ball at foot

After the match against Paris, Monaco ushered in another piece of good news. The Lyon team tied the game. With three wins and one loss and nine points, Monaco has entered the No.1 position in the Ligue [-].

After the match against Paris, Zhao Yaning was once again praised by the media for scoring twice this season.

"We have enough reasons to believe that Zhao Yaning can definitely become a good enough star. His level is definitely not as simple as that of Pires in Asia. In time, he can definitely grow into a top player in Europe. He should not be simply attributed The class is a weakened version of someone, but we should be more serious, face up to his ability and talent, and make a correct enough evaluation for him."

However, can you win the right to vote for yourself?In Zhao Yaning's heart, he had no bottom at all.

--------------------------------

Leaving aside Zhao Yaning’s personal affairs, Monaco also ushered in another matter.

On August 8, the day of the UEFA Champions League group draw is coming soon.

The annual UEFA Champions League draw ceremony is held in Monte Carlo, that is to say, almost all the managers of the best teams in Europe will gather here.

At this time last year, Monaco players were indifferent to the Champions League. They ranked No.01 in the league in the 02-14 season, and the team that was almost relegated, how could they be in the mood to think about it?But this year, their mood is very different.

"At this time of year, many team owners, managers, and coaches come back to Monaco, and you can see that there will be a lot of strange people outside the walls of the Latubi training base...Last year Of course, no one came to see us. You are the coach of a Champions League team. Will you go to inspect the players of the relegation team? But this year, there will definitely be many people who will come to see us. The two days of training should be more energetic, and When you meet others, be more polite, maybe it will have a very important effect on you."

As the player who has stayed in the team for the longest time, Giuly introduced his experience, "And during this time, you can see many famous old coaches outside, or some well-known retired players. Don't be surprised when you see them. , don’t look stupid and make people suspect that we are idiots. It’s fine to ask for an autograph after seeing your respected coach, don’t make a scene too shameful!”

"I think we should be more concerned about the grouping of the Champions League, isn't it?" Zhao Yaning asked softly beside him, "Which group we are in is more important?"

"What is there to care about? Anyway, any group is the group of death for us."

There is a reason for saying this, because Monaco has only played the Champions League once in the past few years, and was eliminated in the group stage. Therefore, their division is a very sad fourth-tier team.In fact, among the 32 teams in the UEFA Champions League, only Bruges in Belgium, Besiktas in Turkey and Partizan Belgrade in Serbia and Montenegro have lower points than them...

Anyway, no matter how they are divided, they will meet a strong first-tier team and a second-tier strong team in the group. Then, based on the principle of not biting too many lice, they don't care about grouping.

But when it came time to draw lots, they all gathered in the team and watched the scene of the lottery through the TV screen together.

"In any case, no Real Madrid, no Manchester United, no Juventus, no Milan!"

When looking at the details of the grouping in the first file, several people were still talking about it.

When they saw the second grouping, when Lyon and Bayern Munich were drawn into a group, several people immediately scolded and lamented Lyon's good luck: Bayern Munich's current virtue is not the same as the previous two years, and this kind of lameness It would be great if the team got drawn into a group.

In the third grouping, when Marseille was thrown into the group where Real Madrid and Porto belonged, everyone was relieved: Real Madrid is not a bone to chew on, let Marseille frown.

When it finally came to the fourth tier of team grouping, Monaco finally ushered in its own trial.

"Group, Deportivo, Eindhoven, Athens, Monaco."
