I am the king of football

Chapter 429 Similar Rivals

Amidst the heated discussion, Manchester United, whose season has not yet ended, still returned to the training ground after a day of winning the game.

With another championship in hand, the pressure on this team has been dissipated a lot, and the players seem very excited both physically and mentally.

However, what made Ferguson in a good mood was not only the team's treble achievement, but also the great news given to him by the team's medical office, that is, Van Persie's physical recovery exceeded expectations, and by the end of the season, the team's forward general will be able to reappear in the team's lineup.

This is definitely great news as the Champions League semi-finals are approaching. After all, it is okay to rely on Qin Hu as a core offensive point to deal with weak teams. However, once facing a giant team with strong comprehensive strength and no unknown players in each position, the team's offense may have problems.

Now that the problem has been solved, at least Ferguson has the confidence to defeat all opponents that stand in Manchester United's way.

As for Scholes, according to the team doctor he should be able to catch up with the team's Champions League semi-final second leg, which is not bad. The two young players have now returned to normal after several treatments in the cryogenic oxygen chamber, which gives Ferguson more options in selecting players.

So in the few days after resuming training, Ferguson waved his hand and the team carried out several consecutive days of recovery training. Everyone adjusted their condition leisurely and recovered quite well.

Soon, under the attention of everyone, the draw ceremony for the Champions League semi-finals arrived. This season's Champions League semi-finalists Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich and Dortmund gathered in Switzerland.

Compared to the grand occasion when the 32-team group draw was held, the draw site today has become very empty. Ferguson brought along a group of his trusted generals, and Qin Hu, Van Persie, Vidic and others were sitting next to him.

Right behind Manchester United were the coaches and generals of Borussia Dortmund. This season, the Bundesliga's yellow beets are still continuing their storm of youth. Klopp and his players Lewandowski, Reus and Gundogan all looked up at the Manchester United players who were seated.

The players of the Hornets looked at their potential opponents respectively, especially Lewandowski. The now famous center forward in the Bundesliga looked at Qin Hu with eyes full of fighting spirit.

There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, and this principle also applies to football. Now that Qin Hu is the most watched striker player in the world, no matter which top striker of a wealthy team he is, he will feel dissatisfied in his heart, not to mention that he is the most dazzling Lai Tofu in Dortmund's youth storm.

Qin Hu also felt the other party's gaze. He looked back and had a passionate eye contact with the other party. The confrontation between the two sides ended only when Lewandowski could no longer bear it and withdrew his gaze.

Compared to the competition among the players, Klopp and Ferguson had a very speculative chat. As an evergreen in the football coaching world, Ferguson, who is over 70 years old, deserves the respect of all young coaches, not to mention that Klopp himself has great respect for Ferguson.

During the conversation between the two sides, Ferguson quickly felt that the young coach in front of him was indeed a capable person. He was worthy of being the one who made Bayern Munich the king of Sanya last year. His football philosophy made Ferguson feel that he had a lot to learn.

"Maybe we can exchange contact information and chat more later~"

Ferguson took out his mobile phone and exchanged contact information with Klopp directly. He had a deep admiration for this young coach who coached in the Bundesliga and had different ideas in his mind.

This idea has nothing to do with the upcoming draw and the teams' matchups. After the draw host entered the venue, all four teams were already present.

Four teams sat in parallel in the first row of the draw site, from left to right they were Manchester United, Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Barcelona. Except for the moment when Lewandowski and Qin Hu stared at each other at the beginning, it was obvious that the players of the Hornets and the players of Bayern Munich were the most at odds with each other, and the stars of both teams who followed their coaches to the scene were full of murderous intent.

This is not difficult to understand. After all, Bayern Munich's Sanya King last season really slapped the face of the Bundesliga's Southern King. The whole team learned from their mistakes and fought hard in various competitions this season, which allowed them to finally lock in the championship early in the league this season.

Now it is the semi-final round of the Champions League. Both Bundesliga teams have reached the semi-finals. They are both the glory of the Bundesliga and their mortal enemies. When they see each other, they have only one thought in mind - to defeat them.

However, when the draw ceremony officially began, people were unable to see the Bundesliga civil war in this final.

The first to be picked out was Barcelona. This cosmic team is still continuing their madness. They dealt a heavy blow to Real Madrid after they lost to Manchester United and reached the round of 16 of the Champions League. Barcelona, ​​with its outstanding performance, had already secured its position as the champion in La Liga, which meant that Real Madrid once again lost an important trophy to strive for.

Now, Barcelona, ​​which has not made any breakthrough in the Champions League for several consecutive years, is aiming for the Champions League and has put all its energy into it.

With a top midfield combination of Xavi and Bucharest and a superstar like Messi who is recognized as one of the two greatest players of all time, no one will underestimate Barcelona. In other words, the remaining three teams actually don't want to draw this team that looks like it's not easy to mess with.

Then, the person who drew the lots slowly read out the second name.

"Dortmund!"

"Wow~"

The noise filled the entire venue again. The two Bundesliga giants were finally separated. The Hornets, who played with running and high-intensity pressing, faced Barcelona, ​​who were based on ball possession and controlling the game. The two sides in this matchup could be said to be two extremes.

The only ones left are naturally Bayern Munich and Manchester United. The two veteran powerhouses of their respective leagues met in the Champions League semi-finals, the Southern Kings versus the Red Devils. This matchup gave people a strong sense of heaviness.

"This is a matchup between two teams with rich histories. They are also two teams that have lost some of their dominance in the league in recent years but have both re-proven their dominance in the league this season and won the championship again."

After seeing the draw results, Zhan Jun slowly made his comments. In his opinion, Bayern and Manchester United are really a bit similar.

"Now, they meet in the Champions League semi-final. In my opinion, the winner between them is the team most likely to win the Champions League this season!"
