"Hahaha, thank you everyone, I will be able to drink a free glass of beer in this season's game!" After the game, Old Smith stood up and smiled triumphantly. .Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ.

There were thirty or forty people who bet with him just now. Old Smith basically only came to the bar when there was a game, and occasionally went to watch the game.

So after a season, he will only come to the bar thirty or forty times. If he can meet the person who bet today every time, then he can drink free beer every game.

Although a glass of beer is not worth much, it means that he can show off today's feat to others in every future game.

Those fans who lost the bet with him didn't show much disappointment on their faces. They just invited Old Smith to drink a glass of beer and let him laugh. This one is more worth celebrating.

"For Everton!" Old Smith raised his glass after finishing his twitch.

"For Everton!"

Dozens of fans in the bar raised their glasses together.

...

Goodison Park Stadium, after Xia Ze signed autographs for the fans behind him, he stood up from the bench and walked back to the dressing room.

He was replaced by Martinez in the second half.

Although the young man has good physical strength, the first league game will be played in two days. Martinez still needs to protect the core players to prevent them from being injured at the last moment.

Among the five goals, Deulofeu made two passes and two shots, becoming the team's biggest contributor. And Lukaku and Miralas also had a goal each.

Although Xia Ze didn't score a goal, his series organization in the midfield still allowed the team's offense to exert its maximum energy.

Listening to the singing of the fans around him, Xia Ze was walking back to the locker room. The pressure from the past week instantly disintegrated at this moment.

For the Everton players, this game was under tremendous pressure, but it also turned into their motivation, allowing them to beat their opponents in this second round of the game.

...

Immediately after the game, the media in England turned the limelight again. They had been criticizing the entire Everton team.

Also because of this hearty victory, he bragged to the Everton players.

Deulofeu, who had been hacked for a whole week, became a hero in this game, and he also made headlines in the sports section of major media newspapers, even though he is a Spaniard, even though he came to England just more than a month.

And Liverpool City's media that supports Everton can finally exhale and raise their eyebrows, and can compete with another group of media that support Liverpool.

Liverpool suffered a small loss away from their opponents, but still managed to advance. And West Ham United also advanced to the next round of qualifying.

As long as there is another qualifying round, they will be able to enter the main match of the Europa League and play at least six group matches.

Tottenham, which ranked fifth in the league last season, has already obtained a place in the group stage ahead of schedule.

On the morning of the next day, the 'draw' ceremony for the final qualifying round of the Europa League will be held soon.

The Everton players had just experienced a fierce battle, so they were doing recovery training in the gym the next morning, while watching the big screen on the wall, watching the Europa League play-off draw ceremony.

"Tom, which opponent do you think we'll 'draw'?" Gibson asked Cleverly beside him as he pedaled his bicycle.

"A team from Central or Western Europe, maybe not from the five major leagues." Cleverly said with a smile.

Indeed, if it is the five major leagues, no matter who the opponent is, it will be very difficult. After all, the teams that can qualify for the European competition are the top seven or even higher teams in the five major leagues. None of such teams is easy to mess with.

Although teams from Central European or Western European countries participating in the Europa League may even be the league champions of their own countries, compared to the five major leagues where the 'elites' gather, the teams from Central and Western European countries are not so strong.

Even if a team like Midtjylland has the devil's home court, even if Everton loses in the away game, they can still beat the opponent by a big score when they return to the home court.

But Everton may not be able to 'draw' a good team. After all, they are not a seeded team this time, and there are many strong seeded teams.

If they encounter strong teams such as Dortmund and Athletic Bilbao among the seeded teams, they may not be able to qualify.

"Perhaps 'drawing' to Athletic Bilbao? I really want to go to the new San Mames Stadium to experience their atmosphere." Deulofeu' interjected.

"Come on, if we meet Biba, I'm afraid the domestic media will hype it again." Gibson and Cleverly complained about Deulofeu, and even the teammates next to him couldn't help laughing.

After all, Athletic Bilbao's home court is something top teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid can't afford to offend. Although Everton is not weak, it is far from being able to conquer Bilbao's home court with absolute certainty.

It can even be said that no team on this planet dares to say that they can get out of the new San Mames stadium unscathed.

If they meet Biba, it will be another fierce battle.

"In a few minutes, we will know who we will play against. It's our turn to 'draw'." Captain Baines interrupted the quarrel of several people and looked up at the big screen.

On the big screen, the Europa League drawers in suits and leather shoes "drawn" Everton out.

The players in the gym immediately stopped talking and looked at the big screen with held breath.

"Everton." The lottery staff calmly showed Everton's name to the camera, then he took a small ball from the assistant, opened it and took out a note.

"Ajax."

While the lottery staff showed the note, they said the name of a world-renowned team from their mouths.

Ajax, the second-ranked team in the Eredivisie last season, lost in the Champions League qualifying round, so they will play the Europa League play-offs to compete for a place in the Europa League.

Although the Eredivisie team has been in decline in recent years, the lean camel is bigger than the horse. As a four-time Champions League winner, Ajax is considered to be one of the best youth training teams in Europe. The background cannot be ignored.

It is no easier for Everton to meet each other in the play-offs than to meet the teams in the five major leagues.

For Everton, the only advantage of this pick may be that they don't need to travel to Eastern Europe.

But judging from the dignified expressions of the various players in the gym, the result of such a 'draw' was not what they wanted.

Although they are not afraid of challenges, everyone hopes to meet a relatively weak team, so that every game does not have to be a life-and-death struggle.

Apparently God didn't do what they wanted.
