My name is Colani

Chapter 396: Bad Luck

Deschamps was of course extremely satisfied. The team played a very good game today. His tactical arrangement was perfectly reflected on the court. From the data of the whole game, Trapani had an absolute advantage in all aspects, with 14 shots to 6, 10 shots on target to 2, and a possession rate of 56%.

In terms of interception, Mascherano and Samuel had a high interception success rate. Samuel's state and adaptability made Deschamps particularly satisfied. In the press conference after the game, Deschamps also praised Samuel.

"Walter is our most important signing this season. I hope his arrival can solve many of our problems on the defensive end. I think he can become the commander of our defense line. He did a great job today. I hope he can continue to perform like this!"

The comprehensive defeat of various data left Peseiro speechless. He could only say that we didn't play what we wanted today.

Since we have advanced, reporters can't help but ask Deschamps what specific goals he has in the Champions League in the new season and whether Trapani's top management has made any requests.

This season, Hugo made a request to Deschamps, but this request was not for the Champions League but for the league. Hugo hoped that the team could get a place in the group stage directly instead of going through the qualifiers. Needless to say, Hugo knew it was difficult for the Champions League, and he did not have a clear request for Deschamps.

"Our goal at this stage is to qualify from the group stage!"

"So what do you think about the upcoming draw, Mr. Deschamps?!" the reporter asked.

"We are a strong team, we are not afraid of any team!" Deschamps emphasized first, and then smiled and said: "If we can draw a good lot, it is of course very important for us, I wish us good luck! Of course, the teams that can advance to the group stage are not bad, no matter who we draw, it means that we must go all out in every game!"

The game ended on the 24th, and the draw ceremony for the 05-06 Champions League group stage was held in Monte Carlo, Monaco on the 25th. Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus and Trapani are the four Italian representative teams.

Milan and Inter Milan are the first-tier teams, Juventus is the second-tier team, and Trapani is the fourth-tier team. The draw for the fourth-tier teams is definitely the most dangerous. If Trapani wants to draw a good draw, it must be very, very lucky.

Hugo did not attend the draw ceremony. Trapani's club chairman Moreke and general manager Giorgio Esposito attended the draw ceremony. Moreke and Giorgio were not calm. A good draw is really too important for Trapani. Last year, Trapani's draw was very bad. They met Valencia and Werder Bremen, and they really became the bottom of the fish. They don't want to encounter such a bad thing again in the new season, but as a fourth-tier team, this is a high probability event.

Hugo watched the Champions League group stage draw ceremony with Lu Fan at the headquarters of Hugo International Investment Company in Trapani. The guest of the draw, Maldini, failed to bring good luck to Trapani. Trapani unfortunately met Werder Bremen again and was divided into Group C. In addition, this season, there are also La Liga giants Barcelona and Greek giants Panathinaikos. This group is called the death group.

From last season, Trapani was eliminated without winning a group match. Trapani was a weak team, but this summer Trapani's net transfer investment is definitely among the top few in Europe, and it is ambitious.

In the Champions League play-offs, Trapani also performed relatively strongly, and Deschamps also had it, so the media had to regard Trapani as a very uncertain team.

Hugo was very dissatisfied with the result of the draw, secretly cursing Maldini's bad luck. Morek and Giorgio, who attended the ceremony, could only smile bitterly at the camera. This year's luck is even worse. Barcelona won the La Liga championship last season and is stronger than Valencia, which means Trapani's qualification situation will be more difficult.

"We are not very lucky! This group has Barcelona, ​​Werder Bremen, and Panathinaikos. They are all very strong and we face a huge challenge!" Morek complained to reporters on the spot.

"I am not saying that we will surrender. I have absolute confidence in the team. I believe we can play well in every game and work hard. It may not be us who qualify!" Morek also said immediately.

"The group stage will be difficult, but any group is difficult. We are confident that we can qualify from the group!" Trapani's general manager Giorgio also pretended to be calm in front of the media.

They complained a lot about the draw in their phone call with Hugo. Trapani's draw was too bad. Hugo had already scolded them. At this time, he could only comfort the two helplessly, saying that we can still do it.

Compared with the lack of confidence of the top management, Trapani's coach and players are obviously more relaxed.

Deschamps has the attitude that it is good if it can be a good draw, and it doesn't matter if it can't be a good draw. He didn't go to Monaco. After Trapani's draw, he said in a telephone interview with the media: "We definitely hope to have a good draw, but it doesn't matter if we don't. As long as we play our true strength, we have a great chance of qualifying!"

Captain Toni revealed his excitement in the interview. His excitement came from Werder Bremen. Werder Bremen last season gave Trapani a painful lesson. This season, they met again. Toni's desire for revenge is obvious.

"I am very happy to meet them (Werder Bremen) again. Now we need to prove that last year was just a coincidence!"

The players of Trapani all said that they were not afraid of the challenges in the Champions League. This is normal. With such a terrible result last year, everyone is holding back and wants to prove themselves this year.

Ribery even boasted that we can not only qualify for the group stage, but we can also compete for the championship!

Hugo really wanted to slap the little guy twice. You dare to say that, I dare not say it!

Except for Trapani, the draw results of several other Italian teams are relatively ideal. Milan experienced the Istanbul Night last season and became the laughing stock of the entire European football world. In the new season, they naturally have a strong desire for revenge. They drew PSV Eindhoven, Schalke 04, and Fenerbahce. They are the strongest and there should be no big worries about qualifying.

Inter Milan is in the same group with Porto, Glasgow Rangers, and Bratislava. They are also the strongest on paper.

Juventus and old enemy Bayern Munich are drawn in the same group. There are also Bruges and Vienna Rapid in the same group. Juventus and Bayern Munich are the strongest in the same group, and qualifying should not be a problem.

The Italian media made a very comprehensive analysis of the grouping and qualifying situation of Italian teams. Although Trapani did not win a single victory against Werder Bremen last year, the media generally believe that Werder Bremen is Trapani’s biggest enemy in the same group in the new season.

Why do I say that? Because in everyone's opinion, Trapani's overall strength is not as good as Barcelona, ​​but it is hard to say who is better or worse than Werder Bremen. For Barcelona, ​​the draw in Group C is definitely very good for them. They have already booked a place to qualify, and the remaining places will naturally be fought between Werder Bremen and Trapani. That's why the media thinks Bremen is the most direct competitor, and it is particularly important to play well against Bremen.

Major media also began to give advice to Deschamps. Last season, Zeman's tactical arrangement against Bremen was hit again and was dragged out as a negative example. Deschamps would never pay attention to these boring people.
