Soccer: Maxed-out ball control, the skill is too overpowered.

"Hey guys, did you see that? Our draw looks pretty good!"

"That's definitely a very favorable draw; they should be in the group stage."

"Lu, I guess it's because of your luck."

"I?"

At the Atlético Madrid training base canteen, Lu Xiao pointed to his own nose and laughed.

"No, no, that's impossible."

If it's Lu Xiao's luck,

We're definitely going to be drawn into the group of death.

Last season, Bayer Leverkusen's arduous journey out of the "group of death" is still fresh in everyone's memory.

Facing a siege from Real Madrid, Roma, and Liverpool,

They broke through the blockade and won first place in their group.

The draw for the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League group stage has been completed.

I took out my phone to browse the news.

News about the Champions League is everywhere.

Manchester City faces a tough group; Lu Xiao wins UEFA Player of the Year award.

Atletico Madrid and Manchester United get favorable draws; Real Madrid vs. PSG

Lu Xiao leads last season's Champions League Best XI! Atletico Madrid secures their place in the Round of 16!

According to AS, at 6 PM Central European Time on August 27, 2015,

The draw ceremony for the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League group stage and the award ceremony for the best player were held in Monaco.

Lu Xiao beat out Messi and Suarez to win the UEFA Men's Player of the Year award last season! He was also selected for the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League Team of the Year.

"Draw results: Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are placed in Group A; "

Group D, consisting of defending champions Juventus, Premier League runners-up Manchester City, Europa League champions Sevilla, and Bundesliga powerhouse Borussia Mönchengladbach, is considered the "Group of Death."

In Group F, Arsenal will once again face their nemesis Bayern Munich;

Manchester United's Group B, Atletico Madrid's Group C, Barcelona's Group E, and Chelsea's Group G all have no strong teams to contend with, making them very favorable draws.

Due to the controversial events involving Bayer Leverkusen last season

Lu Xiao and other key players were suspended due to accumulated yellow cards, thus missing out on qualifying for the final.

After multiple hearings and discussions by UEFA,

Starting from the 2015-2016 season, a new rule was added to reset yellow cards.

The number of yellow cards accumulated before the semi-finals is reset to zero.

Hopefully, this will protect the players' interests and not affect the quality of the semifinals and finals.

The following are the draw results for the 15/16 UEFA Champions League group stage:

Group A…

Group B...

Group C: Benfica, Atletico Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, Astana…

Seeing this lottery,

All Lu Xiao could say was, "Damn it!"

Did UEFA set this up?

In their first match, their opponent was none other than their former club, Bayer Leverkusen.

……

"Congratulations, Luis Scola, on winning the European Player of the Year award."

"Thank you, Sammy. It's a shame we drew the same number."

Training day ended,

Lu Xiao received a call from former head coach Sami Hyypia.

Two consecutive seasons of good results,

Sasha Lewandowski and Sami Hyypia will continue to hold their positions as head coaches of Bayer Leverkusen.

Logically, these two should have been dismissed in the summer of 2014.

The prediction was that Roger Schmidt, a young German coach, would take over and coach Bayer Leverkusen for three years.

Lu Xiao's appearance,

This has already created a butterfly effect, gradually influencing the landscape of European football.

This impact is growing larger and becoming increasingly uncontrollable.

How's the team doing lately?

"You know, too many people left, so the results fluctuated a bit, haha, but it's still under control."

"Lu, when we meet, be careful we don't pull off an upset."

"I'm really looking forward to it."

Leverkusen supermarket opens

Lu Xiao, Firmino, Son Heung-min, De Bruyne, Van Dijk, Maguire, Kimmich...

The whole group left.

Former striker Kiessling was reinstated, and the club used the newly acquired budget to bring in some new players.

But without players like Lu Xiao and De Bruyne, Leverkusen has long lost its soul.

In the first four games of the season, they had two wins and two losses.

They finally lost to Bayern Munich.

It seems the Bundesliga giants are poised to dominate the league once again.

Lu Xiao was also deeply saddened when she recently read the news.

"Fine, I'll just focus on playing well. After all, it was Leverkusen who requested the transfer, so we've already done more than enough for them."

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao couldn't help but send a message to De Bruyne of Manchester City.

Congratulations on making it into the group of death. If we don't meet in the knockout stage, I will carry on your legacy and strive for the championship.

De Bruyne's reply was also very simple:

[Fuck off! See you in the knockout stage!]

Unfortunately, Son Heung-min was unlucky.

Tottenham are not playing in the Champions League, and it's unlikely they'll be back anytime soon.

"Lu, who are you texting? Is it your German girlfriend?"

After getting to know Griezmann, the guy gradually started joking around with Lu Xiao.

"It must be her. I've seen her picture by chance. No wonder Lu is so infatuated with her."

"Get out! Get out! Get out!"

Lu Xiao was so annoyed that he wanted to kick Torres.

These two are both people, do they really let loose like this in private?

"By the way, what about the match against Athletic Bilbao this week? Will the coach let us play?"

"I don't know, after all, the Champions League is next week, so they might need to rotate the squad."

"Lu, you have the best relationship with the coach right now, could you help sound him out?"

"No need, rotation is definitely in the works."

"what?"

Athletic Bilbao is a well-known pure-blooded team in La Liga, recruiting only players from the Basque region.

The Basque region has a fierce and tough culture, which contributes to the strong fighting spirit of Bilbao.

Real Madrid and Barcelona both had a tough time, so the match against Atletico Madrid will definitely be a tough one.

The key players all want to start, but facing the Champions League group stage, playing two matches a week is too much pressure.

Everyone is quite troubled.

Before the third round of La Liga matches this weekend,

As expected, Simone kept everyone on the sidelines.

"The rosters for the weekend league matches have all been sent to their respective email addresses. The starting lineups have actually been decided, and there's information in the WhatsApp group announcement."

Please check it out yourselves.

If you have any questions about the lineup, you can ask them now.

Otherwise, when I leave the locker room, no questions are allowed.

"Coach!! I want to play both games the full 90 minutes!"

"Me too, Coach!!"

Atletico Madrid's starting lineup all stood up.

The substitute players' expressions also changed slightly.

He clearly has a chance to play, but if the starting lineup takes his spot, he'll end up on the bench again.

"Stop! I've changed my mind. From now on, no questioning is allowed."

"What?"

The entire Atlético Madrid squad was stunned.

How could Simone act so shamelessly?

However, the head coach had enough authority that they had nothing to say.

Only Saul, with his straightforward personality, is not afraid of Simeone. Relying on his youth training background and Simeone's personal favor, he has always been outspoken.

Why is only Lukaku starting?

Yes, this is a question that many people find quite strange.

The starting lineup for the weekend match against Athletic Bilbao.

Almost all of them are substitutes and rotation players.

Only goalkeeper Oblak and attacking midfielder Lu Xiao started the match.

Logically speaking, for such an important match, at least half of the main players should be fielded.

Are we going to give up the league for the sake of the Champions League?

Simone's answer was also very simple:

"Because he can lead the team to victory."

Disband. "

"Coach! Coach!!"

The locker room erupted in chaos, and Simone left without looking back.

Lu Xiao discovered that

He became the target of public criticism.

It is not scarcity that is to be feared, but inequality.

No matter how strong Lu Xiao is or how well he performs, his teammates will inevitably be puzzled by this situation.

Do the coaching staff really think that Lu Xiao can defeat Athletic Bilbao by himself?

"That damn Simone, he's useless himself, leaving me to shoulder all the pressure?"

With things having come to this point, Lu Xiao had no choice but to tough it out.

The system is his greatest source of confidence.

"Brothers, this is what I said."

I'll take all three points from this game.
