Chapter 262 Lottery Results
Following everyone's gaze, Mourinho also saw Li Yi not far away.
At this time, Li Yi also found his own position, and next to him, Li Yi also met old acquaintances, AC Milan coach Ancelotti, Inter Milan coach Mancini, and Juventus coach Capello.
Li Yi and Capello's relationship is average. In the final analysis, Roma's failure to break into the top four last season was largely due to Li Yi. If it wasn't for that conflict, Capello's life would not be so sad. Besides, Capello is a figure from the previous generation.
Ancelotti and Mancini are rising stars, especially Ancelotti. Although he was overtaken by Cagliari last season, he is still the face of the new generation of Italy.
Of course, Ancelotti and Li Yi had the best relationship. Although Li Yi won the championship that belonged to Ancelotti last season, it didn't affect the relationship between Ancelotti and Li Yi. As for Mancini, he and Li Yi were sympathetic.
"Bruce, I went to China this summer," Ancelotti said.
"When? Why didn't you notify me?" Li Yi invited Ancelotti to go to the foodie country during the last meal, but Ancelotti actually went.
"Notify you? Bruce, do you think if I show up with you, then I can still have a happy vacation?" Ancelotti actually thought about finding Li Yi, but when he found that both TV and newspapers were reporting about Li Yi, he wisely chose to give up this idea.
After a brief exchange, Li Yi greeted Mancini and Capello. He could chat with Mancini, but with Capello, it was really just a greeting.
Italian coaches can communicate easily and freely, but this is certainly not the case in other leagues, such as Real Madrid and Barcelona. Even if the two coaches sit together, they will not have much communication.
On the other hand, the Premier League is similar. Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal are sworn enemies, especially Arsenal. In the past few years, the Premier League was dominated by Manchester United and Arsenal.
Last season can be said to be the pinnacle of Arsenal. Arsene Wenger's team won the Premier League title with an undefeated season. However, this situation will be completely broken from this year. The ability of the madman, coupled with the gold dollar of the Russian oligarchs, the Premier League structure ushered in a new change, and Chelsea is even stronger.
As for the veteran team Liverpool, the arrival of Benitez has indeed brought new vitality to Liverpool. The traditional semi-finals of the Premier League will be fully formed this season.
The Bundesliga and Ligue [-] don’t attract much attention. It is an indisputable fact that Ligue [-] is weak. The Bundesliga is dominated by Bayern Munich. Coupled with the strictness of the Germans, the transfer market of the Bundesliga has always been the least interesting.
For the remaining leagues, after the Bosman Act, the Eredivisie has completely lost its former glory. Although the Portuguese Super League had the defending champion last season, Porto has completely become a transfer supermarket this summer, and many core players in the team have left.
There are not only the head coach, but also the players in the conference hall. Although today is the day of the European group draw, it is also the day of awarding.
But these have nothing to do with Li Yi, after all, no one from his team was selected, so during this period, Li Yi has been just a spectator.
The Champions League has the so-called first pot and second pot, and Cagliari is undoubtedly assigned to the fourth pot, because this is the first time Cagliari has participated in the Champions League in more than 30 years.
After the awarding ceremony, the European group draw officially kicked off. Coincidentally, the guest of this year's draw was actually the future UEFA president, French star Michel Platini.
Platini was the greatest French star before Zidane and the future president of UEFA, but according to Li Yi, this guy is not a good bird.
Of course, this Frenchman has nothing to do with Li Yi. Anyway, he is not the UEFA president yet. Even if he is elected in the future, Platini is black, but he doesn't dare to go too far. After all, so many people in the world are staring at the UEFA Champions League.
For this lottery, Li Yi is still looking forward to it, because Cagliari is very likely to draw a strong team because of the fourth tier, but Li Yi is not worried, and even has some expectations in his heart.
Soon, the first grade appeared, namely Deportivo in Group A, Real Madrid in Group B, Bayern Munich in Group C, Manchester United in Group D, Arsenal in Group E, Barcelona in Group F, Valencia in Group G and Porto in Group H.
The second tier is Liverpool, Bayer Leverkusen, Lyon, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Chelsea and Panathinaikos.
The "luck" of the three Serie A teams does not seem to be very good. AC Milan and Barcelona are in the same group, Inter Milan and Valencia are in the same group, and Juventus is in Group C, with Bayern Munich.
As for the third tier, they are basically teams that are not from the five major leagues. As far as Li Yi is concerned, he only cares about which group his team is in.
"Why do I think it's not good for us to go to that group?" Salerno couldn't help complaining when the bridge came to the fourth grade.
It is said that since the group draw, the director of the club has been muttering, or praying, praying that Cagliari can be drawn to a weak group.
But judging from the current situation, none of the eight groups seemed particularly weak, so Salerno complained to Li Yi.
"Nicolas, you have to have confidence in yourself, even if you don't, then you should have confidence in me." Li Yi rolled his eyes and said.
In fact, Li Yi also secretly analyzed these eight groups, but judging from the current situation, the strength of Arsenal in Group E is relatively weak. The two teams behind Arsenal are Panathinaikos and Eindhoven.
But in fact, Li Yi's analysis is useless, because he can't decide such things as the lottery. Luck is one thing, UEFA is another.
"Cagliari" Soon, the Cagliari lottery was drawn.
Group B.
It is still Serie A and La Liga. It is said that Serie A and La Liga have really competed over the years. Before the rise of the Premier League, La Liga was definitely the strongest blocker in Serie A.
Barcelona and AC Milan in Group F, Valencia and Inter Milan in Group G, and now Real Madrid and Cagliari.
Group B, Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, Dynamo Kiev and Cagliari.
And with the results of the draw, almost everyone's eyes once again focused on Cagliari. The strongest dark horse in Serie A will face the strongest European team and the best team of the last century.
And in faraway Italy, when Cagliari was drawn to Group B, the Cagliari players all focused their attention on the veteran Hierro.
