Chapter 2013: Manchester United entered the death group in the Champions League, and Ye Chen once ag

On August 8, the UEFA Champions League group stage draw and UEFA European Player of the Year awards ceremony were held at the Grimaldi Forum in Monte Carlo.

This award ceremony feels a bit like dividing pork...

Last season, the most successful team was undoubtedly Manchester United. They won five major championships when everyone thought it was impossible!

But Real Madrid played equally well, so that neutralized it a bit...

The first award to be announced was the UEFA President's Award, and the winner was Totti.

Next was the award for the best goalkeeper of last season's Champions League, and the winner was De Gea.

Ramos won the Champions League Best Defender Award last season.

Modric won the Champions League Best Midfielder Award last season.

C Ronaldo won the best striker in the Champions League last season.

Ye Chen once again won the Player of the Year award.

Last season, Ronaldo played his best season, but unfortunately he lost to Ye Chen in both finals.

Now that he has joined forces with Ye Chen, the entire football world is looking forward to them opening a new chapter.

Because Manchester United won the Champions League, the order of the previous life was disrupted.

Therefore, this year's Champions League grouping has undergone tremendous changes compared to previous years.

A total of 32 teams advanced to the group stage and were drawn into eight groups according to the four tiers, with each group including one team from each of the four tiers.

The newly awarded Roman Prince Totti and Ukrainian "nuclear warhead" Shevchenko served as guests for the draw.

Ye Chen, C Ronaldo, De Gea and Modric sat together, talking and laughing.

But when the groups were drawn, several people had complicated expressions.

Because Manchester United is the Champions League champion, it is naturally a top-tier team.

Manchester United is in Group A and their luck is not as good as last year.

The three opponents are Sevilla from La Liga, Roma from Serie A and Sporting Lisbon from the Portuguese Super League.

There is no need to say much about Sevilla, Ye Chen's old club, which, under the leadership of Klopp, has now become a top team in La Liga.

Roma is also a strong team in Serie A.

As for Sporting Lisbon, also known as Sporting CP, this is Ronaldo's home team.

In other words, this season Ye Chen and C Ronaldo will meet their former clubs...

To be honest, this arrangement made Ye Chen suspect that UEFA did it on purpose.

As the draw was over, Ye Chen was caught by the media when he was leaving the venue.

Let him give a speech to express his gratitude for the award and at the same time, ask him whether he thinks it is unfair for the official to give the top scorer award to Ronaldo.

Ye Chen was very calm about this. "Last season, both Ronaldo and I played very well, so there is no problem in giving him the top scorer award. This is also the reason why I teamed up with Ronaldo! In the new season, Ronaldo and I have the same goal and will strive for all championships!"

“Although I have won it many times, I am still very excited to win it again... Thank you for the recognition from the organizing committee! In the new season, I will continue the outstanding performance of last season..."

"Yes, I still hope to win all the championships, but if I don't, I won't be disappointed... From the very beginning, I told myself that as long as we tried our best, we will have a clear conscience."

"The Premier League schedule is very tight and we can't play all the games, but even if we rest, this Manchester United team has enough strength to cope with the game. I have 100% confidence in my teammates!"

Although Manchester United won five titles last season, they still have a desire for the championship.

After the award ceremony, the players and coaches returned to the club.

However, Ancelotti did not attend the awards ceremony this time due to some personal matters...

Of course, these are harmless.

Their next game is the third round of the league, where they will host Leicester City at home.

Leicester City got into shape quickly in the new season.

In the first game against Arsenal, we played offensive football. Although we lost the game 3-4, the team showed a good mental outlook.

In the second home game against Brighton, they defeated their opponent 2-0.

Because of Shinji Okazaki's team, the Japanese media continued to hype the term "Asian Derby".

Unfortunately, China's media is no longer worthy of their hype.

In the words of countless fans - what kind of rotten fish and shrimp is Okazaki Shinji? How could he be worthy of touching Ye Chen?

But this team should not be underestimated.

Mahrez in the team is what Ye Chen wants very much. In addition, Schmeichel Jr. is also the son of Manchester United legend Schmeichel, so they have a very close relationship.

Of course, the outside world does not think that this Leicester City team can stop the powerful Manchester United.

With this schedule, Manchester United is expected to have a winning streak at the beginning of the season!

As the transfer window deadline is getting closer, clubs are seizing the opportunity to buy players frantically.

The famous transfer expert Romano has already shouted "Here We Go", countdown to Messi joining Manchester City!

Chelsea continued to strengthen their team and directly brought Morata, who has both weak feet, to Chelsea for 6500 million euros.

Buying Lukaku and Morata, what does Chelsea want to do?

However, Chelsea is also very strong in the new season. After all, they beat Tottenham 2-1 away from home in the last game, and Lukaku's header assist played a key role.

The third round of competition has officially begun.

Manchester City took the lead and beat Bournemouth 2-1 away from home.

B Silva, who transferred from Sevilla, and Wang Chu actually passed the ball and shot at each other.

This made many media exclaim that there was a special understanding between them.

Next up is Manchester United's match against Leicester City.

After the renovation, Manchester United had 6,000 more tickets, but 80,000 was still not enough.

Especially since Cristiano Ronaldo returned home, the popularity has remained high.

Various analyses and predictions before the game were all advocating Leicester City.

But what they said was - Leicester City couldn't possibly not score a goal, Manchester United's defense was not solid; Leicester City couldn't possibly lose more than three goals, their defense was pretty good...

But there is not much data to support such advocacy.

Let me put it this way, they lost three goals in the first round.

Before the game, Ye Chen, Ronaldo, Modric and De Gea appeared in front of the crowd with the trophy.

In addition to the UEFA Best Player trophy, Ye Chen also has a European Golden Boot trophy.

Glittering under the lights of the scene...

Ronaldo next to him had a look in his eyes.

When can I win the European Golden Boot again?

But there is always a chance!

At 12: am local time, the matchup that countless fans have been looking forward to officially arrived.

"Migu Sports, Migu Sports!"

"Everyone is welcome to stay with us late at night to watch the third round of the 2017-2018 season, with Manchester United at the top and Leicester City at the bottom!"

"Before this game, Jones returned to Blackburn for 0 transfer fee, and head coach Ancelotti said that the team will not add or sell any more players!"

"The Foxes have also made reinforcements in several key positions this year. They introduced Manchester City's prince Iheanacho to the forward line for 2770 million euros. Sporting CP's midfielder Adrien Silva also joined for 2050 million euros. In addition, there are also players such as Ivora and Jakupovic!"

"Manchester United has brought in Cristiano Ronaldo..."

After analyzing a series of transfers and past performances, Zhan Jun changed the subject and said, "Okay, without further ado, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams!"

Ps: Last night we won, England 1-1 (extra time not included), Spain won by a large margin! Let's continue today, optimistic about France winning the game in regular time, 10, 20, expect 1-1; optimistic about Portugal by a large margin, 20/30, expect 21, 31, it depends on whether Portugal lets the opponent score!
