Chapter 1524

The chat between Liu Feng and some of Piacenza's old friends didn't last long. When the last team to participate in the lottery arrived, the host in charge of the lottery came to the stage.

Patting the shoulder of Wu Lei who was standing next to him, Liu Feng turned and walked towards the left side of the first row where the Arsenal team sat.

As winners of two consecutive Champions League titles, their position has not changed for two consecutive years. It is the position that the media takes the most care of and attracts the most attention.

The hosts Pinto and Veniger stood on time at the Grimaldi Conference Center and introduced the draw ceremony and the awarding process of the best player in Europe to the audience present and the audience in front of the TV.

Yes, since the merger, there are no separate awards for the Ballon d'Or and International Footballer of the Year, and UEFA officials have played against each other again.

Since last year, they have set up a new European best player award to match the FIFA goal award. The award is naturally for players who performed well in European football last season.

The selection of the best player in Europe, where world football is the most developed, is strong enough to compete for the FIFA Ballon d'Or. However, if votes from other national teams are included, it is still possible that two awards may not be won by the same person.

The award ceremony for this award was arranged after the draw ceremony, but in fact, due to Liu Feng's performance in leading the Gunners to defend the Champions League and league awards last season, people know that there is not much suspense.

Therefore, more people still focus on the lottery. After all, it is more necessary to know who their opponent is in the group stage than to pay attention to an award that has nothing to do with them.

Soon, last season's UEFA Champions League champions, Arsenal, went all the way to capture the flag and finally defended the Champions League. The highlights were played on the screen, and the other teams present gave applause.

Regardless of whether it is a team that was convinced and eliminated by the Gunners, or a team that regretted losing and wanted to try to encounter the Gunners again for revenge, at this moment, we have to admit that Arsenal has indeed accomplished an achievement that many teams find difficult to achieve.

Subsequently, the guest of the draw ceremony, the famous Manchester United star Dennis Law, stepped onto the draw stage, and then he will be the drawer for this season's draw throughout the whole process.

On the screen behind Dennis Law, the list of seeded teams for the UEFA Champions League this season was first announced. The Champions League points itself is far ahead, and Arsenal, which has won two consecutive Champions League titles in the last two seasons, is naturally announced as the first seeded team.

Then followed by the Gunners were Barcelona, ​​Manchester United and Real Madrid and other top giants. To put it bluntly, they are still the leaders of the major leagues.

Then, with the announcement of the positions of all participating teams, the draw will officially begin.

The first draw started directly, and Dennis Law drew last season's La Liga champion Real Madrid. After Real Madrid's name was announced, Liu Feng looked at the area where the Real Madrid players were, but regretfully did not see Kaka.

However, according to the news he has seen recently, Kaka's return to the team seems to have caused a commotion among the Real Madrid team doctors. After conducting various tests on his body, the Real Madrid medical room announced that Kaka has initially recovered.

Now, the Son of God, who may reappear in the eyes of the fans at any time, although he did not play in the first few games of the league, should be training at Real Madrid's training base to find the feeling of the game.

"Real Madrid, Group D. Then, the next team—Arsenal~"

Immediately after the name of his own team was heard, Liu Feng's attention was quickly drawn back, and then he saw that Arsenal's name had been drawn to Group B.

The next thing to pay attention to is naturally the opponents the team will encounter in the group stage. Among the other blocking teams this time, there are still many top teams that have not been able to enter the seeding team due to poor points in the Champions League in recent years.

However, the luck of the Gunners this season seems to be much better than that of the last two seasons. When the Schalke 04 team, which can only be ranked in the middle of the second tier, appeared in Group B, it seemed that the Gunners were destined to usher in their best lottery tonight.

Last season's group opponent Olympiacos appeared in the third position. This opponent Arsenal can be said to have won the two games with ease, and there is no difficulty.

However, in the draw for the fourth-tier teams, their luck can only be said to be mediocre. Just last season, the Montpellier team, which won the Ligue [-] championship for the first time in team history, appeared in Group B.

It is definitely something that this team can finally win the cup under the blockade of traditional Ligue [-] teams such as Paris Saint-Germain and Lille, which have already settled in with a large amount of gold dollars. It is also attracting attention as a possible dark horse this season.

However, it is unrealistic to say that such a team that has not even had a big star in the newly-emerged team can pose much threat to the Gunners' promotion.

Compared with Montpellier, Schalke 04, who are in the same group as the Gunners, looks like a team that can really send the Gunners to a defeat in the Champions League.

When Wenger saw the names of all his opponents in the group stage this season, his body slowly relaxed. Compared with the death group formed with Marseille and Dortmund last season, this year's draw is really the best.

And then, the new death group of this season was also born. The D where Real Madrid was in was subsequently drawn into the three strong teams of Manchester City, Ajax, and Dortmund.

Just by the name, it can be seen how tight the promotion quota of this group will be. Almost no one dares to pat their chests and guarantee that they will definitely advance.

When the roster of the last group was all confirmed, Dennis Law's task was completed. He smiled and chatted with Pinto and other two hosts before leaving the stage.

Then the big screen began to play a new highlight of the top three European players of the year.

Through the votes of journalists from 53 countries, Liu Feng, Iniesta and Ronaldo appeared one after another, while Messi ranked fourth.

Needless to say, Liu Feng, who is the defending Triple Crown champion, three consecutive European Golden Boots, top scorer in the Champions League and many other honors.

Iniesta was elected as the best player in the European Cup in this year's European Cup and the lore pass sent in the final made countless people remember him. Similarly, this player is also regarded as one of the most popular candidates for this year's Golden Globe Award.

As for Ronaldo, his performance last season was good enough and eye-catching. He was remarkable in the Champions League, and at the club level he also helped the team finally break the pressure of Barcelona and regain the La Liga championship. This is why he is favored by many reporters.

The three players were invited to the stage one after another. For a while, the flashlights were frequently lit, and fans all over the world began to discuss it.

　Chapter 2 here!Thank you for your great support! ! !This is where Messi played as the third place in history. The big reason is that he broke the scoring record with 14 goals in the Champions League, and the club level is only a Copa del Rey champion.
