Chapter Seventy-Four: Award Ceremony

The runners-up medal for Bayern Munich was awarded first, of course, and the Germans were not going to throw away the silver medal like the Portuguese. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Although they were in a very low mood, they respectfully received the medal from the then UEFA president, Swede Johansson, and carried it with them.

"The Germans are really not simple, bear the burden of humiliation," Fan Shang thought to himself, "It's really a terrible country, Bayern Munich is also a terrible team, you have to be careful when you encounter them in the future." ”

After the players and coaches of Bayern Munich stepped off the podium, the Bordeaux team began to prepare to receive the award.

Vincent was pushed first by the players, while acting captain Dudière stood last.

Before receiving the medal from Johansson, Vincent shook hands and hugged several big names, including the mayor of Bordeaux and French Prime Minister Alain. Alin Juppé, President of the Gironde Parliament Philippe Madrelle and other political stars, as well as football legends such as Platini and Jacques.

Especially when shaking hands with Platini, Fan Shang knew that this godfather would become the president of UEFA in the future, although now he is just a commentator, but Fan Shang still deliberately showed favor to him, he can't be a godson in the future, let's have a godgrandson, don't people say that they are separated by generations, right?

"Vincent, good job," Platini said first

"Thank you, Mr. Platini," Fan Shang pretended to be respectful

"Don't be so polite, just call me Michelle." Platini waved his hand, "Hurry up and claim the award, you guys did a great job today!" ”

"Thank you, Michelle, your explanation is also wonderful," Fan Shang responded

"Thank you," and Platini tapped Vincent on the shoulder, motioning for him to hurry up and claim the prize.

Fan Shang nodded knowingly, and walked a few steps to the front of UEFA President Swede Johansson, and before Johansson could stretch out his hand, Fan Shang couldn't wait to raise his hand.

When John saw Fan Shang's anxious appearance, he was stunned at first, then smiled, and also stretched out his hand to shake hands with Fan Shang.

Fan Shang is quite like a small cadre of the Celestial Empire who greeted the inspection of the leader, holding one hand with both hands, and with a respectful smile on his face. Now Fan Shang is almost bowing, but unfortunately, this thing is not popular in Europe.

Johansson himself is very curious about Vincent, although Vincent is French, but as a yellow man who is very rare in mainstream football, and he is such a young head coach, and at the same time leads the team with good results, which has made Johansson very interested. Today, Vincent reversed Bayern Munich and won the first European club championship in the club's history for Bordeaux, which made Johansson even more impressed with Vincent and wanted to take a good look at Vincent at the award ceremony. Looking at Vincent now, completely different from the cunning, obscene, and all-encompassing manager on the field, Johansson now sees a young man who is very excited because he has just won the lottery.

"Fan Shang, congratulations on winning the championship," Johansson said as he looked at the multifaceted young man in front of him

"Thank you, Mr. Johansson," Fan replied, and the most he said after winning the championship was thank you. In addition to the country, Fan Shang has already thanked the people around him.

"You're so young," Johansson couldn't help but sigh when he saw the young Fanshang. Now 23 years old, Vincent is arguably the youngest manager in Europe's top league and the youngest champion manager. Johansson himself is very fond of genius, he believes that genius promotes the development of football, and now the Fan Shang standing in front of him is the genius of the coach, and like the genius of the players, Johansson already likes Fan Shang a little.

"Young man, this is your medal" said Johansson and hung the championship medal around Vincent's neck, "In the future, European football will be the world of you young people, we are all old"

"You are not old at all, you may be more energetic than me" Although Fan Shang wanted to hug Pu's godfather's thigh, Johansson, as the current president of UEFA, Fan Shang would not let go of the opportunity to pat himself on the back.

"Haha" John Song smiled, he knew that Fan Shang was complimenting him, "European football needs a young coach like you, I hope you can continue to do well"

"Thank you, Mr. President," Fan Shang thanked again.

John Song smiled at Vincent, he couldn't talk to Vincent for too long, there was still a team waiting for the trophy in the back, and then began to continue to hand out medals.

Fan Shang continued to walk forward, shaking hands or hugging the people on the rostrum to celebrate.

It didn't take long for the Bordeaux players to hang up their medals and stand in a row in front of the podium, with Dudière standing in the middle as the acting captain.

Fan Shang stood on the outermost side, tilting his head to see the moment when Dudière was holding the cup, this was a hand pulling him forward, and before Fan Shang could reflect what was going on, he was pushed by several strong men to Dudielle's side.

Only then did Fan Shang know that he had been pushed by the players to take the trophy with Dudière. "It's the captain who holds the cup, what are you doing with me as the head coach?" Fan Shang questioned in his heart.

Then Fan Shang wanted to return to his original position, but the players did not agree, and they insisted that Fan Shang and Dudière win the cup together, including the acting captain Dudière, who also pulled Vincent and did not leave.

In the end, Fan Shang nodded and agreed, and he reluctantly shared the honor of the captain.

At this time, Johansson won the trophy of the League Cup, the Bertoni Trophy. Looking at this trophy that was a bit like a funnel, Fan Shanggang's heartbeat unconsciously accelerated not long after he calmed down. He now feels that he is in a dream, everything is so illusory, he was originally a working boy, a **silk, and now he can become a European champion, which is really very mysterious.

Without waiting for Vincent to think more, he heard Johansson's voice, "Boys, congratulations on winning the 1995-1996 UEFA Cup!" With that, Johansson handed over the trophy.

Fan Shang and Dudière reached out to pick it up at the same time, both of them supporting the bottom with one hand and stroking the trophy with the other. Then, after thanking Johansson, the two turned and held the trophy high above their heads.

The action was like hot oil poured into boiling water, and the already crowded Rekul Park stadium once again erupted in cheers, and the entire stadium was filled with cheers and screams from fans.

After the two held the trophy for a while, they gave it to the other players, and the Bordeaux players seemed to have discussed it, and no one kissed the trophy.

At this time, the stadium sounded Mayor Alain. Juppé's voice. "Hello everyone, I would like to congratulate Bordeaux FC first of all on winning the UEFA Cup. Another important thing is that in order to celebrate the Bordeaux club's victory, the whole city has a day off! ”

Rumble...... Another cheer

Fan Shang thought of his previous life when he first arrived in Bordeaux, in order to celebrate Bordeaux's 08-09 Ligue 1 championship, Bordeaux also took a day off from the city, although it was a little incomprehensible, but he was still happy to see a mayor who took football so seriously.

Since the whole city was closed the next day, the celebration that was originally planned to be held overnight was postponed to the next day.

Now Vincent will have to deal with the reporters at the post-match press conference.

So Fan Shang celebrated with the players on the pitch for a while, and after taking a few photos with the trophy, he went back to the locker room to tidy up his clothes and prepare to attend the press conference.

When Vincent arrived at the press conference, Beckenbauer was already sitting inside. Fan Shang looked at Beckenbauer's face, which was like water!

The football emperor has basically won all the trophies since he started playing, and when he was the head coach, he also won a lot of World Cups, Bundesliga championships and the like. But Beckenbauer, the low-hanging fruit champion he lost today, was still not convinced, he felt that Fan Shang, the head coach, was a person who played small tricks and couldn't get on the stage.

Fan Shangke didn't know what the football emperor thought in his heart, it was really not good for him to be late in the face of this kind of senior, although he won the championship, but Fan Shang still felt that it was good to maintain the tradition of the Celestial Empire and be humble.

So Fan Shang hurriedly went to apologize to the football emperor, and His Majesty the emperor just snorted lightly. Fan Shang was a little embarrassed, rubbed his hands, and sat down in his seat.
