Grimaldi Convention Center, North Gate.

The reporters were staring at the end of the street.

Security personnel lined up in two lines and stood outside the cordon.

Two commercial vehicles with the Champions League logo are speeding in!

The crowd began to stir!

“Messi！！！”

“Cristiano！！！”

“Ibrahimovi！！！”

Security personnel were on alert.

Business vehicles are parked on the side of the road.

Griezmann and Simeone step on the carpet.

The height and size of the two look like two fathers and sons.

The restless crowd instantly regained its calm, mixed with sighs of disappointment.

Some of the fans almost didn't boo!

Since Simeone took over Atletico Madrid in December 2011, European football has a strong team that people "love and hate"!

Those who like it will be obsessed with his iron-blooded defense.

Nasty people, will be disgusted by his dirty robbery.

Diego Costa was once a figure.

With the exception of Atletico's striker, no one could afford to allow Real Madrid's backline to receive a yellow card in one half.

Needless to say, Griezmann, who has risen to prominence in recent years.

Although the style of the ball is not so dirty, it is too confused in life, and is often used as a fool by some organizations, and social accounts will always make irrational remarks.

As a result, he was disgusted by many fans all over the world.

Simeone touched his big back, raised his hand with the fans, ignored the media reporters, and strode towards the car behind him.

"Lee! Mr. Worrall! Mr. Topp! Let's meet again! ”

The Atletico coach looked like a gentleman at this time, and he was about to say something to Li Kang again, but was stopped by Old Man Topp.

Griezmann's expression was a little surprised: his own coach is a very arrogant person, and no matter how big a star is, he will not be so active and enthusiastic!

Simone's expression didn't change much, he nodded, and smiled politely: "See you later!" My friends! ”

With that, turn and leave.

Old man Toph sighed: "Last season, Bayer Leverkusen was eliminated by Atletico Madrid!" ”

"I don't want to face such a tough opponent in the round of 16."

Worrall smiled: "Hold on, take a few steps late, and the scene will be embarrassing." ”

Everyone walks on the red carpet, who is not popular, who is embarrassed.

The fan base takes years to cultivate.

Although Li Kang's performance at the Camp Nou was impressive, it still takes time for the highlights to spread.

In the distance, a row of commercial vehicles was speeding by.

As soon as Li Kang stepped into the conference center, he heard a series of crazy shouts behind him.

Didn't stop to look back.

The receptionist greeted him warmly.

led the Bayer Leverkusen trio to the venue.

The rules for the draw for the round of 16 are briefly summarized as follows:

1. Group 1 vs. Group 2;

Bayer Leverkusen, for example, will not draw Real Madrid, who are also top of the group.

2. The teams of the same group and association will not meet;

For example, Bayer Leverkusen will not face Wolfsburg, who are also in the Bundesliga, nor will they face Barcelona in the same group

3. Home and away two-legged knockout format.

For example, Bayer Leverkusen drew Juventus, then they have to play one round at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, and then one round at the Bayer Arena, if the aggregate score of the two legs is tied, then the away goals will be counted, and if the away goals are tied, then extra-time will not be decided, then the final penalty shootout.

Enter the venue.

Worrall took Li Kang's mobile phone, turned it to silent, put it in his briefcase, and then made the gesture of "call when you are done", and walked to the club representative table with the old man Top.

Li Kang took the number plate and found his seat.

This time it's the first row?

The uncle next to him, why is it a little familiar?

It turned out to be Buffon.

Last season's Champions League runners-up - Juventus's goalkeeper.

"Lee, I've heard Morata mention you."

Buffon did not show a warm attitude, but smiled kindly.

Between words.

There was a cacophony behind him, and the magnesium lights flickered wildly!

The two turned around.

It's Cristiano Ronaldo.

He kept a smile in front of the camera and walked to the front row of the players' representative box.

Coincidentally.

His seat was also next to Li Kang's.

There were no pleasantries.

Ronaldo restrained his smile, his face returned to coldness, and he nodded calmly, even if he had said hello.

Buffon suggested: "Lee, if you were more enthusiastic, he wouldn't be so cool!" ”

The corners of Ronaldo's mouth twitched.

The number of people entering the venue is increasing.

Li Kang saw David Silva, Eden Hazard, Ibrahimovic, Sanchez and a group of famous managers on the club's representative table.

The Champions League theme song came to an abrupt halt.

Master of ceremonies Pedro Pinto wore a purple suit and ran to the main stage!

He said a set of things in a hurry.

The crowd was not interested, and the scattered applause seemed to expel him from the stage quickly.

A moment later.

The lights dimmed.

Several staff members carried two large tables and quickly set up the field.

When the lights come back on.

A young woman, holding two clear glass jars, each containing eight miniature footballs, walks slowly to the main stage.

Li Kang felt that she was a little familiar.

It was the female partner of the Koenigsegg sports car advertisement - Easley.

Buffon suddenly sighed: "Her mother was very beautiful when she was young, did she watch that "Romeo and Juliet"? That's it, the age difference between the two of us is twenty years! ”

Li Kang nodded earnestly, and he decided to go back to the club and take a look.

Easley put down the glass jar, looked at the players' representative box, smiled, and left the field from the side backstage.

Buffon raised his elbow and pushed Li Kang on the ground, and said with a smile: "That little girl is looking at you, it's so good to be young!" ”

Followed by.

Two veteran UEFA officials came to the stage to speak for a long time.

It's like a lullaby.

Let the crowd fall asleep.

After a long time.

Two tall figures appeared on the main stage!

Break the dull atmosphere.

Let the atmosphere of the lottery ceremony reach its climax!

Thunderous applause!

Kaka!

Henry!

The two are the guests of the lottery ceremony for the top 16!

"The lottery ceremony is about to begin!"

Coach representative seat.

Old man Toph couldn't help but get nervous, adjusted his sitting posture a few times, and began to pray in his heart: Give me a Porto or Zenit! There are only these two soft eggplants in the second group!

The managers of Porto and Zenit have similar ideas.

Mourinho's expression was solemn.

Arsene Wenger's smile was brighter than ever.

Pep Guardiola kept writing and drawing on scratch paper, staying out of the way.

Enrique is confident.

Simeone jumped for the shot.

What about Real Madrid's manager? Benitez had a bitter look on his face, and his troubles came from off the pitch.

The draw ceremony officially began.

Kaka didn't linger for long.

AC Milan have not made it to the Champions League this season.

The strength of Real Madrid is similar to that of anyone.

There is no psychological pressure.

He reached out and pulled out a small ball and broke it hard!

Unfold the note inside and point it at the camera.

"Eindhoven!"

The other side.

Henry's pressure was greater.

Also take out a small ball and break it open!

"Barcelona!"

"The first match is out: PSV Eindhoven vs Barca!"

Someone is sad.

Some rejoice.

The soft eggplant that was the first in the group was pinched by Barcelona!

PSV Eindhoven coach Cocu, shook his head helplessly, who would have thought that he would fight for the first place in the group and meet Barcelona!

Enrique's expression was restrained, and he deliberately pretended to be embarrassed.

Can't laugh.

To laugh is to disrespect the opponent.

Unless you can't help it.

Live room.

Barrage flies.

-

[There is no suspense in this game, the value of the whole Eindhoven team is not as good as Neymar's half a leg! ] 】

-

[Barcelona is stable, as long as it doesn't rain anymore at Camp Nou. Even if it rains, you can win! 】

-

[Poor Ehs, I won't see them rise in my lifetime!] 】

-

[If it's Ajax, it's hard to say. 】

Henry's mood was mixed.

He and Arsene Wenger are like father and son, and together they have created the myth of unbeaten in the Premier League.

It's a pity that he has twice helped Arsenal draw out Barcelona.

This year, I have to draw one

As the mini-soccer balls are broken one by one.

The results of the Champions League round of 16 are out one by one.

"Lyon vs. Atletico Madrid!"

"Man City v Porto!"

At this time.

Simeone's expression was slightly regretful, this season's Atletico Madrid, no one is afraid.

Old man Top's legs trembled with nervousness!

There's still a lot of hard bones that haven't been sucked away!

In case of Juventus or Paris Saint-Germain

When the results of the fourth draw are out.

The audience was in an uproar.

"Chelsea against Paris Saint-Germain!"

Mourinho frowned.

Blanco smiled.

-

[I announce, the quarterfinals or semifinals of the Champions League, staged in advance!] 】

-

[The Paris coach laughs more ugly than crying! ] 】

-

[Mars hits the Earth!] 】

-

[I also want to watch Li Mingdeng vs. Ibrahimovic vs. Fabregas, it seems that this season can't fulfill these two wishes at the same time!] 】

The draw ceremony did not stall for long.

Kaka continued to break the ball.

"Real Madrid!"

Henry chuckled inwardly.

He looked at Wenger from afar.

The pilot shot happened to give two people close-up.

King of Highbury, take a deep breath, resolutely pull out the ball, and break it with all your might!

"Wolfsburg!"

"The results of the fifth matchup are in!"

Players' Representative's Bench.

Buffon whispered: "There is a high probability that we will meet!" There are many things to do in Milan. When the time comes."

Li Kang smiled and nodded.

Main Stage.

Kaka shows a new note.

"Bayer Leverkusen!"

Henry lifted his spirits and dug hard!

Syllable!

"Arsenal!"

"The results of the sixth matchup are in!"

Henry looked at Wenger again with a delighted gaze.

But I saw that there was a trace of bitterness on the teacher's face!

What's going on?

Is Bayer Leverkusen still bad?

They were able to beat Camp Nou because it was raining!

Live room.

Barrage flies.

-

[It's up to you, Henry!] Good sign! 】

-

[In the past ten years, the probability of Arsenal and Barcelona meeting in the Champions League is as high as 80%, and this season, the curse of sixteen years is about to be broken! 】

-

[From the perspective of overall strength, it is difficult for Bayer Leverkusen to win against Arsenal, unless Li Mingdeng calls for wind and rain again! ] 】

-

[Are you kidding? Can Cech pick up heavy artillery with one hand? 】

Old man Toph breathed a sigh of relief.

The result of this matchup is better than drawing Juventus, although it is a little stronger.

As long as there are no injuries in the Arsenal squad, the fighting power is extremely terrifying.

Sanchez up front, Cazorla in midfield, Cech in the goal.

What's more, there is also a real British star on the bench - Wilshere.

The results of the next matchups.

All baked.

"Benfica against Juventus!"

"Bayern vs. Zenit!"

Several UEFA officials took the pitch to speak for half an hour.

The draw ceremony for the round of 16 has just ended.

When leaving.

Buffon grabbed Li Kang's shoulders and said, "Your two grandfathers still have to be interviewed by reporters!" I'll take you to rest! ”

Ronaldo was about to leave the field, hesitated for a moment, and said to Li Kang: "He just took you to the rest area." ”

Gianluigi Buffon played in the Champions League for the first time in 1997.

The partners of the annual lottery ceremony have changed batch after batch, and most of them have become special guests like Kaka and Henry.

The only familiar faces are Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi.

He easily took Li Kang to the rest area and introduced him to the player representatives of the giants.

Zenit's Hulk with a proud expression.

Chelsea's Eden Hazard is looking at Hamburg in Nabuffy.

Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez, sitting in the corner in a daze.

Manchester City's David Silva is lying on his back on the couch playing a mobile game.

The stars weren't very impressed with Bayer Leverkusen's No.10.

Ronaldo and Messi don't have time to come to the rest area, and they still have to be interviewed by reporters.

Ibrahimovic is also the darling of the media, and his speech is traffic.

The scene of the press conference of the lottery ceremony.

Arsene Wenger was surrounded by French journalists.

He was a household name in Ligue 1 at a young age, and after becoming a coach, he pushed for the reform of the French academy.

In the late eighties of the last century, he brought a little black egg from Africa back to Ligue 1.

That little black egg is George Weah!

The man who walked from CTV5 to CTV1!

"Mr. Wenger! In the 1/8 knockout round of this year's Champions League, you have not met Barcelona or Bayern, and you are confident of breaking into the last four of the Champions League? ”

"Are you feeling better? It's cooled down lately! Wear more! ”

"The zipper is broken!"

French journalists gradually became concerned about the physical condition of the legend of the feat.

The media from other countries focused on Mourinho and Blanco.

The strong dialogue between Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain is the hottest traffic!

It can be called the Champions League showdown in advance!

Enrique was also surrounded by journalists.

The face is ruddy and high-spirited.

"Barça's goal is to defend the title!"

"Losing to Bayer Leverkusen, it was just an accident! A defeat in the group stage is nothing! Barcelona are still dominant in Europe! ”

'If they can beat Arsenal, there's a good chance we'll play again! I'm looking forward to it! ”

"Li Kang returns to Barcelona? Bayer Leverkusen won't let him go during the winter break! But it doesn't matter, we will recall Dennis Jr. from Villarreal! He will inherit Xavi's number 6 shirt! ”

Cruyff returned to Amsterdam to recuperate.

Barça's PR efforts in Catalan are very strong.

Just triumph all the way to the Champions League!

What 1 million euros, what La Masia 4 position

All kinds of messy voices will be covered by the battle record!

Li Kang didn't get lost this time.

Soon they met up with Worrall and Old Man Toph at the north gate of the convention center.

'I've called Dino and the coaching staff is now looking at how to deal with Arsenal!'

"Why don't you have an artificial rain at the Bayer Arena? It doesn't cost much! ”

"The method of spreading sand is more cost-effective!"
