Tottenham, who were in the group of death, secured qualification two rounds ahead of schedule. This result surprised countless experts. Although Tottenham have performed extremely well this season and have won all three games in the Champions League, many people are still lucky and believe that Ajax, who is at the bottom of the group, can successfully stop them in the fourth round of the group stage. Tottenham, thus giving Bayern and Juventus a chance to join forces to qualify.
However, it turns out that these people are just wishful thinking. In this round of competition, Tottenham gave no room for maneuver to other opponents. They directly defeated Ajax with a 4-2 victory and got a ticket to the Champions League quarter-finals two rounds in advance!
If someone dares to say that Tottenham can qualify two rounds ahead of schedule when the Champions League group draw is over, then he will definitely incur the ridicule of others and think that he is daydreaming - Tottenham's strength is indeed not bad. Otherwise, it would be impossible to beat the rising Chelsea and traditional giants such as Manchester United and Liverpool to win the Premier League runner-up last season. But the problem is that the two top giants in the same group as Tottenham are Juventus and Bayern, as well as Zeman. Ajax! The existence of these teams is enough to make Tottenham's promotion path this season bleak!
Therefore, when this daydream really became a reality, Tottenham fans naturally fell into extreme joy!
"To be honest, when UEFA announced the group draw results, we were already in despair. Because Juventus and Bayern Munich are too strong, and Ajax is not weak either. So, watching When Tottenham actually became the first team in the group of death to qualify for the group, our excitement was simply beyond words." During a random interview with a Times reporter, a Tottenham fan said He said what everyone felt, "I would like to especially thank Mr. Nelson here. Without him, Tottenham would never have been able to develop to its current heights!"
It can be said that as Tottenham breaks out of the group of death and takes the lead in the league standings, George's reputation among Tottenham fans has been brushed to an unprecedented height. And Tottenham, which has repeatedly refreshed people's understanding with practical actions, also quietly caused a white storm in European football with its excellent results!
Tottenham have locked a spot in the Champions League last 16 two rounds in advance. This means that Bayern Munich, which has only three points in the group stage with one win and three losses, has been brought back from the brink by Tottenham and Juventus. Kicked me down!
Being eliminated from the Champions League group stage twice in three years is obviously an absolutely unacceptable result for Bayern Munich, the Bundesliga hegemon. Therefore, during this period of time, Magath, as the coach of Bayern, has naturally been questioned. Many fans have even put up banners, hoping that Bayern's top management can invite Hitzfeld to coach the team - even though Hitzfeld coached at Bayern. The results in the last two seasons were quite dismal, but at least this meritorious coach once led Bayern to another peak in the club's history. His coaching experience and team leadership level are both superior choices.
The most important thing is that after witnessing Magath's poor performance in the Champions League this season, those Bayern fans who had insisted on Hitzfield's dismissal finally recognized the fact that the team had a poor record in those two years. It's not Hitzfield's problem, but the team's lack of timely replacement after the main players aged.
However, even if Bayern wants to make up for it, squeezing out Juventus at the last moment to get the remaining top 16 ticket is probably unrealistic. Not only because Juventus is already six points ahead of them and only needs one more point to ensure qualifying, but also because at this time, the two direct confrontations between them and the Bianconeri have come to an end!
You know, in these two meetings with Juventus, Bayern lost both games. According to the rules of ranking teams with the same points in the Champions League group stage first according to the merits of their matches against each other, even if Bayern, which is six points behind, won the last two rounds of the group stage, and Juventus lost two games, the Bundesliga giant It's impossible to be ahead of the Bianconeri in the standings!
Therefore, if Magath still wants to continue coaching at Bayern instead of being fired midway through the season and becoming a short-lived ghost like Rehagel, he must perform well in the last two rounds of the group stage and lead the team to win a Tickets to the UEFA Cup, and go hand in hand with the Bundesliga and UEFA Cup, it is best to get both trophies in your pocket!
Let’s stop talking about Bayern’s situation for now, and now turn our attention back to Tottenham. Although Tottenham players only got two days of rest after the game against Ajax, this is not a problem for Tottenham with a deep bench. Of course, the main reason why I describe it this way is because Tottenham’s opponent this weekend is Charlton, who are in the same London as them - if Tottenham faces Arsenal or Chelsea next, opponent, then Tottenham, which just had a battle with Ajax, will face a tough battle.
Because of previous financial crises that almost led to bankruptcy, Charlton Club has strictly adhered to the principle of living within its means after returning to the Premier League. However, although strict compliance with this principle has allowed Charlton to become one of the clubs with the best financial situation in England, it has also caused Charlton to hover in the middle of the standings and has never been able to improve in terms of results. Go one step further.
In addition, although strong reinforcements such as Danny Murphy and Francis Jeffries were introduced in the summer, and the team also has many powerful players such as Kishishev, Konchesky, Luke Young, etc., due to their The main forward, Italian veteran Di Canio resolutely returned to China this summer to help the troubled Lazio. Therefore, Charlton's creativity and threat in the midfield and frontcourt have declined significantly compared with last season, and the defense has also begun to change. It is no longer stable.
It is precisely because of Charlton's weakness on the offensive end that they can only create scoring opportunities through long-range shots and long passes from Danny Murphy and others. Tottenham were able to rotate most of the starting lineup and still be able to achieve good results on both offense and defense. Duan suppressed his opponent and Villa scored the only goal of the game in the 46th minute!
In this way, when the game was declared over at the whistle of referee Graham Ball, the home Spurs players defeated the visiting Charlton 1-0 at White Hart Lane and won the title of the season. The eleventh league victory also extended their unbeaten streak in the league to twenty-seven games!
