Chapter 409 Two Ancestors of Death
Relying on Qi Ce's kick to determine the world, Dortmund won this hard-won victory at home, making a good start for the new season.

After the first round of the league, a world-renowned event will be held in Zurich, Switzerland, which is the UEFA Champions League group draw ceremony.

32 top European team coaches and executives will gather together to participate in the draw ceremony of the Champions League group stage. Klopp has a little experience in this. He also came to Zurich last season for the Europa League group draw, but obviously, The Champions League and the Europa League are two leagues.

Gathered here are the legendary coach of the Red Devils Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson, the young Barcelona coach, Pep Guardiola who is considered to be the best coach in the world, the Portuguese madman, the current Galacticos The coach Jose Mourinho also has the common mentor of these two coaches, the current Bayern Munich coach Louis van Gaal, as well as the famous Italian coach, Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti, Arsenal's professor Arsene · Wenger et al.

In front of these world-renowned super coaches, Klopp is just an ordinary middle class.

If it was Klopp a few years ago, maybe he would be satisfied with the status he enjoys in the football world now, because he is loved by everyone in his home, Mainz. If he can win a Bundesliga championship and a German Cup championship, he will definitely feel very great.

But really got these two medals, enjoyed the treatment of being thrown high by the players on the sidelines, enjoyed the beer bath that only a champion can have, and stood at the Westfalenstadion with open arms facing the group of crazy fans. After enjoying their worship, Klopp's mood began to change.

Since I can do it, why can't I pursue more?
When he sat here, the thought in his mind was like this. Before the ceremony started, most of the coaches also took a group photo. The highly respected Sir Alex Ferguson, Van Gaal and Wenger sat in the middle, and Guardiola stood behind him. Mourinho and Ancelotti, who are sitting in the C position, but they fought for Jiang Shang with one hand, and they fought for the position.

Klopp stands third in the back row on the right, not so conspicuous.

One day, I will go to the middle too.

Klopp thought so.

Next is the lottery ceremony.

Borussia Dortmund are seeded in Pot [-].

Before the lottery starts, each team will be roughly classified into a gear according to their respective European war points. The purpose of this is to maximize the avoidance of the death group and give the giants more opportunities to appear in the knockout round. This is also very fair , Generally speaking, the European competition points of the giants will not be low, they will definitely be ranked in the first or second tiers, and the top two teams in the group are the teams that qualify. Under normal circumstances, the teams in the first and second tiers will get the qualifications.

However, there are often some wealthy figures in the third gear.

Many newly promoted giants, or down-and-out giants will appear in the third tier. Whether there is a group of death depends largely on whether the third tier team is significantly higher than the other teams.

Dortmund are perhaps the strongest team in the third tier.

Because they are the Bundesliga champions.

Due to the bankruptcy crisis in previous years, Dortmund has not appeared in the European competition for several years in a row. Last season's Europa League record was not bad, but it was not enough for them to go directly to the second tier.

The UEFA Champions League draw is generally composed of famous football players who have just retired. The guests present today include Kahn, Maldini, Zidane, Nedved and Figo. In the small box, a small ball was found. After opening, the name of the team would be written on it.

Soon the first lottery will be drawn.

Champions League defending champions Inter Milan were drawn from Group A, followed by Group B, Ligue [-] giants Lyon with a high score in the European war were drawn out, the seed team of Group C was the Premier League Red Devils Manchester United, and Group D was the champions of the previous year's Champions League Barcelona, ​​Group E is last season's Champions League runner-up Bayern Munich, Group F has the Blues Chelsea, Group G is the Champions League king Real Madrid, and the last group H is the Premier League Gunners Arsenal.

The first group draw is not very interesting, mainly the second and third groups.

Tottenham Hotspur were drawn to the defending champions' group, Tottenham coach Redknapp didn't show any expression, it didn't really matter which group he was drawn to.

In Group B, Dortmund's rival Schalke 04 was drawn out, and they will face Ligue [-] giants Lyon. Strictly speaking, it is not a bad draw.

Group C is Valencia, they have to face Manchester United, and Barcelona in Group D ushered in the weakest Copenhagen in the second tier, but Guardiola has no expression.

In Group E, the Italian capital team Roma was drawn together with Bayern Munich, while the Ligue [-] champions Marseille and Chelsea were drawn together. Group G will usher in the Champions League matchup. At present, the two teams with the largest number of winners in the Champions League Draw together, AC Milan and Real Madrid, Arsenal drew the Ukrainian giants Shakhtar Donetsk.

The most striking thing is actually the third set of draws.

This is the key to determining whether there will be a group of death in the group.

Group A, Ajax.

Group B, Benfica.

Group C, Glasgow Rangers.

Group D, Rubin Kazan.

Group E, Basel.

There are only two groups left.

Klopp started to get nervous.

The guest who drew the lottery was the legendary German goalkeeper Oliver Kahn. He stepped forward steadily, put his hand into the box, pretended to turn around in the box, and then took out a small ball - only two small balls left, nothing better .

"Drawn into Group F is... Dortmund."

There was a small exclamation at the scene.

Group of Death, here we come!
Strictly speaking, the relatively average strength of Group B, Lyon, Schalke 04, and Benfica can also be called the death group, but the fans are of course interested in the strong dialogue between the giants.

Dortmund was drawn into Group F, and the opponents in the same group were-Real Madrid and AC Milan!

The last Serbian giants Partizan Belgrade deservedly entered the final group, and then the draw for the fourth group.

In the end, for Dortmund's Champions League trip, the opponents in the group stage are Real Madrid, AC Milan and Panathinaikos from Greece.

Zize and his teammates watched the draw ceremony on the training ground. When Dortmund was drawn out by Kahn, the teammates all wailed.

This is the worst possible result!

The reactions of Watzke and Klopp who participated in the ceremony were also quite different. Klopp shook his head helplessly and smiled, but Watzke seemed very happy instead.

It is not known exactly what the two of them were thinking.

"Dortmund and Real Madrid, AC Milan are in the same group, and the Greek Super League champion Panathinaikos is also in the same group. This is a veritable group of death!"

Duan Xuan, the commentator of the live broadcast ceremony, was very shocked by the result, but in a sense, he also had a little expectation: "However, then again, I believe many people are looking forward to Dortmund facing Real Madrid or Milan this year. Let’s see what the result will be like when Zize confronts those world-class superstars with the performance of this kind of giants.”

"For example, Real Madrid's Ronaldo, Milan's Zlatan Ibrahimovic, what kind of performance will Zize perform against these world-class forwards? And the defense of these two teams is also full of superstars, and Zize will directly Facing these superstars, Milan has Thiago Silva and Nesta, Real Madrid has Ramos, and Pepe is something to watch."

"Of course, the difficulty for Dortmund to pass the group stage has obviously increased a lot. As Chinese players, we still sincerely hope that Qi Ce will appear in the knockout round. On the other hand, Schalke 04, where Hao Junmin belongs, also It can be said that they were drawn into the death group, because Schalke 04's group includes Lyon and Benfica. Although these teams are not as strong as Real Madrid and Milan, in general, there is not much difference between these teams. "

　The afternoon of August 8th is limited to free, everyone can wait
