending the UEFA Champions League 1/8 final draw, smiled mysteriously, and was obviously very satisfied with the draw.

So he smiled, speechless: "The best knockout opponent was taken away by Juventus."

"Don't be discouraged, there are Porto, Arsenal and AC Milan waiting for you to touch." Zhao Lina said coldly beside him.

"..." Tang Zheng was speechless.

At the same time, Infantino pulled out one of the remaining six teams in the second team-Arsenal.

Tang Zheng's facial expression instantly became rich, and Zhao Lina reached out her right hand and pinched to Tang Zheng's right cheek: "You are nervous."

"How is it possible? I can't wait to get Arsenal!" Tang Zheng certainly would not admit that he was a little nervous.

"is it?"

Zhao Lina laughed at the playful play.

Not long after, McManaman pulled out a UEFA Champions League logo ball from the bowl.

Unscrewing the ball, he said aloud: "Bayern Munich."

Suddenly, Tang Zheng took a breath.

To be honest, he didn't want to draw a strong team prematurely. Dortmund's second half of the tournament was very compact and the league was two points behind Bayern. He worried that the team would pay too much attention to the UEFA Champions League and ignore the domestic league.

If the opponents drawn in the Champions League 1/8 finals are weak, the energy invested can be slowed down, thus playing the role of still paying attention to the league.

Arsenal was drawn to Bayern Munich, and the officials of both clubs didn't look good.

But the reporters at the scene were very excited, and finally a strong dialogue emerged in the Champions League 1/8 finals!

The draw ceremony continued, and UEFA Secretary General Infantino pulled out Donetsk miners.

With Schalke 04, Juventus and Bayern Munich all taking away, the only opponents the Donetsk miners might encounter are Malaga, Dortmund, Barcelona and Manchester United.

"Donetsk miner? It is also acceptable." Tang Zheng's brain is running at a high speed, tapping his head slightly.

The second of the four groups was drawn, and the remaining four groups were AC Milan, Real Madrid, Valencia and Porto.

In addition to the fact that Real Madrid cannot be drawn, Dortmund's second team in the four teams that did not draw the most hope to meet naturally is the Donetsk miners.

Although Dortmund double-attacked AC Milan at home and away last season, in the final analysis they still have a wealth of wealth.

Of course, the opponent the Donetsk miners most want to meet is Malaga.

After half a minute, McManaman pulled out-Dortmund.

The live director's footage was given to Dortmund Sports Director Zoellk, whose face is much better than last season's Champions League 1/8 final and 1/4 final draw.

The overall strength of the Donetsk miners is obviously inferior to Dortmund. As long as they play normally, it is normal to advance to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

Next, the atmosphere at the lottery site became apparently tense.

The second of the four teams is only Valencia, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Porto. The first group is Malaga, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and Barcelona.

In other words, if Real Madrid is drawn next, according to the same national team avoidance rules, they can only choose one of two, either Manchester United or Paris Saint-Germain.

However, the team drawn by Infantino is AC Milan. In addition to not being able to draw Malaga, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and Barcelona may be drawn.

Among them, Paris Saint-Germain has the greatest chance. This summer, AC Milan's two superstars Ibrahimovic and Tiago Silva both transferred to Paris Saint-Germain. Considering UEFA's increased influence in the Champions League, the superstars returned Stories often attract attention.

But the team drawn by McManaman is Barcelona.

Immediately, the expressions of AC Milan officials and Barcelona officials who appeared in the broadcast camera became the target of the narrators.

Infantino continued to debug the 'golden right hand', Yang 5 commentator He Wei ridiculed: "There are still three games not drawn, who is the second in the group that Infantino will draw next? Will it be Real Madrid? ? "

The next moment, he was stunned, stunned, exclaimed: "God, Real Madrid! Did they draw Paris Saint-Germain or Manchester United?"

Paris Saint-Germain sports director Leonardo and Manchester United CEO David Gill have very rich expressions, obviously neither want to draw Real Madrid.

"Brother Tang Zheng, who do you think Real Madrid will draw?"

When UEFA Competition Director Marchetti took out Paris Saint-Germain's draw, Zhao Lina asked.

Tang Zheng thought for a moment and pondered: "Personally, I may encounter Manchester United."

"why?"

"Silly." Tang Zheng reached out and squeezed Zhao Lina's Qiong nose, laughing: "Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is back home, isn't it a good gimmick? This is UEFA's consistent style."

As soon as the words fell, McManaman unscrewed the draw ball, glanced at it, and smiled while turning the paper: "Manchester-United-F.C."

"Aoao Aoao--" Andy Gray, the British sky commentator, held his head in his hands and said with a painful expression: "Manchester United actually got Real Madrid! Here I would like to congratulate Cristiano Ronaldo home, and also for next year Sir Alex Ferguson, the coach who will definitely retire in the summer, is worried that Real Madrid is not an easy team to deal with ... "

With Real Madrid drawing to Manchester United, the remaining four teams no longer need to draw, because the undrawn group first Malaga and the second group Valencia are the same national football team, which means that the Porto automatic Draw to Malaga, Malaga automatically draws to Paris Saint-Germain.

The 2012-2013 season Champions League knockout 1/8 final draw ended, several happy and some worried.

The strong dialogue is what fans want to see, but it is definitely not what those high-end teams are willing to encounter, especially the real Madrid and Manchester United match, which can be called the early confrontation of the Champions League final.

Manchester United soldiers preparing for the Christmas Devil schedule and Real Madrid generals in the last domestic league before the winter break are very depressed. Such a lottery can appear. What more can be said?

The UEFA Champions League 1/8 final draw ended, followed by the UEFA Cup 1/16 final draw ceremony ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Twenty-four teams advanced to the team and eight UEFA Champions League third-place teams.

Prior to this, Infantino also announced the Champions League 1/8 final time.

It will take place on February 12/13, February 19/20, March 5/6, and March 12/13, 2013.

The next European Cup 32 strong consciousness has nothing to do with Dortmund. Tang Zheng turned off the TV and pulled the red-faced but feminine Zhao Lina towards the room ...

The next day, the media that followed the Champions League in the world analyzed and analyzed the draw of the Champions League 1/8 finals that ended yesterday. The media talked about the most confrontation between the Champions League 1/8 finals. Real Madrid and Manchester United are undoubtedly followed by Arsenal VS Bayern Munich and AC Milan VS Barcelona.

Dortmund's drawing of the Donetsk miners was considered a satisfactory draw, not bad, but not good.

Of course, compared to Bayern Munich drawing Arsenal and Schalke 04 to Galatasaray, the results are much better ...
