57. World Club Cup
Yes, when seeing this result, almost all Serie A fans and Premier League fans thought that there was something shady about the Champions League draw, a super shady one. Especially the Premier League fans thought so, because the fate of the Premier League teams in this year’s Champions League draw was really
It was so sad, so sad that everyone saw the dark side.
Not to mention the top three teams in the Premier League, which are against the top three in Serie A, you can tell just by looking at the draw between Liverpool and Real Madrid that there is a lot of shady stuff going on.
The "relationship" between Liverpool's head coach Rafael Benitez and the La Liga team has exposed UEFA's shady intentions. Isn't this just to increase the spectacle?
These two teams are really very close. The two teams have won the Champions League a total of fifteen times. This is simply a showdown between the champions of the Champions League. The total number of times they have reached the finals is as many as twenty times.
These two teams are simply the giants of the Champions League.
However, this time there must be a team that needs to fall early and cannot even enter the quarterfinals. In fact, Liverpool's third Champions League trophy was won after defeating Real Madrid in the final.
Although that was the only time the two clubs had played against each other before, Liverpool was in the same group with Atletico Madrid, another club of Madrid City, in the group stage. In February next year, in addition to the highlight of Torres, he was born in Real Madrid.
Madrid's Rafael Benitez is also worthy of attention when facing his old club. Of course, Real Madrid's current head coach Ramos is no stranger to Liverpool. After all, he stayed at White Hart Lane for almost a full year.
There is really an inextricable relationship between these two teams. UEFA's arrangement is really painstaking, and all the fans can see this.
As soon as the situation of the Champions League top 16 matches was announced, it immediately attracted the attention, reports and comments of countless media. The British media immediately made a large-scale report on it.
England's "The Times" reported on the draw under the title "Four Giants, Four Battles". The article mainly mentioned that the European champions Liverpool and Manchester United encountered Real Madrid and Inter Milan, which also meant that they would fall into a new situation.
A round of war of words.
In the article, they also said: "Manchester United will face Inter Milan, and we will see Mourinho return to Old Trafford for the first time since leaving Chelsea. There are many things to watch in this game, of course, mainly in Jose Mourinho.
Regarding Rinho, what kind of answer will the Portuguese coach give after returning to England? Can he continue to suppress Alex Ferguson?"
In addition to this, they also mentioned the other top three in the Premier League: "José Mourinho's old club Chelsea will face the Bianconeri Juventus who are currently chasing Inter Milan, and the "Old Woman" coach Ranie
Leigh is another former Chelsea coach. Ranieri's return to Stamford Bridge may be a great opportunity for the tinker to prove himself to the Chelsea people."
Then they talked about Arsenal's game: "The showdown between Arsenal and Roma is a good opportunity for Roma to take revenge on the Premier League. Of course they want to regain the face they lost to Manchester United."
Finally, "The Times" said about the last champion Liverpool: "The showdown between Liverpool and Real Madrid can be regarded as the most important showdown in the history of the Champions League, because the two teams have entered the Champions League finals a staggering number of times.
Twenty times, and the total number of championships reached an astonishing fifteen times, what is this if not a super heavyweight showdown?"
At this time, England's "The Sun" reported the news that "Real Madrid poached the Red Army and Benitez changed hands before the quarter-finals."
The "Sun" report stated: "At the beginning of the league this season, Real Madrid took a fancy to Liverpool's head coach Benitez, and Benitez was not happy in Liverpool at the time. Liverpool
The American boss was very reluctant to take Benitez. Real Madrid found Benitez at that time and hoped that Benitez could return to Spain to coach.
Although Benitez stayed temporarily because of the retention of Liverpool's American owner, news recently came out that Benitez has been away from Real Madrid for a long time. The two sides seem to have reached some kind of agreement privately, next year
In January, Benitez will leave Liverpool for Spain.
In other words, when Real Madrid faces Liverpool in February next year, Benitez will appear on the sidelines of the game. However, they will not appear on the Liverpool coaching bench, but on the Real Madrid bench.
On the coaching bench in Madrid.
It was definitely a very interesting scene.”
As soon as this news from "The Sun" came out, it scared the fans of Liverpool. Benitez cannot leave at this time. Liverpool still needs him.
The Daily Mail reviewed a single game:
Chelsea vs. Juventus: This is the first game to be drawn. Former Chelsea coach Ranieri will face Scolari’s team. Chelsea avoided Mourinho in this round, but faced the tinker.
Had a date.
Real Madrid vs. Liverpool: According to the rules, Real Madrid could only meet English clubs at that time, but they avoided Manchester United and then met six-time Champions League champion Liverpool. This was the most important matchup in European history. And Bayern
Niites will return to his hometown, and of course former Tottenham coach Ramos will also get a chance to refute the accusations made against him by the English media.
Arsenal played against Roma. Chelsea had a hard time playing Roma. Now Roma's goal is to play the final at home, but the Gunners may be happier to avoid Barcelona in the first round of knockout.
Inter Milan vs. Manchester United: This is the first time Jose Mourinho has a date with Alex Ferguson after leaving the Premier League. After leaving the Premier League, can Jose Mourinho still continue to suppress Alex Ferguson?
Where is Ferguson? This is a suspense.
In the eyes of the English, the top 16 matchup between the Premier League teams is full of excitement and risks, so it is not a good draw.
According to the Spanish media, overall the signings of La Liga teams this year are very good. In their view, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Submarine have bright prospects for promotion, while Real Madrid has faced poor Champions League results in recent years.
Popular Liverpool is in bad shape.
"Marca" believes that the opponents of Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Submarine are not strong. These three teams should work together to enter the top 16 if they perform normally, while Real Madrid got the worst draw.
The Red Army Liverpool has entered the semi-finals three times in the past four years and has also won the Champions League twice. Liverpool is now the defending champion, very strong and in the limelight. Real Madrid is likely to be blocked for the fifth consecutive season.
Outside the top eight gates.
The situation of the two teams is so different. In recent years, Real Madrid has been really shabby in front of Liverpool. Real Madrid is really in trouble.
"World Sports News" stated that the showdown between Real Madrid and Liverpool was a repeat of the 1981 Champions League final. They also believed that Real Madrid had drawn the worst draw, especially since Liverpool has been one of the teams with the best results in the Champions League in recent years.
.
Liverpool, which has five Spanish players, is very familiar with Real Madrid, especially striker Torres, who was once Real Madrid's rival Atletico Madrid. Real Madrid coach Ramos will also play against Benitez again. No matter from which aspect, Real Madrid
Madrid's chances of winning are very slim, and this draw is really terrible.
Of course, "World Sports News" is very optimistic about Barcelona. They believe that Lyon is simply not enough to stop Barcelona, because in history, the French champion has never defeated Barcelona. It has not done so in the past and will never do so in the future.
Real Madrid's mouthpiece "AS" also published an article saying that Real Madrid's prospects are worrying after the draw of the top 16. Liverpool is one of the teams with the best results in the Champions League in recent years. They have a faint tendency to rise, and Real Madrid
In recent years, Madrid has been getting worse year by year, with Meng Hachiro every year. Comparing the two teams, they are clearly superior.
Of course, "AS" encouraged Real Madrid in the end. They believed that Liverpool was not incapable of defeating them. As long as they devoted themselves to the game, they still had a chance to defeat Liverpool. Of course, if Bayern is to be defeated in January next year
If Niites is brought to Real Madrid, Real Madrid's chances of winning will be even greater.
Nowadays, there are a lot of reports from the outside media about the Champions League's top 16, almost all of which are about the draw of the Champions League's top 16. At this time, Liverpool was far away from Europe, the center of the incident, and they flew to distant Asia.
.
The Liverpool team has flown to distant Asia to participate in this year's Club World Cup.
The FIFA Club World Cup, referred to as the Club World Cup, is an international football championship hosted by FIFA and participated by the top clubs from six continents.
The first World Club Cup was held in Brazil in January 2000. FIFA hopes that the event can change the original pattern of European and South American clubs participating in the Intercontinental Cup (Toyota Cup). In this new event, it can attract the best players from six continents around the world.
The top clubs participated, but unfortunately FIFA was unable to reach an agreement with the organizer of the Intercontinental Cup, so the Intercontinental Cup could continue to be held, and the World Club Cup was held as usual in 2000.
From January 5 to 14, 2000, the first FIFA World Club Championship was held in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. A total of 8 clubs from Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, Oceania, Central and North America participated.
The event is divided into two groups, with 4 teams in each group competing for the championship. The first place in the two groups will compete for the championship, and the second place in the group will decide the third and fourth places. In the end, Corentes and Vasco da Gama from the host Brazil met in the final, and Colombia
Lientes won the first Club World Cup via a penalty shootout.
The first World Club Cup was not welcomed by the outside world. The second tournament was originally scheduled to be held in Spain in 2001, with the number of participating teams increased to 12. However, the FIFA marketing company ISL suddenly closed down and the final event was canceled. In 2003
It was planned to resume the event, but it still could not be held. In the end, FIFA and the Intercontinental Cup reached an agreement to merge the two events into one, and the re-launched FIFA Club World Cup was officially held in Japan in 2005.
Every subsequent tournament has been held in Japan, and this year's World Club Cup is also held in Japan.
This is not the first time that Liverpool has participated in the World Club Cup. When the World Club Cup was restored in 2005, Liverpool was the European Champions Cup champion that year. Liverpool also participated in the 2005 World Club Cup that year.
That year, Liverpool competed with Brazil's Sao Paulo, the champion of the Copa Libertadores, for the final championship. However, Liverpool's performance in that game was not ideal. In the end, they lost to Brazil's Sao Paulo 0-1 and lost the chance to win the World Club Cup.
.
This time, Liverpool once again came to Asia, to Japan, to participate in the World Club Cup. They certainly did not want to repeat the same mistakes they made three years ago. This time they came to Japan to win the championship.
