Ajax actually defeated Barcelona 2:1 at home!

Barcelona made some rotations in the lineup in this game, but Messi's absence has greatly affected the team's operation in the midfield and frontcourt.

Goals from Serrero and Hossen in the first half gave Ajax a 2-0 lead, and although Xavi pulled a goal back in the second half, it was still difficult to save Barcelona's fate of defeat.

As a result, the points ranking of this group becomes like this:

Hamburg has 13 points, Barcelona has 7 points, Ajax has 4 points and AC Milan has 3 points.

AC Milan was eliminated one round early, while Hamburg secured first place in the group one round early!

Since Barcelona also dominated the two-leg match against Ajax, Barcelona also qualified one round ahead of schedule as second in the group.

After hearing the news, Hamburg's coach and players were also happy and hugged in celebration.

The fans at the People's Park Stadium also began to cheer excitedly, cheering for all Hamburg players.

At first, they only hoped that the team could successfully avoid relegation;

Later, Pan Yi came and started winning, and they began to dream of entering the Champions League;

When they really enter the Champions League, they just hope that the team can perform well in the group stage, and they don’t think they can qualify;

Especially when Hamburg was placed in the group of death, few Hamburg players really felt that they could qualify;

but now……

They really did it!

And they exceeded their expectations!

Qualify two rounds in advance and secure first place in the group one round in advance!

You know, whether you are first in the group or second, the "treatment" after qualifying is very different.

Qualifying in first place means that Hamburg may be able to go further in the knockout rounds...

All the promises Pan Yi made to them came true. This was truly a day when dreams came true!

For a time, all the Hamburg fans in the audience were shouting:

"Burger! Pan Yi!"

"Burger! Pan Yi!"

"Burger! Pan Yi!..."

This voice once made Pan Yi think that if he endorsed or opened a burger chain store, would he also become one of the world's top 500...

And such shouts could not help but stop the Milan players who were about to walk off the court.

On the one hand, he won the first place in the group early, and on the other hand, he was eliminated early and went home. Naturally, the feeling here is not very pleasant.

And they couldn't blame Pan Yi.

Hamburg has already sent out all their substitutes in this game, and they still can’t win. Do you still have the nerve to raise the issue of the line?

You can't let the Hamburg players kick the ball into their own goal, right?

And those "Pan Yi's old players" in the Milan team, especially Mane, Ederson, De Sciglio and others, looked at Pan Yi who was being worshiped by the fans from a distance, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

They were thinking about the same thing:

If Pan Yi is still in Milan, then maybe they are the ones cheering now!

…

After the game, Hamburg's press conference room was almost packed.

Of course, the reporters were not here for Milan and Allegri. They just asked them a few polite questions and let them go.

As soon as Pan Yi came in and sat on the podium, he just smiled and didn't say anything. There was a burst of slaps from the audience and various hands were raised to ask questions.

A reporter asked: "Hamburg secured first place in the Group of Death one round ahead of schedule. Have you thought about this result before the game?"

Pan Yi smiled: "Of course I have thought about it. Because our goal in the Champions League has never been to qualify from the group. Defeating Barcelona and Milan has always been in my plan."

The reporter asked again: "Can you reveal which opponent you want to face in the top 16?"

Pan Yi said: "The situation of many groups is not clear yet, it is difficult to say. But I heard Neville and Keane said that if we meet Manchester United, we will die ugly, so I kind of hope to meet Manchester United.

.”

This is tantamount to expressing Inzaghi's "wishes".

Reporter: “But Manchester United is very likely to finish first in the group.”

Pan Yi smiled: "Well, I wish them good luck. But even if we meet in the final, I am confident that I can beat them."

Reporter: "When you say that, can I understand that you think Hamburg will definitely reach the final of the Champions League this season?"

Pan Yi waved his hand: "No, please don't understand me wrong, I didn't mean that... I mean, our Hamburg will definitely win the championship. Whoever wants to compete with us, we will defeat them!"

As soon as these words came out, the flashlight flashed wildly.

This is also the first time that Pan Yi has shouted out the slogan of winning the Champions League in public. He will definitely make headlines with the Hamburg team tomorrow.

"Marca" reporter asked: "So you predict that Hamburg and Manchester United will enter the Champions League final this season? Real Madrid has no chance?"

Pan Yi shook his head: "Maybe you really don't understand what I mean. If we want to win the championship, we won't care whether we encounter Manchester United, Real Madrid, Bayern or Chelsea on the way to promotion, nor will we care who we encounter in the final.

.In short, we must defeat all opponents!"

There were actually bursts of applause in the press conference hall, which came from many reporters from Hamburg local media and German media.

They are applauding Pan Yi, a young coach, for his confidence and bravery!

The "Sun" reporter asked the last question: "We noticed that you didn't eat on the sidelines today. What's the reason for this?"

Pan Yi patted the table: "I appreciate your perspective on the problem, and my answer is: I've finished eating the spicy strips! Also, before you ask such a question again next time, can you... bring me some British food?"

"

As we all know, "British Food" is one of the four thinnest books in the world together with "American History", "Italian Heroic Epic", and "Korean Sports Spirit"...

…

The next day, the headlines of all major sports newspapers were indeed occupied by Hamburg and Pan Yi.

Some are regular event reports:

"Pan Yi sent all his substitutes to play against his old club, but Milan struggled to win a victory and was unfortunately eliminated"

"Hamburg secured first place in the group one round ahead of schedule, Pan Yi smiled proudly in the group of death"

"The dust of Champions League Group H has settled, the only suspense left in the final round is who will play in the Europa League"

Some are about Pan Yi’s post-match remarks:

"Hamburg wants to win the Champions League! Pan Yi said something shocking after the game"

"Pan Yi publicly challenged Manchester United and said he could easily defeat his opponent"

"Pan Yi wants to copy Milan's Triple Crown? Objective analysis of whether Hamburg can achieve its goal at present"

Others are like "The Sun":

"Shocked! Hamburg coach Pan Yi openly asked our reporter for non-existent gifts after the game..."

…

On November 30, in the 14th round of the Bundesliga, Hamburg challenged Wolfsburg away.

At the Volkswagen Arena, 30,000 fans came to witness this round's highlight battle.

Wolfsburg's lineup this season is actually very good. There are stars on all three lines who can control the situation, so the record is also good, and they have climbed to the sixth position.

You can see it just by looking at their starting lineup today.

Center: Olic.

Frontcourt: Perisic, Alexander-Arnold, Caligiuri.

Midfielder: Medojevic, Gustavo.

Defenders: Ricardo Rodriguez, Knoch, Naldo, Oakes.

Goalkeeper: Benaglio.

Their head coach Dieter Heijing has been insisting on a 4231 style of play since he took over the team halfway through last season, and this season after adding strong reinforcements such as Perisic and Gustavo, he has started to play this

The formation is also handy.

On Pan Yi's side, he also sent all his main force.

This is the advantage of qualifying early for the Champions League.

Otherwise, with one game on the 28th and another on the 30th, only gods can withstand such a terrifying schedule.

Since Hamburg's main players were fully rested during the match against Milan, they will not be in the dilemma of being short of major generals when they play this crucial battle against Wolfsburg.

After this game ends, Hamburg will usher in a third round match of the German Cup four days later. The opponent is the second division team Cologne, and they will also be drawn at home.

Since the pressure is not great, Pan Yi can safely rotate again when the time comes, so that he can comfortably enter a virtuous cycle.
