Before the draw ceremony, the outside world asserted the existence of the death group. Manchester City in the second gear, Paris Saint-Germain in the third gear, Juventus and Ajax, and Dortmund in the fourth gear were all identified as "Factor of death".

Sure enough, UEFA launched a group D with a very strong atmosphere of death in accordance with public opinion: Real Madrid, Manchester City, Ajax and Dortmund. Four powerful teams gathered to fight for the two qualifying places.

Three of the four teams are defending champions in their league. Manchester City are also extremely strong players, so this group is also called the champion group.

Among them, Mourinho's team was shortlisted in the quarter-finals of the Champions League last season, and this year's strength has steadily improved; although Manchester City are the new Champions League, but Mancini's team is enough to become a nightmare for all teams; Dortmund's Champions League last season's poor record This time is bound to make a difference; Ajax's strength is slightly weaker, but the Dutch team that has won the Big Ear Cup four times in history is definitely enough for three opponents to drink a pot. Although Real Madrid and Manchester City dominate the overall power, it is not surprising that any team in Group D breaks through.

From the perspective of the balance of team strength, Arsenal, Schalke 04, Olympiacos and Montpellier Group B can also be counted as the group of small deaths, including the gun gestures that have completed many heavy acquisitions this summer. Head, but the other three teams, especially the defending Champions League Montpellier have the ability to cause Wenger trouble.

Perhaps it is because Group D has taken away most of the "death breath". Except for Valencia in Group E and Juventus who returned to the Champions League as the defending champion of Serie A, the other groups have little real power. Dialogue, more is the duel between the semi-powerful teams, Milan, Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Manchester United and other big teams have drawn the ideal signing. It is not difficult for these teams to qualify as the top of the group.

The four teams in the first round of Manchester United’s Group H are basically encounter encounters. Braga and Cluj, who have little experience in the Champions League, have never played against opponents in this group. Manchester United and Galata Salai only met twice in the European War and played 4 games, and it is already the distant 1993-1994 season and 1994-1995 season, almost 20 years ago.

In 1993, the new Premier League champion Manchester United returned to the Champions League. In the second round, they met Galatasaray. In the first round, they were chased by 3 opponents for 3 consecutive goals in the first round of 15 minutes at the beginning of Old Trafford. In 3:3, waiting for the second round of Turkey's **** home, Manchester United broke the goal, and Cantona was sent off with a red card before the end. He was eventually eliminated because of fewer away goals. The following season, Manchester United met Galatasaray again in the group stage, still 0:0 away, but the last round of the group stage home victory 4:0, but because the goal difference is less than Barcelona and Galata Sarre was eliminated together.

In terms of objective strength, Manchester United is a standout in this group. As long as Manchester United does not drop the chain itself, then the other three opponents may not be able to prevent Manchester United from winning the top spot. At least the Red Devils should have already booked a qualifying spot in advance.

Among the remaining three teams, Braga from the Portuguese Super League is slightly stronger. Two seasons ago, they won three games in the Champions League group stage and also won the runner-up in the UEFA Cup. The home advantage of Cluj and Galatasaray cannot be underestimated. Both Manchester United and Braga are expeditions. If Galatasaray and Cluj can make good use of their home field, It is entirely possible to disturb the order of the team and get a seat for the qualifying.

Next is the award ceremony for the best player in Europe last season.

At this awards ceremony, reporters voted for the best European players in the 2011-2012 season.

After the first round of voting from journalists from 53 European countries, Bell, Messi and C Ronaldo won the top three votes, and this time the winner of the best player in Europe will also be among them.

First, the big screen led the audience on the scene and in front of the TV to review the wonderful performance of the three candidates Bell, Messi and Ronaldo in the Champions League, the league and even the national team.

Bell led Manchester United to defend the Champions League, the Premier League and the FA Cup last season. He also scored 61 goals in the Premier League, 17 goals in the Champions League, and refreshed the player's single-season club for two consecutive years. Goal record.

In the 2010-2011 season, Bell scored 42 goals in the Premier League, 16 goals in the UEFA Champions League, 5 goals in the FA Cup, and 5 goals in the League Cup. For the season, Manchester United scored 68 goals, breaking the cover De Mueller set a season goal record for players who scored 67 goals for Bayern in the 1972-1973 season.

In the just past 2011-2012 season, Bell broke out again and scored 90 goals for the Manchester United club in six events including the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League, FA Cup, World Club Cup, Community Shield Cup and European Super Cup. Raise the previous record he kept by 22 goals!

In the summer, Bell led Wales, who was not optimistic, and defeated strong opponents such as Portugal, Spain, and Italy. In the case of not being optimistic, he unexpectedly won the European Cup championship. Bell himself also won the European Cup Golden Boot and the most Good player. Immediately afterwards, Bell went to the London Olympics and led the British Olympic team to win the Olympic title. His performance was invincible.

Messi was the best scorer in La Liga last season. He scored 14 goals in the Champions League and also set a personal highest record in a single season. At the same time, in the history of the Champions League, this goal is also ranked third, and in the past 2011 -In the 2012 season, Messi scored a total of 70 goals for Barcelona in La Liga, the European Super Cup and the King’s Cup. This figure even exceeded the record of Ged Mueller and Bell’s last season The new record set is second only to Bell’s 90-ball horror record this season, and his personal performance is impeccable.

Ronaldo helped Real Madrid win the La Liga title, while scoring 50 goals in La Liga, tied with Messi, 10 goals in the Champions League. And the individual scored for Real Madrid all season, reaching 64 goals!

………………

It can be said that the past 2011-2012 season was the year when the Big Three established hegemony in football. In this year, the three men scored more than 50 goals in their respective leagues, and the number of goals in the Champions League also exceeded 10 goals. As for the total number of goals in a single season, they all broke the 60-ball mark.

The total number of goals in a single season includes not only league goals, but also European goals and domestic cup goals. For a long time, it was Ged Muller who kept this record. In the 1972-1973 season, Mueller scored 36 goals in the Bundesliga and defended the league's Golden Boots. In addition, he also scored 31 goals in the European Wars and domestic cups, reaching a total of an astonishing 67 goals.

Mueller's record was maintained for a full 38 years, until Bell broke it in the 2010-2011 season.

How difficult it is for Mueller to break 67 goals in a single season can be illustrated by two characters.

In the 1996-1997 season, Ronaldo, who played for Barcelona, ​​was hailed as an "alien", but his total goals for that season was actually only 47 goals, which has been held up to the sky.

In the 2007-2008 season, Ronaldo helped Manchester United to win the Premier League and the Champions League with a fantastic performance, but that season, his total goals were actually only 42 goals.

Such miraculous play is so far away from Mueller's record, no wonder that for a long time, everyone thinks that Mueller's record cannot be broken.

However, the appearance of Bell changed all this. In the 2010-2011 season, Bell scored 42 goals in the Premier League and scored 26 goals in the European Wars and domestic cups, thus breaking the 38-year single goal total scored by Mueller with a magical record of 68 goals. Record.

Bell's record-breaking this time was like opening the Pandora's Box first, making the previous record seem worthless.

No, this season, Bell first set a record of 68 goals that he just created last season, and Messi also broke the record of Ged Mueller, and also broke the record created by Bell last season.

Although Cristiano Ronaldo is a bit behind the two, but it is also a player of the same grade. The three of them opened up a gap between them and the rest of the players.

………………

Although this vote was conducted among three people, the discerning people knew that the best player has no suspense, because Bell has performed really well in the past year, whether in the club or in the national team, Whether in team honors or individual performance, Bell has obvious advantages. Although Messi and Ronaldo's performances are also super gods, they are basically not competitive in the face of Bell's radiance.

Then, the three candidates were invited to the stage, and the host conducted a short interview with Bell, Messi, and Ronaldo. Cristiano Ronaldo felt helpless for Real Madrid to enter the death group, but still firmly stated that Real Madrid will show the style of the La Liga champion, while Messi believes that strength and luck are extremely important factors. As for Bell, he has always been low-key, but this time it seems to be domineering, saying that no matter who the opponent is, it can't stop Manchester United from moving forward.

In the end, it was the President of European Sports Magazine and UEFA President Platini who was invited to the stage, and the President Platini announced that the honor of the European Footballer in 2012 belonged to Bell, which also affected him in the Premier League, Champions League, European Cup And the return of outstanding performance in the Olympic arena.

After accepting the interview, Bell embraced Manchester United's predecessors for the first time, while Messi on the side was slightly embarrassed.

But fortunately, Bell immediately turned around and hugged him again, but the picture was a little weird. Messi, who was one head lower than Bell, was held in his arms by Bell, just like holding a half-old child.

The host announced the official conclusion of the award ceremony. Bell won the best player in Europe for two consecutive years. At the same time, this was his second consecutive defeat of Messi and Ronaldo.
