Chapter 42 2008

G14, which was interesting from the beginning. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A group of high-level executives of the giants talked very energetically, but the senior management of Arsenal and Manchester United at that time did not deal with each other and disagreed. Arsenal proposed that a league of 24 European teams should be created immediately, but Edwards' attitude was to keep 14 and then expand, and eventually Arsenal withdrew from the G14 league.

To be honest, in 98, Manchester United was not the top club in the Premier League, but they were strong and qualified to have capital at that time.

At that time, Manchester United was still a big gap compared to Liverpool, but Ferguson was in his prime, Manchester United had capital, Arsenal and Manchester United were defeated, and the professor was still a stereotypical Frenchman in the eyes of the world, and he could not be compared with Ferguson.

At the beginning of the creation of this league, there were many teams that wanted to join, but in order to improve the qualification, they directly decided to draw a path, three limiting factors.

The champion of the three major European cups, the current giants, and the seven major leagues.

The three major cup winners, the Champions League, the Europa League, the Cup Winners' Cup, which brushed off a large number of applicants.

The current giants, the unlucky ones are teams like Nottingham Forest and Hamburg, Hamburg has always been in the middle of the Bundesliga, and the former European hegemon Forest is directly a relegated second-tier team, as well as Napoli and so on.

Mainstream leagues, at the beginning of that year, there were many Champions League winning teams applying, such as the Red Star team, in the year when Maradona led Napoli to win the League Cup, the Champions League champion was the Red Star, this Red Star was not the lower team in France, but Sevilla and the former Yugoslav hegemon Red Star Belgrade Football Club.

This kind of team, in terms of record, is more qualified to enter the G14 than Manchester United back then, but their market is too small and they are rejected.

At the beginning of the establishment of G14, it went head-to-head with UEFA, which directly conceded in 99, added the second group stage of the Champions League, and expanded to 32 teams.

However, in recent years, the G14 has been declining.

Last year, when Mainz won two consecutive Bundesliga championships and entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League, G14 took the initiative to invite Mainz to join, but this matter was halfway through the discussion, and it was over, and people in the know knew that G14 had a big problem.

Otherwise, Celtic, Glasgow Rangers, Hertha Berlin and Mainz would have been rejected for so long.

Of course, this is just speculation from the outside world, the industry believes that G14 is about to be disbanded, and there is no need to expand the scope of strength, and it does not want more teams to come in and share peaches.

As a result, it really came true.

In some ways, this is also the victory of Jin Yuan over the traditional old forces, if it were not for the dissolution of the G14, teams like Chelsea, Manchester City, and Napoli would not want to rise in the future.

A team like Hoffenheim is unlikely to come out on top in the Bundesliga.

The German Football Association will not discuss a new policy on the golden yuan, which directly affects the way for Chinese capital to enter German football.

If I'm not mistaken, in the days that followed, in exchange, the title went to the G14 members and the money went to UEFA.

Therefore, Mainz has caught up with the historical gear, and this is Mainz's only chance to win the championship in recent years.

Just when G14 and UEFA were arguing, the schedule of the national leagues in 08 quietly began.

And entering the new year, it is also a new atmosphere, a new stadium.

The German Football Association approved the Mainz Century Stadium and many new stadiums around the world were idle, but the Germans were notoriously efficient, and the two-month safety review and filing were directly passed.

However, the Champions League will not work, because various ticket sales plans have come out, and the tickets have been sold, and there is no way to change it, especially the away fans from Real Madrid, and it is impossible to rebook all tickets for the new stadium in Mainz, so in the Champions League, only next season can be activated.

On February 2, the first match of the new stadium was played at Mainz vs Nuremberg. It's really not that enemies don't get together, every major event in the history of Mainz is always indispensable to Nuremberg.

On this day, the new stadium was unveiled, and the new team advertising sponsorship was also unveiled, yes, it was ZG Telecom.

At the beginning of this year, Telecom began to fully roll out the endorsement appearance in the broadcast of sports events, including CCTV's New Year's broadcast, all of which will appear Telecom logos, each broadcast room is equipped with two computers, and the big blue logo of Telecom is pasted on the back, and CCTV has also begun to start the Olympic channel, replacing the CVA5 station logo.

February 2 was the last race in Mainz before Chinese New Year's Eve.

In the words of Mr. Han: "On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, the twenty-sixth year of the lunar calendar, can Mainz eat the last and first meal of meat at the end of the year and the beginning of the year?" ”

Feelings: Teacher Han treats Nuremberg as a fat pig......

After a long rest, Wang Zhen felt that the power of the desolation in his body could no longer be suppressed, and in this game, he actually scored two free kicks in a row.

Just a little bit, he was able to score a hat-trick from a free-kick and replicate the legend of Juninho.

However, the third goal still came, Arshavin shot vigorously from outside the penalty area, the goalkeeper took it off, Wang Zhen picked up the leak in the penalty area, and scored a hat trick.

After completing this hat trick, Wang Zhen successfully completed his 100th goal in Mainz and his 82nd goal in the Bundesliga, and this season, there is still a chance to hit 100 goals.

It's only been a few seasons, and a lot of super strikers have been in a team for seven or eight years, and they have been at the top level all year round to achieve the goal of 100 goals.

However, 100 goals in Mainz's top flight is Wang Zhen's goal.

Subsequently, in Mainz, the Wang family spent a happy year together, and invited the Beckham family to come over for dinner together.

Before Wang Zhen's family was used to celebrating the New Year at noon, that is the custom of Nanchong, almost only some places in Nanchong have this habit, later, after staying in Chengdu for a long time, it was changed to eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but unfortunately, when eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in Mainz, the Spring Festival Gala has ended.

Although I complain about the Spring Festival Gala every year, I was born in a foreign country and couldn't see the Spring Festival Gala, which is still very sad.

That night, Wang Zhen made an exception and drank a small glass of liquor with Wang Meng.

On February 9, Mainz rushed to Hannover, and after a thrilling battle, Mainz defeated Hannover 3-2, scoring two goals from Wang Zhen and one goal from Arshavin.

Entering 08, Wang Zhen seems to have raised his state to a higher level, and he is becoming more and more unstoppable.

This is also the thing that makes the Bundesliga team quite speechless.

No lineup can be used or in what time period Mainz will not be beaten.

Mainz have completed a terrifying 10-game winning streak in the league and could even break the Bundesliga winning streak without the Champions League fixture.

Perhaps, before Mainz can play Bayern, Bayern will already be left far behind.

This season's Mainz is really showing that kind of hegemonic aura.

To paraphrase the sentence of a certain Internet celebrity: I make friends regardless of whether the other party has money or not, anyway, I don't have money.

Mainz is: "I don't care if the opponent is strong or not, I'm not as strong as me anyway." ”

On 15 February, the G14 and UEFA reached an agreement announcing their dissolution and the creation of the European Club Union, which will include more than 100 European clubs from all 53 UEFA member countries and will receive full official recognition for the first time.

Obviously, this is not a matter of decide, this is a plan approved by most of the current strong teams in Europe, and as for whether Mainz has received any benefits from it, only Strenz knows.

A day later, on 16 February, Mainz sat at home to Bayer Leverkusen, a rare adjustment of the season. (To be continued.) )
