No. 649 Created with your own hands, finished with your own hands
The song "Forward, Coventry" resounded at the Ricoh Stadium.
From a fourth-tier team to a Premier League champion, Coventry has taken six years! It can be said that Liu Yun changed Coventry - Coventry also changed Liu Yun.
A few years ago, Liu Yun transferred to Pearl River Sea Soul, and the YOYO physical test blocked him from the door of the Chinese League, and it was Coventry that accepted him. Who would have thought that it was the decision that George Sr. was not happy to make the Blues an FA Cup trophy and a Premier League trophy?!
On the field, Liu Yun asked the players to stop celebrating. He gathered the players, shoulder to shoulder, and bowed to the fans.
"Hooray! Old lieutenant! Banzai! Coventry! The fans responded with a loud shout!
Liu Xiaoyan in the stands left tears of excitement. It's been six years, and the bits and pieces of her father's return to the court have come to her heart.
Coventry City - Manchester United - Coventry. His father has already created his own history at this moment!
Little Cola rode on the neck of her sister Liu Xiaoyan, waving her little hands, shouting her father's nickname like a real Coventry diehard: Old Lieutenant!
Next up is the Premier League Championship Medal Ceremony.
Liu Yun, as the captain of the team, received the championship trophy from FA President Clarke!
Liu Yun held the trophy high and shouted a person's name: George - Stasi!
This is the name of the team's late Meritorious Coach George Sr.
In this way, Liu Yun commemorates Old George - to commemorate the old people in heaven who love Coventry!
Next, he kissed the Premier League trophy β the third time in six years that he has kissed the trophy. Familiar taste, familiar champion.
The big-mouthed Dunphy said excitedly in the comment seat: "It's so interesting! As long as the old lieutenant is in the Premier League, he can lift the championship trophy! He personally established the Manchester United dynasty and ended the Manchester United dynasty with his own hands! The era of Manchester United's four consecutive titles is over, and now it's the era for Coventry! β
Liu Yun handed the trophy to Bai Rifeng next to him.
Bai Rifeng, Billy, Zhao Kaixuan, Li Fanghua... The young people of the team took turns kissing the championship trophy - the trophy was so sweet at the moment, although it was stained with the saliva of countless people.
"Boom~Bang~"
Bunches of fireworks take off into the sky, lighting up the night sky over Coventry!
Fireworks in the city of Coventry require approval from the City Hall β which is almost unanimous: whether Coventry is the champion or runner-up after 38 rounds, there will be a spectacular fireworks display on the night of the final round.
Fireworks bloom in the night, like flowers, like stars...
I don't know which fan started it - the fans climbed over the fence and poured into the stadium.
The Coventry police have no intention of stopping the passionate fans β the police are avid Coventry fans themselves. If it weren't for the uniform, they would have rushed into the stadium and hugged the players!
Liu Yun was lifted up by the fans and paraded around the field.
Old Lieutenant Liu Yun is the god of Ricoh Stadium at this moment!
γγγγγγ
Post-match press conference.
Reporters scrambled to raise their hands to ask questions. The first to raise their hand was a reporter from The Times.
No one expected that the questions he asked had nothing to do with winning the championship.
"Hello, old lieutenant, I'm a reporter for The Times. For the past few years, at the end of each season, the media has asked you the same question. Well, I need to repeat the same question of my peers now: you'll be 51 years old when this season is over. Will you retire? β
Liu Yun replied categorically: "My answer is the same as in the past few years - no!" β
A reporter from The Times asked: "I'd better be more direct. Old lieutenant, when do you plan to retire? β
Liu Yun's answer was heroic: "Wait until Coventry lifts the Champions League trophy!" β
As soon as Liu Yun said this, the entire Ricoh Stadium press hall was speechless!
Champions League winners? The old lieutenant's next goal turned out to be to help Coventry win the Champions League?
That's too big, isn't it?
Leicester City and Kaiserslautern have each created Coventry-like miracles. However, Leicester City and Kaiserslautern both failed in the Champions League the following year.
In the Champions League, Coventry will face super giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, and Juventus.
The young people of Coventry β okay?
"Hello, old lieutenant, I'm a reporter for The Sun. We all know that winning the Champions League is not an easy task. What if Coventry can't win the Champions League in a decade? β
Liu Yun smiled slightly, and his answer was even more amazing: "Then I won't retire for ten years!" β
Crazy, the reporters in the press room of the entire Ricoh Stadium are crazy.
Ten years without retiring? Are you going to kick until you're 61?
Your grandson or grandson will be 10 years old by then!
Liu Yun saw that there was silence in the press room, and continued: "I am confident that Coventry will be able to win the Big Ear Cup within three years. Because β I had a dream last night that I was standing on the podium of the Champions League winner in a sky blue jersey! β
Liu Yun paused and continued: "If Coventry can become the double champion of the United Kingdom, why can't it dominate in the Champions League? β
A double winner? Journalists were once again shocked. The FA Cup final hasn't started yet, and the old lieutenant already sees the FA Cup title as something in his pocket?
It would be arrogant for another player to say that.
In exchange for the legendary old lieutenant to say such things, this is self-confidence!
"Old lieutenant, you led the team to win the Premier League title and the Premier League Golden Boot when you were almost 51 years old. How do you feel at this moment? β
Liu Yun replied humorously: "Do you feel it? Thanks to my son-in-law, Qu Bai. Because my daughter told him that if he overtook me in the shooter rankings, she would punish him for kneeling noodles. Therefore, this season, Qu Bai has been ranked second in the scorer list. He loves my daughter so much, how dare he come first? Kneeling instant noodles! β
Liu Yun's answer caused the reporters to burst into laughter.
"Hello Coach Edda. I'm a reporter for Sports Weekly. It is said that a few years ago, when you went to Pearl River Sea Soul to select players, you were not optimistic about the old lieutenant? Almost turned the old lieutenant away? β
Edda smiled bitterly, "If I hadn't bought the old lieutenant in the first placeβit would have been a big mistake!" This mistake will not only cost Coventry as a club immeasurable loss β it will also cost world football a legend! β
"Hello, old lieutenant. I am a reporter for Huaguo's "Understanding the Ball". Not surprisingly, White House will be the Premier League newcomer of the season of the year. A year ago, what made you push him into the team despite the crowd? β
Liu Yun replied: "You are a Chinese, you should have heard of a word called: spiritual atomic bomb." Hypertrophy does not equal strength, weight does not equal strength. Beneath the thin body of the white wind hides a tough, tenacious, and manly soul! The strength of the spirit can make up for the shortcomings in his figure. Don't you know his new nickname at Ricoh Stadium - Mad Dog! He is 1.69 meters tall, and now he is even afraid of three points when Pogba sees him! β
The press conference lasted a full hour before it ended.
Liu Yun and Eda return to the locker room.
Liu Xiaoyan and Isabella didn't know when they came to the locker room with Little Coke.
Little Coke has become the darling of many players. She rode on Manla's neck and waved her little hands.
"Dad! We won! Liu Xiaoyan threw herself into her father's arms, tears streaming down her face.
"It's all about to be mothers, what are you crying about." Liu Yun wiped away Liu Xiaoyan's tears.
Liu Yun stood on the table in the center of the locker room: "Listen to me." This is our first top race win β not the last! I've already boasted to the media that we're going to win the double this season! If Coventry doesn't win the Champions League, I won't retire! β
"Long live, old lieutenant!"
"Long live, Coventry!"
The young people responded to the old lieutenant's rhetoric with shouts!
Coventry tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
In the bar outside Ricoh Stadium, the wealthy tycoons of China have fun with the ordinary citizens of the small British town. The atmosphere of winning the championship infected every big guy.
Ma Huyun said to Liu Youxi: "This is the charm of football. The old lieutenant had an incisive saying: What friendship comes first, competition comes second? Winning is exciting, losing is frustrating. Winning or losing is the biggest charm of football and competitive sports. It's the same as when we do business, either you win or you lose. There is no third option! β
I don't know who started it, but the people of Coventry on the street gathered in twos and threes. They sang the Coventry anthem, waved their scarves, and had a championship parade on this summer night!
At the forefront was Coventry's mayor, Pine.
Pine is a career politician, how could he waste such an opportunity to have fun with the people and increase his approval ratings!
As the mayor, he is wearing a sky blue jersey at the moment, an octagonal hat on his head, holding a team scarf in his hand, and shouting with the citizens: "Long live the old lieutenant, long live Coventry!" β
In the crowd, an elderly man in his nineties said to his great-grandson, who was in his twenties: "I remember the last time there was a march of this magnitude in Coventry β when the Nazis surrendered." β
The wealthy tycoons of China also took their wives and lovers to the streets and joined the procession.
Meanwhile, in the Coventry dressing room, crazy celebrations are underway!
A rain of champagne washes over each player's body.
Zhao Kaixuan and Li Fanghua introduced champagne into the championship trophy, and everyone competed to drink the wine that represented victory.
Liu Yun, the team boss who has a serious face on weekdays, also released the "prohibition of alcohol". Victory should be accompanied by wine and singing.
Liu Yun received a call from Qu Bai.
Qu Bai on the other end of the phone seemed a little frustrated: "Alas, Dad, we still haven't been able to complete the five consecutive championships." The media is right, you created the Manchester United dynasty with your own hands, and you ended the Manchester United dynasty with your own hands. β
Liu Yun comforted Qu Bai and said, "Xiaoqu, do you remember what I said to you three years ago?" How can a person not experience several failures in his life? β
Qu Bai said: "Dad, when does your championship celebration end?" I'm driving to Coventry. β
Liu Yun said: "Okay, you go home first." Isabella and Yan Yan have already gone home with little Coke. I... I don't know what time I'll have to go back. β
Outside the Ricoh Stadium, the championship parade lasted until 12 a.m.
"Knock ~ Knock ~ Knock ~ Knock ~ Knock ~ Knock ~ Knock ~" The bell of Coventry Cathedral struck twelve times on time.
Even during the bombing of Coventry, the bells of the cathedral never stopped.
After twelve, the bells of Coventry Cathedral rang three more times!
Prior to that, Coventry had only been ringing the bell twice.
The first was the day the Nazis surrendered, and the second was the coronation of Empress Elizabeth.
On both sides of the road, there were still police on duty.
Now, police officers have joined the celebratory crowd. The police caps were snatched up by the citizens, who dressed them in sky-blue octagonal hats.
On the baton, the Coventry flag was covered.
"Bang bang bang~" In the night, the fireworks took off again.
The Bouchard Pyrotechnics Company, which hosted the fireworks show, paid out of its own pocket and after the first fireworks show, a second performance was performed! Because the owner of Bouchard Pyrotechnics is also a native of Coventry β and the most die-hard Coventry fan!
In the crowd of the parade, there was also a special group of people!
It was hundreds of big men in sky-blue jerseys - none other than Godfather Anthony's men.
Antony, the underground emperor of the West Midlands, also changed into a sky-blue jersey at the moment, holding a model of the Premier League trophy high to participate in the parade.
Coventry Police Chief Hook is Anthony's old rival. At this moment, he did not let his men keep an eye on Anthony. Because there is a sentence in Anthony's file that the suspect is a die-hard fan of the Coventry City.
Hook knew that on victory night, Anthony would never do anything to spoil the atmosphere.
ββββββ
Coventry's victory celebrations continued all night.
The sun was up, and the streets were lined with hangovers β all wearing sky-blue jerseys.
Newspapers were delivered to the Coventry Post Office at 6am on time.
The Times: Great victory! Coventry City pulled off another miracle, winning the title in their first season back in the Premier League. The legendary old lieutenant helped the team achieve the Kaiserslautern miracle that belongs to England.
The Sun: Old lieutenant, another ten years of fighting? He said he would never retire as long as Coventry City didn't win the Champions League.
Daily Mail: The old lieutenant - personally created the Manchester United dynasty, and ended the Manchester United dynasty with his own hands. He ushered in a new era in the Premier League β the era of Coventry.
The Guardian: The old lieutenant is about to celebrate his 51st birthday β the FA Cup β and the young people of Coventry are giving him the best birthday present.
World Football: 61 goals, new records, new legends! The old lieutenant has surpassed Matthews to become a legend among the super-aged players. People all over the world are curious - what exactly is the material of the strong old lieutenant made of? Is it steel? Or titanium? He is the only grandfather of football today!
