As Real Madrid and Barcelona prepare for the 29th round of the 2013-2014 La Liga national derby, the draw for the quarter-finals of the 2013-2014 Champions League was held as scheduled at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

Compared with the Champions League group stage and the 1/8 final draw, the 1/4 final draw does not have any evasion rules, which means that the three La Liga teams that advance to the quarterfinals of this season's Champions League are likely to have a civil war.

One of the most anticipated draws is undoubtedly the Real Madrid vs Barcelona national derby and the Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid derby.

Of course, these two games are the most desirable outcomes for those neutral fans.

At 12 o'clock at noon on March 21, local time in Europe, the draw for the 2013-2014 Champions League quarterfinals was held in Nyon, Switzerland.

The first team to be drawn out was Barcelona, which immediately caused an uproar at the scene.

Immediately, the ambassador of the final drew Atletico Madrid again.

The faces of Barcelona officials and Atletico Madrid officials at the scene were dark at the same time, and it was obvious that this draw was difficult for them to accept.

The same was true for the Atletico Madrid players and Barcelona players sitting in front of the TV, but there were also those who were glad that they didn't draw the more difficult Real Madrid team.

Tang Zheng, who was sitting in front of the TV watching the live broadcast of the draw, breathed a sigh of relief, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid were drawn together, which also means that the pressure on the two teams in the Champions League will be greater and greater, and the attention of the league will be correspondingly reduced.

The draw ceremony continued, after all, Barcelona's draw against Atletico Madrid has become a fact, and the next six teams have not settled on the 1/4 final draw opponents, and must be carried out according to the process.

Next, it was Real Madrid who breathed a sigh of relief.

Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid were drawn, and now Real Madrid is drawn, which means that the remaining five teams are all possible.

Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, no matter which team they face, don't seem to be very easy to play.

However, the Champions League enters the quarterfinals, and it is the same for any team you play, and you have to do your best.

"Which team will be drawn?" Tang Zheng frowned, wandering among the five teams that might be drawn.

In fact, for Tang Zheng, it is the same for any team drawn, but he has a team in his heart that he is unwilling to touch.

That's right, it's Dortmund.

In the short time that Tang Zheng's fugue was too empty, the lottery guest Figo had already taken out a Champions League logo ball with the team's name from the draw column.

He opened it, his expression meaningful, and then flipped over the white note with the team's name on it and presented it in front of the television.

Yang 5 commentator Duan Huo's eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "Oh my God, Real Madrid drew Schalke 04 in the 1/8 finals, I didn't expect to draw Dortmund in the 1/4 finals, Tang Zheng will face the old boss Dortmund, and this game is also a direct confrontation between the teams in the Champions League finals last season." ”

Real Madrid official Alexis Sanchez's facial expression has not changed much, as long as he doesn't draw Atletico Madrid and Barcelona.

As for drawing Dortmund, it doesn't matter!

Anyway, Dortmund's most threatening Tang Zheng joined Real Madrid last summer, which is tantamount to saying that Dortmund is not justified.

Dortmund official Zorge looked very helpless, he thought of Dortmund meeting Real Madrid, but he didn't expect to meet in the Champions League quarterfinals.

Now this Dortmund team is no longer the Dortmund of its peak, and Dortmund's overall record has dropped significantly in the season that Tang Zheng left, especially in the Bundesliga.

Now that the Champions League 1/4 finals have drawn the powerful Real Madrid, it means that the road to the Champions League this season is very bumpy.

Although it is not said that Dortmund's Champions League road is over, at least the difficulty coefficient has reached the highest point.

It would be nice to say if Real Madrid didn't have Tang Zheng, but Real Madrid Zorke, who has Tang Zheng, knows best, and it's like a tiger with wings.

Tang Zheng, who was sitting in front of the TV, shook his head and smiled bitterly, the opponent he was most reluctant to meet was finally drawn.

In fact, as early as before the start of the Champions League 1/4 final draw ceremony, there was media speculation that the two sides of the Champions League final last season would be drawn together?

The UEFA draw has always been full of gimmicks, and aside from last season's Champions League final, Tang Zheng's return to Westphalen's Champions League knockout round is enough to attract attention and maximize the advertising benefits for the Champions League brand.

But then again, sooner or later, you have to face it.

There are some things that cannot be escaped.

The place where the dream begins, it is worth recalling.

※※※

Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund drew together worthy of in-depth discussion by the commentators on the spot, but there are still four teams that have not been drawn in the Champions League quarter-final draw ceremony, so UEFA Secretary-General Gianni Infantino and final ambassador Figo continue to draw for the Champions League quarter-finals, so that the remaining four teams can be successfully paired.

Tang Zheng had no interest in the detailed analysis of Thiago, the commentator of Spanish national television 5, he turned off the TV and prepared to go to the gym at the Valdebebas training base.

At that moment, his cell phone rang on the luxurious mahogany table, but he didn't pay much attention to it, after all, it was a very ordinary message tone.

After only five seconds, the phone rang continuously.

So Tang Zheng reluctantly picked up his mobile phone to look, it turned out that it was a 'condolence message' sent by Dortmund's teammates.

In Dortmund, the best relationship with Tang Zheng is undoubtedly Mats Hummels, so the text message sent was the most direct, he said: "I know your characteristics best, want to score goals and assists?

Tang Zheng shook his head and smiled, and replied casually: "I see your defensive flaws, waiting to become a backstabber!"

Yan Junling, who has become Dortmund's starting goalkeeper, sent a text message saying: "Brother Zheng, can you give some face? ”

Lewandowski's text message was the funniest, he said: "According to the old rules, can you lose half of surrender?"

Even Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp sent a text message: "This is a new era, I'm looking forward to the two Champions League quarter-finals, and we'll let you know that Dortmund is still strong." ”

……

Tang Zheng slowly read each text message, and then replied slowly.

The draw for the 2013-2014 Champions League quarter-finals was broadcast live on TV, with Paris Saint-Germain drawing Chelsea, which meant that the last two teams, Manchester United and Bayern Munich, were drawn together.

However, because the draw order of the Champions League 1/4 finals is related to the next home and away, the remaining two teams, Manchester United and Bayern Munich, will also have a draw, and whoever draws first will be home and away.

The team drawn first is Manchester United, which means that Bayern Munich will be away first and then home.

By the time Tang Zheng replied to all, the draw ceremony for the 2013-2014 Champions League 1/4 finals had ended, but Thiago, the commentator of Spanish National Television Channel 5, was still analyzing the draw for the Champions League 1/4 finals that had just ended.

After Tang Zheng replied to the text message, he turned off the TV, put the phone back in his trouser pocket, and then went to the gym to prepare for the afternoon training session.

The home league game against Barcelona is crucial and there can be no slack, even in the Champions League quarter-finals.

At the same time, CCTV 5 TV commentator Duan Huo is also explaining to Chinese fans in front of the TV the draw for this season's Champions League 1/4 finals, in addition to Paris Saint-Germain VS Chelsea, the other three games have key comments, especially the draw for Real Madrid to face Dortmund at home and away.

In addition to the relationship between the two teams in last season's Champions League final, Dortmund's meritorious player Tang Zheng joined Real Madrid last summer with a record transfer fee in world football, and there are enough topics, so the commentator Duan Huo and the commentator Xu Yang are talking endlessly.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said in a helpless tone, he said: "Dortmund this season in all competitions in addition to the German Cup, the league and the Champions League are not very ideal, the league is pressed behind Bayern Munich, the Champions League 1/8 finals only rely on the advantage of away goals to qualify for the Champions League quarterfinals, and now draw a strong Real Madrid, perhaps...... Their Champions League campaign this season will come to an early end......"

Although the Dortmund fans sitting in front of the TV looked a little helpless, they did not lose confidence in the team. Survive in the environment.

Of course, at this time, more Dortmund fans are beginning to look forward to Tang Zheng's homecoming.

※※※

The next day, in addition to the upcoming Spanish national derby, the European mainstream media broke out, and the draw for the quarter-finals of the 2013-2014 Champions League was held at UEFA headquarters in Nyon at noon yesterday.

Every game has a story to tell, especially the meeting between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.

However, the attention of the Real Madrid players has not shifted and is still focused on the upcoming Spanish national derby.

Before the Champions League quarterfinals, in addition to the Spanish national derby, there are two league games, which means that Real Madrid still has enough time to prepare for the two-legged Champions League quarterfinals against Dortmund home and away.

So the priority is the Spanish national derby at the Bernabeu Stadium the day after tomorrow.

Barcelona's draw against Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League is a real headache, but the game they need to watch for now is the national derby.

During the two days of preparation, the players on both sides of the game did not show their heads much, but the fans on both sides were a little unbearable and lonely, and used the online platform to fight each other.

In the blink of an eye, Real Madrid's home to Barcelona has arrived in the national derby matchday.

With hours to go, the square around the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium was already filled with Real Madrid fans, as well as some Barcelona fans in red and blue stripes.

However, compared to the crowds of Real Madrid fans, the number of Barcelona fans is pitiful.

Of course, it's not that Barcelona fans don't come, but now there are still a few hours before the start of the game, and many Barcelona fans are recuperating.

Like the players, they need to be in good mental shape to prepare for the next 90 minutes.

In many cases, fans in the stands consume no less energy than players who run 90 minutes on the field.

When the two sides arrived at the designated parking spot at the Bernabeu by bus, news came from Seville, the capital of Andalusia, that was not very fortunate for both sides of the national derby.

Real Betis, who sat at the Lopera Stadium at home, lost 0:2 to Atletico Madrid, which means that Atletico Madrid, which played one game first, is four points ahead of Real Madrid and five points ahead of Barcelona.

If there is no way for the countries to be decided, Atletico Madrid's points advantage will be three and four points.

……

Players from both sides showed up at the Bernabeu Stadium one after another to warm up, and the stadium with a capacity of 81,000 fans was almost filled, with only the scattered spots empty.

But over time, these empty slots were filled by ticketed fans until they were full.

The second leg of the 2013-2014 La Liga national derby is a must-see for every avid fan.

Shortly after, players from both sides returned to their dressing rooms from the players' tunnel to make final preparations for the upcoming national derby.

Atletico Madrid's 2-0 win away to Real Betis was tantamount to an ultimatum for both sides of the game.

In a draw, the points will be widened, and the winning side will certainly shrink the points, but the losing side will be further expanded.

In the home team's dressing room, Ancelotti's tactical arrangement is quite rigorous, he took the Barcelona starting list handed over by his assistant Clemente, and the official formation was four, three, three.

The goalkeeper is still Valdés, with Alba, Pique, Mascherano and Alves at the back, Xavi, Sergio Busquets and Cesc Fabregas in midfield, and Neymar, Messi and Iniesta in the forwards.

According to Ancelotti's coaching team, if nothing else, Barcelona came to the Bernabeu not to defend too much, but to ...... Offensive!

In terms of midfield, in addition to Busquets is a professional defensive midfielder, Xavi and Cesc Fabregas are both strong and weak in attack, plus Iniesta is organized in the front, Barcelona's midfield organization group is very strong.

But then again, Barcelona want to play against the Santiago Bernabeu and may be in the best interest of their own team.

In this game, Ancelotti did not plan to put Tang Zheng in the front midfield, but partnered with Xavi Alonso to play in the back, and the weak defense of Modric played in the front midfield.

Although it is only a simple swap of positions between Tang Zheng and Modric, Ancelotti's coaching team believes that the role will be crucial.

Therefore, in the key deployment before the game, Ancelotti focused on telling Tang Zheng.

In the visiting dressing room, Martino's gaze swept over every Barcelona player and finally settled on Messi.

Because...... The only player he can rely on is compatriot Messi.

Xavi is getting old, his ability and game experience are still there, but his physical fitness has declined significantly, and the first leg of this season was lost because Xavi couldn't control the overall situation.

In this game at the Bernabeu, Martino's final decision to play against Real Madrid is Messi's recent competitive form.

A hot Messi is equivalent to an inexplicable existence.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, staff knocked on the doors of the home and away dressing rooms, reminding them to go to the players' tunnel and prepare for the next national derby.

Immediately, the live broadcast switched cameras, from the panoramic view of the Bernabeu stadium to the players' tunnel, and the players from both sides gradually moved closer to the players' tunnel from two different directions, and then lined up in two teams......
