78. One in five chances

In a Champions League group stage with no wins, Liverpool defeated French powerhouse Marseille by a dead goal and finally entered the last 16 of the Champions League. The match was talked about by a lot of media outlets, who thought Liverpool had once again created a miracle. Liverpool was "blown into" as a model of good playing against the wind.

Indeed, Liverpool were able to win three games in a row with just one point from their first three games in the group stage and squeeze into the last 16 of the Champions League, completing a difficult task.

From this point of view, the Liverpool team is good at playing against the wind and has created a miracle. If Liverpool were a small team with no name, then its counterattack was a classic and a miracle. But as a European giant, facing three second-rate European teams, Marseille, Besiktas and Porto, Liverpool was beaten in the first three games, and it also "created a miracle".

This is a quote from a report by Portugal's Lisbon Sport newspaper, and it is clear from their report that they do not quite agree with the hype of their media peers, Liverpool, who think that it is a big joke to describe Liverpool as "a miracle".

In their opinion, there is no need for Liverpool to make such a mess of themselves. Also in the Premier League, Manchester United and Arsenal both qualified for the group one round earlier, showing the demeanor of a first-class team. Compared with Manchester United's Arsenal team, Liverpool is simply many notches behind.

And Lisbon Sport also looked down on Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez, saying in the article: "Liverpool manager Benitez should learn from Ferguson and Arsene Wenger and learn how to play when they have a good hand." In the three years that Benitez has been in charge of Liverpool, Liverpool have not become a real powerhouse. ”

Lisbon Sport also says that Liverpool's American boss is quite right and that he should send Benitez away as soon as possible and not let him stay at Anfield. Anfield has more options, Liverpool's squad is not bad, it can be regarded as a good hand, and with another manager, Liverpool will definitely return to the list of giants.

Lisbon Sport seems to have a deep grudge against Benitez, who they call him worthless and support Liverpool's American boss to replace him as soon as possible.

They said in the article: The performance of the group stage first and then the performance is actually a true portrayal of the strength of the Liverpool team in recent years, that is, the team's performance is very unstable. Head coach Rafael Benitez's "rotation system" is to blame. He stubbornly rotated players who were in good form and slowly lost the feeling of scoring.

Since the creation of the Premier League in 1992, Liverpool, who dominated European football in the seventies and eighties of the last century, have yet to taste the title. Getting out of a weak Champions League group is no miracle. If Benitez really has what it takes to get Liverpool to lift the Premier League trophy next June, it will be a miracle.

Yes, there are two sides to a coin, as is the perception of one thing. Some people praise Liverpool and praise Benitez; There are also those who belittle Liverpool and criticize Benitez.

The Lisbon Sport newspaper may seem extreme, but it is not without reason. Some of them are quite true.

In the face of teams like Porto, Marseille and Betaxis, Liverpool should easily defeat them and qualify early, but Liverpool did not, but only scored one point in the first three rounds, which broke everyone's eyes.

Such a situation is completely caused by the Liverpudlians themselves, Zuihou's three consecutive wins in three rounds seem to be a miracle, but in fact it should be reasonable, if such opponents cannot be defeated, then what is Liverpool talking about revival? What else are you talking about?

There is also the right side to say that Benitez is also correct, Liverpool is too unstable, without the stability of giants such as Manchester United and Arsenal, which is Liverpool's hard injury.

The game is over, and the media and fans are talking endlessly about Liverpool, and they are all talking around Liverpool.

Of course, there is another aspect of Qiu Ze, they are also discussing around Qiu Ze, Qiu Ze's performance is really beyond their expectations, this guy's entry is simply shocking everyone, and Liverpool fans are excited.

However, Liverpool fans are also worried, and that's because there are really too many rumors about Qiu Ze's transfer now. Although they didn't believe that Qiu Ze would leave, but it was rumored that they were also very nervous, and they all hoped that Qiu Ze would stay and not leave.

At this time, Qiu Ze did not think about this problem at all, and now Qiu Ze is thinking about the draw ceremony for the round of 16 of this season's Champions League, and they are thinking about who Liverpool's opponent will be.

At this time, the group stage of this season's UEFA Champions League has come to an end, and the team that should reach the round of 16 has been born.

The two teams that qualified for Group A are Porto and Liverpool, with Porto winning three wins, two draws and one loss accumulating 11 points and topping the group. Liverpool has three wins, one draw and two losses, accumulating 10 points, and is second in the group.

The two teams that qualified from Group B were Chelsea and Schalke 04, with Chelsea winning three and drawing three to top the group with 12 points. Schalke 04 has two wins, two draws and two losses, accumulating eight points and ranking second in the group.

The two teams that qualified for Group C are Real Madrid and Olympiacos, with Real Madrid winning three wins, two draws and one loss accumulating 11 points and topping the group. Olympiacos has three wins, two draws and one loss, accumulating 11 points and finishing second in the group. The reason for the low goal difference is only.

The two teams that qualified from Group D are AC Milan and Celtic, with AC Milan winning 13 points with four wins, one draw and one loss, and topping the group. Celtic have nine points from three wins and three losses, and are second in the group.

The two teams in Group E are Barcelona and Lyon, with Barcelona winning four and drawing two to remain unbeaten and accumulate 14 points and top the group. Lyon won three wins, one draw and two losses, accumulating 10 points and finishing second in the group.

The two teams that qualified from Group F are Manchester United and Roma, with Manchester United remaining unbeaten with five wins and one draw and accumulating 16 points. Roma have three wins, two draws and one loss, accumulating 11 points and ranking second in the group.

The two teams in Group G are Inter Milan and Fenerbahce, with Inter Milan winning five and losing one with 15 points and topping the group. Fenerbahce has three wins, two draws and one loss, accumulating 11 points and finishing second in the group.

The two teams that qualified from Group H, Sevilla and Arsenal, Sevilla won five wins and one loss with 15 points, and won the group. Arsenal have 13 points from four wins, one draw and one loss, and are second in the group.

The Champions League round of 16 was born, of which all four teams in the Premier League advanced to the round of 16, Italy had three teams to the round of 16, Spain had 30 teams to the round of 16, one in the Bundesliga advanced to the round of 16, one in the Portuguese Super League advanced to the round of 16, one in the Turkish Super League advanced to the round of 16, one in Greece advanced to the round of 16, one in Scotland, and one in France advanced to the round of 16.

Among them, the Premier League team is the big winner, they even advanced to the round of 16 with four limbs, and they didn't have so many last time. Last time Portugal won the league, Benfica Porto advanced to the round of 16.

Neither Sporting Lisbon nor Benfica have advanced to the round of 16 this season, and it is a pity that Benfica, who have qualified for the quarterfinals of the Champions League for two consecutive seasons, did not advance to the round of 16. At this time, Benfica fans began to miss Qiu Ze.

Benfica have only seven points from their group stage this season and have missed out on the last 16 of the Champions League, as they are two points behind Celtic and have failed to progress to the round of 16.

The teams in the round of 16 are all entangled, and it is time for the draw ceremony for the round of 16 of the Champions League. After the game, the Liverpool players returned to Liverpool because they still have games to play at the weekend, and they have to go back early to prepare for the tough game against Manchester United.

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez went to Nyon, Switzerland, to attend the draw for the last 16 of the Champions League.

The draw for the 2007-2008 Champions League round of 16 was held last night at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

The rules of this draw ceremony are that the first and second teams in this group will be avoided by the same team as the team under the Football Association, and then the other groups will be drawn first and second in the group.

This season, Liverpool are second in the group, and they will play one of the teams that are the top team in the group, but they have avoided Manchester United and Chelsea, who are also with the Football Association, and Liverpool have not many opponents left.

Take a look, their opponents are Real Madrid, Inter Milan, AC Milan, Barcelona, Sevilla, choose one of the five. Of course, if Liverpool were to choose for themselves, they would definitely choose Sevilla, because Sevilla are clearly weaker than the other four opponents.

However, this is obviously not Liverpool's own choice, one in five chances is a good sign, four out of five chances is a sign, Liverpool's round of 16 knockout rounds are not very good.

Liverpool fans are very nervous at this time, and they all hope that Liverpool can draw Sevilla, which is the most haode signing. But they all know that the opportunity will not be too big, and they are very nervous at this time, so nervous that they can't do it.

Of course, Liverpool's manager Rafael Benitez was also very nervous. By this time, he was very sorry that Weishenme would have made so many mistakes in the group stage, and if Liverpool could win the group, then the situation would be much better.

What a pity! At this time, there is no if, let alone never, Benitez can only swallow the bitter fruit of his own creation. He is now waiting for the verdict of the goddess of fate, and the same Liverpool players are waiting for the verdict of the goddess of fate.

The whole draw ceremony was tense and there was no smile on the face of the head coach of each team, which was really tense. Even the managers who finished first in the group did not dare to say that it was easy at this time, because the quality of the other teams in the second group was good, and they were equally nervous.

Look at the best of the second place in the group? Needless to say, the two giants from the Premier League, Liverpool and Arsenal, the team that won the group did not want to draw these two opponents, these two opponents are too difficult.
