By the way, at this year's G14 conference, some delegates proposed to increase the number of matches in the Champions Cup, that is, to set up the second phase of the group stage. But it was soon met with opposition from Fiorentina-led clubs, and for good reason: a lengthy schedule would reduce fan interest and enthusiasm for the Champions Cup, and players would be more likely to be injured by playing too many games.

The most important thing is that sponsors and broadcasters will not reduce their investment because of the increase in the number of Champions League matches in the cost of sponsorship and television broadcasting, but because the suspense of the game will be reduced, after all, these people are not idiots, and they will certainly not be stupid to give away a lot of money for nothing.

Therefore, under the tandem of Zhuang Mingge and the strong refutation based on the above reasons, the second stage of the group stage that should have appeared this season was nipped in the bud!

The day after the Champions Cup group draw ceremony will be the day when the UEFA Super Cup final begins.

So, as is generally the case, the Champions League group stage results will obviously not be talked about for long, as the UEFA Super Cup that follows will soon dilute the minds of those who are talking about it, leaving them all focused on the game.

However, because the two sides of this UEFA Super Cup final are the new triple crown champion with a full lineup, the "Red Devils" Manchester United from the Premier League and the main players almost changed Vicenza, therefore, in the case of the disparity between the strength of the two teams, except for a few loyal Vicenza fans, the vast majority of fans believe that Manchester United will win the opponent without suspense in this game and win the second European Super Cup championship since its establishment!

If the Reds were against Vicenza, who had dragged Fiorentina into extra-time last season and faced the Purple Lilies in the final penalty shoot-out before losing for a full fifteen rounds, perhaps United fans would have been worried about whether the Red Devils would have been beaten in the final by a team with great willpower and miss out on a great chance to lift the trophy.

However, with the disintegration of the Vicenza side that broke the Cup Winners' Cup curse this summer, it is clear that it will be much less difficult for United to win the title.

It is precisely for this reason that many fans who are not looking forward to this Super Cup final have begun to devote their attention to the analysis of the qualifying shapes of each group in the Champions Cup.

As the team with the best record in the Champions League in the last four seasons, Fiorentina has naturally become one of the focus of attention of the fans!

"Antonio, your Fiorentina is really lucky this time, and they are still in a group with Dynamo Kyiv, which has been greatly reduced." On the evening of August 29, Francesca, who had been invited to the Louis II Stadium to watch the final of the European Super Cup, had just stepped into the VIP box booked by Zhuang Mingge, and said, "It's like our Parma, which is actually drawn with Dortmund and Feyenoord." ”

"Haha, our Florentine out-of-line shì is not as good as Francesca you think." Zhuang Mingge said politely casually, and then said, "In any case, Dynamo Kyiv and Galatasaray are both very strong teams, if you take it lightly, it is difficult to say what kind of result will be obtained." ”

Galatasaray's reputation may be limited to Turkey, but their player set-up is not bad at all. On the forward line, there is the Turkish national team's number one center Hakan Suker, the "midfield schemer" Haji and Popescu, the Romanian national team teammates who lead Galatasaray's midfield and backline respectively, plus the legendary Brazilian international Tafarel in the goalkeeper position, so in addition to the age of the players in the main lineup, Galatasaray can be said to have the ability to make other opponents in the same group drink a pot!

Moreover, unlike those European teams who despise Galatasaray because of their geographical relationship, Zhuang Mingge, who is familiar with history, clearly knows that Galatasaray has a glorious record of overturning AC Milan at home and successfully winning the UEFA Cup that season!

Suffice it to say, Galatasaray this season is at its peak since its inception!

However, Zhuang Mingge did not explain this to Francesca in detail, and the chairman of Parma, Mademoiselle, apparently thought that Zhuang Mingge's remarks were merely polite, and did not delve into his words.

So, after exchanging a few polite words to each other, Francesca and Zhuang Mingge sat down one after another, waiting for the start of the UEFA Super Cup final.

By the way, Francesca was the only non-Florentine person watching the game in this box, and besides her, whether it was Heynckes, who was deadlifted by Zhuang Mingge to watch the game, or Karin and Rebecca, they were all Florence's "own people".

The reason why Francesca was invited to watch the game together was because of the alliance between Fiorentina and Parma, and Francesca and Zhuang Mingge also had a good personal relationship, so it was logical to invite her to watch a game after the Champions League grouping; On the other hand, because of the previous conversation between Zhuang Mingge and Groz Jr., in order to ensure that Parma will not sell Buffon, a talented goalkeeper, to Juventus, Fiorentina's number one enemy in Italy, Zhuang Mingge must have a good relationship with Francesca, Parma's head of the family, from now on.

Maybe it's a bit utilitarian to say that, but the reality is so cruel. If Zhuang Mingge doesn't have a good relationship with Francesca and Parma now, and maybe people will really sell Buffon to Juventus under the joint offensive of money and personal relations, then he will want to cry without tears.

Just look at the faces of Juventus and AC Milan, two good friends known as the "Holy Alliance", at the moment of crisis. The Rossoneri, who were only penalized at the time, fell into the trap of Juventus, who had already been confirmed to be relegated, and wanted to buy Ibrahimovic and Gianluigi Buffon at a super low price, and the two clubs that were once very close completely tore their faces, and the new Juventus general manager Sekkoning was willing to sell the Swedish Pagoda to the sworn rival Inter Milan, and did not agree to sell it to a former ally.

Therefore, all Zhuang Mingge has to do now is that when Parma have a serious financial crisis, Francesca can be a little more biased towards the purple lily when Fiorentina and other teams are bidding. As long as she can do this, then Zhuang Mingge's efforts now are not in vain.

After all, although Zhuang Mingge is very rich, Juventus, who has the big backer of the Agnelli family, is not a poor ghost, and it is not impossible to play a gold yuan war with Fiorentina.
