PS: This is a 106,000-plus recommendation, and the next time the 109,000-plus recommendation is a 109,000-plus recommendation, well, that's it.

When Zhuang Mingge saw that the representative of the Dortmund club was no longer Heathfield, but Italian coach Scala, he sighed secretly, saying that the Dortmund senior executives took a wrong step, and their unwise actions completely ruined the Hornets' hope of challenging Bayern Munich's hegemony!

Although due to Zhuang Mingge's time travel, Dortmund did not win the European Champions League trophy last season as in history, the two league championship trophys and a silver medal still made stars such as Summer, Paul Sousa, Andres Muller and other stars become complacent, which made Heathfield no longer able to make these players obey his commands as before.

In Zhuang Mingge's view, Heathfield's importance to Dortmund's team is far greater than that of stars like Summer. If it weren't for his strategic planning, Dortmund would not have enough ability to challenge Bayern's dominance in Germany.

Heathfield is also very smart. He knew that he could no longer make these stars obey his tactical arrangements. The club's senior management also chose to stand on the side of the stars between him and the players. In this case, the team's record will inevitably suffer a significant decline.

Therefore, Heathfield decisively resigned from his position as Dortmund's head coach in the summer and was promoted to the club's technical director. After some screening, the senior Dortmund leaders found Scala, who had good results in Parma, as the team's new coach.

"I was dismissed by the unsatisfied old Tanji in Parma. Now I'm here to Dortmund, which is uncontrollable in the locker room. Coach Scala is really unlucky!" Looking at Scala standing in the venue and chatting and laughing with the representatives of other teams, but his expression could not hide his fatigue, Zhuang Mingge immediately realized that the former Parma coach had not had a good life in Dortmund.

Even Heathfield, who is good at making good relationships with players, can't help but be able to control these players who are so proud of their tails. What can Scala, who is a newcomer and has no foundation in Dortmund?

Boss Mo Da did not hear Zhuang Mingge's comment, because at this time he had already gone to exchange feelings with Francesca Tanji, who had just arrived at the venue. He probably wanted to ask the other party how to sell their Crespo...

"I'm afraid the senior management of Dortmund did not realize the problems in the team now." Karin took over the conversation and analyzed calmly, "After all, in the eyes of those people, the team has just replaced a head coach, and the first team has not lost many players, and none of the main players have left. Moreover, Scala's coaching ability has been proven in Parma, so they feel that the team's problems are not big, right?"

"Haha, I didn't take this time to consolidate Heathfield's authority, nor did I take the opportunity to update the teams that have shown signs of aging... I think the expressions of Dortmund's senior executives will definitely be very interesting after this season starts."

Just as Zhuang Mingge and Karin were commenting on the Dortmundians' self-destruction of the Great Wall in their seats, the 1997-98 European Champions League group draw ceremony finally announced the beginning of the music!

Among the 32 teams participating in the Champions League group stage, there are four teams from Serie A, La Liga and Premier League, and three teams ranked fourth in the Bundesliga. In other words, clubs from the four major leagues occupy fifteen of them. After the reform of the Champions League, the strength of the four major leagues can be seen.

If the fifth-ranked Ligue 1 league is included, this proportion will further increase.

The names of thirty-two teams participating in the Champions League group stage appeared on the big screen directly in front of Zhuang Mingge. According to the rules set by UEFA, the teams on the screen were divided into four levels.

As the winner of the UEFA Champions League for two consecutive times, Fiorentina was naturally assigned to the first level by UEFA, and formed eight teams in the first level together with Dortmund, Juventus, Parma, Barcelona, ​​Ajax, Monaco and Manchester United.

Last season's La Liga champion Real Madrid was tragically assigned to the second level due to his lack of performance in the European game in recent years, and had to face the fate of fighting against strong enemies in advance in the group stage.

After giving a brief opening remark, the host on the spot immediately announced that the group lottery ceremony had officially begun!

"Hey, Michelle." Just as Platini, who was a special guest, was about to go on stage to start the lottery ceremony, a voice stopped him, "Don't draw in groups like last time, try to make the result more natural. I heard that Old Man Johnson has already set his sights on you, and is waiting to catch the handle and drive you out of UEFA."

"Haha, what can he do to drive me away?" Platini shrugged indifferently and said, "Manipulate the lottery results? Please! I'm not the only one who did this. If he dares to deal with me for this reason, he will not be able to take it away!"

"Oh, anyway, I'm talking about it, it's your own business to listen to it. By the way, you did it very clearly in the last quarter draw. You drew two top-ranked Serie A teams, Manchester United and Atletico Madrid into one and a half zones. Many people think you did it intentionally!"

"Well, as you say, I'm just doing it more concealed this time, isn't it enough?" Platini said, turning around and walking towards the ceremony venue.

Tsk! What to say is to ensure fair competition. For a giant team like Fiorentina, UEFA should arrange a lot of powerful opponents for it and cause trouble for this conservative team as much as possible. Otherwise, it will win the championship every time, so what is the attractiveness of the European Champions League? How can the artistic football I am looking forward to go to the front stage?!

For these ideas, in the subsequent draw ceremony, the "conservative team" that Platini hated was once again assigned to a death group by the former French superstar!

Serie A champion Fiorentina, La Liga champion Real Madrid, Bundesliga runner-up Leverkusen and Premier League giant Liverpool, these four clubs from the four major leagues were "inadvertently" assigned to the same group!

When the grouping situation in Florence was announced on the big screen, Zhuang Mingge almost cursed in the venue:

"I'll just go! Platini, you're too much! You're trying to trouble us Florence again and again! If I don't show off your power, you really think Florence is a soft persimmon that's easy to pinch!"

Being targeted by time travelers, can Platini still take advantage of the successful World Cup in history to rise to the top and ascend to the UEFA President?
Chapter completed!
