    Real Madrid is out!  Dortmund qualify!

    Since the 1995-96 season, Real Madrid, which has entered the knockout stages of the Champions League for seven consecutive seasons, encountered Waterloo in this group stage. Their results in the six rounds were two wins, three draws, and one loss, with nine points. However, in their  Above are Dortmund, who have three wins, two draws and one loss, with 11 points, and AC Milan, with four wins, two losses and 12 points!

    Dortmund has entered the knockout stages of the Champions League for the first time since the 1997-98 season!

    In the eyes of some people, this seems to be a reincarnation, which means that one myth begins to decline and another begins to rise!

    But in the eyes of most people, there is nothing more than one thing - Dortmund has Dick, so they have achieved this. Real Madrid will encounter this situation because they encountered Dick!

    "Leading Dortmund, which is not particularly strong, into the knockout round, Dick has shown his ability! Now eight teams participating in the knockout round have been produced. They are Atletico Madrid and Valencia from La Liga.  Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan from Serie A, Borussia Dortmund from the Bundesliga, Ajax from the Eredivisie and Manchester United from the Premier League! This year's Champions League quarterfinals are full of gold, although Real Madrid failed in the group stage.  He is in a death group, but it cannot erase the value of the top eight! Now, the draw ceremony for the top eight is about to be held at the UEFA base camp in Lausanne, Switzerland. What will the final confrontation of this season look like?  Let¡¯s wait and see!¡±

    After gaining the right to qualify in the away game, Dick did not return to Dortmund with the team, but flew to Switzerland alone to participate in the draw ceremony for the quarterfinals.

    There are only seven head coaches who are qualified to go with him - Ancelotti of AC Milan, Lippi of Juventus, Cooper of Inter Milan, Aragones of Atletico Madrid, and Beni of Valencia.  Tes, Ferguson of Manchester United, Koeman of Ajax!

    There is no doubt that these people are the elites of current European football, including the old, middle and young generations, and basically they are the representatives of European football in the past few decades. The quarterfinals of this Champions League are indeed the best in recent years.  The most valuable session of the year!

    Three Serie A teams have entered the quarterfinals, allowing Serie A to wipe out the decline of previous years. For Serie A teams, what they don¡¯t want is to kill each other in the quarterfinals

    Dick doesn¡¯t care much about the result of the draw. No matter which team he encounters, it will definitely be a tough battle. Is there any doubt about this?  Dortmund qualified as second in the group, so they will definitely meet the first place in the other three groups. The first place in the other three groups are Atletico Madrid, Valencia and Manchester United. No matter who they meet, they will all  It is not an easy opponent to deal with, and Dortmund is still playing host first and then guest, so at this time, Dick seemed very calm.

    There were only eight coaches on site. Dick said hello to Aragones, but had no communication with Benitez. He had no friendship with Benitez, but his relationship with Aragones was okay.  As for the other people, Ferguson had a relationship with him. Dick hugged the old Sir Alex and said jokingly: "Sir, I heard that you are retiring. Is it true?"

    Ferguson pressed his chest and laughed: "It shouldn't happen now The operation was successful, a pacemaker was installed, and I can still work as a coach for a few years!"

    "I think so too." Dick touched his chin, and then said to Ferguson seriously: "Jazz, I can tell you for sure that you can coach for at least ten yearsAt that time, you will be Manchester United.  The greatest head coach in history, no one can compare with you.¡±

    "Is that so?" Ferguson laughed loudly: "Then I will definitely persist until ten years later!"

    After a few words of greeting, Dick and Aragones sat together. Aragones congratulated Dick on leading his team to eliminate Real Madrid, and Dick also sincerely congratulated Aragones.  When placed in a group with Inter Milan, Newcastle and Leverkusen, a wave of three consecutive victories laid the foundation for qualifying from the group. Aragones' work is indeed the most important.

    "It was a mistake to let Thuram go." Dick said rudely: "Machena also performed well, but a central defender like Thuram can be used as a basic central defender in any team for three or four years.  , Even if Juventus pays 20 million euros, they can't let him go so easily."

    Aragones shrugged his shoulders: "What can I do? Don't forget that I don't have the power to transfer."

    Dick laughed: "Brother, let's go to a better club if we have a chance."

    "Are you trying to shake our military morale?" Aragones also laughed.

      Dick laughed, and at this time the lottery ceremony had already begun

    Different from the complicated drawing ceremony before, this time the drawing is very simple - because there will be another draw in the semi-finals. What is determined now is only the quarter-finals matchup list, so the current champion  The cup draw is indeed very troublesome. UEFA has decided to cancel the second group stage next year and start the knockout stage restructuring immediately after the group stage. After all, although the two group stages have created more economic income for the club, they have  Putting the entire club under huge competition pressure, if the system is restructured, there will be four fewer games in the Champions League, and the team will be much more relaxed.

    The first to be drawn are the second-placed teams, Dortmund, Inter Milan, Ajax, and Juventus.

    ?Then the opponent who was drawn was Ajax. They met AC Milan, the first team in Dortmund's group. The next one to be drawn was Dortmund's opponent.

    Platini took out a small paper ball, took a look at it, and said calmly: "Atletico Madrid."

    There was an uproar in the audience, Dick shook his head, and then extended his hand to Aragones: "It's a pleasure to cooperate." Aragones shook hands with him with a wry smile - to name a few second places  Among them, the last one Aragones wants to encounter is Dortmund. Although they may be worse than Inter Milan and Juventus in terms of strength, Dick is the head coach who is most familiar with Atletico Madrid. Even Alla  He may not be familiar with Goness, and with the admiration of Atletico Madrid players for him, when they encounter the team led by Dick, they may be a little weak at first!

    After this draw ceremony, Dick's Dortmund once again stole the show. The confrontation between them and Atletico Madrid became the biggest news and the most watched game in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Although there were other matches  Juventus is competing against a giant like Manchester United, but most of the attention is on the two games between Dick and his old club!

    The scene of the helpless Dick shaking hands with the wry-smiling Aragones was captured by a reporter. Later, the photo was sold for a high price because people thought that this photo could best illustrate the current mood of both parties.

    Dick must be very helpless when he meets Atletico Madrid, and Dortmund fans will not feel very good about it. After all, Atletico Madrid is the defending champion, and the results in the group stage are very good, and Aragones' wry smile can also represent  The mentality of the entire Atletico Madrid is that the last thing they want to encounter is a team led by Dick. Even if Dortmund may be worse than them in terms of overall strength, what's more terrible is that they still can't completely shake off the past and face them.  The team led by Dick booed, because they were facing a team that had just eliminated Real Madrid, which made them extremely happy, and it was a team led by Dick!

    The words of an Atletico Madrid fan in an interview are very representative: "I feel very complicated now. I know this is professional football, and I also know that Dick is our enemy now, but I can't hate him. Maybe during the game  We will boo him, but no matter what the circumstances, we will still like him. We must know that he led us to win the Champions League and brought about the most glorious scene in the history of the club. It was not his betrayal and wanting to leave.  , but because of some other reasons After leaving Atletico Madrid, he did not poach Atletico Madrid, and even eliminated Real Madrid What I want to say now is, Dick, no matter what the final results of these two games are,  None of us will bear any grudge against you.¡±

    Such words are quite common among Atletico Madrid fans. Even those Atletico Madrid fans who had opposed Dick because of Kiko have remained silent. On the contrary, Dick did not say anything about the upcoming face of Atletico Madrid.  Opinion - People can understand his news silence at this time. The reporters know that Dick will break his silence when Atletico Madrid comes to the Westfalenstadion in two weeks.

    The home game against Atletico Madrid will be on April 9, which is twenty days later. During this period, Dortmund will play two rounds of league games, including a FIFA match day. Next, it will be the championship.  The cup reaches its climax!

    "We have to do our best in these two rounds of the league Our schedule will become more and more intensive in the future, and sometimes we may make some mistakes, so before the start of the Champions League knockout rounds, we at least cannot let Bayern take the lead.  Zoom out. The twenty-ninth round is when we play against Bayern. According to the schedule, it is before our second round of knockout rounds This schedule is not very beneficial to us, so we can't relax in any way. Do you understand?  ?¡±

    Dick knew that before the knockout rounds began, it was the only time Dortmund could breathe a sigh of relief. Although there was a FIFA match day, there were not many international players in Dortmund at the moment. They were just Olic, Frings, Vaughns,  Metzelder, Kehl, Lehmann???Rosicky and others can get enough rest. Now he doesn't plan to use any rotation. The most he can do is let young players like Rosicky who are not particularly physically fit take a rest and let them perform at their best in the Champions League.  Best condition.

    On March 22, Dortmund challenged Bielefeld away.

    In this game, Dick rotated Rosicky and Okocha. This game was very difficult. Although Bielefield is currently ranked in the middle, they are not very far from the relegation zone, so they will not give up at home, not to mention  They have a physical advantage.

    It was almost a close contest, with Dortmund having no upper hand. At this time, Rivaldo showed his value. In the second half, he used a wonderful long-range shot from outside the penalty area to help Dortmund win this difficult game.  After winning the game, Dick breathed a sigh of relief when the final whistle sounded. Bayern also showed signs of decline, but they still defeated Rostock 1-0 and continued to chase behind them with a two-point disadvantage.  , after 26 rounds, Dortmund has 64 points, while Bayern has 62 points. Stuttgart, which is currently in third place, only has 46 points. It is completely impossible to cause any harm to the top two.  The only threat, their opponent, is each other.
