Unlike in previous years, the draw of the Champions League quarter-finals left the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland for the first time, but was placed on the venue of the Champions League final.
This time it was Paris City Hall, France.
The draw began on time at 12 o'clock and was broadcast live to the world.
At the Milanello training base in Milan, Italy, Kaka and AC Milan teammates also sat in front of the TV in the lounge and watched the live TV, caring about the opponents the team would meet next.
According to the lottery rules, this time, eight teams will be divided into the upper and lower halves. Unlimited lottery, the same national team can meet.
In an interview with the media, AC Milan's Galliani said in the interview that the least desired team is Inter Milan, but this team has stopped at the quarterfinals and they have no fear.
As for Juventus, AC Milan is not so afraid.
Capello's team has played a little conservatively this season, and the offensive ability is not strong. The main thing is the excellent defense.
The double midfielder formed by Vieira and Emerson is really extravagant, plus Capello's coaching style has always been stable, making Juventus play in the league or the Champions League this season. Not pretty.
Capello's one-to-zero doctrine has once again been criticized by the outside world, but it can't stand the stability of others.
Ac Milan beat Juventus 3-1 at home in the league and are not afraid of this team.
Outside of Serie A, AC Milan is less willing to meet Rijkaard ’s Barcelona, which is the most aggressive team in Europe this season. No one has to fear a three-pointer.
In addition, ac Milan does not fear any opponent!
Kaka sat among his teammates and did not participate in the discussion of his teammates, but he remembered Yang Yang in his mind.
Will he win Ajax?
This thought has been lingering in Kaka's mind.
AC Milan's strength is indeed better than Ajax, but it is impossible to say that the victory is stable.
...
The lottery was held under the auspices of UEFA CEO Olsen. In 1998, France ’s main center, Laurent Blanco, served as a guest of draw. Real Madrid ’s Gento Gento and last year ’s Champions League champion Liverpool captain Jay Rad took the trophy to play, and passed the trophy to Olsen, handed over to Paris Mayor Delano.
Starting today, the Saint-Blaude Cup will be publicly exhibited in Paris to the final day.
Gento is one of the Real Madrid players who won the first Champions League. He is also the only player in the world who has won six championship cups. Nobody has reached his height in the past few decades.
You can see through the live TV footage that ac Milan's general manager Galliani is on the scene.
The draw of the eight teams went quickly.
The first to be drawn was the first matchup in the first half. Benfica from the Portuguese Super League was drawn to Barcelona in La Liga.
This sign made the Barcelona representative excited. Everyone knows that this has basically announced that Barcelona has entered the semi-finals in advance.
With the strength of Rijkaard's team, Benfica couldn't possibly snipe them.
The first group in the second half was drawn against Lyon against Villarre.
This suddenly let the lottery scene and the TV set take a breath.
Four teams came out, the remaining four teams are Ajax, Arsenal, Juventus and AC Milan.
Regardless of how these four teams draw, they will be a strong matchup.
Among them, Ajax's overall strength is relatively weak, Arsenal, Juventus and AC Milan will be relatively better.
In the next small ball drawn by Blanco, after opening, the third team in the first half is Ajax.
…………
…………
Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Yang Yang did not go to nap as usual, but stayed in the lounge area to watch the live broadcast.
He also cares about the team's opponents in the next game.
The moment Olson announced Ajax ’s name, he clearly felt a breath of cold air in the rest area.
Everyone started to get nervous.
In theory, Ajax has the possibility of encountering Arsenal, but this is not necessarily a good thing for the Dutch team.
The two teams have played in two group games, and the second game did not perform very well. The first game was Ajax's two-to-one win at home. It seems to have a certain advantage. In fact, Arsenal v. Aja Kex will understand better.
Juventus is hard to tangle, the defense is very good, there are two former Ajax players in the team, Ibrahimovic and Trabelsi. If you simply look at the strength of the lineup, Ajax is really There is no advantage.
The double midfielder formed by Vieira and Emerson, plus Nedved and Camoranesi, Ajax ’s midfield is difficult to carry opponents, and will likely fall into the likes of last season. Such a difficult situation.
But Yang Yang did not mind meeting Juventus, because he wanted to see if he had made progress this year.
I could n’t break the copper walls and iron walls of Juventus a year ago. Can I break it a year later?
However, he most wanted to meet ac Milan.
This team's midfield strength is not bad. Although the three midfielders composed of Seedorf, Pirlo and Gattuso have excellent ability to pass and control the ball, the defensive problems are not small. It is still one of the strongest teams in European football.
The reason why Yang Yang wants to touch ac Milan is because he still remembers the grudge two years ago and the challenge book he gave to Kaka.
...
Looking at the TV screen, Blanco drew another small ball, and the Ajax players were particularly nervous.
Yang Yang was also somewhat disturbed. After all, this lottery is related to the future trend of the team, but he still smiled calmly and appeased his teammates.
"Don't be nervous, no matter who the drawn opponent is, just hit it!"
Hearing Yang Yang say this, the teammates also slightly relieved some of the burden.
Blanco unscrewed the ball and handed the note to Olson, who turned it over neatly.
"Ac Milan!"
There was an obvious exclamation in the venue.
In other words, another matchup in the second half is no longer necessary, Arsenal against Juventus.
The reason to draw again is to decide home and away.
Ajax touch AC Milan!
Yang Yang's long-awaited duel is finally here!
"Get what you want!" Yang Yang stood up and said cruelly.
Sneijder, Maxwell and De Jong all nodded.
As early as September, when Yang Yang invited everyone to eat in the Shenji Chinese restaurant in Almere, he had already expressed his attitude and wanted to touch ac Milan, but then Ajax and ac Milan were the first group, naturally impossible meet.
And the quarter-finals can be met, it is indeed good luck.
"It's been two years, and the grudge two years ago is also time to resolve!" Yang Yang shouted loudly.
"Yes, these two years have been suffocating, and now it's just a breath away!" Sneijder also shouted loudly.
According to the schedule, Ajax is the first to come after the second, relatively speaking, the schedule is more favorable.
But in the end, the football game depends on strength.
"Kaka, the two of us finally met!" Yang Yang muttered to himself with a fist.
What he did not know was that at the same time, at the Milanello training base, Kaka was also full of expectations.
"Since I have encountered it, I can beat you down two years ago, and I can still make you bow your head two years later!"

The results of the draw for the quarter-finals knockout match immediately triggered an uproar in the world.
The drawing of the shady lottery is once again clamoring.
The reason is very simple. Ajax and AC Milan are the most impressive teams in the current Champions League.
AC Milan's top 16 elimination round eliminated Bayern Munich with a total score of 5-2 at home and away. This transcript is not something any team can do, because Bayern Munich is not inferior to other giants.
However, the Red and Black Legion did not fall on the road, and were completely suppressed at home, showing a very good ability to control the game.
However, the Red and Black Legion's problem is also obvious, that is defense.
Whether it is the back line or goalkeeper Dida, this season is unsatisfactory, especially Dida. After two seasons of perfect performance, the Brazilian goalkeeper's state has fallen sharply this season.
Another problem is that the left back, whether it is Sergio or Jankulovski, has no reassuring performance, and Nesta's partner also has hidden dangers, which makes people doubt AC Milan. .
Ajax ’s resume is equally good, the group beat Arsenal qualifying, defeating Real Madrid four to one in the round of 16 of the 16 rounds, also the most eye-catching result of the Champions League this season, especially the young man Yang Yang ’s hat trick is even more shining lofty.
Interestingly, Ajax's problem is also defensive.
Shevchenko and Yang Yang are currently leading the UEFA Champions League with eight goals. The two leading shooters are in excellent condition, and the defense of both teams has weaknesses and deficiencies, which also makes many people say that this It will be a full show.
However, from a comprehensive evaluation point of view, AC Milan is even better and there is no suspense in winning.
Galliani said in an interview with the media after attending the draw in Paris, "Ajax is not an easy team to deal with. They have very good players and a top scorer in Europe. There are also experienced coaches, which makes this team not easy to deal with. "
"But we are still confident that we can beat our opponents and advance to the semifinals."
Ac Milan's general manager then said that he was more worried about the semi-finals than the quarterfinals.
"We were divided into the first half, and after entering the semi-finals, we will meet Barcelona, which will obviously be our biggest test, because Barcelona is currently the number one popular team in the Champions League."
Regarding Galliani's statement, the domestic Dutch media expressed their dissatisfaction, thinking that Galliani lacked respect for Ajax, and he had already begun to look ahead to the semi-finals in advance even before the quarter-final knockouts had started .
Ajax coach Ronald Coleman made it clear in an interview with the media, "We are indeed not a strong European team, but it is definitely not a weak underdog."
Yang Yang was also in the 28th round of the Dutch League, the day before playing against Eindhoven at home, according to the club's arrangement to be interviewed by the media.
He firmly said, "We will use our performance to make any team that ignores us pay the most painful price!"
