After the group draw ended, the eyes of the reporters on the scene became dim, because compared to the previous two seasons, this season's group draw is clear and weak, if nothing else, the sixteen teams that qualify will be in the pocket of the European giants, which means that this season's Champions League will be missing a lot of highlights.

The UEFA Super Cup was the second night of the Champions League group stage draw, but the conversation was not about the game, but about Elo's speech after winning the Champions League striker and player of the year for three consecutive seasons, and he vowed to win the Champions League for the third consecutive season with Chelsea.

It's just that many media and experts don't agree with his views.

They believe that a big reason why Chelsea were able to defend the Champions League last season was that Cristiano Ronaldo was injured and lacking in the final of the Champions League, and if he had been in excellent form in the first three rounds of the league last season, then it was really uncertain who won the Champions League last season.

Messi is more mature in Barcelona this season, and the arrival of Ibrahimovic is sure to give the team a big boost, while Real Madrid made a number of signings in the summer transfer market before the start of the season, and their strength should not be underestimated.

Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich have also made a lot of additions to the team's lineup, and also have the strength to challenge for the Champions League title.

In other words, compared to last season's Chelsea, this season's Champions League will usher in a hundred flowers.

Therefore, after the draw ceremony, many managers of big clubs criticised Elo's statement, and they all thought that Elo's Champions League winner who scored a Chelsea hat-trick in this situation lacked respect for other big clubs.

And this view has also been recognized by many media.

Of course, their endorsement is not a complete acknowledgment of the statements of these clubs, but that Chelsea's back-to-back Champions League titles will not attract more attention, and human beings always need freshness, otherwise life will become boring, and the same is true for Champions League winners.

However, the London media agreed with Iello's remarks, believing that it represented the professionalism of professional footballers, just like a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and it is commendable to have this ambition despite winning three European Champions Cups in a row!

Because many professional players in modern football begin to neglect training and games after winning even one Champions League title, the best example is Barcelona's former No. 10 Ronaldinho, after Barcelona won the Champions League in the 2005-2006 season, Ronaldinho did not take training seriously and gradually lost his shape.

In the second leg of the league match between Valencia and Barcelona in the 2006-2007 season, the media showed the comparison of the body of Aiello and Ronaldinho exchanging jerseys, Ronaldinho's figure in the 2006-2007 season was obviously fatter than in the 2005-2006 season, and the eight-pack abs have a tendency to converge into two.

Mourinho expressed solidarity with Iroh in an interview with reporters, saying: "Those voices against Ai are living jealousy, if your team had the chance to win the Champions League three seasons in a row, would you give up that opportunity? No! It's like grapes that can't be eaten always feel sour!! This season's Chelsea will be a strong contender for the Champions League title this season. ”

Of course, Mourinho was also skillful when he said it, and he didn't say that he must win the Champions League as he said last season, but only that he would become a strong contender for the Champions League title.

Then the three major European bookmakers gave the Champions League odds for the new season, Chelsea is still at the top of the list, and the top scorer is also led by Elloh, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are second and third respectively.

The 2009-2010 UEFA Super Cup season kicks off at 8.45pm on the 28th, with Chelsea taking on Shakhtar Donetsk.

There has been no head-to-head meeting between the two teams in their history, and this is the first meeting between the two teams, but it is still familiar to Elo, who was in a group the season when Valencia won the Champions League.

Shakhtar Donetsk's tactical choice in the UEFA Super Cup is to defend and counterattack with weak and strong players, but as the game progresses, Shakhtar Donetsk has changed from defending and counter-attacking to only defending and not counterattacking, hoping to drag the game into a penalty shootout.

However, as Chelsea's star of the game, Iroh did not allow it, and he scored directly from a pinpoint free-kick in the second half.

In the end, thanks to Elo's personal performance, Chelsea defeated Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 at the Louis II Stadium and successfully defended the UEFA Super Cup!

With Chelsea winning the UEFA Super Cup, everyone forgot about their 3-1 defeat to Manchester United in the Community Shield, and instead looked forward to how many titles they would win in the new season.

At the weekend, Chelsea host fourth-round opponents at home to Burnley, who have just been promoted to the Premier League, and have been identified as the new season's point boys, the legendary team who have taken the elevator to soak up the atmosphere.

Before the start of the match, Elo, Cech and John Terry showed off their newly won trophies.

Chelsea beat Burnley 4-0 thanks to Elloh's goals and assists, cheered on by 40,000 Chelsea fans, but what worried Chelsea fans was that Burnley striker McDonald had chopped his ankle before full-time.

Although there was no major problem under the team doctor's examination, Mourinho replaced him with teenager Suarez to be on the safe side.

After the game, Mourinho naturally complained that Chelsea had the security of the trophy in the past two seasons, which was inseparable from Elo's lack of injury, and it could even be said that Chelsea's championship was brought by Elo.

In this case, how can Mourinho allow his opponent to hurt Eiro?

Especially after watching the slow-motion replay, if it weren't for Iro's high-speed continuous circle buffering action in advance, it is estimated that he would have recuperated for more than three months.

But Burnley's McDonald didn't seem to care in his post-match interview, saying that the Premier League is the most competitive and physically contested league in the world, and that this tackle is the most common way, and that he didn't hurt anyone, so he refused to apologize.

Thereupon...... Chelsea supporters have used the newly emerging Twitter platform in Europe to insult McDonald as an executioner, but to their dismay, McDonald has yet to apply for a Twitter account.

After the fourth round of the Premier League, there will be an international break, and there will be no league until the 12th.

The Chinese XX Football Association did not arrange a warm-up match for the national team, so Iello went to the small town of Malaga, Spain, Mijas to see the junior brothers of the national youth team, who had a warm-up match with the Spanish U20 national youth team before the World Youth Championships.

Since they both entered the top 24 of the World Youth Championships, they are also willing to fight hard before the start of the World Youth Championships.

Before the warm-up match began, Iello was invited by officials of the two football associations to appear at the kick-off ceremony.

The game was very exciting, because the head coach of the Chinese national youth team is also Spanish, both teams play ground football, which is very watching, and there are many fans who come to the scene to watch the game.

The number one person in the world in today's football, no matter how powerful he is, is still imprinted with the outstanding works of Spanish youth training, especially the local fans in Valencia, and there are many of them.

In the end, the Chinese national youth team defeated the Spanish national youth team 2:1.

However, the biggest reason for the victory is not that the overall strength of the Chinese national youth team is superior, but that Spain's famous wing plug in the attacking Jordi Alba and Azpilicueta were completely suppressed by the two full-backs of the Chinese national youth team, Jiang Zhipeng and Zhang Linpeng, and finally Wu Xi's key back insertion was the final word.

After the competition, Iro, as the big brother, also went over to cheer for the younger brothers, hoping that they would make persistent efforts and perform well in the upcoming World Youth Championships and strive to win medals!

Brazil and Ghana became the first teams from South America and Africa to qualify for next year's World Cup in South Africa during the international break in early September, while England and Spain were the first and second teams in Europe to qualify, with the remaining direct qualifiers waiting until the next international break, the final round of World Cup qualifiers on all continents.

At the end of the international break, the players who have played for their national teams have returned to their respective clubs to prepare for the upcoming league fixtures, with Chelsea taking on Stoke City away at home.

Mourinho for the sake of insurance, the players who participated in the national team's vicious game basically sat on the bench, and the starting lineup dominated by Ailo did not necessarily suffer in the game, after all, the gap between big clubs and small clubs is still very obvious.

But what they didn't expect was that the home team would use ferocious defense to limit Chelsea's attack at the beginning!

However, the prolonged foul also led to a lot of yellow cards for their players, which means that if this situation continues, there is a good chance that Stoke City's team will be sent off.

Among them, Shawcross, a defender from Manchester United's academy, was the most dangerous, in the 65th minute of the first half, he tackled Elo's right ankle from the side very ugly, but fortunately there was no big disaster, and the referee also opened the net, only giving him a yellow card + warning.

With the slow-motion replay, Zhan Jun, who was in charge of the on-site commentary, gasped: "Oh my God, did Shawcross from Manchester United treat Iroh as a father killer?" This is a desperate flying shovel foul, and I build that the FA must punish this kind of action severely! ”

Although Iello was not tackled, the rest of the game looked cautious and his form slipped and Chelsea could have picked up a draw on the road had it not been for Didier Drogba's late winner.
