Different from previous seasons, there will basically be a strong dialogue. Judging from the results in 2023, this season's 1/8 finals did not have the expected "super dialogue", and Inter Milan's encounter with Atletico Madrid was the biggest attraction.
According to the arrangement, the rules for drawing lots for the top teams in the Champions League 16 are as follows: eight teams are the first seeded teams, eight teams are the second unseeded teams, and the seeded teams play against the unseeded teams. 1/8 finals. In addition, the first 16 matches follow the avoidance principle of the same league and the same group, while the second round of the group match is home first and then away.
Compared with previous seasons, many strong teams will stage their peak matchups in the 1/8 finals in advance, and this year's lottery results are obviously somewhat disappointing. The so-called strong dialogue is not staged in advance. Among the eight groups, it seems that only Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid are close in strength, and one of the other seven groups is in an obvious dominant position.
Manchester city is full of good luck:
The new season's Champions League knockout has been announced, and every game is full of fierce competition and highlights. In this football feast, Manchester City is considered to be bursting with luck, the fate of Greater Paris has changed, and Serie A teams are in danger of being swept out of the house by the League.
Defending champion Manchester City seems to be very lucky in the draw of 16. Their opponent is Copenhagen, which looks relatively easy to fight on the surface. Manchester City has been in excellent form recently, and Copenhagen is a relatively weak team, which gives Manchester City a greater chance of promotion.
But in football, luck is often unpredictable, so Manchester City also needs to be cautious and cannot be taken lightly. Generally speaking, the announcement of the Champions League 16 match excited the whole football world. Every game will be a visual feast, and fans will cheer for the teams they support.
This is the charm of football match, which makes people feel passion and uncertainty in the game. I hope that this round of Champions League knockout can bring more wonderful moments to the fans, and I also hope that all teams can show their best level at critical moments.
