When the results of the Champions League quarter-final draw were announced, Manchester United fans were glad to have drawn a draw. Manchester United this season is arguably the strongest Red Devils of the last decade. Fans are confident that the LIL combination will be able to lead the team to sweep away Shakhtar Donetsk.

Red Devils fans even crossed the quarter-finals directly on the Internet and began to discuss whether Manchester United would meet Real Madrid or Barcelona in the quarter-finals!

Jose Mourinho led LIL back to Manchester from Nyon, Switzerland. Chairman Woodward even personally greeted the group at the airport.

As soon as Mourinho got off the plane, Woodward shook his hand: "Jose, good luck." ”

Mourinho smiled: "You still have to pay attention to your opponent. There are no weak teams in the Champions League. Shakhtar Donetsk can go to the knockout stage, which shows that they still have some strength. ”

When everyone knew that Manchester United would take Shakhtar Donetsk lightly, Liu Yun faintly felt bad. You know, in the FA Cup last season, every Premier League powerhouse met Coventry City in League Two and thought it was pie in the sky. As a result, Coventry City has knocked out one Premier League powerhouse after another.

It's common sense that cup matches are prone to upsets! You can't take the enemy lightly!

has the same feeling as Liu Yun, and the magic bird Mourinho!

That morning, Jose Mourinho summoned a group of players to the conference room.

A group of players thought it was an ordinary tactical lesson. Who would have thought that when Mourinho opened the slide, it turned out to be a big map of Ukraine.

The players were weird. Is it necessary to change the tactics class to the geography class?

Mourinho pointed to the lower right end of the map of Ukraine: "Look, this is Donetsk." Coal is abundant here. The famous Donbass coal mine is located here. During World War II, the Germans sent hundreds of thousands of people from four armies to Donetsk in order to seize the Donbass coal mines. The entire city of Donetsk was almost in ruins. In the end, the Donetsk people, in cooperation with the Soviet Red Army, crushed the German offensive and rebuilt the city. ”

Lukaku's head widened when he heard this: "Honorable leader. I don't see how World War II had anything to do with our quarterfinals. ”

Jose Mourinho glared at Lukaku. Liu Yun patted Lukaku on the shoulder and motioned for him to silence.

Mourinho continued: "As we all know, 3 years ago, there was internal (river crab) chaos in Ukraine. The Donetsk region, Ukraine's eastern industrial center, is under artillery fire. Shakhtar Donetsk's home stadium was also not spared, twice heavily damaged by artillery fire. Shakhtar Donetsk, the pride of the city, had to leave their homeland and move their home stadium to Lviv, 600 kilometers from Donetsk。。。。。 Donetsk was again in ruins in the war 3 years ago. But the Donetsk people did not abandon the city. They cleaned up the ruins and rebuilt the city。。。。。 ”

Mourinho raised his voice at this point: "I would say that the spirit of a city is sometimes the spirit of a team. The city in which a team's home stadium is located will be marked with the spirit of that city. I've been watching footage of Shakhtar Donetsk's game for a few days. This team may have an average level of skill and tactics, but they have a tenacious style of play on the field, fierce pressing, and physical running... This team is a lot like last season's FA Cup winners, Coventry. It is also a weak brigade, and it also has a tenacious and unyielding spirit. In cup competitions, such teams are most prone to upsets! ”

Lukaku was still a little unimpressed: "Boss, are you over-praising our opponents? After all, they are just a third-rate European club. ”

Mourinho pointed at Liu Yun: "Lukaku, you ask the old lieutenant." How did he lead an English fourth-tier team to the FA Cup? Football is round, and anything is possible. There is also a phrase that is the motto of the Coventry team. Liu, you tell everyone. ”

Liu Yun got up and said the motto that represents the spirit of Coventry: "As long as you stand in the wind, pigs can fly to the sky." ”

Mourinho nodded: "What a classic sentence!" Remember, what we have to do in the knockout round is not to give Shakhtar Donetsk a chance to fly into the sky! Don't underestimate the enemy! ”

Liu Yun thought to himself that at the end of the draw ceremony, there were even rumors on the Internet that Mourinho would send a second-tier squad against Shakhtar Donetsk. Looking at it now, Mu Shuai will definitely play with the main force. After all, it's the knockout rounds of the Champions League! The much-anticipated knockout round of the Champions League!

Jose Mourinho began to count Shakhtar Donetsk's record over the years: "In the last 20 years, Shakhtar Donetsk have won the Ukrainian Premier League eight times, the Ukrainian Cup nine times, the Soviet Cup four times, the Ukrainian Super Cup four times, and 10 years ago, they even lifted the UEFA Cup. They have a strength gap with us. But no matter how big the gap is between them and us, is there a big gap between Coventry and Chelsea? Now that Coventry can beat Chelsea to lift the FA Cup, Shakhtar Donetsk definitely have a chance to beat us! ”

Liu Yun secretly thought that Mourinho is really well versed in the way of Huaguo's radical generals.

As soon as Mourinho's words came out, a group of players expressed their positions.

"We will never give Shakhtar Donetsk a chance to beat us!"

"That's right! We did our best! Sure to beat Shakhtar Donetsk! ”

"Don't give Shakhtar Donetsk any chance to work miracles!"

Mourinho slapped his head and signaled the players to be quiet: "Okay! In short, we have to do our best to play this game! The first step in rebuilding Manchester United's dynasty is to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League! We are not afraid of any opponent and will never take any opponent lightly! ”

At the end of the meeting, Liu Yun whispered to Ibu: "Mu Shuai is like a skilled watchmaker, who can wind us up at any time. ”

Eevee nodded, "Of course." Our head is one of the best coaches in Europe! ”

The Champions League quarter-finals are played over two legs, home and away. Manchester United will fly to Ukraine to take on Shakhtar Donetsk away before moving on to home.

The two-legged knockout rounds on the pitch have always been considered dominant. How to convert the advantage into a Champions League quarter-final place depends on whether Manchester United can play their strength normally.

Liu Yun persuaded himself, but it was still that word - normal heart. Just play this game as if it were a normal league game and play at your normal level.

After the meeting at the training base, Dardania took Liu Yun back to the seaside villa.

Now that Isabella is pregnant, according to Chinese tradition, the job of driving and picking up people is no longer suitable for her. LIU XIAOYAN IS INTENSIVELY PREPARING FOR THE A-LEVEL EXAM AT SCHOOL, THAT IS, THE UK COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAMINATION. So Liu Yun's two beautiful full-time drivers are already laid-off.

When he got home, Liu Yun took a shower. His phone rang suddenly.
