Chapter 116 Knockout Draw

In March, the Premier League was in full swing.The League Cup is over, and the rest of the teams are also working hard towards their respective goals.

Judging from the standings, the top three with two reds and one blue, no matter which team is likely to win the championship.

Of course, the most eye-catching performance is still the gunner.

2 to 0 victory over Blackburn, 2 to 1 victory over Bolton.

本赛季连续29场不败，追平了英超单赛季29场（利兹联1973-74和利物浦1987-88）的单赛季不败纪录。

The Blues are not to be outdone, 2-0 Bolton, 2-1 Fulham, with a slight difference of 2 points, followed by the Gunners.

The Red Devils were a little finished. After two consecutive draws, they lost to Blue Moon Manchester City 1-4 in the same city derby, completely opening the gap between the top two teams.Although they beat Tottenham 3-0 in the latest round of the league, it didn't help.

Many Red Devils fans once said pessimistically: "Manchester United has given up the championship ahead of time!"

In the league, the Blues clung to the Gunners, and the Champions League matchup was not pulled down.

3月9日，切尔西队在斯坦福桥最终0比0逼平了作客的斯图加特队，以两回合1比0的最微弱优势跻身本赛季冠军联赛八强。

Ranieri's idea of ​​the game is simple: stick to Stamford Bridge.

Ranieri, who is known for his "marriage skills", said: In Naples, Atletico Madrid and Valencia, he "made wedding dresses for others", and the team achieved brilliant achievements after he left.He hopes the team he assembled at Chelsea will be the exception: "For me, building a team and watching it grow brings so much joy. I wish that once in my life, I get to see the team The whole process of blooming. I also hope that this time it is at Chelsea because I have a contract here until June 2006."

Although the idea of ​​the game was to follow the coach's instructions, the scene of the Blues' strong defense and weak attack still aroused the boos of the fans.

In the evening of the same day, the draw ceremony for the Champions League quarter-finals and subsequent stages was held in Nyon, Switzerland.

This time the UEFA Champions League draw has affected the hearts of many fans around the world, especially when there are still some "big gift packages" in the top 8.

In the end, Real Madrid won this "big gift package", and they will face Monaco in the quarter-finals.

The duel between the two teams has also attracted the attention of many fans. The reason is very simple-due to the needs of the Galacticos, Real Madrid striker Morientes was excluded at the beginning of the season and was loaned to Monaco.

The online edition of Spain's "Aspen" immediately published the eye-catching headline "Morientes is back". Reds".

However, this time he is the opponent of Real Madrid. I believe there will be many gimmicks during and after the game.

But Morientes said that he is not afraid of Real Madrid.Even in the Bernabeu, I still have the strength to score for Monaco!
The other "big gift package" was taken away by AC Milan, and they ran into Deportivo!
After the draw, Ancelotti also said: "Compared with last season, Deportivo's lineup has not changed much. Knowing ourselves and our enemies is beneficial to us."

The online version of Gazzetta dello Sport also published an article saying: "AC Milan has once again been blessed by luck this time."

Although AC Milan cheered, Deportivo also showed confidence in not being afraid of powerful enemies.

Deportivo Sanchez, general manager of Deportivo, said: "At this stage of the Champions League, no matter what the result is, I think it is acceptable. AC Milan is a great champion, there is no doubt about it, but we are not afraid of anyone, we Having eliminated Juventus before, I think we can also eliminate AC Milan, in any case, this will be a wonderful matchup, and it will also be another dialogue between Serie A and La Liga."

There are four teams left. For the Gunners and the Blues, there are two remaining packages that are not so "big", but none of them have been taken away by themselves.

Porto VS Lyon, Arsenal VS Chelsea.

As soon as such a result came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the British Isles.

"London derby again, can Chelsea escape the fateful matchup"

"The Champions League is surprised by the Premier League civil war, only the strong have the ability to touch the champion"

"The battle between red and blue, burn the anger into the Champions League"

Such a result surprised British fans, but it was not so difficult to accept.

The reason is simple. This draw not only determines the quarter-final matchup, but also the subsequent matchup.

Porto/Lyon vs Chelsea/Arsenal, Real Madrid/Monaco vs AC Milan/Deportivo!
In other words, the winner of Chelsea and Arsenal will avoid Real Madrid or the previous champion AC Milan in the semi-finals. For Premier League fans, the team they support undoubtedly has one foot into the final.

The day after the lottery ended, Terry was blocked by reporters.

"John, you said before that the team you want to meet the most is Arsenal. Now that the results are out, what do you think?"

"Of course I'm very happy!" Terry was still full of joy. "For Chelsea, Arsenal is the opponent they are most familiar with and the opponent they want to win the most. Although we were at a disadvantage in the past, from the perspective of probability , we have a great chance of winning. If we can eliminate the Gunners in the Champions League, I don't think so many defeats in the past four years have been in vain!"

People who have the same idea as Terry and Reyes of the Gunners, he made an appointment with the reporter of "The Times" early on.

"It's so lucky, this is God's favor for us!" The Spanish golden boy was ecstatic when facing the camera.

"It was God who arranged for us to advance directly to the semi-finals! Even the finals!"

"I admit that Chelsea are a very strong team, but it is a pity that they met us!"

"They should know that they cannot win against us!"

"This time around, I hope the name will be in Arsenal's unbeaten honor book again."

"Also, this time I'll make the six-fingered keeper look good. It couldn't be easier to get into his goal! I don't know if his extra fingers will become what he caught when he ran away after the game Tail!"

Reyes' arrogance caused dissatisfaction among all the players in the Blues.

Tang Wu's left hand is the guarantee of the team's defense, and no one has ever made fun of or even humiliated Tang Wu for this point.

"He's too young to be humble. Sooner or later he's going to pay for what he says and does!" said Lampard.

"A La Liga player who has just landed in the Premier League, the first thing he has to learn when he comes to this land is to keep his mouth shut. Obviously he has not done enough. I think the reality will make him suffer!" Mark Lailai sighed with the expression of someone who has come.

Duff, Glenn Johnson, Terry, Gudjohnsen, Crespo and others all also spoke out, accusing Reyes of groundless slander and arrogance.However, the young gunman obviously underestimated the determination of the London media to fan the flames. After repeated exaggerated reports, Reyes was completely unable to step down, so he had to bite the bullet and go all the way to the dark in interviews again and again.

Reyes' remarks also caused harassment from many Blues and Tang Wu fans.

They held up the "No Discrimination" sign and marched in front of Reyes' residence time and time again.

Only then did Reyes realize that Tang Wu, a young Chinese goalkeeper, already had so many senior fans in London.

"Maybe it's too high to pick him as a stepping stone!" Reyes thought.

But for a 20-year-old young lad, this is nothing.After all, as long as Tang Wu scores a goal, all the rumors will dissipate with the wind, and his troubles will be solved.

But what really made Reyes angry was what Tang Wu said to the media.

"Tom, Reyes said he will score at least three goals in the Champions League, what do you think?"

"Reyes?" Tang Wu scratched his head with the two middle fingers of his left hand, "Who is he?"
