The Millwall trio flew to Nyon, Switzerland, and talked about the Champions League quarterfinal draw halfway. Wilkinson thought the prospect was a bit pessimistic, "I have some gossip."

"I have talked to several FA officials. They all say that in every year's Champions League, some games are destined, and the attractiveness of the game must be considered and commercial sponsorship must be considered."

"So there will definitely be a focus battle every year, and most of them are competitions between Nike and Adidas."

"There is news that we will draw strong teams, either Serie A or La Liga. In addition, UEFA hopes to allow offensive giants to take the lead to strengthen the attractiveness of the Champions League."

"The Premier League has performed too well in the past two years and won the championship for two consecutive years, so several teams will be suppressed."

“…”

Wilkinson said a lot along the way, most of which were rumored. As a person with a lot of contact with English football, he still had a lot of sources of information. Some of the contents are recognized, but certainly, most of the news is meaningless because there are many conflicts in it. However, no matter what, Zhang Yang and Wise both agreed that "the lottery has insider information", which is well known to all European clubs.

No one will point it out.

First, there is no evidence, and second, UEFA organizes the Champions League. The higher the business attractiveness, the more bonus the teams participating in each team can get. Even if some signing positions are operated internally, it will be beneficial to each team as a whole.

In addition, drawing lots is not important, what is important is the strength of each team.

If you have strong strength and excellent performance, you can win no matter what team you encounter, and it doesn't matter if you draw a lottery in one lottery.

Zhang Yang doesn't care much.

It's really too complicated to think about these things when he goes to the lottery. He is just a head coach and plays against any opponent he meets. The only thing he can do is this. As for whether there is any insider, he has little to do with Mirwall.

The overall Premier League is suppressed, at most it will encounter strong teams.

That's all.

Of course, Zhang Yang still hopes to meet weak teams. After all, weak teams will be better at defeating. After the group stage, a total of sixteen teams in eight groups will advance to the knockout stage. The principle of drawing lots is that eight first-ranked teams in the group stage will be used as seeds to determine the match with eight second-ranked teams through draws. Among them, the teams that have confronted the group stage will avoid the draw in the draw, and club teams from the same country will also avoid the draw in the draw.

Mirwall may encounter opponents: Porto, Celtics, Eindhoven, Lille, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Inter Milan.

Among them, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Inter Milan are all the strong teams in the second place in the group, and the other four teams are much easier to deal with. Even if the Premier League teams are really suppressed, the four Premier League teams, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Millwall, cannot all encounter strong teams. Millwall has a great chance of meeting weak teams.

After arriving at the lottery site, the Millwall trio immediately attracted a lot of attention.

When participating in the Champions League group draw, few people took Millwall seriously. One was the first time Millwall trio participated in the Champions League draw. Here they were definitely newcomers, and there were not many familiar people at all. The other was Millwall not favored.

The situation is different now.

In the group D of the Champions League group stage, Millwall won the first place in the group with a crushing result, which was no worse than Manchester United and Chelsea in the same league. In addition, Millwall is still ranked first in the Premier League, which also made more people face Millwall. They know that this is not a "meteor-like" team, and good results can at least last until this season.

Many reporters gathered around for interviews.

Zhang Yang smiled slightly at the reporters. When talking about the draw, he said in a low-key manner, "This is Mirwall's first time participating in the Champions League. We came with a learning attitude, so it doesn't matter what opponent we meet. I hope to meet a strong team and even if we lose the game, we will learn more experience."

“…”

Each reporter almost revealed friendly words that started with ‘f’, especially those reporters who interviewed Zhang Yang, who knew that the young people in front of him were simply fooling others!

Is Millwall for learning experience?

If we really aim to learn experience, how could the group stage be so strong!

Hope to meet a strong team?

I guess no head coach would say this. Even the coaches of the top giants would hope to meet weaker opponents, and any team would hope to advance to the quarterfinals easier.

Media reporters have no choice.

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he didn't give them a chance to ask questions, so he walked into the venue with Wise and Wilkinson.

There are already many people in the venue.

Mourinho's Chelsea team had just entered the venue. Zhang Yang and Mourinho met. The two looked at each other and seemed to feel that they were a little embarrassed to be dissatisfied without saying anything.

Zhang Yang nodded at Mourinho and was about to walk away. Unexpectedly, Mourinho really spoke, "I hope Mirwall can have good luck and draw a good opponent."

Zhang Yang replied with a smile, "Of course, I hope you have good luck."

The two of them said only one irrelevant sentence, and then snorted and left separately.

Zhang Yang glanced at the venue and there were many familiar faces, but found that either they were unfriendly "enemy" or all kinds of disdainful eyes. In short, most of them were not very friendly.

Many people say that "people who walk together are enemies", and it is vividly reflected in the venue. The head coach and the head coach have a direct competitive relationship, and it is indeed difficult to have any mutual friendship.

That is, Wenger is pretty good.

Zhang Yang found the Frenchman's place, greeted the other party, and then walked straight over.

Zhang Yang and Wenger have always had a good relationship. Even if Millwall plays with Arsenal, the two sides are only a competitive competition and will not involve personal relationships.

In the entire European football world, Wenger is the one who gets along well with Zhang Yang. Others such as Redknapp and Hart, who either coach in the low-level league or retire.

Thinking of this, it’s really Feng Xiaoxiaoxi…it’s a little cold!

After almost the same time, a beautiful host walked out of the stage of the venue, and the lottery ceremony officially began when the announcement was announced.

The draw of the Champions League quarterfinals is not as good as the draw of the Champions League group draw, and there is no need to award so many awards. The host went on stage to talk and gave some introductions, and then invited the guests to draw the lottery officially.

The draw of the Champions League quarterfinals was randomly performed. The first team name was drawn, and then displayed to the audience. Then, the team was drawn from a new box and may encounter the team.

The first person to be drawn was A Milan, and their opponent was Celtic. When the name of "Celtic" was revealed, many people at the venue called A Milan for good luck.

In the Champions League quarterfinals, the Celtics can only be considered a weak team.

Next is Bayern, their opponent is Lille.

“Milwall…?”

Hearing the shouts of the host on the stage, many cameras pointed at Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang waved around with a smile and looked at him seriously. Then a name was displayed in his hands by the guest, "real-adrid (Real Madrid)?"

Real Madrid?

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, his face was a little bad.

Real Madrid!

Among the second-tier teams in the group, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Mirvoor are the most powerful teams. Any seed team in the group will not want to encounter these three teams.

Real Madrid is definitely not easy to deal with!

With the rise of Barcelona in recent years, Real Madrid's annual superstar strategy has failed. They were suppressed by Barcelona in the league. The Champions League performance has not been very good in the past two seasons, but anyone must admit that Real Madrid is one of the most difficult teams to deal with because they have enough stars and are still considered to be the team with the strongest lineup. There are very few teams that can be compared.

Is Real Madrid hit by Mirwall?

There is insider information!

Zhang Yang doesn’t know if there is any insider. Logically speaking, it’s not surprising that Mirwall draws Real Madrid, but when things really happen, it’s not the insider that will think it’s the insider.

Could it be that UEFA deliberately suppresses Premier League teams?

Millwall is so popular?

Zhang Yang felt awkward no matter how he thought about it, and he felt uncomfortable with bad luck. When he saw Chelsea encounter Porto and Arsenal encounter Eindhoven, he felt even worse.

Other teams draw weak teams, but Mirwall draws strong teams.

Even if he is in a bad mood, a head coach can still do nothing in front of the UEFA behemoth. Really... can't do anything?

When he saw the next name revealed was Manchester United, Zhang Yang suddenly remembered his magical powers - gambling.

In addition to Manchester United, there are only six teams left, and the chances of pairing up to one-third.

Gambling is ready to be used.

Zhang Yang suddenly remembered what Wilkinson said, "UEFA hopes to bring offensive style giants to the top!"

Then let Barcelona meet Manchester United?

Zhang Yang smiled slightly.

When the guests were drawing lots, Zhang Yang suddenly used his gambling ability. A mysterious power immediately reflected on the guests' hands. When the guests showed their names to the audience, the host immediately shouted his name, "Inter Milan!"

"Inter Milan?"

“Inter Milan??”

“Hula…”

There was a noise in the venue. For a long time, no one could hear what was being said in the distance. An official immediately reminded the host with his eyes. The host was stunned for a long time and was a little confused. He turned his head to look at the big screen before he noticed that he had made a mistake. She immediately corrected, "Oh, sorry, it's Barcelona!" The expression was no longer as calm as before, but became nervous, with a puzzled expression.

Only a very small number of people will foolishly think that the host has made a small mistake.

Most people will immediately think of the problem: Inter Milan? Barcelona? The names of the two clubs almost do not even have the same letters. What kind of mistakes can make such a big mistake?
