Chapter 750: The Best Fortune

By March 18, the Champions League round of 16 was over. Trapani, Bordeaux, Inter Milan, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, CSKA Moscow, Arsenal, and Manchester United were the eight teams that entered the quarterfinals. Bordeaux and CSKA Moscow were the two weakest teams among the eight teams. They were the dream lovers of the other teams. Everyone wanted to be with them. Bordeaux had certain strength, but they did not have the strength to challenge the other teams. CSKA Moscow was the weakest. It was already March, and they had no advantage in the ice and snow. It was a blessing from God to make it to the quarterfinals, let alone the semifinals.

Hugo returned to Italy at this time, and Pasilio was still resting in the United States, where his condition improved and he became more energetic. The middle-aged generation of the Colleni family, Ricardo and Giovanni, also stayed there, but they would not stay there for too long. No matter how unhappy they were, they had to come out to work. Alda had invited them back to Italy. The Colleni family's business had gradually tended to the United States, but they also had a lot of affairs in Italy. Ricardo and Giovanni could still contribute a lot. They were in their 50s and were in their prime.

Julia's belly in Trapani was a little big, and Hugo planned to return to Trapani to accompany his wife at ease and reduce the number of visits. Of course, he still had to focus on business matters. The headquarters of the investment company was originally in Trapani.

Morek planned a new urban area, located around the Google Stadium. Hugo Investment Group will build a high-rise building here as the new headquarters building, and construction has already started.

Hugo actually likes the current situation. It seems like he is playing a game, pushing this city and the team bit by bit. Sometimes he feels quite accomplished.

Julia accompanied Hugo to watch the draw for the quarterfinals. Hugo hoped to draw a good draw because he was a little disappointed with Trapani's condition. The game against Lyon was not a turning point for the team, but the beginning of Trapani's bad luck. Vucinic played hooliganism, and the team suddenly encountered another wave of injuries. Kaka was injured again in the weekend league after Lyon. After an examination at the Trapani Medical Center, the thigh groin was his old injury. The medical center suggested to Kaka that he should have surgery immediately, and the recovery period may take four months or even half a year.

Kaka is basically scrapped this season, and then Suarez was injured. He had a knee injury and had to undergo a minor operation, but the recovery time only took two months.

Finally, Schweinsteiger was injured. Schweinsteiger had a metatarsal injury and needed to recover for a month.

Three players in the main lineup have been injured. Bielsa and Trapani are having a hard time.

So Hugo hopes Trapani can have some good luck and draw Bordeaux or CSKA Moscow.

Seeing Butragueno standing on the draw table, Hugo suddenly wanted to laugh, laughing at Real Madrid and Butragueno. The venue of this season's Champions League final is at the Bernabeu Stadium. At the beginning of this season, the old man waved his check with great fanfare and purchased excellent players. It was very obvious that he wanted to enter the Champions League final. However, God did not give him this face. In this season's Champions League round of 16, Real Madrid was eliminated again. This is the sixth consecutive year that they have fallen at the threshold of the quarterfinals. The title of "Champions League Sixteen Lang" is not for nothing.

Thinking of the old man's huge investment and Butragueno on the stage at this moment, it is indeed a bit funny.

Julia also found it funny after listening to Hugo's explanation. This is a very embarrassing thing!

"I hope this unlucky guy doesn't bring bad luck to me!" Hugo joked.

"You and Platini don't get along so well, maybe today's draw is very unfavorable to us!" Julia was a little worried. As a wife, she knew that the story between Hugo and Platini was long and stinky.

"Hmph, don't worry, it won't happen! That was many years ago!" Hugo snorted and sneered twice, but he was unsure in his heart. He couldn't bring down Platini, but Platini was making things difficult for him everywhere. In terms of the politics of the European football circle, Platini is now in his heyday, and Hugo would have a little difficulty even if he wanted to make trouble for him.

However, if Platini really deliberately made trouble for him, he would not give up. Galliani was so awesome that he drove Hugo out of office, but Hugo finally got back on his feet and tricked Berlusconi. Platini is now in his heyday, and he will always find opportunities in the future, right?

Platini really had no intention of dealing with Hugo. After all, Hugo had not been involved in political affairs for the past two years, and there was no conflict of interest between him and him. The result of the draw could explain everything, because Trapani drew a good lot, and they continued to face a French team, Bordeaux, in the quarterfinals.

Seeing the result, Hugo and Julia hugged and kissed each other, "Good lot, this is a good lot!" Hugo's tone was full of surprise, and they were indeed surprised. This result was simply great!

Hugo was so excited that he wanted to hug Platini and kiss him, but it was a pity that Platini was not here.

At the draw site at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, Kenyon and Morek, who attended the draw ceremony, both showed mysterious smiles. Obviously, they were very satisfied with the draw result, but they had to respect people and not smile too brightly. Morek's smile was a bit like crying because he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart.

The people on the Bordeaux side didn't care. For them, it didn't matter who they drew. It was completely unimaginable to draw CSKA Moscow. Trapani's draw was indeed very bad, but after all, their expectations for the Champions League were not too high.

But it would be incorrect to say that Bordeaux had no strength at all, because in the group stage, Bordeaux was in the same group with Bayern Munich and Roma. This group was the legendary death group. People thought that Bordeaux was accompanying the prince to study, and playing in the Europa League was the best choice.

Who knew that Bordeaux said: "No, why should I play in the Europa League? Can't Bayern Munich and Roma play?!"

So Bordeaux caught up and fought hard in the group stage, and then became the first in the group. In the round of 16, they met Olympiacos, who eats melons every year. Bordeaux kicked them back to Greece and advanced to the quarterfinals.

Of course, Bordeaux's performance in the Champions League this season is amazing, and what is even more amazing is their performance in Ligue 1 last season. Aulas' dream of eight consecutive championships was ended by Bordeaux.

Trapani is a good draw, but another Italian team, Inter Milan, drew an unlucky draw. They encountered the La Liga giants and last year's champion Barcelona.

This is a very interesting game. First of all, Mourinho is from Barcelona, ​​but he doesn't get along with Barcelona or Guardiola. The two had the experience of competing for jobs. This is only one aspect. On the other hand, when Mourinho led Chelsea, he had a big grudge with Barcelona. This time, when he returned to Camp Nou to welcome Mourinho, he was definitely booed.

Secondly, this is a battle against the old boss. Mourinho, Motta, and Eto'o are all old players in Inter Milan, and Ibrahimovic on the Barcelona side is also an old player of Inter Milan, so this game is bound to be very lively, and it may be the most lively game in the quarterfinals.

After the draw, the excitement was reflected. Many reporters were concerned about the story between Barcelona and Inter Milan. Not many people cared about Trapani and Bordeaux. The French media was very concerned because the French believed that their team would be a dark horse to the end. The media in Italy and other countries did not think so. Bordeaux had not tasted failure in the previous Champions League, but now their real test has come.
