Chapter 160 Champions League Draw
After the Community Shield ended, the media had different opinions on Arsenal's prospects.

Some people think that the challenges Arsenal will face this season will be unprecedentedly strong, and Liverpool's performance is no worse than Arsenal's. Perhaps this season will be a good opportunity for the Red Army to rebuild its glory.

Some media believe that the curse of the Community Shield will continue to plague the championship team. Liverpool has a good start, but it is hard to predict whether it will last.On the contrary, although Arsenal let go of Pires, Wiltord, Grimandi, Ashley Cole and many other stars, the team's operation is still normal, and the prospect of the defending champion's league is still optimistic.

Some media believe that the players released by Arsenal are not the core of Arsenal. There is Du Shasha in the front and Vieira in the back (I am dizzy, why does it still rhyme?), Arsenal's strength has not declined at all.What is considered is the trouble caused by the two-line battle. The depth of Arsenal's bench may be the key factor in determining the future of the defending champion this season.

On August 8, the draw ceremony for the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage was held in Bern, the capital of Switzerland.

The coaches of each team brought their own stars to participate.

This season's UEFA Champions League still adopts the two-round group stage competition system, but this competition system will soon come to an end, and the new competition system with the addition of the quarter-finals after the group stage round will replace this traditional competition system.

Du Shasha followed Wenger to participate in the lottery ceremony. When she walked into the venue, almost all the media reporters surrounded her and snapped.

This is the treatment of a star, and Du Shasha has fallen in love with this feeling now. She put her hands on her chest and waved her hands slightly, showing a very cute look.

However, the organizing committee quickly came forward to stop this crazy shooting. After all, this has affected the people behind to come in, and the order of the venue has come to a standstill.

"Haha, Sasha, your popularity is awesome, I'm jealous." When the order was restored, Fei Luo was the first to walk in, followed by Father Mo.

"Hey, I can't help it. Beautiful people are popular everywhere. Where is it like you? With a tiled head, you look like a carrot again." Du Shasha pretended to sigh, but said sarcastically.

Fei Luo smiled again, and said, "That's right, that's right, but in football, beauty alone is not enough. If you win the Champions League this season, you will be the most beautiful."

Fei Luo made a pun, not only pointing out the true meaning of the beauty of the football world, but also reminding Du Shasha that after winning the Champions League and the league championship, she must go to Inter Milan to pair with him to reshape the glory of the big Inter era.

"It's not easy. European football is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. All the teams have strengthened this season, but our Arsenal has lost most of the main players. Hey, think about my tears and nose and so on. Obscene." Du Shasha squeezed her eyes, pretending to be crying.

Fei Luo couldn't bear it any longer, and laughed so hard that he leaned back and forth.

"Come on, let's go there." Fei Luo grabbed Du Shasha's hand, and the two walked to a corner and began to whisper.

After the draw ceremony began, the invited guests were the captains from the World Cup semi-finals, and they will draw 8 seeded teams.

Kahn, the captain of the German team, Bei Shuaiguo, the captain of the England team, Ma Mingyu, the captain of the Huaguo team, and Hong Mingpu, the captain of the Bangzi team, stepped onto the rostrum.

The host first introduced the four guests, and then the lottery ceremony officially began.

The first eight seeded teams will be drawn out. The defending champions Real Madrid, Bayern, Barcelona, ​​AC Milan, Juventus, Manchester United, Leverkusen, and Arsenal will be drawn by four guests, which are called the seeded teams of the AH group. .

Kahn drew the first team. He opened the ball and took out the note inside, showing that it was Bayern, which means that Bayern became the seeded team in Group A.

Bei Shuaiguo drew Manchester United to Group B, Ma Mingyu drew Barcelona to Group C, and Hong Mingpu drew Leverkusen to Group D.

Kahn played for the second time, and this time he drew Juventus to Group E, Bei Shuaiguo also drew Arsenal to Group F, AC Milan was drawn to Group G by Ma Mingyu, and the final seed team in Group H was naturally Defending champions Real Madrid.

There is actually no mystery in the draw under this competition system, because there is still a second round of group matches, so there is no distinction between the upper half and the lower half.

It's just a matter of picking the top team and then drawing the other 24 European powerhouses into these eight groups.

After the first round of lottery, the super sister group was invited to perform a song at the lottery scene.

Du Shasha, who was still whispering to Fei Luo just now, appeared on the stage.

The performance was "You and Me". As the music sounded, the performance of the Super Sisters also began.

The focus of everyone's attention is Du Shasha. Everyone knows that she is a good football player, but not everyone knows that she is also the lead singer of the Super Sisters.

The sounds of nature lingered in everyone's ears. At this time, 99% of the people were already drunk.

After singing the song, everyone clapped their hands vigorously, but the Super Sisters did not go down.

The host then came up and presided over the draw ceremony.

The guests invited in the second round of lottery were Super Sisters. When the host introduced them, everyone suddenly realized.

In addition to the Super Sisters, the organizing committee also invited the retired Ice Prince Bergkamp, ​​the famous Italian star Baggio, the German star Klinsmann, the French star Papin, and the new Manchester City coach Polo King.

Du Shasha was the first to draw lots unceremoniously. She stretched out her hand and stirred vigorously in the glass jar, while thinking in her heart: "Be sure to draw Inter Milan to Bayern, or Valencia."

After finally choosing a ball, Du Shasha took it out, opened it, and was amused, it was really Valencia.

As the strongest team in the second tier, Valencia once reached the UEFA Champions League final twice in the 99-00/00-01 season, but they were runners-up both times. Their sufferers include the seeded teams in Group A Bayern, this time the two teams are divided into a group, so they will pinch them.

Off the field, Bayern coach Hitzfeld and Valencia coach Benitez both showed wry smiles, and they didn't want to meet their opponents.

Du Shasha mischievously gave a 'YE' gesture to Wenger, and the audience burst into laughter.

"Haha, this girl is really interesting."

"Great, Du Shasha dumped Valencia to Bayern, and our difficulty is less."

"It's a good show to watch now. The Valencia revenge battle is something to watch."

"Du Shasha is indeed Wenger's lucky general, and she has lost a powerful opponent in this way."

Cheryl, the second draw, gave Ajax to Manchester United. Ajax is known as the "dream factory" of European football. Talents continue to emerge, and Manchester United will not feel good.

Amy, the third draw, chose their opponent Panathinaikos for Barcelona last season. It seems that there is a certain number in the dark. God wants Panathinaikos revenge, but this season Panathinaikos Let go of many main players, I am afraid it will be difficult to avenge, and it will be fine not to be hanged by Barcelona.

Subsequent stars also drew second-tier teams one after another, and Liverpool also encountered Leverkusen. This is also the rhythm of revenge.

Juventus ran into Dortmund. In the 96-97 season, the Old Lady lost to Dortmund in the Champions League final. In this way, the two teams are also enemies.

And Klinsmann drew his old club Inter Milan to Arsenal, which made Wenger shake his head again and again, Du Shasha was also depressed, and took away Valencia, but still came to Inter Milan, counting his own factors Inside, how could he be so inextricably linked that he couldn't figure it out?

After the second round of draws, the award ceremony of the European Ballon d'Or will be held.

Three award-winning candidates Kahn, Ballack and Owen appeared on the stage. The final winner was Ballack. Although he was a bit depressed in the club, he helped the German team win the World Cup, which gave him a lot of points.

Ballack has switched to Bayern Munich this season, and Bayern's strength is even stronger.

Du Shasha's ranking in the goal award is 4th, only one step away from her debut, and the club's frustration in the Champions League is the biggest reason.

But this season, Du Shasha has vowed to make a comeback.

Subsequent teams from the third and fourth tiers were also drawn into each group. In addition to Inter Milan, Arsenal's opponents also included Feyenoord and Lens. The results of the draw were generally satisfactory.

After the lottery draw, Du Shasha returned to London with Wenger and Bei Shuaiguo. The first round of the Premier League will start in a week, and the journey of the new season will start!
