When the draw ceremony officially ended, the award ceremony for a series of UEFA awards began. In addition to the best defensive player, a series of awards in the Champions League this season were distributed one by one.

The Piacenza people, who have little to do with this, have no longer thought about this matter. Even Liu Feng has taken out his computer to quickly browse the information about the three teams that will face with him in the Champions League.

First, there were Professor Wenger's extremely young Gunners. This team with a series of top players such as Fabregas, Van Persie, Rosici, and Al Shavin. Although it is not as dominant as in the Premier League in previous years, it has never been in the past few years that it has not qualified in the group stage.

Moreover, the other three teams are indeed not as strong as the Gunners in any aspect, so it is very likely that Piacenza will compete with the other two teams for another qualifying list in Group H.

So Liu Feng's eyes were more focused on the CSKA and Wolfsburg in Moscow, but the series of names did not give him any clear feelings.

He doesn't pay much attention to the Russian Super League and the Bundesliga, so he can only wait until Conte analyzes their opponent's strength.

After the entire ceremony, the first round of the Champions League group was also newly released, and Piacenza's first Champions League match this season was scheduled to September 17.

That is, after the next round of the league, after an international match week, Piacenza will officially usher in a one-week double-game schedule. When Serie A teams officially enter the Italian Cup in December, they are likely to have a devil schedule of one-week three matches.

But what's better is that Piacenza's first weekly doubles were played at home, eliminating the pain of traveling, which is very helpful for their good start in the Champions League.

The next day, after the lottery ceremony came to an end, major media began to frequently report on the focus battles worthy of attention after grouping. The Italian media naturally focused their reports on the four domestic teams.

As the team representing Serie A to participate in the Champions League for the first time, Piacenza became the most talked about in Italy for a time. Everyone was worried that this young team, which had begun to show unstable posture in the game, could withstand the pressure of the Champions League.

Of course, some people also proposed that it would be unscientific to determine the problem with Piacenza's condition by relying only on a draw. So the fans and media who agree with this view all turned their attention to Piacenza's next round of game.

At the Piacenza training base, the players gathered early the morning after the draw. Everyone gathered together before you arrived, head coach, and they were talking about the team's group opponents. It was not until Conte arrived with a cold face that everyone's discussion gradually decreased.

"You probably already know our opponent."

Conte's expression was always tense, which made the team members dare not speak loudly: "Here I can tell you clearly that this grouping is very serious. When you play in your current state, we can only be at the bottom of the house!"

"Coach..." Scapelli spoke out immediately, but after seeing Conte's murderous look, he still closed his mouth tactfully.

"I know you have a big one, but this is useless. What I need is your attitude on the court. Don't forget that the game that has just ended, the reflection on it is much more important than the discussion of the Champions League that will be coming, which will be a lot more time."

"clear!"

Everyone finally understood Conte's thoughts and recalled the unpleasant game against Palermo. The players who played in that game became tense.

They still remember Conte said that if the game result makes him unsatisfied, he will reconsider the candidates for the main position.

"Just understand. Now, everyone is warming up for me. I will focus on the status and attitude of all of you in the past few days!"

"roar!"

With a shout, putting other things behind, the team members stood in two teams and quickly began to run around the track of the training base.

Then, after the warm-up, Conte obviously did not want them to rest, quickly took out a new training schedule and started practicing his team.

When the team members were immersed in their daily training, time passed without realizing it.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day before the fourth round of the Serie A. Conte, as usual, finished training early that afternoon and called the players to the conference room.

“I’m very satisfied with the training these days.”

Before the announcement of the roster and the starting list, Conte first affirmed the group of young people in front of him. Although there were problems with stability, the young of the players did make them full of energy in some aspects.

"Then, our formation for tomorrow's game is 433..."

After a series of arrangements, Conte sets the main tone for the team's home game against Atlanta tomorrow.

With a 433 formation, he undoubtedly wanted to recreate the glory of his second round against Atlanta, and shut up the media that had already begun to point fingers at his coaching team.

In terms of forward arrangements, he had not many choices this time, and he pressed Cassia on the bench again. Liu Feng, Girardino and Aubameyang became the trident of this game.

This is by no means a simple and targetless approach, because facing a team like Atlanta that is similar to Palermo, strikers with stronger personal abilities are often more threatening. Girardino's form has significantly improved in training in recent days, and there is no reason why Conte will not choose him.

However, under the midfield arrangement, Gansuo, who joined the team and got the starting position, unexpectedly did not appear in the starting position. Obviously, after exposing his weaknesses in the game against Palermo, Conte did not want his opponent to use this as a breaking point.

Regarding this, Conte had already talked to Gansuo alone during the training days and arranged a separate plan for him in daily strength training.

Therefore, after Naingran was arranged to serve as the team's front midfielder and Nocerino was behind him, Conte activated Raymondie, who had been stable in the bench after joining the team in the winter window last season. This solid player was pressed in the midfielder position and was responsible for building the last line of defense in front of the back line.

In terms of four defenders, Wolfl, who performed poorly in recent rounds, was taken down, with Desirvestre and Vitale on both sides respectively. As for the central defender combination, it was a combination of Miranda and Scalpelli, whose minor injury had been completely healed.

After the list was arranged, there was naturally another passionate oath, and Piacenza's team members became aggressive again under the leadership of Conte.

For a moment, everyone focused on the present, and defeating Atlanta, which was challenging at home in the hearts of the players, became the most important thing.
Chapter completed!
