The draw ceremony of the Champions League and the award ceremony are together, and the awards are presented in the interval between the draws. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The first award was given to the best goalkeeper.

Among those shortlisted for the best goalkeeper are Real Madrid's goalkeeper Casillas, Barcelona goalkeeper Valdés, and champion Hoffenheim's goalkeeper Nyema. The award was presented to former world number one goalkeeper Kahn, who had a bit of a humour before revealing who was the best goalkeeper.

"I'm surprised that there wasn't Chu on the shortlist."

The numerous players, coaches and club presidents sitting below laughed. There are still many people who turned their heads to find Chu Zhongtian. Chu Zhongtian sat in his place, and he didn't expect that Karn, who was not smiling, would make a joke of himself here.

Duan Bin, the CCTV commentator who was in charge of broadcasting the lottery ceremony, also laughed when he heard this.

"Haha! Kahn was right when he said that the best goalkeeper in the last Champions League should be awarded to Chu Zhongtian. His performance in the final was impressive, it was incredible! He is perhaps the best guest goalkeeper in world football! ”

Of course, this is a joke after all, unless Hoffenheim's entire Champions League games are Chu Zhongtian's cameo goalkeeper in the middle of the game, then it is still possible...... In the end, the best goalkeeper award was awarded to Barcelona's goalkeeper Valdés, who were able to reach the Champions League final thanks to Messi, Xavi, Andres Iniesta, attacking players such as Villa and Pedro, but in fact, the defenders led by Valdés also contributed to it.

However, when the Spanish international presented the award, Kahn was scolded with the sentence "This award should be given to Chu", making him seem to be a supporting role...... The draw ceremony continued, and another team was drawn before the award ceremony was interspersed.

Real Madrid managed to break through the quarter-final curse last season and reach the semi-finals, which earned him a lot of Champions League points, but their performances in previous seasons were so unbearable that Real Madrid were still unseeded and placed in the second tier of teams.

After the award ceremony for the best goalkeeper, it's time to draw the teams in the second tier. Which seeded team will Real Madrid play with?

There are eight seeded teams: Inter Milan in Group A, Manchester United in Group B, Bayern Munich in Group C, Barcelona in Group D, Chelsea in Group E, Arsenal in Group F, AC Milan in Group H and Lyon in Group G.

Hoffenheim, who won the Champions League last season and earned a lot of Champions League points, only moved them up from the third to the second tier, and did not make them seeded.

And because they didn't finish in the top two of the league, Hoffenheim ended up as the defending champions in a qualifying round, beating Israel's Maccabi Haifa to qualify for the main event.

Because of the second-tier team at the same time, Chu Zhongtian does not have to worry that his Real Madrid will meet Hoffenheim in the group stage.

The guest of the draw, Italian midfielder Zola, drew Real Madrid, and he held a note to show the people below and the camera, and then the other guest next to him, the head coach of the Spanish national team, Bosque, drew the group that Real Madrid is in - f.

Real Madrid and Arsenal were placed in a group.

It's not a good sign, it's not a bad sign. When the televised footage of Mourinho was played, he was expressionless, neither regretful nor ecstatic. He just turned his head and said something to Florentino, the president of the club who was sitting next to him.

The TV broadcast was followed by a close-up of Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger. Arsenal's situation in recent years is very similar to Real Madrid's, and they have not won a title for several years, but they have not won a title for a few years longer than Real Madrid. Jose Mourinho seems to have turned their luck around this season and won the Spanish Super Cup, and it was against La Liga's strongest rivals, Barcelona. And Arsene Wenger is under more pressure. It is said that some of Arsenal's top management are starting to get tired of this situation, Arsenal's football is indeed beautiful, but it can't always win the championship, what's the use of just being beautiful? is also coaching a team for a long time, and the sworn enemy Manchester United can win one title after another, but Arsenal can only rely on the beautiful style of play to be remembered, which cannot but make people feel jealous and angry. There are already high-level people considering whether it is time to change the manager, Wenger has been at Arsenal for too long, maybe there is aesthetic fatigue, right?

To keep his position, Arsene Wenger will need to win at least one title this season, league title, FA Cup, League Cup, whatever it is. Of course, it would be even better if he could lift the Champions League, with which Wenger could stay at Arsenal until his retirement.

Before the draw ceremony, after the classification of each team came out, some analysts believed that the most powerful team in the second tier was Real Madrid, which had just obtained Chu Zhongtian. After Bale, as well as Adebayo, the strength of all three lines has been strengthened. Especially Chu Zhongtian, a player who has just led Hoffenheim to the Champions League title, came to Real Madrid, and the changes he brought to Real Madrid will be worth looking forward to.

So which seeded team meets Real Madrid and which one is unlucky.

When Real Madrid's draw was drawn, except for Arsenal, all the other seeded teams were secretly relieved.

Barcelona did not, because teams from the same country would not be placed in a group according to the grouping principle of the group stage, so they were not worried about this problem from the start.

In fact, maybe it's better to be in one group, and Barcelona are now looking forward to revenge.

The final result was a group of Inter Milan and Marseille; Manchester United and Lazio are in one group; Bayern Munich and Valencia; Barcelona are in Group D after last season's Champions League final, where they were drawn from Hoffenheim. When Hoffenheim was drawn to Barcelona's group, there was a burst of heartfelt laughter and whistles in the room, and Barcelona could have found their chance for revenge...... Chelsea and Villarreal in Group E; Arsenal and Real Madrid in a group; AC Milan's Portuguese champions Porto were placed in a group; The last group is Lyon and Celtic.

※※※After the second tier of teams has been drawn, the award ceremony will continue.

After the award for the best goalkeeper, the next step was the best defender. This award has nothing to do with Chu Zhongtian, thinking that his position on the field is a midfielder, not a defender.

The winner was Srner from Hoffenheim. He has stood out in this Champions League, scoring one goal and providing two assists, playing all 13 Champions League games and deservedly being named the defender of the year. He beat Barcelona's Piquee and Bayern Munich's Lahm in the polls.

Srna stood up to accept the award, first hugging his two teammates and the manager, before walking up.

After receiving the trophy, he spoke into the microphone and said: "I want to thank my team, my team-mates and coaches. Without them, there would be no such award. I'm very happy that my team was able to win the championship. I would also like to thank my former teammate Chu ......"

The TV broadcast gave Chu Zhongtian a shot. Chu Zhongtian didn't expect Srna to mention him in his thank-you speech, and he was stunned for a moment.

"I wish him the best of luck at Real Madrid and thank him for everything he has brought us, thank you!"

After saying that, Srna raised the trophy high and walked off the stage.

There were bursts of applause.

C. Ronaldo, who was sitting next to Chu Zhongtian, also touched his shoulder and winked at him.

Chu Zhongtian was greatly moved, and his expression was even a little unnatural.

Hoffenheim was in the other seat, and he had already decided that if it was his turn to go up and receive the prize, he would run over and hug them.

He believes Mourinho should not care about this little thing. Because when he won the FIFA Coach of the Year, he hugged the players of Inter Milan, and he was already the head coach of Real Madrid at that time.

After the award of the best defender, the third round of the draw will be held, and this time the teams in the third tier will be selected.

Group A is Inter Milan, Marseille and Lille; Group B is for Manchester United, Lazio and Rangers; Group C: Bayern Munich, Valencia and PSV Eindhoven; Group D: Barcelona, Hoffenheim, Spartak Moskova; Group E: Chelsea, Villarreal and Borussia Dortmund; Group F: Arsenal, Real Madrid, Benfica; Group H: AC Milan, Porto and Dynamo Kyiv; Group G Lyon, Celtic and Kazan rubies.

There wasn't much interesting going on in this draw, and the results were decent and didn't make any associations.

However, the next award ceremony made the Chinese audience look forward to it even more.

Because it's the award for the best midfielder.

In fact, the results have not yet come out, but this award has lost its suspense, the three people who entered the shortlist are Chu Zhongtian, Xavi and Robben, Xavi and Robben can't shake Chu Zhongtian's position at all, Hoffenheim can break into the final and finally lift the Champions League trophy, Chu Zhongtian is a great contribution, he almost single-handedly carried the whole team, and all opponents confronted. Without Chu Zhongtian, Hoffenheim may not even be able to pass the group stage, let alone win the championship. In addition, his performance in the final added a lot of points to him, and such an all-round player, if he can't win the best midfielder, is UEFA's biggest scandal.

So when the guest of honor, German football emperor Beckenbauer, appeared on stage, everyone guessed the answer and applauded UEFA's arrangement - what could be more ingenious than having the first generation of liberos present trophies to a new generation of liberos?

Beckenbauer stood in front of the microphone and smiled: "Actually, I don't need to be pretentious, everyone knows who will win the final award......

Enyema and Ibisevic shouted from the audience: "Chu!! ”

It just so happened that the venue was relatively quiet at that time, and they were all listening to the speech of the football emperor, so everyone heard their voices, and some people immediately laughed.

Beckenbauer also smiled: "I regret that he didn't stay in the Bundesliga in the end, we lost an extremely good player in the Bundesliga. But no matter where he is, I'm a fan of him. His performance in the Champions League last season earned him a well-deserved award, and he was the number one midfielder in the whole of Europe and the whole world last season! ”

These words are very horizontal and extremely sensational, so that Chu Zhongtian's supporters can listen to it and be able to cool from the bones to the skin, and then from the skin back to the bones.

Everyone heard it, he was talking about Chu Zhongtian.

Some people have already set their eyes on Chu Zhongtian, and the TV broadcast camera is almost locked on Chu Zhongtian. Casillas and C. Ronaldo were congratulating him.

"Chu-!" Beckenbauer called out the names of the winners in a long voice.

The audience applauded thunderously. Chu Zhongtian's performance last season was dominant, and everyone was convinced. You must know that the best in the Champions League is voted by the managers of the 16 teams that have reached the round of 16 of the Champions League, and this award is much more valuable than the World Footballer of the Year voted by the national team managers and captains.

"Yes! It's Chu Zhongtian! Duan Bin said excitedly. Chu Zhongtian, a player from China, won the best midfielder in last season's Champions League! Deserved! Deserved! No suspense! Apart from him, I can't think of anyone else who is eligible for that award, Chu Zhongtian's performance in the Champions League is in everyone's eyes......" Duan Bin began to chatter and repeat Chu Zhongtian's great achievements in the Champions League. It's no wonder he's so excited, it's a historic moment in Chinese football – the first time a Chinese player has won the best award in the Champions League, which is an affirmation of Chu Zhongtian and a joy for Chu Zhongtian's supporters.

After Chu Zhongtian hugged his teammates in Real Madrid, he walked out, but he did not go directly to the podium, he turned a corner in front of the podium, and under the gaze of everyone, he walked to the side where the Hoffenheim players and coaches were, and then hugged Enyema, Srna, Ibisevic, and head coach Rangnick one by one.

The scene burst into applause again, for the warmth of the scene.

Chu Zhongtian's actions also shattered the previous criticism that Chu Zhongtian was ruthless and unjust. He is a man of great affection, and leaving Hoffenheim is considered from the perspective of his career prospects, but that does not mean that he and Hoffenheim's players cannot become friends.

"You deserve it, Chu! You deserve it! Enyema shouted to him in Chu Zhongtian's ear.

After Rangnick hugged him, he watched Chu Zhongtian turn around and walk onto the podium with some disappointment, accepting the cheers of everyone.

Such an excellent player, Hoffenheim kept him for three seasons, and finally did not keep it...... Maybe this was the fate of Hoffenheim? He doesn't know how many players he will have left in his squad at the end of the season. Since Dietma. Hope can no longer feed the team with funds, then the team will have to pay for its own profits and losses, and the majority of the team's income will be the income from player transfers, in addition to the TV broadcast share. Hoffenheim will then be like any ordinary football club, selling the players who can bring money to the team, and then using the funds to find players who are good and cheap...... When Chu Zhongtian was distracted by Rangnick, he walked to Beckenbauer's side.

Beckenbauer held the trophy in his hand and shook hands with Chu Zhongtian with one hand: "Congratulations, Chu." Your performance in the Champions League impressed everyone and now you are the best midfielder! ”

After speaking, he handed the trophy to Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian took it with both hands, and thunderous applause resounded in the arena.

He raised the trophy in his hand, then set it aside and said, "Thank you, Mr. Beckenbauer, and thank you to the managers who voted for me." But I would like to thank all my teammates at Hoffenheim. I'm glad I've been with you for three seasons, winning the league and the Champions League. Thank you, without you, there would be no me, thank you! He spoke a thank-you speech in fluent English.

After speaking, Chu Zhongtian walked off the podium with the trophy.

But I'm sure he'll come up later.

※※※ Next, the lottery ceremony continued, and soon all the lottery results came out:

Group A: Inter Milan, Marseille, Lille, Manchester City.

Group B: Manchester United, Lazio, Glasgow Rangers, Shakhtar Donetsk.

Group C: Bayern Munich, Valencia, PSV Eindhoven, Bereda Bilek.

Group D: Barcelona, Hoffenheim, Spartak Moscow, Napoli.

Group E: Chelsea, Villarreal, Borussia Dortmund, FC Twente.

Group F: Arsenal, Real Madrid, Benfica, Olympiacos.

Group H: AC Milan, Porto, Dynamo Kyiv, Brady.

Group G: Lyon, Celtic, Kazan Ruby, Panathinaikos.

In fact, what is the result of the lottery, few Chinese audiences are concerned. Everyone is waiting for the final award ceremony.

The best striker was given to Messi, because his goals were second only to Chu Zhongtian, but Chu Zhongtian did not participate in the selection of the best striker, and he could only choose one of the best striker and midfielder, and it was impossible to have the best striker and the best midfielder. But everyone knows that there is no top scorer in the Champions League, otherwise it must be Chu Zhongtian, ten goals, can't it say anything?

Messi was smiling when he came to the stage to win the award, but he stared at Chu Zhongtian intentionally or unintentionally. Although award presenter Inzaghi praised him as the number one player in world football today, he knew that the best striker should not have belonged to him...... In his heart, he has made up his mind to use his own efforts to win a dignified Champions League best striker award next season!

After Messi went down, it was the turn of the last heavyweight award - the best player award. This is the king of kings.

The award for the best player was not a retired star, but UEFA president Michel Platini himself.

He stood in front of the microphone with the trophy in his hand and said to everyone: "Actually, this award is not in suspense......

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, and even some people had already glanced at Chu Zhongtian. The TV broadcast even aimed a close-up shot at Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian in the camera is smiling and looking at Platini on the field.

'In the Champions League last season, we couldn't find anyone better and more radiant than him. So he deserves to be named the best player in the Champions League. After Platini finished speaking, Chu Zhongtian, who was sitting under the court, beckoned: "Congratulations, Chu!" ”

The applause rang out again, and Chu Zhongtian got up and hugged the people around him. On his way to the stage, people kept shaking hands with him and congratulating him.

After Chu Zhongtian came to power, the applause gradually subsided. He took his second trophy from Platini, looked down, then set it aside and gave his thank-you speech: "Suddenly I don't know what to say...... There are so many people to thank, I have already thanked you just now, and I will thank you again this time, thank you! Thank you to my teammates and coaches, thank you to my family, thank you to my agent, thank you. And, of course, thanks to Mr. Platini, who presented me with the award. He looked at Platini next to him and said, and everyone below laughed.

"I'm proud to be on such a stage." Chu Zhongtian raised the trophy again and waved. "I wish I could still be on a stage like this. I love being a winner, thank you! ”

When he stepped off the stage, there was thunderous applause. Although a little arrogant, he said what almost all professional players have in mind. Who doesn't love to be a winner?

After Duan Bin finished translating Chu Zhongtian's words, he sighed with emotion: "It's so good...... 'I like to be a winner', how confident, how proud!" Congratulations, Chu Zhongtian! ”
