061: We have obtained the qualifying spot in the group
The group draw results for the 2016-2017 UEFA Champions League have come out. Some are really happy and some are sad.
There are two groups that can be seen as the group of death at a glance, namely group c and group e.
In Group C, Barcelona, Leicester City, Monchengladbach and Celtic are very good teams. Barcelona are La Liga champions and Copa del Rey champions, so they are super strong; Lecs
City were a dark horse in the Premier League last season and finished second in the league; Borussia Monchengladbach finished fourth in the Bundesliga last season and were a dark horse; Celtic won the Scottish Premiership last season and even won the Scottish Premiership for five consecutive years.
He won the championship, his strength is impressive.
These teams are gathered in the same group, and it’s hard to say who will win and who will lose.
Even, in Webster's view, even Barcelona may not be able to qualify from this group.
Yes, Barcelona is very strong, everyone knows it. But the other teams in the same group are all likely to be upset. They are all likely to defeat Barcelona. It is impossible to say that Barcelona will really be eliminated in the group.
Of course, except for Barcelona, the probabilities of qualifying for the other three teams are almost the same.
Although you, Leicester City, are from the Premier League, you are just a dark horse. Apart from last season, you, Leicester City, really have nothing to say. And since the start of this season, your results have also been
No, it feels like a dark horse that has faded.
Therefore, Leicester City may not be as good as Monchengladbach and Celtic.
What's more important is that Celtic has won five consecutive Scottish Premiership titles, and they are very domineering. They are still very confident against teams like yours. They even won the UEFA Champions League in the history of the club. So, then
This was in 1967. Although it was a long time ago, their strength was indeed very strong.
Although Monchengladbach is a dark horse, their results in recent seasons are not too bad. Last season, Monchengladbach rose and qualified for the Europa League. Last season, they won the Bundesliga.
They qualified for the Champions League in third place, and last season they qualified for the Champions League in fourth place in the Bundesliga.
Having qualified for the European competition for many years in a row, this team is already considered a strong Bundesliga team.
Therefore, every opponent in this group can still be dealt with.
It is still unclear who will qualify?
The quality of this death group is very good, it can be called the first death group!
The situation in Group E is actually more fierce than that of Group C. Why? Because there are no particularly strong top teams in Group E, and even the first-tier teams are not worthy of entering the first-tier in the eyes of many media reporters and fans.
.
CSKA Moscow, a giant from the Russian Super League, enters the UEFA Champions League almost every year, but their performance in the Champions League is indeed disappointing. So far, they have only reached the top 8 of the Champions League once. However, they were the champions of the Russian Super League last season, and they had won the Europa League in the 2004 and 2005 seasons. Their experience is very rich. Among the first-level teams, they are indeed a lot behind.
So this group is actually the easiest group to qualify for death.
Then there is Bayer Leverkusen, which is one of the traditional strong teams in the Bundesliga. Its results in recent years have also been very stable. Last season, it ranked fourth in the Bundesliga and third in the Bundesliga last season. It is a strong team.
A very strong team. To be honest, in the eyes of many media reporters, Leverkusen looks more like a first-class team than CSKA Moscow.
Leverkusen is very strong and difficult to deal with.
Then Tottenham Hotspur is not bad either. They were the fourth team in the Premier League last season. If you think about it, they can compete with strong teams such as Crystal Palace, Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Leicester City.
They are ranked fourth in the league, which shows their strength. Tottenham Hotspur is a team that has beaten Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea. Do you think they are not strong?
This team is also more like a first-tier team than CSKA Moscow, but unfortunately Tottenham Hotspur is a third-tier team.
In the end, Monaco is not a weak team. Although they were third in Ligue 1 last season, in Tong Yi's memory, Monaco this season is very powerful. They have reached the Champions League.
He reached the semi-finals and finally lost to Juventus and missed the finals.
Of course, in Tong Yi's memory, Monaco achieved amazing results because of Mbappe's explosive performance.
In this world, Monaco no longer has Mbappe.
Mbappe is at Crystal Palace now.
However, even without Mbappe, Monaco is still favored by many media reporters. In their view, Monaco at least looks more like a first-class team than CSKA Moscow.
However, in the eyes of many people, the strengths of these teams are still almost the same.
This should be regarded as the most fiercely competitive group. This is a group of death in the true sense.
The reason why they are ranked second is because they are not the deadliest group because they do not have top-tier clubs and are slightly less famous.
But the competition in this group is even more intense than that of Group C.
These two groups of death are really very, very deadly.
Not entering these two groups is a good thing for Crystal Palace.
Apart from these two groups
In addition, there are also groups b and h, which are also known as the small groups of death.
In Group B, Benfica, Napoli, Dynamo Kiev and Besiktas are all together. Everyone thinks that these teams have the possibility of qualifying.
They have a certain strength, but they are not very strong. In the eyes of media reporters, these teams are in the first round and eliminated by other teams.
However, this is definitely a death group.
Group H is similar, with Juventus, Sevilla, Lyon and Dinamo Zagreb. Among them, the Croatian giant Dinamo Zagreb is almost interesting. But in the eyes of many media reporters, this Croatian giant
It really has the potential to become a dark horse. It is impossible to say that Juventus, Sevilla and Lyon will suffer from them.
The competition in this group is also very fierce.
The teams in these groups must be very worried. The other groups are much more relaxed, especially the Crystal Palace group.
After the results of this group came out, almost all media claimed that the Crystal Palace group was the easiest group in the Champions League this season, and almost no one could stop Crystal Palace from advancing.
Porto, Bruges, Copenhagen and Crystal Palace are really a lot different.
Even if Crystal Palace's strength has declined this season, these teams still cannot stop Crystal Palace.
Webster said that Crystal Palace's promotion is certain. This is not because they look down on other teams in this group, but because they are very confident in Tong Yi's strength.
Crystal Palace must reach the last 16 of this season's UEFA Champions League.
Even Nuno Santo, the head coach of Porto in the same group, said in an interview with media reporters, "This is a good group for Crystal Palace, and it is a good group for us and the other two teams."
That's not the case. Because we can only compete for another place, and one of the promotion places already belongs to Crystal Palace."
You want to know that Santo is not a nobody.
When he was a player, he played for the Portuguese giant Porto. After retiring, he became a coach. In 2014, he became the head coach of Valencia and led the team to the Champions League. He still has the ability and is pretty good.
of the head coach.
This summer he returned to Porto and took over the team.
Therefore, what he said is very convincing, and it also proves that he recognizes the strength of Crystal Palace.
Michel Predholm, the head coach of the Belgian giants, also said, "Crystal Palace in our group is indeed very strong, and their abilities are really much better than our other teams. Of course, I think we
Against them, we have the strength to fight and have a chance to win. . But if you want to talk about who can qualify from this group, I think it must be Crystal Palace. Their strength is really too strong, after all, they are the defending champions!"
There is still some respect that should be given to the defending champion. The Belgian star is obviously very optimistic about Crystal Palace.
Norwegian Staller Solbakken, the head coach of the Danish giant Copenhagen, also accepted interviews with media reporters. He said, "I think our group has decided on a promotion spot, and the winner will naturally be from the Premier League.
Crystal Palace, they are the defending champions of the UEFA Champions League this season, and there is no doubt about their strength. I think our other three teams can only compete for another spot."
Solbakken is a super celebrity in Copenhagen, the legendary godfather of their club!
As a player, he was a member of the Norwegian national team and participated in the 1998 World Cup and the 2000 European Cup. After retiring, he became a professional coach. In 2006, he became the head coach of Copenhagen, and then continued until 2011.
He brought the team 5 Danish Super League championships and 1 Danish Cup championship.
In 2011, he left Copenhagen and went to Cologne and Wolves, both of which were unsuccessful. After 2013, he returned to Copenhagen, and that season he led the team to win the Danish Super League championship. Last season,
He also led the team to win the Danish Superliga championship.
It can be said that Solbakken is the glorious and legendary godfather of Copenhagen Club.
You have to know that Copenhagen Football Club has won a total of 11 championships in its history, and Solbakken has led the team to win 7 championships. You will know the weight of this guy.
Now that he said these words, they naturally carry a lot of weight.
Therefore, it is almost universally recognized in this group that Crystal Palace will get a promotion spot.
Tong Yi himself was also interviewed by media reporters. He said, "Indeed, as everyone thought, this group is indeed a very, very good group for us at Crystal Palace. We have won the lottery. I
I also agree with what everyone said that our Crystal Palace has already secured a promotion spot. This is not because I look down on other teams in our group, but because my players and I have this confidence."
This should be true, but why do the fans in Copenhagen, Porto and Bruges sound so harsh?
Of course, Tong Yi was not disappointed. He continued, "Although I am confident of getting a qualifying spot, it does not mean that we will underestimate our opponents. The qualifying spot is obtained by winning one game at a time, so
In every next game, we will go all out, and I will take every opponent of our Crystal Palace seriously. No matter who he is, we will go all out. So, I think we won a group
