The eventful 22-23 Champions League group stage will end, with the first and second places in each group to be decided, and the round of 16 match will be decided.
In the draw for the round of 16 in Nyonce, Switzerland, Turkish legend Hamit Alintop helped the round of 16 match, and it is expected that big clubs will face off in the round of 16.
First, Leipzig’s opponent was decided. Leipzig, who was second in Group F, faced Manchester City, the top club in Group G, and for Leipzig, he again met Holland, who he saw at Dortmund last season.
But Leipzig was never a pushover. He had the firepower to give his first loss to Real Madrid, who had been unbeaten in the season, and was drawing much attention to whether Manchester City would win the Champions League this season.
Next, the round of 16 match between Cluf Brugge and Benfica was decided. Brugge settled for a difficult second place in Group B due to poor performances by Atletico Madrid and Leverkusen, while Benfica, the top-ranked player in Group H, faced the Belgian club.
Benfica proudly topped Group H, where PSG were likely to be No. 1, and the match between the two teams, which had not received much attention, was likely to receive less attention than the other round of 16.
Next, Liverpool VS Real Madrid met in the Champions League. The two teams, who met in the Champions League final last season, will compete in the round of 16 in the 22-23 season, which is somewhat early.
Liverpool was under a lot of concern for its unstable appearance, and the atmosphere of the two teams was the opposite, with Real Madrid recording consecutive wins.
However, as Liverpool is strong against strong teams, it could be said that it was a big match in the round of 16 amid keen attention on what would happen against Real Madrid.
Next was the match between AC Milan vs Tottenham. AC Milan, who finished second behind Chelsea in Group E, met Tottenham, who finished first in the group after fierce competition in Group D, while Son Heung-min faced the Italian Serie Defending champion.
Above all, it was a showdown between Lean and Son Heung-min, and for Conte, who took the helm of Inter and Juventus in the past, the opponent of his former team rival AC Milan was scheduled to come special.
Next came Frankfurt vs Napoli. Last season’s Europa League winner, Frankfurt, showed themselves in the round of 16 and Napoli still advanced to the round of 16 with just one loss to Liverpool.
Kim Min-jae, Daichi Kamada, and Makoto Hasebe could be expected to play a match between Korea and Japan, and Frankfurt was paying attention to how to beat Napoli, who had only experienced one loss during the season.
The match between Dortmund and Chelsea was then. Puli-style THE B? Aubameyang Derby? was a match between the Bundesliga’s eternal second-place team and the Champions of the 20-21 season.
Looking at the recent atmosphere, many fans were expected to watch with interest, with enough fun games expected.
Next came the match between Inter Milan and Porto. Porto, the No. 1 player in Group B, will face Inter Milan, the No. 2 player in Group C, who was called the Death Group.
A fierce confrontation between the two teams was expected, and the most notable match was the showdown between PSG VS Bayern Munich.
They will meet once again in the Champions League stage. Those who faced off in the Champions League without spectators due to Corona in the 19-20 season met in the round of 16 this season, and Neymar, who shed tears at the time, had to fight a revenge match.
With Mbappe, Neymar, and Messi trio topple Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich had to show off its organizational power completed with Chupo-Motting to PSG.
