The Champions League winner's award ceremony took place from the podium.

After the entire Manchester City team celebrated on the pitch, they returned to the dressing room for the award ceremony.

Manchester City and Chelsea players split the two teams.

First of all, Chelsea went up to receive the award, they were runners-up in the Champions League, and they had to claim the silver medal on behalf of the runners-up.

One player after another went up to receive the award, with Grant following the team and receiving his medals, but he didn't have any smile on his face because Chelsea had lost.

Losing a Champions League trophy is nothing to an Israeli, and it's a bit of a dream to be able to play to this level in charge of Chelsea this season.

If this may seem strange to others, it's understandable to consider that the Israelis came out of Israel to the Premier League two years ago, and their first job was at Portsmouth Athletic, which is the equivalent of an assistant coach.

Grant's ability to be Chelsea manager is a bit of a mystery.

It is clear to anyone that Grant has no qualifications, even the ability to take on the role, but it is only by coincidence that he has the opportunity to coach Chelsea.

This is his chance.

So being able to lead the team to the Champions League final is already quite a good result.

It's a pity that the Champions League runners-up is unacceptable to club president Roman Abramovich, who wants to make Chelsea the best team in the world, so it must be the title to be fought for.

So after the final, it can be imagined.

Grant is well aware that the past final will be his last game in charge of Chelsea, and he has no clear idea of what the future holds.

In this case, he couldn't be happy.

But Grant also wanted to make a good impression on everyone, and he needed to do so to establish his image, so after receiving his silver medal, Grant shook hands with UEFA President Michel Platini, and then hung the silver medal around his neck and walked off the stage with the team.

As he stepped down, Grant couldn't help but look at Manchester City's team, looking at the past one by one, and finally his eyes stayed on Wan Sheng.

This Chinese has just turned 31 years old.

31 years old!

At the age of 31, he led the team to win the UEFA Champions League, and if I remember correctly, he is the youngest manager in the history of the Champions League?

This is also 'again' to break the record of a thought of it!

So young, so successful!

Manchester City's glory this season has reached its peak, they have won all the trophies that English clubs can win, they can say that they have 'swept' the whole of Europe, and after winning the title, this young Chinese will probably leave, but with such a result, he doesn't have to worry about the future at all, right? In other words, he will definitely go to a bigger stage!

Grant couldn't help but be envious.

"Will you have the opportunity to fight him in the future?" Before leaving, Grant thought.

――――

Next up was the winner's medal ceremony.

The UEFA Champions League winner award is the pinnacle of the entire Champions League.

The Manchester City players lined up in turn, and amid the cheers on the field, they walked to the rostrum to receive their individual medals.

Like Grant, Wan Sheng was the last to go up, and UEFA president Michel Platini was looking at him with a smile on his face.

Platini, who ran last year to replace former president Johansson as UEFA president, is the first time he has seen a victory.

However, Platini greatly appreciated Wansheng.

This may have something to do with the football that Platini likes, he doesn't like the kind of defensive utilitarian football, he likes the offensive style of football, which is wonderful and good-looking, and can attract more fans.

Platini smiled at Wan Sheng, then hung the gold medal around his neck and said, "I knew you were young, but I was surprised to see you in person." At 31 years old, most people are still a player at this age, and some of your players are older than you, but you've been in charge of the top flight for four years, right? ”

"Yes, four years, Mr. Platini."

Wan Sheng said politely.

"Four years, so to speak, when you first started in the top league, you were only 27 years old, 27 to 31 years old, in four years, you won a lot of titles, and when I first found out about your results, it was a shock, I don't believe it could be done by a young man in his 30s, but you did it. Now that you're Champions League champions again, I still don't believe it......"

"But anyway, congratulations!"

"Not only did you lead the team to the championship, but your football was also beautiful!"

Wan Sheng smiled and thanked the compliment, and then took the initiative to shake Platini's hand.

"I'm looking forward to what you're going to achieve in the future, and you're doing it, and I'm sure you'll be able to do it. World football belongs to young people like you! ”

"Thank you!"

After Wan Sheng received the medal, it was the turn of the Champions League trophy, and Platini presented the trophy to the team's captain Morris.

The moment Morris lifted the trophy, the cheers at the Luzhniki Stadium resounded in the sky, and tens of thousands of Manchester City fans chanted along with everyone in Manchester City, "Manchester City! Manchester city! Manchester City are the champions of Europe! ”

The atmosphere reached a climax.

After that, Morris did not covet the trophy, but passed the trophy to his teammates, and everyone competed to touch or kiss the trophy, and finally the trophy was handed to Wan Sheng.

Wan Sheng held the trophy in both hands, his lips pressed hard against it, and he shouted vigorously, "The smell of the Champions League trophy is so good!" ”

The others laughed.

Then Wan Sheng also raised the trophy high, and the players also raised their arms and shouted, and the atmosphere reached a peak again.

――――

"This is the youngest champion coach in history!"

In the moment of Manchester City's victory, British BBC radio commentator Ryan John began to focus on Wan Sheng, "Wan Sheng, he is from China. Now 31 years old, he has already led Manchester City to victory in the Champions League, but no one would have linked it to luck as City have won the league title, the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Community Shield, all the trophies that English clubs can win. Tonight, they won the Champions League, which also interpreted the glory of Manchester City this season and the excellent coaching ability of Wan Sheng himself! ”

"From Wansheng to Derby County, until now, he has won four league trophies, a League Cup, a Champions League trophy and domestic cup championships, he has won countless honors, if people who don't know listen to it, it's like listening to a story, but this is already a reality!"

"Wan Sheng has been in charge of Manchester City for three seasons, they have improved in each season, and now they have reached the top, but not many people will be surprised, and it seems to be what Manchester City deserves!"

'Why are Manchester City so strong? Of course it's 10,000 wins, it's not our answer, it's the answer that Manchester City fans, including all the media, the players. ”

"In the media, Wansheng's personal evaluation has always been controversial, this Chinese with a prominent personality makes many people dislike, but when it comes to coaching ability, anyone should give a thumbs up, he seems to be a natural head coach!"

Perhaps, any praise on Wan Sheng looks so pale, so perhaps, someone still remembers what Wan Sheng said to the media for the first time after coming to Manchester City? He said, 'He came to Manchester City, it is the greatest honor of Manchester City in a century', at that time, many people said that he was arrogant, said that he was arrogant, but now in retrospect, Wan Sheng simply spent three seasons to interpret what he said! ”

“…………”

At the end of the BBC broadcast coverage of the game, Ryan John kept talking about Wan Sheng, praising Wan Sheng in various words.

Compared to other media outlets, these praises are not much at all.

At this moment, almost all the media in Europe and the world are praising Manchester City and Wan Sheng, because Manchester City is the Champions League champion, and as the winner, they deserve praise.

Even the media, who have a great 'hatred' for Wan Sheng, will do this, and tonight is destined to belong to Manchester City, who need to put any dissatisfaction and hatred in their stomachs, and only praise can be spoken.

That's what the victors have to enjoy.

This may already be the 'unspoken rule-rule' of European football, as long as it is a football media, it must abide by this rule, if it is not followed, then do not say anything, otherwise it will definitely receive countless complaints the next day!

So tonight, they have to keep any grievances in their hearts!

――――

After the medal ceremony, the celebrations continued for more than an hour before the fans gradually left the stadium and the players returned to the dressing rooms.

Every player is smiling.

They kept playing and making all kinds of exaggerated celebrations to vent their excitement, but when they got to the locker room, they couldn't laugh.

Wan Sheng had already gone back to the locker room.

He stood in the middle of the dressing room, with a serious face, and didn't say a word to any of the players.

After waiting for everyone to enter the locker room, Wan Sheng nodded to everyone and raised his voice and said, "We won the European championship today, and this night should have been very happy, but there is something I have to tell you." ”

Everybody has seen it.

"I'm leaving."

Wan Sheng shrugged his shoulders as he spoke, trying his best to look indifferent, but the atmosphere in the locker room instantly became much more solemn because of this sentence.

"I'm leaving, it's not a media statement, it's a fact. I've thought about it a long time ago, but in order not to distract everyone, I'm not telling you until now. ”

"It's been three years, most of you were brought to Manchester City by me, and a few of you are still former Derby County players, and I'm a little reluctant to each of you, of course, it's not a life-or-death parting......," Wan Sheng said with a smile, which also lightened the atmosphere a little, "but I do have to leave." Now that we've won the Grand Slam, we've won all the titles, and we're at the top of European football, I think it's time to talk to everyone about it! (To be continued.) )
