The Gent and was the biggest surprise of the group stage,
leaving out of the eighth to Lyon and Valencia, when started as the Cinderella
of the group and no one was betting on them. The Vanhaezebrouck Hein, on the
sly, and its multitude of tactics varieties (4-4-2, 4-3-3 and sometimes even
3-5-2) managed to sneak into the knockout rounds in their first Champions,
making history after doing in the domestic championship achieving their first
league title.
And it appears that the Gent fight for the second, and
leading the Belgian league with Club Brugge, thanks to goals from Depoitre and
Kums, numbering between 20 goals between league and Champions.
Meanwhile Wolfsburg also opens in the knockout stages of
the Champions League Football, leaving in the lurch two historical of these rounds as
Manchester United and CSKA. The Dieter Hecking showed remarkable performance in
the group stage with a great deal of goals scored in the group stage, having
scored 9 goals, being the Brazilian defender Naldo's top scorer with two goals.
All contribute in this Wolfsburg with his classic 4-2-3-1
and the top four (Vieirinha, Caligiuri, Draxler and Kruse) in a great form,
start with some favoritism in this tie. Therefore, Wolfsburg hopes to pass the
quarter-finals and maybe hopefully in the next crossroads, trying to repeat the
story of the Borussia Dormtund 2013, that against all odds he got into the
final of the Champions.
