Everyone at Atletico Madrid, including club president Cerezo, was in the club's meeting room.

Looking nervously at the TV screen, this will determine Atletico Madrid's future fate to a certain extent.

Europa football has ushered in the most important moment of the first half of the year: the quarter-final draw of the Champions League.

The draw ceremony was held in Nyon, Switzerland, the UEFA headquarters. Due to changes in the security situation, the draw was conducted in a closed live broadcast.

The draw was presided over by UEFA Secretary General Infantino, with Butragueno, Finals Ambassador and Real Madrid Public Relations Manager, as a guest.

The draw rules of the Champions League are relatively fair. During the draw process, two teams from the same country and one league will be placed in the same group in the 1/8 knockout rounds to ensure that each league has a chance to advance.

However, when drawing lots for the quarter-finals, the principle of "same country, same group avoidance" will no longer be considered, and lots will be drawn completely randomly.

Even the order of home and away games needs to be drawn. After all, this is related to the tactical preparation of each team.

The first group drawn is:

Arsenal vs Barcelona;

Defending champion Barcelona met Arsenal, their 2006 final opponent, and Cesc Fabregas faced his future club. Is this a reporting performance?

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was good news to avoid Barcelona. No one had the confidence to beat the Cosmos team consecutively.

The second group drawn is:

Bayern Munich vs Inter Milan;

They certainly didn’t expect that they would still win the lottery 12 years later!

Everyone in the club meeting room, like the fans in front of the TV, clenched their fists fiercely. Great, we avoided two strong teams again!

Next there are Manchester United, Atletico Madrid, Bordeaux, and the Moscow side. If Bordeaux is drawn, you can celebrate immediately.

It’s not that Bordeaux is weak, but that this is the best choice for Atletico Madrid!

The draw for the third group begins:

The first team drawn was Atletico Madrid, and everyone began to pray: Bordeaux, Bordeaux, Bordeaux...

Only Jurado was muttering to the side: No Manchester United, no Manchester United, no Manchester United...

However, when the second team was drawn, everyone was dumbfounded, the probability was 1/3!

Manchester United!

The third group of two sides:

Atletico Madrid vs Manchester United!

Suddenly, Atletico Madrid players and fans closed their eyes, gritted their teeth, raised their heads and sighed.

This is really bad luck.

There are only four teams left, and they have already avoided the previous four strong teams, but they actually directly drew Manchester United?

Manchester United's performance this season has been extremely stable. They are currently at the top of the standings and can be said to be the strongest team in the British Isles.

Lindy looked in disbelief, "What kind of luck is this?"

At the same time, he looked at Jurado with an evil look, but the other person was completely stunned: "Did I open my mouth?"

Aguero next to him was a little eager to try and looked excited.

Even De Gea was the same. The two actually hugged each other and celebrated.

Sometimes Lindy really wants to open the heads of these two fools and see what is inside.

Didn’t experts say that IQ cannot be transmitted through the air?

However, other players were not in such a good mood, and everyone was a little pessimistic.

What's Manchester United's place in the Premier League?

Three consecutive Premier League titles, the dominant one among the big6 so far!

In the history of the team, they have won a total of 18 league championship trophies!!

11 English FA Cup titles!

16 English Community Shield champions!

Won the Champions League three times!

The trophies are dazzling!

And their head coach is able to control the entire team, Sir Alex Ferguson, who is famous in world football.

Bordeaux, Moscow Zhuang L Jun, randomly pick one, Lindy is confident to hit the top four!

But now, seeing Atletico's defense full of injured soldiers, I'm afraid it's going to be quite difficult.

While the two idiots were still celebrating, Lindy couldn't stand it and gave De Gea a big blow: "Why are you excited about winning against Manchester United?"

De Gea didn't react at once: "Only by playing against strong teams can we show our strength, right?"

Aguero also didn't understand: "Beating Manchester United is equivalent to defeating the entire Premier League!"

Lindy immediately raised his forehead, Damn, who are these people?

Do you know what it means to be happy and healthy if you have Fatty Lu at home?

Do you know Brother Xiaosa?

Do you want to know the running distance of 2032 meters in a game?

Irving, the son of the wind, can only play as a substitute. Do you understand?

Please understand Nani, King of Heaven, forget it, you don’t need to understand.

Get to know the God of Death, Wa Jingyun-Wa Tianwang-Valencia, forget it, you don’t need to.

Let’s get to know the England star Welbeck. Forget it, he just got injured, so there’s no need to get to know him.

Eh? Why do you feel like there is one less person to introduce?

Just when he was about to let these two idiots understand what the terrifying Manchester United is, he heard someone next to him put his shoulder and asked: "That Manchester United Park Ji-sung seems to be from China, is this a derby?"

Lindy:???

God is so Chinese.

"That's from Han!" He turned to look at Periya who asked the question. Since the last time they chatted on the beach, the relationship between the two has improved a lot.

"There are still cold countries in Asia?? I only know about the Thai Demon Kingdom and the Huaxia Kingdom."

Looking at the serious Periya, Lindy was completely speechless, "Did your English teacher teach you geography?"

"Yes, there is only one teacher in our village."

Lindy didn't want to communicate with him about his nationality. Next time Periya's birthday was over, he would just give him a globe as a gift.

At this geographical level, it seems that it will be too difficult for Atletico Madrid to win the championship this year.

Flores looked at the two excited bastards and the slightly frustrated players with an indescribable feeling.

The championship, that is the Champions League championship, is the greatest honor for the club's head coach.

He turned to look at Cerezo, who looked solemn: "We will beat them at home, Mr. Chairman."

The latter did not speak, put away his solemn expression, and nodded slightly: "Of course, we are the best."

However, neither of them had any sparkle in their eyes, and each could see deep worry in the other's eyes.

But there was one person who didn't say a word from beginning to end, as if he was a spectator on the outside.

Looking at the excited duo, I also looked at the sad players.

Likewise, look at Flores and Cerezo.

…

The day after the lottery results came out, the five clubs were surrounded by reporters.

There are only a few reporters from Bordeaux, Moscow and Atletico Madrid.

In the former, there are few people because the media outlets are short of manpower.

The one in the middle has fewer people because the weather is too cold and the journey is too long.

After Real Madrid was eliminated, Atletico Madrid became the only team in the Madrid area that was not promoted by Real Madrid, so there were few people!

At this time, the media began to sing bad news, including "Maca" and "Ah Si".

The only thing you don't have to worry about is that Barcelona is placed in the bottom half.

Therefore, even if they successfully enter the final, they cannot use the home team's dressing room at the Bernabeu Stadium.

This should be the only good news for Real Madrid recently.

Flores naturally also accepted media interviews.

Unlike Ferguson who was cautious when he was tabooing Van Gaal, Flores said bluntly:

"Manchester United has many talented players, but Atletico Madrid's players only have sweat and hard work. I believe that sweat and results must match."
