Star Coach

Olsson finished his nonsense and finally began to draw lots.

Eight strong teams compete against each other, and the whole process is exciting, which is a blessing for fans.

The top eight teams were displayed one by one through a short video. Today's draw will be divided into two parts. The first part is to draw the top eight teams, and the second part is the semifinals matchup situation.

Milan's promotion situation is very strong, and the group stage is a breeze. In the round of 16 against Real Madrid, they almost swept through, beating the Galacticos to the point of losing their temper, and beating their head coach until he resigned.

Other head coaches are paying attention to Jiangshan. No one wants to meet Milan in advance. There is definitely no easy way to get through. They all hoped that fellow Taoists would rush forward first, watch closely, and then think of ways to crack it.

Jiangshan has become the public enemy of the coaching staff. He was a little speechless. I'm not a monster. Why are you afraid of me? Everyone is at full level, who is afraid of whom?

Especially the strong teams in the Premier League, with their well-supplied players and explosive combat effectiveness, they are hard to guard against. If Jiangshan chooses its opponents, it doesn't want to choose a Premier League team.

Crash.

The ball rolls quickly, and the eight balls are like special numbers. Whoever is drawn out first will play home first.

The first small ball was caught, and when I opened it, I saw that the one starting with A was not Milan.

"Arsenal!"

Wenger is wearing his iconic smile. Arsenal are in great shape this season. The team has set a record for conceding the fewest goals in the Champions League. They also defeated Bayern in the round of 16 and advanced strongly. At this time, Wenger was high-spirited and eager to win the Champions League trophy in France, which was his base camp.

In fact, France is also Jiangshan's home base, and he only achieved great success in Ligue 1.

The team within the second small ball will become Arsenal's opponent. Liverpool in the Premier League, plus other national leagues are possible, including AC Milan.

"Juventus."

The first matchup is between Arsenal and Juventus.

Capello breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to face the enemy, at least he had something to fight for. The Juventus team also includes Arsenal's old captain Vieira, and the new captain Fabregas arranged pizza to entertain the old captain.

UEFA likes to use this trick. If there are entanglements and bonds, it will be interesting. Fans love it.

Next is the second group of eight quarter-finals.

Take out the ball again and break it open. The text is very simple.

Inter Milan. The International is also anxious to achieve a breakthrough in the Champions League. Moratti has invested countless money, but has not been able to fulfill this wish. Unfortunately, during this period, his team was suppressed by the Holy Alliance and it was difficult to turn around.

The time to be the master of the house is almost here.

Inter Milan's opponent may be any team in the Premier League, or it may be Barcelona. Of course, Premier League teams are more likely.

"Manchester United!"

Sure enough, it is a Premier League team, and it is still the most difficult team to deal with in the Premier League.

Mancini's face was a bit ugly. He was facing Manchester United. It seemed that the Champions League was difficult to play. They didn't have much pressure in the league, so they just wanted to stay in the Champions League. Now they don't need to stay in the Champions League. Against Manchester United, they can't do it without giving their best.

Ferguson breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately it's not Milan. I don't know who among the unlucky Chelsea, Liverpool and Barcelona will encounter Milan. Haha..."

He thought of Jiang Shan's bold words when he met them at noon, "Milan must win the championship this year." It sounded scary, and young people didn't know how to be humble at all.

In the third group of matchups, there are four teams left, two in the Premier League, Chelsea and Liverpool, and then Milan and Barcelona. There is no avoidance clause between the four teams, and they are all likely to meet.

Pull out the ball and spread out the note.

"Chelsea!"

Chelsea. Cars, Blues, the new giants rising in the Premier League.

It is very likely that it will be a showdown between old and new giants. UEFA likes to create an atmosphere where the upstarts take over and the old giants stand in the way. On the road to winning the championship, the mighty Monaco encountered Real Madrid, which was still at its peak. It was an exciting match where Mars collided with the earth.

Mourinho smiled slightly. The journey of first home and then away was not very favorable. "As long as I don't encounter AC Milan, I am confident to complete the breakthrough."

Chelsea are very strong this year and are inextricably tied with Manchester United in the league, but they are more stable than Manchester United. Manchester United's defense has always been a hidden danger.

Mourinho instinctively looked at Jiangshan, who was looking at the podium calmly.

Then another small ball was drawn out.

"AC Milan!"

When Milan meets the Blues, the bargaining chip between the powerful and the upstarts is indeed the handiwork of UEFA. Will Milan stop the Blues from becoming a new giant?

Jiang Shan and Mourinho laughed at the same time and nodded to each other. In a tough confrontation, will Chelsea's bus run over Milan's classic car?

The last set of matchups is also out, Liverpool vs. Barcelona. Liverpool's journey was at home and then away, putting them in a disadvantageous position.

The first stage of drawing lots is completed, and there is still the second stage of drawing lots. Draw the semi-final matches.

This ceremony is much simpler. The results of the quarterfinals have not yet appeared, and both sides have a chance. But the upper and lower halves are different. After the upper and lower halves are drawn, one team from each will enter the final venue.

The top half is the combination of Arsenal/Juventus and Inter Milan/Manchester United. The winner between them will advance to the finals.

In the lower half, Milan/Chelsea were drawn together with Liverpool/Barcelona. The winner between them will also advance to the finals.

The venue for the 2006 Champions League final was the Stade de France in Paris.

If Milan wants to advance to the final, it must not only defeat Chelsea, but also the winner between Liverpool and Barcelona. The intensity is actually similar to the first half of the Champions League, and the strength is very balanced.

Mourinho and Benítez, two coaches who won the Champions League in the past two years, may meet Jiangshan.

"Exciting duel, difficult game."

Mourinho has more thoughts. He is thinking hard about how to destroy Milan. It is very difficult, but with the combination of Drogba, Robben and Duff, Lampard in the midfield, and Terry in the backcourt, it is definitely possible to overturn Milan.

Jiangshan also agrees with Mourinho's idea. Chelsea is definitely the most difficult enemy to deal with. The old man in Milan is really not as fast as Chelsea's express car. There is no way. The body structure may be different.

"Our promotion may be even smaller than Chelsea. Their defense is very hard, and with players like Drogba, we can't make any mistakes."

"These two games will even determine the direction of our season. We will do our best." Jiangshan said calmly. He doesn't seem to care about his opponent. When he praises his opponent, he sometimes despises him.

Mourinho showed his crazy side, "I have been waiting for a long time. Jiangshan is a coach I respect very much. I am eager to play against him because I think we have the possibility of winning."

"The most important thing is that Jiangshan did not show up in the 2004 Champions League final, which made me very disappointed. I am eager to meet him. Now, the opportunity has come."

"We hope to win the series, so that Chelsea will achieve a complete transformation. I am eager to win the game, and I will not hide my thoughts, just like Jiangshan."
