Just a few moments ago, the draw for the AFC Champions League group stage was held. The first draw was made for the West Zone and the second for the East Zone. The complete groupings are as follows. First, let's take a look at the West Zone grouping. The grouping of the Western Zone looks like this, Group A: Tashkent Cotton Farmers, Fayha, Al Ahar, Al Ain; Group B;: Saad, Nasaf, Faisaly, Sharjah; Group C;: Jeddah United, Sepahan, Baghdad Air Force, Al Marek; Group D;: Riyadh Crescent, Mazandaran Textiles, Mumbai City, Namangan Spring Festival; Group E: Persepolis, Duhail, Dushanbe Independence, Riyadh Victory.
Generally speaking, the teams in the Western Conference are very unfamiliar to Chinese fans because they are all located in West Asia. However, it's different now because since Cairo came to West Asia, many international soccer stars have come, such as Neymar, Benzema, Henderson, Bunu, Brozovic, Mane, Neves and Laporte. It's worth noting that many of the players are still playing. It's no secret that today's star-studded Asian soccer is comparable to European soccer. In addition, Cairo, in the Asian Champions League, Neymar, Benzema and other teams entered the game.
Second, let's take a look at the groupings in the Eastern Zone. The groupings in the East Zone are as follows, Group F: Jeonbuk Hyundai, Bangkok United, Lion City Mariners, Jaejoong; Group G: Yokohama Mariners, Shandong Taishan (Chinese Super League (CSL)), Kaya FC, Incheon United; Group H: Buriram United, Kofu Fung Lam, Melbourne City, Zhejiang FC (CSL); Group I: Ulsan Hyundai, Kawasaki Frontale, Johor Shinzan, Batang United; Group J: Wuhan Sanzhen (CSL), Hanoi FC Pohang Pohang, Urawa Red Diamonds.
As you can see, firstly, the three teams in the Chinese Super League met with different fates. Except for Zhejiang's good luck, the others are average. The three Wuhan towns are in big trouble. I hope they all make it to the knockout stage. Secondly, Neymar's Riyadh Crescent got a signing, and Benzema's Jeddah United got a good signing. c Luo's Riyadh Victory fell into the group of death. If he wants to make it out, he needs to lead his team forward. But these teams are so star-studded that getting out of the group shouldn't be a big deal. Anyway, this AFC Champions League group stage is sure to be exciting, especially the Western Conference All-Star Battle.
Looking forward to the AFC Champions League, and hoping for a smooth ride for a few of the Premier League teams, Crowe's journey to the AFC Champions League goes smoothly!
