In the UEFA Champions League, there is no player who does not regard participating in this competition and eventually winning the championship as the ultimate goal of his career, and the best clubs from all over Europe gather together to determine the king of Europe through a series of battles, and every minute and every second on the field is extraordinarily touching.

After the end of the Second Shijie War, there was a full revival of football within the Shijie, however, there were few exchanges between national teams and club-level competitions. At this time, the Frenchman Gabriel? Arnold came up with the idea of creating the European Club Cup.

Arnold, the founder of the European Footballer of the Year campaign and a contributor to the French newspapers La Liga and France Football, was keenly aware of the possibility of a new competition that would bring together the best clubs in Europe.

He proposed that a new tournament be created by famous clubs from various countries with a league system. The promoters of the European Club Cup actively contacted FIFA and UEFA, but the results were disappointing, with both organizations showing little interest in matches in which non-national teams participated. But Arnold's Jihua has been warmly welcomed by several clubs such as Real Madrid, Anderlecht, Rapid Vienna, as well as the Hungarian Football Association.

The newspaper commissioned a head of its editorial department. Riesvik organized a meeting attended by representatives of the major European clubs of the time to determine the format of the competition between European clubs.

Although UEFA reiterated at the Vienna Executive Committee meeting that it would not cooperate in any way with non-national team competitions, it did not prevent the associations from sending representatives to Paris.

At this historic meeting, the clubs agreed on the format: the tournament was contested by the champions of the national leagues; A home-and-away knockout format is adopted, with a play-off on a third-party pitch if both teams have the same number of points and goal difference; The final of the Champions Cup must be played on a pitch predetermined by UEFA; Ticket revenue, advertising fees and television broadcast fees are handled by the host country during the team's matches.

At this meeting, an executive committee was also set up, and the president of Real Madrid, Santiago? The Bernabeu is the first vice-chairman of the committee, which drafts the main points for the proposed European Club Cup and communicates them to FIFA for understanding.

UEFA's idea is to organise another cup to replace the UEFA Club Cup, which has been proposed by the newspaper and most of Europe's clubs. The contestants of this cup are not clubs, but cities, with the aim of bringing closer ties and sporting exchanges between European cities.

But the situation has changed the way FIFA think about the European Club Cup, and they see that the game is still like that, and the teams participating in the competition are of a higher standard.

On the other hand, the success of the first televised Shijie Cup in Switzerland in 1954 made it more likely that Eurovision would support the European Club Champions Cup, which meant expanding its influence and making money.

UEFA began to reconsider its approach to the European Club Cup, proposing to the tournament organisers that the power to organise the tournament be handed over to UEFA, and that the club's participation in the tournament must be approved by the host country's association.

After the proposed conditions were accepted, the UEFA Executive Committee met in Paris on 21 May 1955 and decided that UEFA would organize the tournament itself and that the tournament would be named the UEFA Club Champions Cup, instead of the original name "European Cup".

Prior to the 1991/1992 season, the format of the Champions Cup was a pure knockout round. This season, the group stage was set up in the round of eight. In the 1992/1993 season, the Champions Cup was officially renamed the UEFA Champions League, and the competition was played every Tuesday and Wednesday.

In the years that followed, the format of the Champions League changed repeatedly, gradually applying the round-robin format to the matches before the resumption, and the teams participating were no longer limited to the league champions of each country and the Champions League winners of last season, but also the league runners-up of some football powers. And all these changes are to increase the number of games so that the participating teams can get more benefits.

In 1998, in order to block the idea of a European Super League for major clubs, UEFA decided to carry out the biggest overhaul of Europe's three major cups from the 1999/2000 season, and the European Cup Winners' Cup was scrapped.

And according to the ranking of European club results, countries can send between 1 and 4 teams to participate in the Champions League. Another round of the group stage was added, and the first stage of the group stage consisted of 32 teams divided into 8 groups of 4 teams each, each playing 6 games.

The top two teams from the eight groups advance to the second stage of the group stage, with the third place advancing to the third round of the UEFA Cup. In the second group stage, the top 8 will advance to the knockout stage.

In the 2003/2004 season, the UEFA Champions League cancelled the second group stage, which means that after the round of 16, the knockout stage will be played until the winner is decided.

While winning great honors, participating in the European Champions Cup also means that you will get huge benefits, which is more real, money! There's no one who doesn't like it

Before the start of the 2005/2006 Champions League season, UEFA has already calculated that the upcoming income of the Champions League and UEFA Super Cup this season will reach a historic 1.3 billion euros.

Seventy-five per cent of the proceeds come from UEFA's media rights and commercial contracts, which can reach a maximum of €500 million, which will be distributed to the clubs.

At the same time, the remaining 25% will be used as a reserve fund for the development of European football, while ensuring UEFA's organizational and administrative expenses, as well as the fixed funds paid by UEFA to the member states' football associations, clubs and leagues.

Eighty-two per cent of the prize money beyond $500 million will be distributed to individual clubs, while another 18 per cent will be used for the development of European football and the UEFA purposes mentioned above by UEFA.

The play-off stage alone will generate €55 million. The 20 participating teams will receive a fixed prize fund of €2.1 million. After deducting the prize money that needs to be distributed to the participating teams in the play-off stage, the revenue from the Champions League and UEFA Super Cup is expected to reach 1.2 billion euros.

The revenues of the participating teams will be divided into two main parts, of which 500 million euros will be fixed income and the other 400 million euros will be flexible mechanism. The market share will be distributed according to the market share of the participating club's football association.

All 32 teams participating in the Champions League group stage this season will receive a minimum of €8.6 million in prize money. The winner received more than 30 million euros in prize money, not including the market share split.

In the group stage, 32 teams will receive a base prize of €8.6 million. Depending on the performance of the match, 1 million euros will be awarded for a win and 500,000 euros will be awarded for a draw.

The teams that advance to the round of 16 are expected to receive €3.5 million, the quarter-finals €3.9 million and the semi-finals €4.9 million. The winner received 10.5 million euros and the runner-up received 6.5 million euros.

As the winner of the domestic league, he will receive 200,000 euros if he fails to qualify for the group stage of the Champions League. In addition, teams participating in the first round of qualifiers will receive 150,000 euros if they fail to qualify for the group stage. At the same time, the teams that participate in the second round of qualifiers and do not make it to the group stage will receive 175,000 euros. The team eliminated in the third round of qualifying will receive 200,000 euros.

This huge profit is enough to stimulate all European teams to go crazy for the Champions League, which is also Weishenme in his previous life, when the Italian phone door time was exposed, Berlusconi did not hesitate to pull down his face and threaten the Italian Football Federation, if he could not ensure that AC Milan could participate in the 2006/2007 Champions League, his media group would not broadcast the Italian Serie A.

In the final analysis, it is still a matter of interests.

Deegan loves money, but he doesn't really care about it, he wants to play in the Champions League, and he just wants to prove himself on a bigger stage and let everyone know that he is the best on the pitch.

However, Carlo Ancelotti will not satisfy Digan's yearning for the Champions League, and the day before the game, when the squad for the second day was announced as usual, Digan was still excluded.

The goalkeeper is still Dida, his performance this season is very solid, the right-back is Cafu, after the last game was rested, this game will return to the starting position, the central defenders are Nesta and Maldini, Stam lost his starting position due to the poor performance in the last game, the left-back is Kaladze, Ancelotti's conservative mistake is again, and he did not choose Serginho, who performed well in the last game against Siena, but chose to be more outstanding defensively, But the Georgians who are in poor form, it can be seen that Ancelotti's rotation remarks are simply farting, in the midfield position, Gattuso returned to the starting position, and he was partnered with Pirlo, and Ambrosini, in the forward position, Ancelotti chose Kaka, Shevchenko on the forward line is a well-deserved main force, but his partner was beyond everyone's expectations, Vieri, who did not get a minute of game time in the previous game, actually entered the starting lineup.

Not to mention Degan, even Vieri was slightly stunned when he heard that he had entered the starting lineup, he didn't get a minute of playing time in the league before, and now he is going to play in the Champions League, and he is still starting?

Could it be that good steel is not used on the blade?

Vieri thought shamelessly, and then there was an even more shameful orgasm!
