December 14, 2013, Bundesliga round 16.

Borussia Dortmund were held to a 2-2 draw away by Hoffenheim, Jiang Chenxi scored with a header in the game, and his tally in the Bundesliga this season has reached 18, just one less than Lewandowski, the top scorer, but Bayern Munich's game was played later than Dortmund.

Bayern Munich's opponent in this round is Hamburg, the Southern Kings won comfortably 3-1, Muller scored twice, and Mandzukic came off the bench to score a goal.

In the game, Bayern Munich players also frequently sent good passes to Lewandowski, but the Poles were cursed by someone to draw a circle, just not to score, and even in the second half of the game to get a penalty opportunity did not take advantage of it, but it was Mandzukic who came on as a substitute to score a goal.

Since Lewandowski did not score in this round of the league, it is still 19 goals, and Jiang Chenxi is only one goal away from the Poles.

However, because Bayern Munich continued to win in this round of the league, and Dortmund was forced to draw by Hoffenheim, Bayern Munich has a lead of as much as 5 points over Dortmund in the league standings.

……

The German media "Kicker" analyzes the reason why Dortmund does not seem to be able to pose an urgent sense of threat to Bayern Munich in the league: Dortmund's squad is not thick enough!

Compared with the star-studded Nanda King on the bench, although the main lineup of the Hornets is quite enough, the substitute lineup is a big difference, and if a player in the main lineup is injured or suspended, Dortmund's overall strength will be affected.

Perhaps Dortmund, who are in excellent form, can beat Bayern Munich in a direct duel, but in a long league and a season that requires regular momentum, the shortcomings of Dortmund's lack of depth in the squad are exposed.

"Now, the most fortunate thing for the Dortmund hierarchy is to sign Jiang in the summer, he quickly passed the adaptation period and successfully filled the vacancy after Lewandowski's departure, and Jiang is younger, more potential, Jiang has maintained a very good competitive form on all three fronts, which is very ......rare" - "North Rhine Evening News" once again sent praise to Jiang Chenxi, a media outlet now recognized as the number one Jiang Blow.

They can always find details and reasons to praise Jiang Chenxi, which convinces you, and this ability is also impressive.

Dortmund training ground, their head coach Jurgen. Jurgen Klopp is in a meeting with his coaching staff, the winter break is approaching, the winter transfer market is about to open, and Dortmund need reinforcements!

……

On December 16, 2013, Dortmund's sporting director Zogek and the team's head coach Jurgen Murphy were announced. Klopp arrived in Nyon, Switzerland.

The draw for the 2013/2014 Champions League quarter-finals will take place at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

The draw ceremony officially began, UEFA Secretary-General Gianni Infantino first appeared on the stage, introduced UEFA President Platini and representatives of various clubs, briefly reviewed the production process of the round of 16, and then browsed the group stage process of the round of 16 through the big screen. Finalist Ambassador Louis. Figo was invited to the stage, where he spoke about what it was like to win the Champions League in the past, while giving a brief introduction to the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, the venue for the final.

Marchetti, the head of UEFA's competition department, is still responsible for introducing the rules: the eight teams that finish first in the group will play against the eight teams who finish second in the group, and at the same time, they must also adhere to the two basic principles that teams from the same national association cannot meet and teams in the same group stage cannot meet, and the team that wins the group stage will still enjoy the right to play away before the host in the 1/8 finals, more precisely, this should be regarded as a benefit.

Marchetti then introduced the eight teams that finished first and second in the group.

Group winners: Manchester United (England), Real Madrid (Spain), Paris Saint-Germain (France), Bayern Munich (Germany), Chelsea (England), Borussia Dortmund (Germany), Atletico Madrid (Spain), Barcelona (Spain). The second teams in the group are: Bayer Leverkusen (Germany), Galatasaray (Turkey), Olympiacos (Greece), Manchester City (England), Schalke 04 (Germany), Napoli (Italy), Zenit St. Petersburg (Russia), AC Milan (Italy).

……

Jiang Chenxi watched the draw ceremony with Royce, Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at Royce's luxury villa.

The first team to be drawn by Infantino was Manchester City, and then Figo drew them to Barcelona.

Immediately after, Infantino pulled out Olympiacos.

"That's good." Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang shouted.

Several people nodded, this is the team that gave away heads.

Then, they saw Figo pull out Manchester United, Manchester United vs Olympiacos, and in the camera, Red Devils manager David Moyes had a satisfied smile on his lips.

Subsequently, Infantino drew Napoli, who were in the same group as Borussia Dortmund. And Figo drew out Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid vs Napoli.

Subsequently, Bayer Leverkusen were also drawn, and they were drawn by Figo to Ligue 1 newcomer Paris Saint-Germain.

Another team from the Bundesliga, Schalke 04, was drawn to Real Madrid, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti had a calm face, but I am afraid that his heart is happy at this time.

……

At this time, the only remaining group runners are AC Milan, Galatasaray, and Zenit St. Petersburg.

Infantino then drew AC Milan, the second team in the group of eight to be second in terms of reputation and strength.

"It won't be drawn to us." Mkhitaryan said suddenly.

Then, he was in the spotlight, because the team that Figo then drew was Borussia Dortmund: Dortmund vs. AC Milan!

There was a burst of exclamations from the scene, and last season's Champions League runners-up against AC Milan, a veteran giant who has topped Europe seven times, is definitely a compelling matchup.

'Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan meet and it's a real top matchup. He Wei, who was broadcast live on CCTV, shouted, his voice was slightly excited, and his tone was ridiculous, "Dortmund has Reus and Jiang Chenxi, and AC Milan has Kaka and Balotelli, which is a very good match." ”

Subsequently, the remaining two match-ups were also revealed, with Galatasaray being drawn to Chelsea; Zenit St. Petersburg, who was promoted, faced Bayern Munich, and the Bundesliga South King drew a good draw.

……

Speaking of Zenit St. Petersburg, which reached the round of 16, at this moment, I believe Arsenal fans will feel very difficult to accept.

Zenit is a well-deserved "local tyrant" team in the Russian Premier League in the past two years, and they have spent 60 or 70 million euros to buy Brazilian striker Hulk and Belgian midfielder Witsel. However, the team's performance in this year's Champions League group stage is sorry for its status as a "local tyrant".

In the first five rounds of the group stage, the Zenit team only won one game, and although they were temporarily in second place in the group, they only had a pitiful 6 points. In the early hours of yesterday morning, they welcomed their last opponent in the group stage, Vienna from Austria. Facing Vienna, who are not famous in world football, Zenit scored the first goal with Hulk's assist, but then was beaten by the opponent with four goals in a row and suffered a tragic reversal. With such a bad record and such a low number of points, the Zenit team will not get anyone's sympathy if they are out.

However, in the other match of the group, group leaders Atletico Madrid beat Porto 2-0, which made the group dramatic as Zenit advanced to the knockout stage as they finished second in the group. Zenit set a record when they became the first team to qualify for the knockout stages with just six points from the group stage after the Champions League was restructured.

Zenit St. Petersburg reached the round of 16 with 6 points, while Arsenal, who were deep in the group of death, got 9 points, but were sadly eliminated by two fewer goals.

Therefore, whether you can qualify from the group or not, the draw group is really important......
