149 Chapter 149

Thirty-five years ago, when QPR and Tottenham met in the FA Cup final, QPR lost that final. So, for the first time, they will lift the oldest trophy in the history of English football.

The fans on Tottenham's side withdrew more than half of the game. Wembley looked a little empty, but Queens Park Rangers fans filled England's biggest football stadium with cheers and singing.

Inside the stadium, the players applauded the fans and thanked them for their support.

Lu Ling looked at the stand, she made good on her promise after the curtain call at Loftus Road Stadium. She and her boys did bring them the FA Cup. Today, Lu Yungui and Lu Yungui's girlfriend, Amber's family, and the families of many first-team players are sitting in the VIP seat. She waved at them, unsure if they could see the smile on her face.

She glanced back at the BBC presenter interviewing Pat.

The presenter said: 'Patrick, you won Tottenham again this season, but it was an FA Cup final at Wembley, it was an amazing game and you contributed that last goal. He finished and handed the microphone over.

Patrick wiped his sweat and gasped a little, "Yes." It was a good game. Tottenham were fantastic. ...... for us"

Before he finished speaking, two teammates suddenly appeared in the camera. He was pushed and hugged by Zixiang and John directly from behind, and almost hit the cameraman in front.

Oh, these two idiots.

He smiled and glanced at the two men, and a few meters away, another idiot, Ian, shouted at the two idiots, "Come here, come here." ”

After Zixiang and John had a falling out, Patrick continued: "It's been a fantastic season for us. That last goal, oh, I have to say, probably one of my favourite goals of the season. ”

The presenter then asked: "I also think that goal is very beautiful. You've talked about it in other interviews that you really want to get the FA Cup, and now you've got it. Congratulations!"

"Thank you. It's a special moment. As he spoke, he looked back, where Tina was laughing and chatting with captain Nedham and Mensah. She looked so happy. "I'm going to enjoy tonight, I'm pretty sure. ”

"Patrick, this is the first heavyweight title in the history of your club and the first title of your career. ”

"That's right. You see, how happy our fans are, they're great. And my teammates, my coach, all of us are excited for this championship. The FA Cup is very competitive and it is not easy to win this title. But I believe this is just the beginning. ”

"Thank you very much, Patrick, and hope you have a nice night. ”

Patrick smiled and said thank you and walked away from the TV camera. He turned and saw Tina. The look on her face was so bright, oh, he was pretty sure he was going to have a good night.

The BBC presenter began interviewing the head coach of the QPR.

"Kristen, congratulations, is this your best day of the season?" the host asked.

"Yes, of course. Lu Ling looked at the host with a smile and said, "We put a lot of effort into this, and the players played very well." I think we deserve this title. ”

"Patrick picked you up after the last goal, you looked surprised, can you tell us what was going on in your head?"

Pat was standing next to her a little bit, probably not in the camera, looking at her and laughing, why is this guy's smile so weird. Lu Ling frowned and glanced at him with a smile, and looked at the camera again, "Ell, he's very excited, after scoring that beautiful ball." I was shocked, and even though Leon had done the same before, I was always worried that they had run so far to pick me up, and what would happen if they fell me down. ”

The host laughed.

"To be honest, I was like, it would be great if the referee blew the whistle right now. But I knew there were still 10 minutes before the end of the game. So, I asked him to put me down and get back into the game. ”

The moderator would like to continue to ask...... But the official FA Cup staff are urging for the trophy to be awarded.

Lu Ling hurriedly said hello to the host and walked to the sideline.

Patrick chased after him, "Tina, I'm not going to throw you off. ”

Lu Ling squinted his eyes and looked at him with a smile, "You can't guarantee this." ”

"Absolutely. Patrick lowered his voice, "Any plans for the night?"

She raised her eyebrows, "Not yet, what's wrong?"

"Oh, Tina, you know. Maybe there's two hours left at most?" he said with a wink, and then lined up with his teammates.

One by one, the QPR players walked up to Wembley's main stand to receive the cheers of the fans. They shook hands with Tony Fernandez, one of the club's presidents, and David Gill, the FA's executive chairman, followed by Prince William (who is also the FA's honorary chairman). The FA Cup trophy has been placed there, waiting to be lifted by its owner.

Lu Ling was the last to walk into the stands.

The cheers were extremely loud.

The BTSPORT host said: "The 28-year-old will become the youngest manager in FA Cup history to lift the trophy and of course the first female manager to lift the Cup. ”

In the TV footage, Prince William smiled and said something to Lu Ling.

What he said was, "Congratulations, Christine, would you like to try your hand at Aston Villa?"

The royal is known to be a fan of Vera. Villa have just recently managed to get promoted back to the Premier League.

Lu Ling responded with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Royal Highness the Prince, but I will be tired to death with a promoted horse for two consecutive years." ”

The prince then picked up the silver-white FA Cup and handed it to QPR captain Nedham Onuoha.

Nedham held the trophy high above his head, thousands of silver-white sequins erupted from behind them, and the fan zone of the QPR erupted in a huge cheer!

Queens Park Rangers are champions!

Nedham handed the trophy to Lu Ling, and the head coach of QPR also held the trophy aloft.

The audience applauded thunderously, and "Christine's Blue and White Army" sang everywhere.

Then there was Patrick, then the impatient Zixiang, and then everyone came to pick up the trophy, and the scene was jubilant.

Not surprisingly, when the QPR players went to the centre of the pitch with the FA Cup trophy, the lid on it magically disappeared again.

"I told you, Pat, this thing isn't of good quality. "I'm going to write a letter to the FA suggesting that they improve the quality of the FA Cup." ”

The players around him were already laughing maniacally. Lu Ling stepped aside, and the players had already stood on the small ceremony stage in the field.

Flames and colored bars leap into the air at the same time, and Christine's boys jump up with champagne.

The cup in the center has a lid again, which was picked up by a staff member in the stands.

"It was a beautiful moment. Tim sighed as he watched the players spray each other with champagne.

"There will be better moments. Lu Ling crossed his arms and looked at a group of boys who had completely turned into little boys.

Then she walked down the tunnel where she still had a post-match press conference to attend. I guess the reporters in the media room have been waiting long enough.

She ran into Pochettino, who had just finished the press conference. There were rumours that the Argentine might leave White Hart Lane, and she didn't know whether to ask, but she asked, "Mauricio, will we meet again next season?"

Pochettino's smile was polite, but somewhat lost, "I think so." Congratulations, you are a talented coach. ”

"Thank you very much. You too. Lu Ling said sincerely. The Argentine is a good manager, but this season has been unlucky, and of course, the Premier League is very competitive every year, and if you are not careful, a good team may not get anything for a season.

"They're waiting for you. Pochettino said and patted her on the shoulder and walked past her, "Have a great summer." We'll call back and I mean, maybe we'll have a player conversation. ”

Lu Ling was slightly stunned and nodded, "I also wish you a good summer." ”

If she could, she didn't want to let go of any of her main players, and if anyone really wanted to leave, she didn't want to let go of the top eight teams in the Premier League.

Afterwards, she walked into Wembley's press conference with a smile on her face.

This media room is bigger than any Premier League club. But at the moment it is very full.

As soon as she took her seat, she asked questions.

The previous questions are all about this game. In fact, this game against Tottenham Hotspur is relatively the least suspenseful of the three games this season. Although it is not an easy victory, but in the whole game, Tottenham has little chance.

Chloe then asked: "There have been a lot of transfer rumours about QPR players lately, in fact, probably the most of any Premier League team, Christine, do you think this group of young players will stay in the team next season?"

Lu Ling looked at Chloe and felt strange in her heart, she couldn't say it.

'I haven't talked to the players yet. I certainly hope they all stay. At least now I can say that no one wants to leave. ”

"Is Patrick Amber still not for sale? ”

"He's been very happy here, we've had a great time working together, and I don't see any chance of him leaving. You may think that such a player should go to the biggest club in the world, but why? It's not a rule. She laughs. But she knows she's going to face that pressure this summer, and whether the club wants to sell Pate or not, whether he wants to leave or not, the vast majority of the media and fans will think England's number one talent shouldn't stay.

Overall, the atmosphere at this press conference was quite pleasant, until the last question appeared.

That was asked by a reporter from The Sun.

"Congratulations, Christine!" Everton boss Nick Flores ......"

When he pronounced the name, he added an accent. The site was very quiet. The flash and camera are aimed at Kristen Lu's face. They wanted to capture the expression on her face, and even the slightest upheaval could cause an uproar on social media tonight.

It was the first time in a long time since their breakup that a reporter mentioned the man's name at her press conference.

Lu Ling's facial expression did not change, and she stared at the reporter who asked the question, waiting for his question.

Nick Flores talked about his interest in several players for QPR in the interview, and he even joked that apart from Patrick, he might not be able to afford the price of several other players. You will remember your special friendship......"

Lu Ling sat forward and interrupted him, "We are talking about the transfer of players, which is a very important thing. It's not me, or Nick alone. ”

It was also the first time in a long time that she had mentioned his name in front of the media.

"I think it's not just Nick, maybe Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea want to bring in good players this summer. What can I say, we do have some good players in the squad. But we're going to try to keep them. To be honest, I'm not really willing to talk about that, I want to enjoy the night. What I do next season, I hope it starts tomorrow and not tonight. Thank you. ”

She stood up as she spoke, waving to the media in a friendly way.

The season has finally come to an end. Not perfect, but really good.

****

When Lu Ling returned to the locker room, the players were still making trouble. All had been sprayed with champagne, including Tim.

It seems that she can't escape this either......

Before she could be sprayed, Pat came over and hugged her and rubbed her all over......

She smiled and pushed him away: "I'm not going to shower, so I'm not allowed to ......"

A column of champagne struck, and she looked back.

Oh, it's Leon. She shrugged, grabbed another bottle and shook it.

It seems impossible not to shower.

After a long fuss, many of the players' families came to the locker room. Kate jumped directly on top of Ian and kissed him for a long time. The Ambers were also chatting with Pat and Tim. Anna actually remembered Tim, which made Lu Ling a little embarrassed. In fact, not only Anna remembers, but Jack and Lucy do.

But Lu Ling didn't see Lu Yungui and Cheng Si. So she made a phone call, but no one answered. After a while, Lu Yungui sent a message over, saying that he was afraid of traffic jams in the future, so he went back first.

For this reason, Lu Ling was somewhat incomprehensible, and more disappointed. She also wants Lu Yungui to touch the trophy of the FA Cup. But in the end, she still replied with a message:

[Maybe we can go on vacation together.] I have about two weeks off, where do you want to go?]

Lu Yungui didn't reply, Lu Ling thought that he might be discussing with Cheng Si.

****

Anna pulled Lu Ling aside and said mysteriously, "Tell me what happened?"

Lu Ling avoided her gaze, "I don't know what you mean. ”

"Oh come on, people may not be able to see it, but I know Pat very well. No one can make him so happy but you. Anna said as she glanced at Patrick, who was messing with his teammates, but glancing at each other from time to time, as if a little worried about what she shouldn't have said.

"I don't know how to say, come back to my house for a drink, and we'll talk. Lu Ling smiled. It is really inconvenient to talk about this here.

"No problem. I've been back in London for half a year, and because you're so busy, we haven't hung out together. Oh, Tina, it's true that you're the first female manager in the Premier League, but you're also a young girl of 28, how do I think you live like a 50-year-old man? ”

Lu Ling laughed. It seems to be a bit like ......

Patrick walked over, "What are you talking about?"

Anna blinked, "I won't tell you." Girls' secrets. ”

Patrick frowned, still smiling, but looking a little worried, he looked at Tina, "Anna, she'......"

"Oh, don't worry, Pat. I'm not going to take her away from you. Anna shrugged her shoulders and laughed at her brother.

Patrick glanced at Anna and asked Tina with another look.

She smiled, "I won't tell you either." ”

β€œfine.” Patrick was a little helpless.

Anna looked at the two of them and suddenly said, "Christine, you see, we are all single now, maybe we can go on a date together......"

"Anna!" Patrick shouted her name, a little excited.

Anna laughed maniacally, her eyes wandering between the two, "I knew it. ”

Patrick already knew that Anna was teasing him, and he was a little embarrassed and had a bad seizure. He then looked at Tina. She licked the champagne from her lips. This little action made his heart stir.

He leaned into her ear and asked, "When are we going back?" 166 Reading Network
