Chapter 355 Group of Death
In the end, Werder Bremen, as the fourth tier team, and the defending champion Porto in the first tier, Barcelona in the second tier, and Celtic in the third tier were assigned to the same group - Group F.

Right after the draw ceremony, Rongguang received a call from Ronaldinho.

"It's great, Rong! We have the opportunity to confront each other on the court!" Ronaldinho said happily on the phone.

Rong Guang was also very happy, he said with full of fighting spirit: "This time, I will definitely defeat you!"

"Haha, let's fight!" Ronaldinho laughed. "Don't cry if you lose!"

Rong Guang pouted: "I'm not Kaka..."

Hearing what he said, Ronaldinho laughed even louder.

"If he hears your words, he will definitely protest!"

"Protest? Protest? Am I still afraid of him? Humph!" Facing Kaka, Rong Guang always appears tough.

So in Milan, Italy, someone sneezed twice in a row...

"Honey, do you have a cold?" Caroline, who came to accompany him on vacation, turned her head to look at Kaka, who was sitting on the sofa watching the live broadcast of the lottery, and asked with concern.

Kaka shook her head quickly: "No, no."

He was also wondering... Okay, why did he suddenly sneezed twice in a row?

※※※

There are not only a few people who watch the live broadcast of the lottery in front of the TV.

Iniesta and Xavi watched the live broadcast together.

When the guests drew the lottery and the last team in Group F was Werder Bremen, Iniesta clenched his fists: "Beautiful!"

He said.

Xavi next to him said: "But you need to strive to be the main player in the team first, otherwise when we play against Werder Bremen, what a pity you won't be able to play?"

Iniesta nodded vigorously: "Yes, I will seize the opportunity!"

Then he couldn't help but said: "At that time, I must exchange jerseys with him, even if I can't play!"

"If you can't even enter the 18-man squad, I'll help you get it." Harvey joked Iniesta.

Iniesta waved his hand: "Go! You can definitely enter the 18-man squad!"

Harvey laughed.

Rong Guang didn't know that there were still people looking forward to meeting him in far away Spain.

Just as he put down the phone with Ronaldinho, Deborah's phone rang again.

Deborah picked it up and listened for a while, then handed the phone to Rong Guang: "Mo called, she wants to hear your opinion on this group."

Rong Guang's mobile phone: "Hello, Ms. Molly?"

"Ah, it's glory. I just want to hear what you think of this group situation... You seem to have been assigned to a death group. I don't know if you have the confidence to qualify from this group..."

Rong Guang asked, "What does the group of death mean?"

"It's a group full of strong teams..." Molly has been in contact with Rong Guang for a long time, and she also knows that this star actually doesn't know as much about football as a fake fan... So she didn't make a fuss when Rong Guang asked such a question, but patiently explained.

After hearing Molly's explanation, Rong Guang let out a sigh.

But then he asked another question: "Are they strong?"

Molly felt that it was not she who was interviewing Rong Guang, but Rong Guang who was interviewing him.

"Porto has always been a traditional giant in Portugal, and they were the champions of the Champions League last season. Their strength should not be underestimated. Barcelona is a traditional European giant and is well-known all over the world. The Celtics are also long-term champions in the Scottish league." Molly explained again.

"I think it's not worthwhile to play in the UEFA Champions League after all the effort." Rong Guang said, expressing his attitude.

Molly got it.

Rong Guang is about to enter the knockout stage!

It's not easy to get out of the group of death...

But Rong Guang's words...maybe it can be done.

※※※

On the second day of European football, everyone was discussing the results of the group draw.

Everyone thinks that Werder Bremen have been assigned to a group of death.

The head coach of Werder Bremen Schaff said in an interview with reporters after the draw: "The death group? That's what your reporter said, but I didn't say that. Werder Bremen didn't come to the Champions League for a day trip."

The German media analyzed the prospects of the three German teams entering the group stage.

Bayern Munich are the favourites, drawn in a group with Juventus, Ajax and Macca Tel Aviv.It can be said that there is basically no team in this group that can threaten Bayern Munich's prospects. At most, it is the difference between the first and second in the group.

Leverkusen is the second best team in the group stage.They were drawn with Real Madrid, Roma and Dynamo Kiev.The most threatening thing is Real Madrid. Compared with Rome and Leverkusen, it is hard to say who is stronger. Dynamo Kiev is defaulted to give away points.

Werder Bremen is the most dangerous of the three teams to qualify.

The so-called "group of death" does not mean that Werder Bremen must have no chance of qualifying, but that the strengths of the several teams are very close. Everyone has a chance, and no one has a chance. The situation is very chaotic.

Porto is the defending champion, but this summer, they left many of the main players who won the Champions League last season, and also left the most important coach Mourinho.

So Porto's strength must have declined.

But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, no matter how low it is, as the defending champion, it still has strength, so it won't be difficult for it to qualify for the group stage, right?
Barcelona played very well in the second half of last season, Rijkaard finally kneaded the team into shape.If anyone in this group is the safest, it must be Barcelona.But football is round. In this group, Barcelona dare not say that they are sure to qualify.

Not to mention the Celtics, they are the giants of the Scottish Super League and have participated in the Champions League for a long time. They have a very strong combat effectiveness at their home court.

Werder Bremen and these three teams are in a group, and it is really not easy to qualify.

"Werder Bremen's luck is really bad. After finally participating in the UEFA Champions League, we ran into the group of death... Judging from the betting company's group qualifying odds, the most promising group qualifying is Barcelona. What they want to strive for is to appear first in the group. The odds of the defending champion Porto are better than Werder Bremen, and the odds of Werder Bremen appearing are comparable to Celtic..."

The focus of Chinese media reports is almost all on Rong Guang.

This is the first time in Rongguang's career to participate in the Champions League.

At the same time, it is also No.1 among Chinese players to participate in the Champions League!
This is something that deserves a special mention.

So as soon as the results of the UEFA Champions League draw came out, the Chinese media reported on it.

Of course, although they have confidence in Rongguang, they are still not optimistic about the grouping situation of Werder Bremen.

Without him, the European media said that this is the group of death, so it must be the group of death!

"...It would be great if it was Barcelona in the first half of last season. I definitely don't think they are the favorites!"

Barcelona played poorly in the first half of last season.

If it is Barcelona in this time period, Werder Bremen is really not afraid of them.

But now...

During the winter break of last season, they loaned veteran "Wild Boar" Davis from Juventus. The team's waist has stood up, the defensive problem has been solved, and the results have improved.In the end, they won consecutive victories, directly chasing Real Madrid to the collapse, and counterattacked to get the second place in the league. However, Real Madrid, which was originally the number one in the league, suffered a five-game losing streak due to lack of physical strength.

It took Rijkaard a season to finally turn Barcelona into what he wanted it to be.

The Chinese media began to analyze what to do if Werder Bremen were to qualify from the death group.

Against Barcelona, ​​it would be best to get a draw at home.

Then there is the contest with the Celtics and Porto.

If they can win the games against Porto and Celtic, it will be beneficial for them to appear.

But the Celtics have a hard time playing at home.

Although Porto has left many people, it is the defending champion after all.And they also have talented Portuguese players like Quaresma in the lineup.

After analysis and analysis, it is difficult for Rongguang to play more Champions League games.

The biggest feature of the death group is uncertainty. No one can guarantee that they will definitely win, and they will definitely qualify from the group.

The Chinese media don't even have the guts to do so.

The European media have said that this is the group of death. They are not optimistic about Werder Bremen. Do the Chinese media dare to disagree?
In a gloomy atmosphere, Molly revealed that she called Rong Guang as soon as the lottery results came out, to hear his opinion on this group.

"Rong Guang said that he is participating in the Champions League for the first time, and he doesn't want to go home after finishing the group stage. His answer is almost the same as Schaf's statement. The generals are united. I think we can give Werder Bremen a little more expectation this season..."

Molly has a relatively close relationship with Rongguang and Rongguang's agent Deborah, and everyone already knows this—Molly always emphasizes this point intentionally or unintentionally when writing manuscripts—so it's not surprising that she can get Rongguang's comments, and no one doubts the authenticity of her words.

But everyone still didn't think that Rong Guang said he was confident, and Werder Bremen would definitely be able to break out of the death group.

It's very simple, a football game is a sport for 11 people, not a single person has the final say.No matter how confident Rong Guang is, his teammates can't do anything if they don't.

Moreover, football matches are not won by those who say they are good.

In that way, everyone just talks about it before the game, and whoever speaks hype and shows his "perfect tongue" will win.

In short, all Chinese fans and the media were looking forward to the Chinese players' first trip to the Champions League, but because of the result of the group draw, many people felt that they had been thrown a basin of cold water.

Or cold water with ice cubes...

"The domestic media doesn't seem to be optimistic about the prospects of Werder Bremen, Rong Guang." When calling Rong Guang for an interview, Molly relayed the domestic media's views on the results of this group.

Rong Guang didn't care what the media thought, so he didn't answer Molly's mention by the way.

He just said to Molly: "The interview... after the second Champions League game is over, I will tell you about my feelings about participating in the Champions League."

Molly was okay with the date, but she still wondered: "Why the second and not the first? Isn't the first more memorable?"

Rong Guang smiled without saying a word.

Seeing that Rong Guang didn't answer, Molly knew that Rong Guang didn't want to talk, so don't ask.

She nodded: "Okay, then I will contact you then."

After hanging up the phone, Deborah also asked Rong Guang curiously: "Why not after the first game, but the second?"

Rong Guang didn't smile this time.He said to Deborah: "Because it was after the game against Barcelona. I think it might be better to talk about my impressions of the Champions League after the game against Barcelona."
