Yes, the rules for the round of 16 draw for the UEFA Champions League are the same as before.

The draw for the 1/8 finals of the 2010-2011 UEFA Champions League adopted the principle of avoiding the same group and avoiding the same football association. This means that teams that have met in the group stage will not meet in the 1/8 finals, and teams from the same association will not meet in the 1/8 finals.

At the same time, the eight top teams in the group will face the team that finished second in the group stage, and the top team in the group will also have the advantage of playing away and then home.

In other words, Borussia Dortmund, who are second in the group, will only be able to pick their opponents from the eight teams that have won the group. Moreover, Tottenham Hotspur, who are in the same group as Borussia Dortmund, and Schalke 04 and Bayern Munich, who are from the same group as Borussia Dortmund, will not be his opponents.

In other words, Dortmund's opponents will be drawn between Manchester United, Barcelona, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk.

Obviously, the best place to deal with is Shakhtar Donetsk, who are the weakest group winners.

Of course, Shakhtar Donetsk are also the target of all the second-place teams in the group.

It's really difficult for Dortmund to draw them!

Except for Shakhtar Donetsk, the first lesson of the other groups is giants, which is not easy to deal with.

In an interview before the draw, Gu Zhen said: "Obviously, we really want to draw Shakhtar Donetsk. But it depends on luck, as for the other teams, everyone who is drawn is the same! ”

Yes, in Gu Zhen's seriousness, at the moment there are two options for the Donetsk miners and the non-Donetsk miners.

Klopp thinks so, too.

In an interview with media reporters, Klopp said: "We naturally hope to be able to draw Shakhtar Donetsk, as for the other teams are very strong, everyone is the same. Of course, we are not afraid of any opponent, and it is the same for whoever we draw! ”

Yes, it is indeed possible to pretend to be forced at this time.

And now, Klopp led Gu Zhen and others directly to Nyon, Switzerland, where they went to participate in the draw ceremony for the round of 16 knockout round of 16 of this season's UEFA Champions League.

This ceremony is still very important to Dortmund, and Klopp wants to be there in person when he drinks Gu Zhen.

Gu Zhen came to Nyon, Switzerland, and this is naturally not the first time he has come. He was there for the UEFA Europa League draw last season, and he was also here for this season's group stage draw, so he's no stranger to it.

Now Gu Zhen is really proficient.

On that day, countless media reporters gathered outside the conference center, of course, Tang Yan, the goddess of luck, also came to the scene, and almost all the reporters flocked to Tang Yan, wanting to touch Tang Yan's light.

Don't say it, Tang Yan really continued her very good luck.

Tang Yan interviewed Klopp, Gu Zhen, Fogg, Cristiano Ronaldo, Van Gaal, Robben, Rooney and Messi.

This is the envy of fellow media reporters.

This Tang Yan is really toxic, why is she able to interview these celebrities every time? Could it be that Tang Yan is Gu Zhen's girlfriend? Do these celebrities want to give Gu Zhen face?

Otherwise, why did they accept Tang Yan's interview?

If Gu Zhen knew that these guys would think like this, he would really be very angry, he and Tang Yancai didn't have any feelings for men and women, they were just familiar friends at most, and they didn't have any other relationship.

Gu Zhen followed Jurgen Klopp into the conference center, which gathered a lot of famous coaches and stars in football, no wonder so many media reporters wanted to come in.

Gu Zhen naturally greeted the bigwigs around him one by one, of course, Gu Zhen was also recruited by many people, which made Klopp very angry. Of course, Klopp is not angry with Gu Zhen, but angry with the garbage that digs the foot of the wall.

Why dig into the corners of our Dortmund? Why Gu Zhen?

Gu Zhen is not for sale in our country, don't think about it, Gu Zhen will only stay in our Dortmund, don't even think about it!

Gu Zhen drank Klopp and came to his position in the Dortmund club and sat down.

The scene soon fell silent as the draw ceremony was about to begin.

At this time, UEFA's secretary general, Gianni Infantino, came out of the background and will preside over the draw ceremony.

All the guests at the scene gave Infantino a round of applause, and the applause was like thunder.

Infantino was naturally very happy, and stretched out his hand to the guests in the audience, signaling that their applause could be stopped, really could be stopped.

Infantino began by saying: "It's great that you're here for this draw ceremony. Thank you! Of course, first of all, let me personally send my best wishes to the resentful Inter Milan team who are competing in the Club World Cup, and I hope they can achieve a very good result in the Club World Cup! ”

Yes, Inter Milan are now on their way to the Club World Cup, having won last season's UEFA Champions League.

Naturally, the people below also gave a round of applause, and this applause was given to Inter Milan.

It's a pity that the people from Inter Milan didn't come here, they were already eliminated, which is really a pity.

Infantino added: "There have been a lot of interesting things in the UEFA Champions League so far this season, and there are also very new faces who have entered the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League, so let's welcome them, they are Copenhagen!" ”

Yes, FC Copenhagen qualified for the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in their history, which is really a big breakthrough for their club!

Infantino added: "Then there is the Tottenham team from the Premier League, who won the UEFA Champions League group for the first time since the UEFA Champions League restructured, which is also something to celebrate, congratulations to Tottenham Hotspur. ”

Gu Zhen bowed slightly, and also gave applause to the Tottenham Hotspur team.

This season, Tottenham Hotspur has indeed performed very well, Gu Zhen is in the same group as them, he is naturally very clear, so he immediately applauded and gave the applause to the Tottenham Hotspur people.

The Tottenham Hotspur representative naturally thanked everyone for the applause, thank you very much.

Infantino then said: "Congratulations to all of you, your team has advanced to the last 16 of this season's UEFA Champions League. Now let's take a look at how each team advanced from one of the group stages! ”

Immediately, a short video clip of the top 16 teams advancing to the UEFA Champions League was immediately played on the big screen at the scene. First of all, the first team is Tottenham Hotspur in the first group, and the best part of each of their games is included in this video, which is to let everyone on the scene see the process of Tottenham Hotspur qualification.

Tottenham Hotspur were lucky to finish top of the group, and if they hadn't scored late in the final round, they would have finished second in the group.

Then Tottenham Hotspur is followed by Dortmund, who are second in the first group, and Dortmund have performed very well, they are unbeaten in six games in the group, which is really good.

The scene also resounded with thunderous applause.

Obviously, this video is arranged according to the order of the groups, one by one.

The people on the scene are very serious and themselves, because there are their opponents, they want to understand their opponents, understand their first-hand information, and prepare for the next game.

Now Gu Zhen is guessing who their Dortmund knockout opponent will be? Could it be Shakhtar Donetsk?

To tell the truth, Gu Zhen really hopes to be able to draw Shakhtar Donetsk.

At this time, the video of the promotion road to the top 16 teams this season has been played, and the lights on the scene are also on. Infantino then brought in his partner in today's draw, Marchetti, the director of the competition department from UEFA's competition department.

Marcetti then briefed everyone on the Champions League knockout schedule.

The first leg of the 2010-2011 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals will be played on 15/16 and 22/23 February 2011, the second leg on 8/9 and 15/16 March 2011, and the final at Wembley Stadium in London, England on 28 May 2011.

Gu Zhen and Klopp naturally recorded this schedule, and at the same time they were thinking back to Dortmund's schedule in the Bundesliga, to see if they would also meet strong teams in the league at that time, if they really met strong teams, their luck would be bad.

At this moment, Marchetti immediately said: "I have a very sorry thing to tell you here, that is, our guest in the draw for this knockout round, Manchester United legend Sir Bobby Charlton did not go to the stadium in time to catch the plane because of heavy snow, so he will not appear here today, very thin!" ”

Gu Zhen was slightly stunned, he really didn't expect such a thing to happen.

However, this is due to natural weather and has nothing to do with the organizers, so he can still understand it.

After explaining this, Infantino and Marchetti began the draw for this season's Champions League, and everyone in the audience was nervous.

Gu Zhen's eyes were also firmly fixed on the stage, he really hoped that they would be able to draw the Donetsk miners.

The draw began, with Roma from Italy drawn first, and the Serie A powerhouses drew Shakhtar Donetsk, who were almost the weakest in the group.

Seeing this, Gu Zhen was really speechless, is the luck of the Romans so good?

In the second round, Italy's AC Milan were drawn, and the Rossoneri faced Tottenham Hotspur, who beat Borussia Dortmund to win the group; The third round was drawn from La Liga side Valencia, and the opponent of the Bats was Schalke 04 from the Bundesliga; Gu Zhen's Borussia Dortmund team was drawn in the fourth round, and their opponent turned out to be Chelsea from the English Premier League.

Seeing this result, Gu Zhen bowed slightly, as long as it is not Shakhtar Donetsk, any other opponent is acceptable, and they are all the same.

Without drawing the Donetsk miners, Gu Zhen guessed such a result.

It's okay to accept it!

The fifth round was drawn from Ligue 1 giants Lyon, and their opponents were Real Madrid led by Jose Mourinho; Drawn in the sixth round were Premier League giants Arsenal, with the Gunners meeting Barcelona, who knocked them out last season; In the seventh round, Ligue 1 powerhouse Marseille will face Premier League giants Manchester United, and in the final second group, only Denmark's Copenhagen will be left, while their opponents will be Bayern Munich.

So, by this time, the draw for the round of 16 of the 2010-2011 UEFA Champions League was also in, and the results were as follows:

Roma vs Shakhtar Donetsk, AC Milan vs Tottenham Hotspur, Valencia vs Schalke 04, Borussia Dortmund vs Chelsea, Lyon vs Real Madrid, Arsenal vs Barcelona, Marseille vs Barcelona and Copenhagen vs Bayern Munich.
