On the afternoon of August 28, local time in Monaco, the draw for the UEFA Champions League group stage of the 2016 season officially began at the Grimaldi Convention Center.

The awards for the best players in Europe will not start until after the draw for the group stage.

Before the draw began, as the captain of Liverpool, Jackie Lee sent the Big Ears Cup won by the team last season to the stage and returned it to UEFA.

Of course, Liverpool has already copied a small trophy and kept it in the honor room.

Hey, a paragraph is missing! If you like it, please collect it: () The update speed is the fastest. ab

There has been a change in this year's Champions League team classification, that is, it is no longer the same as before, and it is completely determined by the European war points of each team.

From this year onwards, the first team in the UEFA Champions League group is fixed as the defending champion of the UEFA Champions League plus the top seven league champions in the European War.

Damn, another section is missing! , the fastest update! squot;a9

The following second to fourth tiers will continue to be divided according to the team's European War points.

According to UEFA's explanation, it is said that this new division method can take more care of the champion teams of the major leagues.

For example, in the past few years, every time they came to participate in the Champions League, they were prone to encounter the death group. It was because the points in the European war were not enough. Even the Premier League champions often participated as third or fourth tier teams. .

Now with this new rule, as long as Manchester City participates as the league champion, regardless of the number of points in the European war, they must be the first team, and they can avoid being classified into the death group as much as possible.

On kbd day, I can't watch it and I'm missing a paragraph! Remember for a second, (). kbdquot;b4

Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Arsenal, Manchester City and other Champions League regulars have fallen to the second tier of teams.

It is also worth mentioning that under UEFA's new rules, if the Europa League champion does not qualify for the Champions League in the domestic league, he can also automatically obtain a Champions League qualification.

Sevilla, the Europa League champions last season, and they finally ranked fifth in La Liga last season.

Therefore, Sevilla not only qualified for the Champions League group stage this season, but also did not occupy the original four Champions League places in La Liga.

In other words, five teams from La Liga have participated in the Champions League this season, which is the second time in the history of the Champions League.

In the 0506 season, because Liverpool won the Champions League last season but only ranked fifth in the Premier League, and whether UEFA has adjusted the allocation of places, the Premier League has Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Everton. The team competes in the Champions League together.

However, both Liverpool and Everton participated in the qualifying rounds, and because Liverpool took part in a special place, they started directly from the first round of qualifying rounds.

But it is a pity that although Liverpool made it all the way to the main match, Everton was eliminated by the yellow submarine Villarreal in La Liga.

Therefore, at that time, the Premier League missed the achievement of five teams participating in the Champions League for the first time.

This time this year, Valencia, who is fourth in La Liga, successfully passed the Champions League qualifying round, so La Liga has also become the first league with five teams participating in the Champions League.

In addition, there is another new team in this year's Champions League group stage, and that is Astana in the Kazakhstan League.

Astana is not only the first time in the history of the team to enter the Champions League, but also the first Kazakhstan team to enter the Champions League. It also makes Kazakhstan the 32nd country in the history of the Champions League. represent.

When Kazakhstan was still under the banner of the AFC, it was repeatedly calculated by countries in West Asia, and its record in Asia has always been mediocre.

So in a fit of anger, Kazakhstan chose to leave Asia in 2002 and join the stronger UEFA.

Because Kazakhstan does have a little bit of land hanging on the Eurasian boundary, so they do have a reason to leave Asia and enter Europe.

When I first joined UEFA, the Kazakhstan team was a standard fish belly, and it was really the kind of bullying.

But after 13 years of baptism, they have gradually got rid of their identity and entered the Champions League for the first time.

In this year's UEFA Champions League qualifying round, Astana eliminated Maribor of Slovenia in the second round and Helsinki of Finland in the third round. In the playoffs, they faced the Greek who had reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League three years ago. Athletic, they were 1:0 at home and 1:1 away, and eliminated each other with a total score of 2:1 in the two rounds, making a historic entry into the Champions League.

I believe that this trip to the Champions League is definitely a very good exercise for this group of Kazakh players.

Since this year's Champions League final will be held at the San Siro Meazza Stadium in Milan, Maldini and Zanetti were invited to be ambassadors for this season's Champions League final.

After the two made a speech on the stage, they took away the big ear cup together, and then the drawing ceremony officially began.

Among the teams in the third tier of the Champions League this season, there are strong ones like Roma, Lyon and Sevilla.

Among the fourth-tier teams, there are also two strong teams, Borussia Borussia and Wolfsburg.

Under the auspices of UEFA Secretary-General Infantino and Competition Director Marchetti, the results of the draw came out soon.

Liverpool were drawn into a group with PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie, CSKA Moscow in the Russian Premier League and Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.

Although it was assigned to be with the strongest fourth-tier team, in general, this group is not difficult, and Liverpool's qualification is not a big problem.

For the other three teams in the Premier League, Chelsea are assigned to a group with Porto in the Portuguese Super League, Dynamo Kiev in Ukraine and Maccabi Tel Aviv in Israel, which is also a relatively easy group.

The current state of Chelsea's team is very bad, and being assigned to such a group should allow Mourinho to breathe a sigh of relief.

Arsenal is assigned to a group with Bayern in the Bundesliga, Olympiacos in Greece, and Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia. Although they are meeting Bayern again, Arsenal's qualifying problems should not be too big.

As for Manchester City, they have entered the death group again. The other three teams in the group are Juventus, the Serie A champion, Sevilla, the Europa League champion, and Borussia Mönchenglad, who is third in the Bundesliga. bach.

I have to say that UEFA really likes to punish Manchester City, and I don't know why.

As a local tyrant team that spends money everywhere, Ligue 1 Paris has a good life, and can easily enter the Champions League knockout round every year.

As for Manchester City, if you don't divide it into a death group, you will feel sorry for the audience.

In this season's Champions League grouping, Manchester City's group is the deadliest, and it is all teams from the five major leagues.

At the same time, there is another slightly dead group, which is the group of Barcelona, ​​Leverkusen, Roma and Borisov.

Because Leverkusen and Roma are both teams in the five major leagues, if they play well, it is really possible to cause trouble for Barcelona.

The draw for the UEFA Champions League group stage is over, and the next step is to award the best player in Europe this year.

There is really no suspense for this year's best player in Europe. This award was voted by 54 journalists from various European countries on the spot. Lee Chenglong alone won 47 votes, the remaining 5 votes for Messi, and 2 votes for Ronaldo.

Bruce Lee has become the first player in the history of UEFA to win the European Player of the Year twice, and he has won the award for two consecutive years. This is even more commendable. We congratulate him. He is the well-deserved King of Europe this year. !!

Amidst the congratulations from the commentators from all over the world, Jackie Lee took the stage to accept the award, which also ended tonight's event.
