Chapter 853: The Draw for the Quarterfinals

The group stage of the AFC Champions League has reached its final stage. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The brutal format of only the top two teams in the group can qualify also makes the final stage of the group stage full of "knockout" feeling.

For example, the Melbourne Tigers are already a team that appeared in advance, but there are no more characters, and they can completely "empty the game".

In the JBA, the Kagoshima Antlers have been eliminated, and the team can prepare for the domestic league with peace of mind.

The situation of the Tokyo duo, the Tokyo Rising Sun and the Tokyo Great White Shark, is very different.

The promotion of the Rising Sun team is very good, and the initiative that emerges is firmly in their own hands.

The Great White Shark is not so lucky, the team's qualifying situation is not optimistic, and there is only a theoretical possibility.

So the team may also be like the Antlers, almost fully preparing for the domestic league.

Japanese champions Mito Electronics are the only of the four Jba teams to have a chance to top their group.

Mito Electronics went all the way to the group stage, and although they didn't have a dominant winning streak like the Melbourne Tigers, the team almost won the game they deserved.

The 6-3 record is the same as the second place in the same group, Seoul Roses, that is, Rukawa Kaede's "hometown team", but because the two teams have a better net difference in the previous two games, so they occupy the first place in the group, but considering that the opponents of both teams in the final round have no desire to compete, so if nothing else, the two teams won at the same time and entered the quarterfinals together.

At the beginning of the season, the mobilization meeting of the management of the electronic team has made it clear that the team is aiming for a "double".

This point is also absolutely supported by the team's Rukawa Kaede and Takano.

And judging by the current situation, it seems that there is a good chance.

In the league, the electronic team has been leading, the run-in of the team's big three is getting more and more tacit, the chemistry is getting better and better, and in several direct conversations with the same favorite team, Rukawa Kaede also showed a dominant performance, and the "double crown" does not seem to be far away~~

During the analysis, the final round of matches has all ended, and the quarterfinals of the first AFC Champions League have also been released

Group A: Melbourne Tigers, Tehran Telecom.

Iran Haoqiang advanced strongly in the final round, and they have also become the only hope for the West Asian team~~ and the Tigers believe that it should be something that any team in the top eight is unwilling to face~~

Group B: Manila Victory, Tokyo Sunrise.

The Filipino champions took a step towards the final night in Manila, and the "Wang Fried Combination" successfully qualified from the group, which also gave Tokyo fans more expectations.

Group C: Sydney Kings, Liaoning Flying Leopards.

Both goals are not very favourable to qualify for the UI, and perhaps they will be the X-factor in the quarterfinals.

Group D: Mito Electronics, Seoul Roses.

As the only remaining team in the Korean League, the upcoming quarterfinals should be a game for the Roses to represent the whole of South Korea~~

Two teams from Japan, two teams from Australia, one each from China, South Korea, the Philippines and Iran.

Eight teams from six countries will start the next stage of the more brutal quarterfinals.

According to the format of the quarterfinals, the draw for the knockout stage will be held first.

The draw will divide the eight teams into the upper and lower halves, and the two teams will play home and away knockout rounds.

If both teams win each home field, it will depend on the goal difference of both teams.

The draw for the knockout round will be held in Manila, the capital of the Philippines, where the first AFC Champions League final will be held.

Because there is a situation where the upper and lower halves are divided, this grouping looks even more suspenseful.

This is not only the opponent of the quarterfinals, it is very likely that there will be an opponent in the semi-finals, or an opponent who has played against each other in the group stage, or an opponent in the same league, which is very likely~~

In the brightly lit lecture hall of a hotel in Manila, representatives of the top eight teams will attend the draw on behalf of their respective teams.

The stage has been prepared to call the duel board, eight empty seats are waiting, only the representatives of each team come to the stage, take out the small basketball in the transparent bowl, and the name of each team will be inside.

In order to ensure the principles of fairness, impartiality and openness, the eight teams will draw lots in turn according to the order of the draw prepared in advance, and each player will take a ball from the bowl, but no one knows which team will be taken out.

Therefore, the fate of the eight teams is not in the hands of their respective representatives.

The quarterfinals are all arranged by fate~~

As he spoke, the draw ceremony for the knockout rounds of the first AFC Champions League began immediately.

The first to take the stage was the representative of the Korean League Seoul Roses.

Under the guidance of Miss Manners, the representative came to the front of the stage and shook the small basketball in the bowl.

Without hesitating for long, the Koreans took out a small ball, unscrewed it and took out a note that had been stuffed beforehand.

"King of Sydney~~"

The note was opened and presented to everyone, and the host quickly said.

"Bang Bang Bang ~ !!"

The media reporters at the scene also crackled and filmed.

The first team in the top half of the knockout round was born, and the Australian team became the first team to solve the mystery.

Next, let's take a look at who will be the opponent of the Australian version of the Kings in the quarterfinals.

Next up is the representative of the Chinese team Liaoning Flying Leopards.

As the only seedling of the Chinese league, the Flying Leopards naturally hope to draw a good signing.

"Liaoning Flying Leopard~~"

"Oh~~"

With an exclamation at the scene, Liaoning Flying Leopard became the first team to select itself.

Looking at the helpless look of the representative of the Flying Leopards, it seems that the team did not want to play against the Australian team before.

This is also normal, the style of play between Asian teams and Australian teams is already very different, and because of geographical relations, this is a really unbearable away game.

And don't forget that the two teams also happen to be from the top two of Group C, and the opponents in the group stage meet again in the knockout round, so they may be better prepared, but even so, I believe the Flying Leopards will think that this is a signing.

King of Sydney - Liaoning Flying Leopard

The first group of the first half of the knockout round is released, and it is also a civil battle in Group C.

Next will be the second group matchup in the top half.

The third person to come to the stage to draw the lot was Tehran Telecom.

Look at the luck of the Iranian team.

"Melbourne Tiger~~"

The Melbourne Tigers, who were the strongest, had the best performance and had the best results in the group stage, appeared.

Let's see who will meet the Tigers in the quarter-finals, which will be the most reluctant opponent of any team in the first round.

With five balls left in the bowl, all teams have a 20% chance of being drawn.

"Manila Victory~~"

"Oh~!!!!"

With an exclamation on the scene, the host team appeared in front of everyone.

The Melbourne Tigers vs Manila won, perhaps the most understood matchup in the quarter-finals, even if the bottom half of the matchup is yet to come.

The two teams that were predicted to appear in the final, just like that, met in the quarterfinals.
