From the Country Team To the Rich

  Chapter 459 UEFA League Points Ranking

  In this game, Hoffenheim’s opponent is Zurich, Switzerland.

  This team can be regarded as a wealthy team in the Swiss Super League, with 13 league championships, 10 Swiss Cup wins and two Champions League semi-finals.

  However, these are old things. Even though Zurich still has a strong competitiveness in the league, it has not played too well in the European arena.

  It can be said that changes in the football market are gradually widening the gap between strong teams and weak teams.

  Just like now, Hoffenheim is fourth in the Bundesliga, but they still have the qualifications to directly participate in the Europa League and are in the first tier of the seeded team.

  In contrast, Zurich won the league championship, but still has to play in the play-offs.

  This is the result of the UEFA points ranking.

  In the latest ranking of major league points announced by UEFA.

  The Premier League is in the first place.

  La Liga comes next.

  Serie A third place.

  The Bundesliga is in fourth place.

  Fifth in Ligue 1.

  These five teams form the five major leagues.

  Of course, there are also some controversies regarding this ranking.

  For example, the performance of Porto Sporting last season was so good, the Portuguese Super League should replace Ligue 1 as one of the new five league members.

   But perhaps it is inherent thinking, or it may be some obstacles to interests. Although the performance of Ligue 1 has been poor in recent years, he still has not fallen out of the top five leagues.

   UEFA’s rankings have already indicated the problem.

  Hoffenheim is a Bundesliga team, even if it is fourth, UEFA still admits that he is more competitive than Switzerland's first place.

  It has nothing to do with a rookie, no European war experience, etc. As long as you get this position, then UEFA will recognize your strength.

  As the first team, Hoffenheim has gained a lot of convenience

  For example, they can avoid some powerful teams in the group stage.

  Shaq united is very unlucky. They are in Group F with the Red Factory of the Premier League and CSKA of the Russian Super League. This is a real death group.

  Hoffenheim has insufficient experience in this group, but his strength is undoubtedly strong.

  After all, the fourth place in the Bundesliga has shown a lot of problems, which is not just a factor of luck.

  "This is the Dome Arena. The first game of the 2018/2019 UEFA Europa League Group A is about to begin, Hoffenheim VS Zurich."

  Poly’s passionate voice was transmitted in all directions through the dome speaker.

  "First of all, Hoffenheim's starting list."

  Hoffenheim (4-3-3):

  Goalkeeper: Ledom.

   Defenders: Ros Griman, Tedal, Rodimna, Cork Villa.

   Midfielder: Habr, Ludi Mod, Ranier.

   Forwards: Leo, Jamie, Ibsterui.

"Mr. Steven has the most confident 4-3-3 formation, but there have been some changes in the lineup. Rodimna and Cork Villa, who have just joined this season, appeared on the court and replaced them. Fan Chenggong and Silva's position."

   "I think we are not unfamiliar with these two players."

  "As the main players of Meazza Milan and the King's Society, they performed extremely well last season, and this is why we chose them."

   "It's just that, I didn't expect their debut will be in the Europa League, not the league!"

  Poli raised doubts after expressing his views.

  Generally speaking, they practiced in a stable and familiar league before putting them in the European war.

  But is Steven planning to train directly in the European war?

  Of course, this is because he does not understand the internal situation.

  Rodimner and Cork Villa merged quickly with the team, and both have experience in passing and controlling, and soon adapted to Hoffenheim's tactics.

  The most important thing is that their state is much better than Fan Chenggong and Silva.

  After all, these two people are getting older, and their physical indicators are declining.

  In contrast, Rodimna and Cork Villa are at their peak, and they have a certain understanding of the European war.

  Zurich (4-5-1):

  Goalkeeper: Breche.

   Defenders: Omerak, Keez, Elidi, Dag Willy.

  Midfielder: A. Macesano, Dubia, Hrife, Watanabe Nanxiong, Djemayli.

   Forward: Polero.

   Seeing the lineup, Polly analyzed; "Zurich still maintains a relatively conservative formation!"

  In fact, 4-5-1 can also be transformed into 4-2-3-1, which is not a conservative formation.

   But compared to Zurich's rampant 3-4-3 formation in the league, this is considered conservative.

   After all, Zurich is also considered a midfielder for Hoffenheim, and for this reason five midfielders are ranked.

   "We need to pay attention to Zurich's No. 8 Japanese player Watanabe Nanxiong and No. 6 Temayri."

   "These two players are the engine of this team. Most of Zurich's offense is initiated from the feet of the two. How to contain the two and control the rhythm is something Steven needs to consider."

  Listening to Polly, Hoffenheim fans are also looking for information online.

  George crackled to collect and search for information, surrounded by a group of people.

   "Isn't it? So strong? The combined assists of Nanxiong Watanabe and Zema Yili are almost over 40!"

   "And that Porriello, who scored 41 goals in a single season? Is Rui Chao such a good goal?"

  George hugged his head, looking at the data a little disturbed.

The fans beside    also talked about it:

  "I checked this Nanxiong Watanabe. He played in the Premier League before and then went to the Swiss Super League. Since he has landed in the top five leagues, his skills are worthy of recognition. Ignore this data, it is a bit exaggerated!"

  "Gemayli, he is a Swiss international. Have you forgotten last year's European Cup?"

   "Pollero is also very strong, 41 goals in a single season, this is a monster!"

  As everyone wailed, Lawrence on the side suddenly roared; "Stop arguing, it's better to shout two more slogans with this effort."

  "What's wrong with the beautiful data? Don't forget that it is the Swiss Super League. They are not in the top 20 in UEFA. Is this the same strength as the Bundesliga?"

  "Don't look at their beautiful data, we will disperse as soon as we rush!"

After    shouted, Lawrence turned around angrily, looking at the court with a flat expression, but his toes rushed to the ground, showing his inner anxiety.

  After all, this is Hoffenheim’s first European war!

  They have too little experience.

Do not! No experience at all!

  Now they can only groping forward, without a general understanding of the strength of the major leagues.

  I don’t know what kind of moisture is behind this gorgeous data.

  Anyway, this data really looks scary.

  At this time, on the court, the players of the two teams have already walked up.

  Everyone has a close-up lens, it can be seen that the expressions of the Hoffenheim players are extremely solemn.

  In contrast, the Zurich players seem to be more calm.

  Like, Hoffenheim is playing away.
