PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

The draw for the 2012-2013 Champions League group stage was held in the ******** of Grimalti in Monaco, and this time the Champions League group stage once again drew the group of death - La Liga champion Real Madrid, Premier League champion Manchester City, Bundesliga champion Borussia Dortmund, and Eredivisie champion Ajax.

Without a doubt, this is the group that has talked about the most and attracted the most attention in the Champions League this season. As commented by major media outlets, before the game even started, it already smelled death!

Real Madrid was the top four team in the Champions League last season and has reached the semi-finals of the Champions League for two consecutive years; Among the second-tier teams, Manchester City is undoubtedly the strongest, the blue moon was eliminated in the Champions League group stage last season, the "tuition" has been paid, and this season is more mature; Juventus, Ajax, and Paris Saint-Germain in the third gear are all good teams; In the fourth gear, Dortmund is undoubtedly the standout. The probability of the birth of a group of death such as Real Madrid, Manchester City, Ajax, and Dortmund is indeed very small.

Last season's Champions League group stage, there was also a "group of death", when Bayern, Villarreal, Manchester City, Napoli four major league teams were divided into a group, and finally Bayern easily qualified, Napoli in Cavani, Ravich, Hamshik under the leadership of the big three reached the round of 16, the Champions League 64 years of Manchester City because of "too young" to pay tuition, Villarreal is 6 games lost all humiliation out. The smell of death is not actually strong, but Manchester City and Napoli are quite fierce in the fight for second place.

If you push the time forward by another year, look at the 2010 Champions League group draw, the group composed of Inter Milan, Bremen, Tottenham Hotspur and Twente is considered the "group of death"; In the group of AC Milan, Real Madrid, Ajax and Auxerre, the first two are outstanding. It's not too "dead".

The draw in 2009 was quite balanced, with Liverpool, Lyon, Fiorentina and Debrezen considered to be the most confusing group before the group stage, and the Reds were unfortunately eliminated in the end, and overall, the group of Real Madrid, Manchester City, Ajax and Dortmund in 2012 was the most brutal distribution in recent years.

Quite a few people think. The most terrifying "group of death" in the history of the Champions League is the Champions League Group D in the 98-99 season, when Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Barcelona, and Bronde scored together.

In the end, Bayern got 11 points from 6 games in the group stage, Manchester United 10 points, Barcelona was eliminated with 8 points, and Brondby also won one game, in that group stage. Countless classics: 3-3 for Manchester United and Barcelona, goals for the golden generation of Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes Beckham.

Manchester United and Bayern were also 2-2, and Sheringham made a last-minute own goal that stunned people; At Camp Nou, Barcelona and Manchester United were once again 3-3 winners...... In that year's Champions League final, Manchester United and Bayern fought for supremacy, which was also a classic. I believe that the older generation of fans will never forget the classic Champions League grouping and the final of that year.

Commenting on the group, Sky Sports believes Manchester City will face extremely difficult games. This is the group of La Liga, Premier League, Bundesliga, Eredivisie champions!

Real Madrid are nine Champions League winners and Ajax have won the Champions League four times in their history. Borussia Dortmund beat Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga title for the second year in a row, and Jurgen Klopp's side have gained a wealth of experience in the Champions League.

Of course, Manchester City is also strong enough, last season in the Premier League, the blue moon slaughtered Manchester United, defeated Chelsea, Liverpool. Breaking the BIG4 situation in the Premier League proves that this team is capable enough to carry the European banner of the Premier League.

When the results of the group stage draw came out, the famous bookmaker Bwin offered odds to win the championship, and Real Madrid's odds of 4.5 were the favorites second only to Barcelona in the group of death. Jose Mourinho's team also has the absolute strength to break through; Manchester City's odds to win the title have also reached 10.00, behind Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester United.

Two teams in a group are in the top 4 to win the title, which shows the degree of their deaths, and Dortmund is in 10th place at 26.00, with odds ahead of Milan, who is not afraid of the group of death? I'm afraid even Real Madrid has to be extremely cautious. Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund are not easy to mess with.

The draw for the group stage of the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League season has ended, and the final results of the three participating teams from the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, and Schalke can be described as mixed.

Last season's Champions League runner-up Bayern Munich can be said to have drawn a "sign", the Southern Star was divided into Group F, the strength of the three opponents in the same group has a certain gap with Bayern, and Schalke, the third runner-up of the Bundesliga who performed well in the European League last season, was divided into Group B, a group with more average strength, and the "miners" who are known for their momentum are expected to enter the knockout stage.

However, the defending champion of the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund, was placed in the group of death, and everyone was not optimistic that Dortmund could qualify from this cruel group of death.

In last season's Champions League group stage, Bayern were placed in a group with Napoli, Villarill, and Manchester City, which was known as the "group of small deaths" before the game, but in the group stage, Bayern was not tested and successfully qualified for the knockout stage by finishing first.

Although the team successfully qualified, but the strong Napoli still caused a lot of trouble for Bayern, the team's deputy Schweinsteiger was injured in the game, which also laid the groundwork for Bayern in the last minute of the successive routs on all fronts, this time drawing weaker opponents, Bayern is expected to maintain a complete squad after the group stage, to attack the Champions League trophy.

Two seasons ago, under the leadership of iron-blooded coach Magath and "Lord of the Rings" Raul, Schalke achieved excellent results in the Champions League, and the team reached the last four and achieved the best result in team history.

Although the team only finished 14th in the league, they still qualified for the Europa League by winning the cup.

In the Europa League, Schalke continued the team's excellent performance, consecutive victories, and finally the team reached the last 8, lost to Athletic Bilbao, the new season, Schalke returned to the Champions League, the team's style has been formed, in a group of close strength, as long as they show the hard work of the year, they can fully advance to the knockout stage.

Before the start of the season, Dortmund's senior management repeatedly stated that the team will no longer focus on the Bundesliga and give up European competition in the new season, and everyone can look forward to Dortmund's performance in the Champions League in the new season.
