Chapter 095 - Semi-final opponent (10th more ask for a monthly pass, monthly pass 4800)

In the post-match press conference between Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United, Moyes remained convinced that United could come out of the gloom under his leadership: "The responsibility will always fall on the manager, when we win we are one and when we lose. I believe the future is bright for me and Manchester United, and we have to persevere, persevere, persevere. ”

Moyes refused to answer the media criticism and questions about his refusal to allow Jiang Chenxi to join Manchester United.

Moyes' attitude at the press conference, and his remarks, angered Manchester United fans, who exploded on the Internet while the United team was still in Germany and had not yet returned to Manchester.

They made all sorts of animations and jokes to mock Moyes.

A set of divine drawings from Footy Humour, Lord Fergus gave Moyes a cool red Manchester United sports car, and then Moyes accidentally crashed into a telephone pole on the side of the road, which Lord Fame also seemed speechless. But what's worse is that at this time, Klopp and Jiang Chenxi drove over in a blue roller, and then directly overturned the red sports car driven by Moyes!

Manchester United netizens also photoshopped a picture of Moyes being beaten, in fact, this picture is also an old picture, but netizens really like this picture too much! For the third time this season, he lost 3-1 to Borussia Dortmund, and after the 6-1 match by Borussia Dortmund, Moyes returned to Manchester and was beaten and bruised after coming out of the Carrington training base. The picture on the picture shows Moyes in an interview with a scarred face: Yes...... The meeting with Sir Alex Ferguson was a great pleasure.

……

Borussia Dortmund beat Manchester United 3-1 at home to knock out the Red Devils 6-1 on aggregate and advance to the semi-finals of this season's Champions League.

After the game, the German domestic media was jubilant.

The German media have praised Dortmund's performance, believing that the former Champions League champions are regaining their lost glory for the club, reaching the final last season, reaching the semi-finals again this season, and hopefully reaching the final for two consecutive seasons.

Especially after Bayern Munich was beaten by Real Madrid and went out with a humiliating score of 0:5 over two legs, Dortmund reached the semi-finals and saved face in the Bundesliga, so this also made Dortmund's promotion quite a bit of 'the whole of Germany is cheering'.

Bild: "The unstoppable Borussia Dortmund, sweeping everything like a hurricane, Jiang is the best player in Dortmund, Wayne Rooney disappears at half-time and David Moyes sounds the death knell of the lesson. ”

"Kicker": "Dortmund had a sluggish start, but, fortunately, they had Jiang, Jiang used his goal to arouse Dortmund's fighting spirit, and the Hornets were unstoppable under Jiang's leadership!" Manchester United are out of the game without any suspense! ”

Even Bayern Munich congratulated Dortmund on their advancement, and Hoeness said in an interview that Dortmund's semi-final is an honor for the Bundesliga, and he wished Dortmund good luck.

When he said this in front of the camera, the Bayern boss had a sincere smile on his face.

As for what Hoeness thought in his heart, it is not known.

……

In the other Champions League quarter-finals, Barcelona defeated Barcelona 1-0 at home with a goal from Koke in five minutes, and eliminated Barcelona 2-1 on aggregate over two legs to reach the semi-finals.

Barcelona were knocked out by Atletico Madrid, which shocked the whole of Europe.

However, when it comes to the two legs, Atletico Madrid's promotion seems to be a logical one.

The first leg was 1-1 away, and Atletico Madrid scored a crucial away goal.

In this game, Atletico Madrid scored early, and Barcelona, who was behind early, had 71% possession of the ball, but 3 of the 12 shots on target were not as good as Atletico Madrid's relevant data, and it was obvious that the home team's offensive efficiency was higher. Barcelona were trapped in the opponent's bucket formation throughout the game, not a single offside, seven corners were also fruitless, and Barcelona goalkeeper Pinto made four saves to surpass Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Courtois's three, and the scene was embarrassing.

After the game, the Spanish media praised Atletico Madrid.

"Marca": "This is Atletico Madrid's Champions League, Koke's 5-minute goal eliminated Barcelona, Atletico Madrid reached the Champions League semifinals again after 40 years, Costa was absent, Messi's performance was average. ”

World Sport: "Barcelona are out of the treble and have lost their first major game of the season. ”

Daily Sport: "European dreams shattered, Barcelona went through torture at CalderΓ³n and Koke's goal was fatal. ”

The newspaper Ace even said that Atletico Madrid have a chance of winning the title, and their reason is that since the 2007/2008 season, the teams that eliminated Barcelona have won the title in the end......

……

Jiang Chenxi and his teammates were taken aback when they learned that Barcelona was eliminated by Atletico Madrid.

In their opinion, Barcelona with Messi is very strong, don't look at the current La Liga standings Atletico Madrid ranked first, beating Real Madrid and Barcelona, one point ahead of Real Madrid, two points ahead of Barcelona, but, in the Champions League, Barcelona has a dominant performance in recent years, and the difficulty of Atletico Madrid to eliminate Barcelona can be imagined.

That's why they were so surprised to learn that Atletico Madrid had eliminated Barcelona.

However, Barcelona is out, which Dortmund people are happy to see, after all, Barcelona, nicknamed the Cosmos, is too strong, no one wants to touch it, and someone will eliminate Barcelona, which is good news.

Now, the 2013/2014 Champions League semi-finals have been announced:

Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Chelsea.

La Liga has Madrid, while the Bundesliga and Premier League each have one spot.

……

The German media are also hotly discussing Dortmund's possible opponents in the semi-finals.

Subsequently, the German media found out with some pessimism that these three opponents were not easy to deal with.

Needless to say, Real Madrid, the Galaxy Battleship is a super giant, a grade above other teams.

Atletico Madrid can lead Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, and their elimination of Barcelona has made people look at Simeone's team even more.

As for Chelsea, the Blues are now third in the Premier League, but only two points behind leaders Manchester City, and most remarkably, in the first season of Jose Mourinho's return to Chelsea, people have seen the iron-blooded Blues again, and currently in the Premier League, Chelsea have conceded the fewest goals, conceding only 24 goals in 33 games!

And, most notably, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is one of the most successful managers in the Champions League in the 21st century, with an excellent record in the knockout stages and just four years ago leading Inter Milan to the top of Europe, with Mourinho's side widely considered by the German media to be more difficult than Simeone's.

In the end, the German media came to the conclusion that among the top four, Dortmund is the weakest, and the other three opponents are not easy to deal with, if you have to choose one of these three teams, the German media agrees that the choice is: Atletico Madrid.

Cause? Atletico Madrid manager Simeone is a rookie coach in the Champions League.

That's all.

……

A day later, UEFA held a draw for the 2013/2014 UEFA Champions League semi-finals in Nyon, Switzerland.

The results of the semi-final matchups are in:

Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid!
