Zhuoyang returned to Madiburg again, although he came back often. But this time he did not come back as a professor of Chinese music, nor as an idler to visit, but as Manchester City's No. 18 player, back to Madiburg Peninsula.

However, he was unable to play.

The 2017-18 Champions League group draw was announced at the award ceremony on the day Zhuo Yang won the European Player of the Season. In Group F with defending champion Manchester City, there are Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine and Napoli in Serie A.

, and Bundesliga team Madiburg.

In the first round of the Champions League of the new season, Manchester City will visit Hannover to face Zhuoyang's original club.

Madiburg finished fourth in the Bundesliga last season, which was not easy. The top three were the dominant Bayern, the red and good Leipzig, and Borussia Dortmund. The young coach Marcus Carlisle can lead a lineup that is not arrogant at all.

Madibao won the fourth place in the gap. In fact, even Hasler did not expect it, and Zhuo Yang did not expect it.

There are 31 Champions League places in the Bundesliga. Madiburg got a good draw in the Champions League qualifying play-offs. Astana from Kazakhstan eliminated their opponents 8:4 in two rounds, thus returning to the Champions League after seven years.

Champions League main game.

The last time was in the second year of Tuchel's coaching, the 10-11 season. That time they were eliminated by Tottenham, Inter Milan and Twente in the group stage, finishing at the bottom of the group. If they go up further, they will have to

It goes back to Uncle Zha’s time.

In fact, Madiburg took advantage of the chaos in the Bundesliga last season. Upstart Leipzig emerged from nowhere. Several established teams such as Hamburg, Schalke, Pharmacy, Huocun, and Werder Bremen were in a collective downturn. Wolfsburg even had to rely on

Only in the play-offs can we avoid relegation.

Madibau relied on its stable output to tie the game, with 11 wins, 15 draws and 8 losses in 34 games, accumulating 48 points. It was the team with the most draws in the Bundesliga last season. In the end, it beat the same team with a 4 goal difference advantage.

Cologne finished fourth, but was 16 points behind third-placed Dortmund.

It has been eleven years since he left in 2006. Zhuoyang only met Madiburg in the group stage when AC Milan played in the Champions League in the 2008-09 season. This was the second time this year.

I don’t know if this draw was intentional by UEFA, but there was obviously an own goal in the schedule. Zhuoyang received a red card for a flagrant foul in last season’s Champions League final, and was suspended for one additional game afterwards, for a total of two games.

.The Super Cup was over, and they had to stop one game in the first round of the group stage, but they happened to be a guest at Madiburg.

What a great tournament gimmick, I guess the UEFA bosses are stupid.

The situation in Group F is naturally that Manchester City is the dominant one, with Tottenham, Napoli and Madibo posing a threat, but the main competition is between the three of them for second place in the group. Anyway, compared to Group B Paris-Bayern, Group C Chelsea-Atletico Madrid-Roma,

Group D: Barcelona-Juventus, Group H: Real Madrid-Dortmund-Tottenham, these are strong dialogue or death groups, Manchester City is more lively.

Four days ago, Manchester City slaughtered Liverpool 5-0 at home, which caused an uproar around the world. This was the Champions League champion beating the Premier League champion as a weak chicken. Everyone in the industry knows that there are inherent laws in competitive sports, and a strong dialogue can achieve great results.

A win is enough to improve the status of the entire team.

The 5-0 victory over Liverpool showed that Manchester City, which has gone through pre-season training and physical reserves, has arrived at its first competitive peak in the new season. At this time, people will block the opponent and the opponent will destroy the opponent. Smart people will definitely avoid its sharp edges.

But Madiburg cannot hide, and they don’t want to hide at all. Madiburg received Manchester City with the highest standards and gave the green light to all aspects. This is not because Madiburg respects the Champions League champions. They used to do the same. Who should respect whom? Just because

Manchester City is where the King of Madiburg currently travels.

Even the club chairman, Mr. Angus Mullen, who had not been seen for a long time, personally appeared in the Victor Stadium stands and watched the game with Zhuoyang.

Chairman Mullen is 63 years old this year. He is much older and fatter than when Zhuo Yang first came to Madiburg 15 years ago. He is also a bit fatter. He has a very standard image of a fat old German man.

27 years ago, Mullen, a trader under the age of 40, bought the unsustainable Hannover Madiburg Club for 1 million German marks, equivalent to US$630,000. In fact, this price was not low at the time, because it was

The money is still valuable, and it doesn't matter what the Madiburg club wants. They don't even have many fans. Such amateur clubs are everywhere in Germany. The value of the players can be completely ignored, and the only value is the bit of land.

But after buying it, Mullen invested heavily in Fort Maddie, bulldozing the original bare cricket stadium that could only seat 6,000 people, and building the now magnificent Victor Stadium, which can seat 19,000 people.

Although it is still a pocket stadium, with its graceful sail shape, especially after the rise of the Six Musketeers, Victor Stadium has become famous and is known as one of the top ten "most beautiful" in the world.

Chairman Mullen also invested heavily in players. In the past ten years, the team has climbed from the seventh-level amateur league to the third level of the German Bundesliga, becoming a true professional club.

After that, the Six Musketeers appeared and Madibao soared into the sky.

Angus Mullen's own trading business also took a leap after 2002, because he caught up with the rapid development of China's economy. By 2008, Mullen was already on the German rich list and reached the pinnacle of his life.

Starting in 2004, Mullen used the profits from selling the other five Musketeers except Zhuoyang to upgrade the Fort Madi Club twice. The training base at the foot of the Eifel Mountain was established at that stage, as well as medical and

Scientific research center. Since then, Madibo has become a first-class football club in Europe.

Including the 78 million from the sale of Zhuo Yang in 2006, Mullen used it to build the club's youth training and other infrastructure, which was quite prosperous.

Originally, everything had formed a virtuous cycle, and Madibao could rely on its good youth training to become a black luxury goods store in football, and it continued to grow and develop like a snowball, but Mullen was gone.

Like many European tycoons, he began to chase quick money. The trading business of selling chicken feathers could not satisfy his greed, so Mullen passionately devoted himself to the financial market. He deserved his misfortune, and what came to him was the 2008 global financial crisis.

The crisis is still oppressing the whole of Europe, and many countries are unable to bear it. Angus Mullen is a little leek among them, and he almost even had his ancestral graves cut.

Not to mention investing in the club, after that, all the money from Madiburg's sales of players and monsters was basically used by Mullen to fill the debt hole. Dwarf Hassler is Mullen's good friend and has shouldered the burden for him over the years.

Although he has gained notoriety, he has been able to maintain the club and achieve decent results. Hassler deserves a lot of credit, and it is a great contribution.

Now that Mullen is getting older, he is a bit immobile. He has rarely come to the peninsula in the past two years. The Madiburg Club relies on the three giants of Hassler, Muller, Stubnall and Miss Sylvia.

Maintaining operation.

Sylvia Tiana Yankovic, who was once a flower in the peninsula, is now a mother of three children and has been forced to become a capable middle-aged professional woman. She is ten years older than Zhuo Yang.
