Inter Milan entered Group A, not only being in the same group as Arsenal again, but also allowing A to form a veritable group of death.

Soon, Valencia entered Group B, and this group was not easy. Valencia's strength declined with Mendieta's departure, but the combat effectiveness of the Bat Corps is still not weak.

The other teams were subsequently drawn out one by one.

With the appearance of the last guest Michel Platini, all the teams in the fourth tier were also drawn out, and the results of the draw for the second round of the Champions League group stage have come out:

After the lottery ceremony, the situation analysis of each group naturally became a hot topic of discussion in the major media.

The "Guardian" believes that if Arsenal want to qualify from the group, the key is to play well at home. When facing opponents with similar strength or even stronger strength than themselves, scoring 3 points at home is the right way.

The newspaper believes that Real Madrid's strength is slightly stronger in Group A, and the two teams are similar to Arsenal.

"The Times" expressed optimism about Arsenal's qualifying prospects. The newspaper believed that apart from Real Madrid, Inter Milan was Arsenal's defeat.

As for Dortmund, the overall strength of the team is relatively average. It is a team that relies on overall combat. When fighting the Germans, it must overwhelm the opponent in terms of mental state and willpower.

The "Sun" predicted the qualifying teams of the four groups. They believed that Real Madrid, Arsenal, Manchester United, Valencia, Juventus, Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern and Liverpool would qualify from the group and enter the quarterfinals.

Compared with the English media, the Spanish media has a different view.

"Aspen" believes that Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia are all in a difficult group, especially Barcelona and Valencia are still fighting a civil war, which is undoubtedly a huge loss to La Liga.

Regarding the prospect of Real Madrid, the newspaper is still relatively optimistic. The biggest opponent of the group is Arsenal. How to watch the offense of Du Shasha and Diving Luo is the key to success or failure.

"Daily Sports Daily" expressed gloat over Real Madrid's deep death group. The newspaper believed that the defending champion might not be able to get out of the group, because every opponent in Group A was easy to deal with.

As for Barcelona's situation, the newspaper is very optimistic. There is a well-known opponent in the team, Valencia, which is good news for Barcelona to score points, and Manchester United is not as strong as imagined. This Manchester United team has started to go downhill.

The Serie A media expressed their excitement that four Serie A teams have entered the second round of the group.

"Corriere dello Sport" believes that the UEFA draw ceremony is very fair. Although Roma and AC Milan are in the same group, the two teams have the strength to advance together. As long as they jointly kill Bayern, they may even be in the quarterfinals of the Champions League. The grand occasion of four Serie A teams appeared again.

"Turin Sports Daily" also expressed optimism that Juventus qualifying from Group C is easy, except that Leverkusen can cause a little trouble for Juventus, Ajax and Basel are undoubtedly wonderful training objects.

As for the prospects of Inter Milan's qualifying, the newspaper is not optimistic. In front of the powerful Real Madrid and the excellent Du Shasha, Inter Milan needs to improve its defense.

"Gazzetta dello Sport" believes that both AC Milan and Inter Milan need to put in all their efforts before they can hope to qualify from the group. The newspaper also believes that strengthening defense is the key to the team's scoring.

It is no secret that AC Milan and Inter Milan have been weak in European competitions in recent years. The Rossoneri have long lost their courage in the past, and the lack of top stars is the key to the team's repeated failures.Although the Nerazzurri have aliens to help out, the offensive power of Real Madrid and Arsenal is also huge. How to keep the goal clean is the subject that Rijkaard should focus on.

The Bundesliga media is relatively pertinent. "Kicker" believes that Bayern, Leverkusen and Dortmund all need to face opponents of similar strength. Among them, Bayern's situation is better, and the other two teams must fight every game if they want to qualify. try best.

The start date of the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage is November 11. In addition to strengthening preparations, the teams will continue to play in the domestic league.

Arsenal's opponent this week is Newcastle United. Shearer has rejuvenated this season and has scored 12 goals in the first 14 rounds, leading the scorer list.

However, at Highbury Stadium, Newcastle United can only assume a defensive counterattack posture.

Both Du Shasha and Diving Luo have become the focus of marking. In general, Newcastle United's defense is not only fierce, but also very straightforward in blocking positions and stealing, leaving no chance for Arsenal. The two played in the first half. There are very few chances to even shoot.

Of course, Newcastle United's counterattack could not be played, and Arsenal's midfielder also did a good job, directly cutting off the connection between Shearer and Newcastle United's midfield.

Seeing the situation on the field, Wenger and Keegan were very helpless. In the first half, the two teams played 0:0.
In the second half, Du Shasha and Diving Luo switched positions again, and Vieira also began to strengthen the through pass in the middle, making use of Diving Luo's strong body and foot speed to make a fuss.

This arrangement soon paid off, and Newcastle United's defense finally began to loosen.

After Diving Luo came to the middle, he began to act as a shit stick, and quickly disrupted Newcastle United's defense.

In the 62nd minute, Diving Luo took the ball in the middle and forced a breakthrough. At the moment of starting, O'Brien was left behind. Received a yellow card.

The Highbury stadium suddenly became jubilant, and the fans began to look forward to Du Shasha's ability to stand up again and break the deadlock on the field.

But to the surprise of the fans, it was not Du Shasha standing in front of the ball, but Diving Luo!
"Hey, what plane are you doing? Let Du Shasha take the penalty!"

"Portuguese boy, you can't do it, let Du Shasha come."

"Courage is commendable, but can his footwork compare to Du Shasha?"

"Is Wenger trying to reshape a frontcourt core?"

The fans shouted one after another. Obviously, everyone did not think that Diving Luo's free kick skills would be better than Du Shasha.

Diving Luo's face is a bit ugly. During training, Diving Luo's free kick is actually very threatening. Du Shasha also intends to give this little brother some pointers. It can be said that after coming to Arsenal, Diving Luo's development speed is faster than in other places. A space-time is much faster.

At least on set pieces, Diving Luo is now an out-and-out master.

"Do you want to see Dushi's arc? Then I will do a Roche's arc!"

Diving Luo thought to himself.

The whistle blew, Diving Luo swung his legs on the spot, the ball left the ground quickly, drew a wonderful arc, and went straight to Newcastle United's goal!
