Chapter 476 The Worst Luck
"Oh yeah! That's it! Awesome!"

In the apartment, Chu Yunling controlled the wheelchair by herself, went to the living room to watch the TV, and followed Zhou Tiancheng's game.She hasn't felt this way for a long time.He stared at the screen the entire game without turning his eyes, lest he miss a second.

Staring at the screen, watching Zhou Tiancheng running on the field, being knocked over again and again, she smiled.It's still the same feeling, very familiar, and hasn't changed.

Even when the game entered the last few minutes, she had a premonition: Zhou Tiancheng was going to score!

Sure enough, she didn't expect it.Although the result was not surprising, Chu Yunling screamed excitedly and slapped the handle of the wheelchair vigorously. She didn't know how hard she used, but anyway, the wheelchair slapped loudly.After the excitement passed, I felt pain in my palm and it was completely red.

……

After the game, the players on both sides made the same movements, their bodies softened and they sat directly on the ground.

The derby is a huge drain on both sides, both physically and mentally, but Klopp is excited that his team has survived to the end, and his thoughts are exactly the same as Duan Xuan said, and finally won It's a derby!

At the press conference after the game, he said directly and unabashedly: "Winning this game deserves the joy of all Dortmund fans. I would like to thank every player, especially Zhou!"

Zhou Tiancheng looked up in astonishment from the side, and Klopp just turned his head and looked at him, and then looked at the reporters and explained with a smile: "In the past few seasons, I hated Zhou very much, but now I start to like him. Hahaha! Facts have proved that he can win the derby!"

Zhou Tiancheng couldn't laugh or cry beside him, thinking that the boss started to twitch again, I'm a pure man...

But looking at the reporters with different expressions off the court, Zhou Tiancheng quickly grabbed the microphone and explained: "This is the credit of the whole team. It's not fair to count it on me alone."

The reporters squinted their eyes and smiled more intensely. They could actually understand Klopp's intentions, but Zhou Tiancheng's addition of these two sentences immediately made the reporters' eyes a little more playful.Thanks to Zhou Tiancheng's unique low-key temperament, the current Dortmund team has something more on top of its aggressiveness, and the temperament that a defending champion should have is more prominently highlighted.

Since defeating Bayern, Dortmund's winning odds at the gaming company have been reduced to 1 to 1.2. From a certain perspective, the gaming company believes that Dortmund's defending title has no suspense.The remaining opponents in the first half of the league are not enough to pose a threat. As long as Dortmund can continue to win the half-time championship, their chances of defending the title are definitely not 70.00% generally recognized by the Bundesliga, but infinitely close to [-]%!

In the next few rounds of the league, Dortmund still took some effort, and Klopp was not willing to let the team suffer unnecessary injuries as the winter window approached.Insufficient preparations for winter training will affect the second half of the season.

So before the Christmas holiday, Dortmund did not have a particularly strong finish, and the league was guaranteed to win, beating Borussia Mönchengladbach 2:1, Kaiserslautern 1:0, and Freiburg 4:1.As for the Champions League, when the last round of the group stage was irrelevant, Klopp rotated the lineup, and the semi-main lineup finally lost the game 2:3, which can be regarded as a moderate upset.

Next, before the Christmas holiday, UEFA will conduct a draw for the quarter-finals.

The well-known media of the real European clubs will not pay too much attention to the draw at this stage, because for the teams they support and serve, this stage is far from the beginning of the decisive battle.

It is different for Dortmund. The Champions League is a journey of adventure and challenge for them, and every step is related to their further hopes and possibilities.

Dortmund is the first in Group F. According to the competition system, they will face one of the eight second groups in the group, which may be one of Naples, CSKA Moscow, Basel, Lyon, Zenit St. Petersburg and AC Milan.Of course, Leverkusen is an exception. At this stage, teams from the same country are evading, and Marseille, who qualified in the same group, does not count.

"Dortmund Youth" meticulously used the entire page to classify the six opponents.It can be seen that as a senior reporter, Karen loves the team.

"There is no doubt that the Swiss team Basel is the best opponent. If this team can be drawn, it is simply God's favor for Dortmund. CSKA Moscow is also good. Although they dominate the Russian Super League, but The fighting power of this team in the Champions League is really not flattering. It is not as good as Zenit. Even a Turkish team like Trabzonspor can draw with them. Coming to Westphalia is definitely a massacre! Dortmund just need to get a decent result away from Devils. Zhou has that experience, so it's definitely not difficult to do."

"If you run into Naples, you have to be careful away. In addition to economic factors, you have to be careful of the fans there... In Naples (that is, Naples), those fans can do anything. It is said that the mafia organization there is It relies on the development and growth of the vast number of extreme fan groups..."

Karen seems to be more worried about off-court factors, and at the same time hacked Naples without a trace.In the eyes of German footballers, Italy does not represent fond memories.

"But this is not the worst. The worst result is to meet AC Milan. If unfortunately, it is time to test Klopp!"

Less than 24 hours after the forward-looking article appeared in the press, the phrase has become a trending phrase on the Internet throughout Germany.

Thanks to Karen's crow's mouth, Dortmund did draw AC Milan!

Whether you want it or not, this opponent is there, and if you want to take this step, you must conquer it.

The entire Dortmund sports media, large and small, are analyzing this opponent. Although AC Milan is in a low period, even the gate of the Champions League semi-finals has not been stepped forward for a long time, but it does not hinder the heritage that the seven Champions League champions have brought to this team.More importantly, last season the Rossoneri regained the league championship that had been lost for seven seasons. What Dortmund has to face is a traditional giant that is coming out of the trough.

Moreover, in order to enrich the lineup, Allegri made extremely targeted reinforcements.Ibrahimovic was bought out on the front line, Ghanaian star Boateng Jr. and Juventus midfielder Aquilani were signed in the midfield. The overall strength is not weaker than Dortmund's current midfield configuration, and the central defender position is even more Signed Mex, who ranks in the top three steals in Serie A, it can be seen that Allegri intends to regain AC Milan's tradition of extreme defense and lead the team to the top again.

Meeting such an opponent so early, Dortmund's luck is really speechless.But this is the Champions League and this is just the beginning!
