Chapter 36 Death Group (Two in One)
The royal family of Monaco is a licker of the traditional culture of the Dragon Kingdom.
Prince Albert II, in order to conduct cultural exchanges with the Dragon Kingdom, did not hesitate to send the thousand-year throne to the Forbidden City.
On December 3, 2002, the Dragon Kingdom defeated Poland, Mexico, Russia, and South Korea in Monaco and won the right to host the 2010 World Expo.
Grimaldi Conference Center.
From the north gate to the roadside, a red carpet has been laid.
On both sides of the red carpet, media reporters have set up cameras early.
The area of Monaco is only 2.08 square kilometers.
This conference center covers an area of 70,000 square meters.
Li Kang, Voller, and old man Top got off the business car.
The reporters saw the team logo on the chests of the three people and did not show much interest. They quickly turned their attention back to the end of the road. Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern, and Juventus were the focus of their interviews.
As soon as you enter the lobby of the conference center.
You can feel the rich traditional elements of the Dragon Kingdom.
Celadon, black-glazed porcelain, colored porcelain, Yue porcelain. Tiger heads, sheep heads, rat heads, ink paintings, various zithers and drums
Li Kang was stunned.
He took two steps closer and saw the label clearly: imitation.
The negative emotions that had just emerged gradually dissipated.
Voller smiled and said, "The Monaco royal family can't afford a few antiques from the Dragon Kingdom. There are only imitations here."
"Prince Albert II is obsessed with the culture of the Dragon Kingdom to the point of madness. He makes Chinese courses compulsory for children in this country."
Li Kang nodded seriously.
Old man Top looked a little nervous.
Since the victory over Manchester United, he has been praying for Leverkusen's Champions League draw.
It's better to draw well than to play well.
The situation of the Champions League this year is very different.
There are also many strong teams in the third and fourth tiers.
For example: CSKA Moscow of the Russian Premier League, Sevilla of La Liga, Lyon of Ligue 1, Shakhtar Donetsk of the Ukrainian Premier League, Galatasaray of the Turkish Super League.
Especially Roma of Serie A, which was also assigned to the third tier.
This Champions League group stage is likely to produce a death group!
Under the guidance of UEFA staff.
The three walked into a conference hall.
"The player representative seats are in the audience, and we have to go to the club representative seats. Send me a message if you have anything, and..."
"You are like a grandmother now! Okay, Li is not a child."
Voller and old man Top walked to the front row of the main stage.
Li Kang walked to the audience according to the number plate.
He quickly found his seat.
The sixth row.
A seat next to the aisle.
"Leverkusen has another genius? Asian?"
Li Kang had just sat down when someone next to him greeted him.
It was Pjanic of Roma.
This guy was as thin as a thin dog in 2015.
"You are from Longguo, right? You must be. I used to be roommates with a Longguo player!"
"This is the first time I have seen a Longguo player at the Champions League draw ceremony!"
Pjanic smiled and stretched out his hand.
Li Kang responded politely.
He suddenly remembered: there was indeed a Longguo player and Pjanic who were called the "Messi Twins" back then, but unfortunately the two had very different careers later.
Pjanic was about to continue.
The media reporters in the back suddenly exclaimed, and the camera lights flashed wildly!
A group of players wearing clothes with the Barcelona team logo walked into the venue!
Messi!
Iniesta!
Suarez!
Pjanic wondered: "Why can Barcelona send so many player representatives? Our other clubs can only send one player!"
Schuerle on his right said: "Barcelona is the Champions League champion last season. Not only do they have many player representatives, but there are also three legendary award presenters!"
When all the representatives were seated.
The Champions League group draw ceremony officially began.
After an exciting opening song.
A man and a woman walked out from both sides of the main stage.
Manchester United's old goalkeeper Schmeichel.
Miss Switzerland Melanie.
The two were the emcees for this draw, speaking in a very official tone.
Offstage.
Pjanic adjusted his sitting position, staring at the graceful figure on the main stage, and murmured, "It's really awesome!"
Li Kang: "."
He really couldn't figure out why the tightly dressed Miss Switzerland gave the same feeling to the genius of Rome.
Pjanic glanced at Li Kang and said, "Is Miss Melanie not charming? There's something wrong with your aesthetics!"
The draw ceremony was fast-paced.
The two emcees left the stage.
The LED screen on the main stage began to play the top ten goals of the last Champions League:
Abubakar's violent long-range shot.
Lewandowski's header.
Benzema's small-angle explosion.
Accompanied by the passionate Champions League theme song BGM.
Every goal can set off applause from the audience.
Barcelona has five of the ten best goal clips.
When Messi's famous scene of knocking down Boateng appeared on the big screen.
It instantly triggered cheers from the whole audience.
Bayern's sports director's face turned pale.
Club representative seats.
Old man Top sat between Enrique and Guardiola, feeling a little uncomfortable.
He couldn't understand why the two juniors could ignore him without even saying hello!
Are the three crowns and six crowns so great?
The top ten goals have been played.
The LED screen is not dim.
Instead, the best goal in this season's Champions League qualifying rounds was suddenly inserted.
in the screen.
A black-haired boy wearing Leverkusen's No. 10 jersey hit a shocking free kick with a weird arc at Old Trafford!
Suddenly.
Everyone's eyes turned to the players' bench, searching hard for the figure scoring the goal.
Pjanic looked at Li Kang with a look of astonishment, and exclaimed: "Young boy's free kick seems to be better than mine!"
Longguo live broadcast room.
Duan Xuan and He Wei couldn't help but feel a little excited when they saw this scene.
"Li Kang! He is the first Dragonborn player to appear at the Champions League draw ceremony!"
"His free kick was as exciting as last season's top ten goals in the Champions League!"
The barrage gradually became exciting.
-
[Although Li Kang is not from the Dragon Kingdom, I still hope that he will play better and better and prove to the world that we Dragon Country people can also play well! 】
-
[It’s nothing to prove. When will the overall strength of Longguo’s football become stronger and the evaluation of football desert be changed? Li Kang must not come back! 】
-
[I can guess the titles of tonight’s self-media: “Messi is stunned!” “C Ronaldo is stunned!”]
-
[It’s not that exaggerated, Messi was as awesome as Ronaldo when he was 17 years old! The most common comment is: "This guy's free kick is pretty good!"]
Club representative seat.
Allegri suddenly turned around: "Mr. Top, this kid is a bit like Pirlo, we are Juventus."
Simeone interrupted: "This little guy's style of play is very suitable for Atletico Madrid!"
Pellegrini: "We are Manchester City."
Old Man Top scolded the UEFA editors ten thousand times in his heart!
No, it must be Worrell’s doing!
And these greedy wealthy coaches!
Wenger, why are you looking at me like that?
Why are you Arsenal joining in the fun?
Old Man Top tried hard to calm down his tone: "Well, Li, he is good at free kicks! Yes! Only free kicks are good."
The Champions League ceremony soon came to the most important part.
Maldini and Zanetti, two legends of AC Milan and Inter Milan, stood in front of the small stage as guests of the draw.
Snapped!
The little round ball is unscrewed.
Barcelona was drawn first, Group E!
All the second-tier club managers couldn't help but become nervous.
Old Man Top also kept praying in his heart.
When the results are in.
He almost fainted.
Longguo live broadcast room.
Duan Xuan and He Wei were also explaining the results of the draw.
"Leverkusen! Group E!"
"Rome! Group E!"
"Borisov! Group E!"
"The first death group is born!"
"Congratulations to them!"
The barrage is full of joy! -
【Laughing to death! Leverkusen finally eliminated Manchester United in the Champions League qualifying round! As a result, they met Barcelona in the group stage. 】
-
[A battle of revenge for the abandoned son of a wealthy family? I suspect this grouping is rigged, haha. 】
-
[Roma has been very strong in the past two seasons, ranking second in Serie A, especially their defensive system, and their counterattacks are super sharp! It will be difficult for Leverkusen to pass. 】
-
[Borisov is not easy to play. It is freezing and snowy in Belarus. Bayern and Atletico Madrid have suffered before. It was so cold that their underwear froze, let alone passing the ball! 】
-
[According to objective strength analysis, it is difficult for Leverkusen to qualify! Definitely can't beat Barcelona! 】
-
[Look at Arsenal, the draw is so good, they will definitely enter the top 16! 】
Forty minutes later.
The UEFA Champions League group results for the 2015/16 season are all out!
Group A: Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Shakhtar Donetsk, Malmo.
Group B: PSV, Lazio, CSKA Moscow, Wolfsburg.
Group C: Benfica, Atletico Madrid, Galatasaray, Lokomotiv Astana.
Group D: Juventus, Manchester City, Sevilla, Monchengladbach.
Group E: Barcelona, Leverkusen, Roma, Borisov.
Group F: Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Olympiacos, Dinamo Zagreb.
Group G: Chelsea, Porto, Dynamo Kyiv), Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Group H: Zenit St. Petersburg, Valencia, Lyon, Gent.
Some are happy and some are sad.
Group E and Group D, two absolute death groups, have become hot topics of discussion.
The Champions League draw ceremony has officially ended.
Pjanic shook hands with Li Kang: "See you in the Champions League!"
A man in a suit stepped forward: "Hey! Sophia's son! I watched you grow up! Do you remember me? I didn't expect you to become so good. You should go home and see more."
His clothes were embroidered with the Barcelona crest.
Li Kang glanced at the other party.
no respond.
Turn around and leave.
For a Spanish player who insulted the Dragons, why do so many Dragons fans regard him as the "iron-blooded team spirit"?
The man in suit smiled coquettishly.
He turned towards Iniesta and spread his hands: "The young man has reached the stage of rebellion!"
Venue exit.
Worrall and Old Man Top did not greet their old friends, but immediately met with Li Kang.
"Have you met any new friends? Well, that boy Pjanic has a pretty good lifestyle."
"Don't act like an old lady, okay? Li is already 17 years old! Let's go quickly. These crazy reporters are like flies seeing feces when they see those big stars!"
The three of them left the Grimaldi Forum quickly.
There was no entanglement.
After all.
There are many big teams with more traffic than Leverkusen in the 32 teams of the Champions League, and the media reporters can't interview them at all.
Just like Robert, the sports director of Barcelona at this time.
His mouth was almost filled with microphones.
"Mr. Robert! Do you think Barcelona can defend the Champions League title this season?"
"After Xavi left, Barcelona happened to encounter a ban on signings in this summer window. Can you adapt to the multiple fronts this season?"
"Leverkusen's talented young player refused to return to Barcelona. What do you think of this? Why did you sell him to Leverkusen? Instead of renting him?"
Robert was calm and answered the questions of the media reporters one by one.
"Li Kang? We respect his personal wishes. It's interesting that Barcelona and Leverkusen are in the same group."
The implication is obvious.
Defeating an old, weak and sick Manchester United doesn't prove anything.
In the Champions League group stage, Barcelona will crush Leverkusen with strength.
A young player who has just emerged wants to prove that Barcelona's decision is wrong?
Li Kang returned to the first-team dormitory.
Through two walls, you can hear Brandt's laughter when he plays games.
Take off the uncomfortable suit.
Turn on the computer.
Start searching for Roma's recent game videos.
He often watches the replays of Barcelona, Bayern, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Juventus, but he can't understand them at all, even with a God's perspective.
The video starts playing.
When he saw the main roster of Roma.
He understood why everyone praised this Serie A team for its strong defense and sharp counterattacks.
Central defender: Manolas and Rudiger.
These two are the fastest defensive players in the top five leagues today.
Midfield: Pjanic, Keita, De Rossi, Nainggolan.
The strength of this midfield strangulation is definitely one of the best in the top five leagues!
Forward: Salah, Dzeko.
Let’s not talk about top center forwards like Dzeko.
The Roma version of Salah should not have grown to its full form yet, right?
One hour later.
Li Kang in front of the computer was a little shocked.
Is Salah in 2015 already that strong?
And Pjanic, he is simply playing according to Pirlo’s template!
That Rudiger, his turning ability seems to be even stronger than in the future.
The shadow in Li Kang’s brain suddenly spread wildly.
All the details of the game he just watched began to replay in his consciousness.
The court turned into a plane.
The Roma players turned into stars and kept moving.
Their overall running positions.
Formed two chains on the plane.
After a long time.
The shadow in the brain began to shrink.
Li Kang was covered in cold sweat.
He kept breathing heavily.
From a God's perspective, he simply couldn't find a way to crack this defensive system.
It should still be limited by the understanding of tactics.
Limited by the understanding of the characteristics of his own players.
In short.
If Leverkusen wants to qualify in the Champions League group stage.
The difficulty coefficient is very high.
In the original timeline, in the 15/16 season, the two teams that qualified from Group E of the Champions League were: Barcelona and Roma.
