Chapter 243 The Battle Between Britain and Germany Season 2

The UEFA Champions League group stage is all over. Among the four Bundesliga teams, Schalke and Bayern have successfully won the first place in the group.

For the remaining two teams, Borussia Dortmund defeated Basel 2-0 at home in the last round and successfully advanced, but Chelsea in the same group also defeated Steaua Bucharest 1-0, so both teams scored 12 points, but Dortmund was defeated Chelsea double-killed, so Chelsea overwhelmed the Hornets and became the first in the group.

Leverkusen defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 away in the last round. At the same time, Manchester United also helped Leverkusen successfully sniped Shakhtar Donetsk, so Leverkusen still grabbed the second place in the group.

So in this season's Champions League, the four Bundesliga teams Bayern, Schalke, Dortmund and Leverkusen have all advanced to the knockout rounds. This is the first time in Bundesliga history.

In addition to the Bundesliga, in other leagues:

The four Premier League teams Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal have all successfully advanced, but it is the same as the Bundesliga, the two teams are first in the group and the two teams are second in the group.

Only three teams from La Liga advanced, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, but they all advanced first in the group.

Ligue 1 only advanced to Paris, and Serie A only advanced to AC Milan. In addition, there are Olympiacos in the Greek Super League, Zenit St. Petersburg in the Russian Super League, and Galatasaray in the Turkish Super League.

It is worth mentioning that when the results of the Champions League draw came out, the European media were discussing that the theme of the Champions League group stage was the Premier League vs. Bundesliga.

Now that the group stage is over, the Premier League and the Bundesliga are also over.

Judging from the overall results, the two major leagues are evenly matched.

Bayern and Schalke beat Manchester City and Arsenal respectively to become the first in the group, while Chelsea and Manchester United also beat Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen respectively to become the first in the group.

However, if the results of the battle are calculated separately, the Premier League is even better.

Bayern had one win and one loss against Manchester City in two rounds, and Schalke had one win and one loss against Arsenal in two rounds, but Chelsea double-killed Dortmund, and Manchester United also double-killed Leverkusen.

There were a total of 8 British-German battles in the group stage, the Premier League won 6 games, and the Bundesliga only won 2 games.

The group stage of the Anglo-German war is over. Currently, the eight teams from the two major leagues have all entered the knockout round. In the knockout stage, there may be a second season of the Anglo-German war.

It depends on how UEFA draws lots.

On the day when the UEFA Champions League group stage ended, Jackie Lee found that many Arsenal fans went to his Twitter to thank him.

"Bruce, your stoppage time goal is too important."

"Really, we must thank you."

"Even if you're not playing at the Emirates Stadium, you can contribute to Arsenal."

...

It turned out that they were referring to the game in which Schalke beat Naples 2-0 at home in the group stage.

In that game, Li Chenglong scored twice, and one of the goals was scored in stoppage time.

Looking back now, if Jackie Lee scored one less goal at that time, then Arsenal would be miserable.

Jackie Lee scored one less goal. If Schalke only beat Naples 1-0 at home, in the last round, Naples only needs to beat Arsenal 2-0 at home to beat the Gunners and become second in the group.

The actual result is also like this,

Naples did beat Arsenal 2-0.

Fortunately, Jackie Lee scored two goals, otherwise, Arsenal would have become the saddest team in the history of the Champions League, scoring 12 points but only playing in the Europa League.

Even Arsenal is even worse, they have to create another record, the first team in the history of the Champions League to win the first three rounds of the group stage, but was eventually eliminated.

The UEFA Champions League group stage is over. For Li Chenglong personally, he played 5 group matches for Schalke, scored 4 goals and assisted 3 goals, which is a very good statistic.

However, in the UEFA Champions League scorer list, Li Chenglong is far behind.

Ronaldo scored another goal in the last round of the group stage. With a record 9 goals in the group stage, he temporarily ranked first in the scorer list.

The second-placed Ibrahimovic also scored 8 goals, which also tied the record of goals scored in the Champions League group stage before this season.

The third place is tied with Messi and Aguero, both of them scored 6 goals in the group stage.

Manchester City's Negredo and Juventus' Vidal are next, both players with five goals.

Therefore, Jackie Chan's 4 goals can only be tied for seventh place with several players such as Lewandowski, Higuain, and Muller.

But in general, he still has the most goals in the Champions League among Bundesliga players this season, although he is also tied.

At noon on the 8th, the draw for the top 16 of the UEFA Champions League was officially held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

Since this year's Champions League final was held in Berlin, Germany, UEFA invited former German international Riedel as a guest of the draw.

Once again the entire Schalke team gathered to watch the draw.

"This guy is a Dortmund legend, he won't draw us the strongest second in the group, will he?" Before the draw started, Navas started to talk again.

Riedel is indeed a Dortmund star, there is nothing wrong with this.

But draw the strongest group second?

Isn't this cursing yourself?

Soon, Navas' crow's mouth came true again.

The first one to be drawn was Manchester City, which is considered to be the strongest in the second place in all groups. After all, they scored 15 points.

Then draw the first team that is paired with them.

"Schalke 04."

Riddle read out the name and unfolded the note at the same time.

At this moment, half of the people in the Ruhr area were cheering for Riedel, while half of the people were greeting his ancestors and relatives.

Schalke drew Manchester City and is considered to be second in the strongest group.

The draw continues next.

Manchester United drew the Greek team Olympiakos, which is a good draw for Manchester United.

Atletico Madrid draws AC Milan, which can be regarded as a strong showdown.

Paris Saint-Germain draws Leverkusen, and the pharmaceutical factory may stop at the top 16.

Chelsea drew Galatasaray, a duel between Magic Bird and former disciples, because Sneijder, Drogba and others are currently playing for Galatasaray.

Real Madrid drew Dortmund. This is a continuation of last season's grievances, and it depends on whether Real Madrid can get revenge.

Barcelona drew Zenit St. Petersburg. This is a walk, and the only thing Barcelona has to do is to be careful not to be affected by the freezing weather in Russia.

Bayern drew Arsenal, and the two teams met in the top 16 of the Champions League for two consecutive seasons, which is also a continuation of the feud.

The results of the draw for the top sixteen came out, some were happy and some were sad.

However, the battle between the Premier League and the Bundesliga once again continued to the knockout round. Schalke played against Manchester City, Bayern faced Arsenal, and the second season of the England-Germany war officially kicked off.

As far as the Bundesliga alone is concerned, this might be a team-killing game.

Schalke vs. Manchester City, Bayern vs. Arsenal, Dortmund vs. Real Madrid, Leverkusen vs. Paris Saint-Germain, none of the Bundesliga teams have a big advantage.

Only Bayern against Arsenal can be regarded as the king of the South, Xiaoyou.

In the other three groups, all Bundesliga teams are at a disadvantage.

The Bundesliga's record-breaking four teams have entered the knockout round together. If they are eliminated in the top 16, it will set another record.

Never before had four teams entered the knockout stage in any league, yet they were wiped out in the round of sixteen.
