Chapter 1065: Top of Europe

The referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game.

The entire Stadium of Light was completely turned into a sea of water, and tens of thousands of Chinatown fans cheered wildly.

The players and staff of Chinatown, who had been waiting on the sidelines, rushed into the stadium one after another, celebrating with the players on the field, all dancing with their hands and being inexplicably excited.

It was 2-1, and Atletico Madrid couldn't turn the tide in the end.

Chinatown relied on goals from Eden Hazard and Alvaro Morata to beat the Sheets 2-1.

After the whistle sounded, Zidane raised his arms high, turned to Makelele and other assistants beside him, and hugged them one by one, and the coaching staff was already in a judicious mess.

The Stadium of Light has been transformed into a celebratory stage in Chinatown.

This crucial victory completely blew away the gloom of the past season.

Yes, Chinatown did fall behind against Atletico Madrid in the past season, losing the Copa del Rey and the league in a row, but after winning this title tonight, all of that doesn't matter.

The Champions League is the most important and important championship trophy in football today, comparable to the World Cup of club competitions.

It can even be said that whether or not to win the Champions League is known as the threshold and bottleneck of the giant team.

Just like Chelsea, in recent years, although the Blues have been regarded as a giant team, but failed to win a Champions League, it is regarded as Chelsea's biggest weakness, and it is also the biggest doubt of all fans about Chelsea, and it is an honor that Abramovich wants to fight for at all costs.

Now, Chinatown has won this Champions League, which can almost be said to have laid the foundation of the club's giant team.

Coupled with the new stadium that will be officially opened this season, Chinatown has begun to have the atmosphere of a big club.

The only suspense is, how long can this report card of Chinatown last?

Will the team fall apart in this summer's poaching?

Inside the stadium, the players and coaching staff were in a mess.

In the stands, Gao Han also stood up and responded to the fans, clapping and cheering vigorously.

To be able to beat Atletico Madrid 2-1, the team's performance is indeed impeccable, especially Zidane's on-the-spot command in the second half, which basically reflects his strength and potential.

His only flaw is his lack of experience, but I believe that he will become more and more proficient as he has more experience in coaching.

"Congratulations, Mr. Kohan. Platini smiled and held out his hand.

Chinatown's victory is a big upset, and for the Champions League, the benefits are obvious.

Throughout the past few years, Alpine and Barcelona have been a standout, but this season, with the strong rise of Chinatown, Atletico Madrid's full recovery has led to fierce competition in the Champions League.

Today's Champions League competition is unprecedented.

Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City in the English Premier League, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga, Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1, Inter Milan and Juventus in Serie A, and Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chinatown and Atletico Madrid in La Liga.

The five major leagues are competing against each other, and this situation has undoubtedly greatly enhanced the influence of the Champions League.

It is also worth noting that in recent years, there have been successive emergence of former stars such as Simeone, Pep Guardiola, Pochettino and Zidane as head coaches, which has undoubtedly become a unique and beautiful scenery in the Champions League, attracting a large number of fans.

And these managers are inseparable from Gao Han, which makes Platini have to re-recognize Gao Han's influence.

"Thank you, Michelle!" Gao Han shook Platini's hand vigorously.

"I didn't expect this group of boys to be so competitive. ”

When he said this, Gao Han's tone was not without pride.

He is not the head coach of the team now, he is proud and proud of this group of young players in Chinatown, and this is a matter of course, and any team, any club owner, will be like him.

This season's Chinatown is very similar to the Ajax when Louis van Gaal was in charge in the 90s, just as young, just as talented, just as champions, but in the more competitive La Liga.

There are talents from all generations, and they have led the way for hundreds of years.

Gao Han couldn't help but think of this poem in his mind, he seemed to have seen the next development direction and path of Chinatown, the team will continue to continue the current momentum of development, and strive to establish the status of La Liga powerhouse in one fell swoop, and impact the ranks of European giants.

If it does succeed, China City will become the youngest big club in the history of European football.

With more than ten years of accumulation, the best youth training system in Europe, coupled with the most modern top stadium in Europe that will be opened this season, as one of the most commercially run teams in European football, Chinatown has long been regarded as a quasi-giant team.

Now, this Champions League is undoubtedly just the first step for Chinatown!

"Regarding the matter you proposed earlier to further support the development of Chinese football and arrange for Chinese youth players to train and play in Europe, you can draw up a plan for me as soon as possible, and I will discuss it at the UEFA Executive Committee in the near future, I believe it is not a big problem. ”

Platini was also very interested in Alpin's plans.

The whole world knows how big the Chinese market is.

UEFA has also been beneficial to the development of the Chinese market before, but due to various objective environmental restrictions, it has not been able to do so.

If it is only in terms of youth training, Gao Han is confident that it can be done, but it also includes coach training, referee training and assignment, as well as the training of football-related industry personnel, etc., which require the support of UEFA and other national football associations.

Many fans' impression of Chinese football has always stayed at the player level, at most it involves youth training, but in fact, professional football is an industry, with a very detailed division of labor and cooperation, up to the operation of a club, business operations and transfers, to the player's brokerage agency and personal brand management, down to the most ordinary and insignificant football field manager......

The entire professional football industry has long been a complex industry with an extremely clear division of labor.

For Chinese football to rise, it is inevitable to raise the level of the entire industry.

This is why many people say that China does not have Messi, but lacks the soil to cultivate Messi.

To put it bluntly, China's professional football industry is still too backward.

As the leader of the world's most advanced and core professional football industry, UEFA has an excellent talent pool and management mechanism in all aspects, which is something that China's football industry and industry managers need to learn from.

Communication, learning, exploration, and then according to China's national conditions, to find a professional football development path that belongs to China, this is the next way for Chinese football to go.

The two neighbors, South Korea and Japan, have walked this path for 20 or 30 years to achieve today's achievements, and Gao Han believes that as long as China persists in pursuing this path, it will certainly be even better than South Korea and Japan.

While the celebration was in full swing in Chinatown, the craftsmen were also in full swing to engrave the name of the Chinatown on the St. Bride Cup.

When everything is ready, the award ceremony officially begins.

When all the players in Chinatown divided into two columns and stood in front of the podium tunnel, they lined up to greet everyone up and down Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid's captain Fernando Torres led the team through the queue of Chinatown, and as they passed by one by one, they all hugged each other's players from Chinatown, and many people smiled and congratulated Chinatown on winning the championship.

The two teams can be called brothers, and the relationship between them is also very close, and there are frequent exchanges, although they play to the death on the field, but off the court, whether they win or lose, it will not affect their relationship with each other.

Even if he has a hot temper like Simeone, he can't stop congratulating Zidane and the players in Chinatown.

Gao Han did not step off the podium, but stood at the corner of the aisle, and when he saw Torres walking up with his teammates, he immediately greeted them with a smile and open arms.

Although today's Atletico Madrid team has long been a thing, and many players are no longer the favorite generals during Gao Han's coaching, the backbone of the team such as Torres, Villa, Navas, Ramos, Gabi and others are all left over from the Gao Han period.

Some people say that the legend of the cold is still circulating in the Sheet Corps.

For such a legendary head coach, the players are also extremely respectful, and every time they pass by Gao Han's side, they will take the initiative to hug him warmly, and the head coach Simeone even spread his hands to Gao Han from afar, with an innocent and helpless expression.

Obviously, he was aiming for a treble before the game, but he didn't expect to be sniped by Chinatown.

After sending off Atletico Madrid, the players from Chinatown also began to line up to the podium.

Gao Han still politely congratulated every player, and as the owner of Chinatown, thanked them for their contributions to the team and congratulated them on winning the Champions League.

And every player also expressed their gratitude to Gao Han.

Head coach Zidane stopped in front of Gao Han for a long time, talking about the troubles he encountered in the game, and now he feels scared when he thinks about it, while Gao Han said that he has performed extremely well, and the most important thing is to sum up the lessons learned.

For a manager like Zidane, it is indeed quite difficult to win such a high honor in his first season in charge, and the three achievements of the Copa del Rey runner-up, La Liga runner-up and Champions League champion are all very weighty, which not only reflects Zidane's coaching level, but also reflects his potential.

Coaching still places a lot of emphasis on experience.

Now Zidane has made a good start, and I believe that with the accumulation of his experience, he will become more and more effective in the future.

The only thing Gao Han had to worry about was whether he would be poached, but this topic obviously shouldn't be asked on such an occasion.

After sending Zinedine Zidane to the podium, the audience burst into thunderous applause when they saw Platini personally put on the championship medal for him, especially when Platini handed the trophy to De Gea and Eden Hazard.

Gao Han stood aside, I don't know why, but when he saw this scene, he suddenly had a sour nose.

More than ten years ago, he never dared to imagine that Chinatown would be what it is today, and even he was more worried about how to keep the team running, but more than ten years later, the development of Chinatown has far exceeded his expectations.

Tonight, he reached the top of Europe at the Stadium of Light, and in the future, he will surely be able to create more and higher glories.

At this moment, watching the players excitedly and inexplicably holding up the St. Bride Cup, Gao Han suddenly felt the urge to cry.

Looking at the players and the trophies, Gao Han seemed to see the children he had raised for many years and finally grown up.
