A butterfly in the tropical rainforest of the Amazon River Basin in South America occasionally flaps its wings, which can cause a tornado in Texas, USA two weeks later.

Any seemingly insignificant change may cause a huge chain reaction.

When the results of the Champions League group draw were announced, everyone thought that Sporting CP was the bottom of the group.

And it turned out that they were indeed very weak.

In the first four rounds of the Champions League group stage, they did not score a single point and were at the bottom of the group.

But in the last two rounds of the game, they affected the pattern of the group.

In the penultimate round, Besiktas, who could advance in advance as long as they won, was blocked by Sporting CP.

A draw postponed the suspense of promotion.

And at this moment, it was also a draw, which once again extinguished Dortmund's enthusiasm for promotion.

After the last game, Dortmund was excited about the draw next door.

At the end of this game, Dortmund was silent about the draw.

The opportunity was right in front of them, but they failed to seize it.

After the last game, Dortmund fans even rushed into the official website of Sporting CP to pay tribute to them.

In their eyes, Sporting CP defeated Besiktas, which was equivalent to directly reporting Dortmund's promotion.

What a good brother!

Before this game, even a few Dortmund fans thought that their team could not win.

What they were most worried about was a conspiracy theory.

Dortmund fans were worried that Manchester United, which had advanced in advance, might let Besiktas advance in this game.

But in the end, Manchester United relied on its tenacious fighting spirit and almost defeated the Turkish team.

But according to the final result, even if Besiktas lost, Dortmund would not be able to advance because of the small goal difference.

Reality is so cruel.

In the end, Besiktas successfully advanced as the second in the group!

They were originally suppressed by Manchester United and lost the victory, and they were in a very bad mood.

But when the game whistle sounded, they saw the coaching staff on the sidelines excited, and they guessed the result.

The jersey exchange session at the end was much more relaxed and enjoyable.

Although the second half of the game was completely defeated, Talisca still had no aversion to Xia Xing, and was even full of admiration, and went forward to exchange jerseys.

"Xia, you are such a great player."

"Your performance in the first half was also great, and you almost beat Manchester United at Old Trafford."

"But you still achieved a reversal, especially your hat trick, it was really amazing, world-class."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"I heard that you have been receiving youth training in China before, is this true?"

"Yes, it is."

"In other words, your football strength is mainly cultivated by Chinese coaches?"

"Well, this, there are certain reasons."

"It's incredible, I have always had some prejudice against Chinese football before, and you have given me a new understanding."

"Why do you ask me this?"

"Nothing, just some small things, not important."

"Oh, well, I wish you all the best."

At this moment, Xia Xing could never have thought that it was his words that changed the trajectory of Talisca's career.

When we meet again, things will have changed...

This season's Champions League group stage has come to an end, with some people happy and some sad.

Manchester United and Besiktas qualified from Group A, while Dortmund was unfortunately eliminated.

Although Sporting CP failed to qualify and even had difficulty winning, they also played their own style.

Especially the last two draws, which made the qualifying story of Group A so ups and downs.

And Bruno Fernandez, who shined in the Champions League group stage this time, has attracted many eyes from the five major leagues, and he doesn't have much time left in Portugal.

The qualifying situation of Group B was as expected by everyone. Bayern and Paris Saint-Germain qualified together.

Celtic and Anderlecht even only got 3 points, and they only won one game against each other.

As the group of death, Group C has a more complicated qualifying situation.

Roma, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid fought for six rounds until the last game.

In the end, Roma defeated Atletico Madrid and successfully landed on the shore by stepping on the equally tough opponent.

In the end, Chelsea and Roma advanced together.

Group D was also a foregone conclusion, with Juventus and Barcelona advancing smoothly.

Spartak Moscow and Olympiacos had no chance to fight back.

In Group E, Liverpool secured their place in the promotion early, while Sevilla stumbled and only won Benfica in the last round and advanced with difficulty.

The final qualifying situation of Group F was beyond many people's expectations.

Manchester City was strong and advanced early. However, Napoli, which was also very competitive in the group, capsized. With four defeats in six games, their journey in this group stage can be described as a failure.

In the end, Shakhtar Donetsk won the second place in the group and successfully qualified.

Group G is an absolute group of death. Monaco, Basel, Porto, and RB Leipzig are four teams with equal strength, and it is reasonable for any of them to qualify, and every game is a head-on confrontation.

In the end, Basel and Porto broke through the siege and successfully qualified.

There was no suspense in Group H either, Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur successfully qualified, and the other two teams even only got two draws against each other.

So far, the top 16 of the Champions League have just been announced!

Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham from the Premier League!

Real Madrid, Barcelona and Sevilla from La Liga!

Juventus and Roma from Serie A!

Bayern from the Bundesliga!

Paris from Ligue 1!

Twelve teams from the five major leagues, and four teams from other countries.

Swiss giants Basel, Turkish Super League powerhouse Besiktas, Ukrainian powerhouse Shakhtar Donetsk, and "European black shop" Porto from Portugal.

The Premier League won the Champions League last 16 this time.

Because Manchester United was the champion of the Europa League last season, the Premier League has one more place to participate.

For the Premier League, as long as it enters the Champions League group stage, it will not be far from qualifying.

The current Premier League is definitely the strongest team in Europe, with five of the big six directly entering.

The missing one is a little embarrassing...

Compared with the Premier League's all-powerful teams, the Bundesliga and Ligue 1 are very embarrassing.

It is still a one-man show between Bayern and Paris. The two teams have grabbed too many domestic resources, which has a great impact on the strength of other teams and the development of their own leagues.

La Liga and Serie A are still relatively normal, and basically all the teams that should be promoted have advanced.

Atletico Madrid and Naples have also been affected by the team's signings and injuries this season, and their strength has been damaged.

Next, it is the moment that everyone is looking forward to.

The draw ceremony for the Champions League quarter-finals is about to begin!
