Super Marshal

Having just finished a high-intensity game, Barcelona's players returned to the locker room, rested for a while, and then returned to the stadium to prepare for the final awards ceremony.

During this period of time, Manchester City has completed the celebration after winning the championship, and has also accepted interviews from media reporters. They are waiting for the award ceremony to begin. The staff are also busy engraving on the back of the St. Bradford Cup. Manchester City's name, this is a routine after every Champions League final.

As soon as Barcelona came on the field, they were immediately surrounded by media reporters squatting in the field.

Everyone hopes to hear their feelings at this moment and their opinions on this final.

Xavi, the team's core midfielder, said that Barcelona had tried its best, but unfortunately, they still lost the game.

"We lost to the magical cold." Harvey sighed with regret.

"In this past Champions League final, Gao Han and his team gave the world a vivid football lesson with their outstanding performance. Everyone saw the performance of him and his team. He taught everyone We learned a lesson, and although we lost the game in the end, each of us benefited a lot from it.”

"In this game, we lost the Champions League, but we gained growth and saw our own shortcomings. I believe that next time we have the opportunity to meet again, we will use a better performance to defeat our opponents."

Swedish center Ibrahimovic also accepted a live interview with a Spanish national television reporter. He said that Gao Han deserved to win the championship.

"We made a lot of efforts but still failed to win the championship, which made us extremely frustrated. But I don't think losing to Gao Han is the end of the world. I have played under him and I know that he is a good player. A born winner.”

"Barcelona is full of potential now, and we should fully tap and utilize this potential. From this perspective, I think losing the Champions League final is not necessarily a bad thing for us."

Barcelona captain Puyol also said that he was speechless after losing to the cold Manchester City.

"Finals like this are always particularly difficult, and we all tried our best, and that was enough for us."

Messi, the team's soul general, also spoke highly of Gao Han's performance tonight.

"What he did is unbelievable." Messi did not hesitate to praise him. "I think at this moment we cannot fully understand how significant this game will be to the entire football world, but Gao Han won This is his fourth Champions League title in the past eleven years of coaching, and there is no doubt that he will win more in the future."

"I don't know how to describe my mood at this moment. I am a little disappointed and a little frustrated, but I admire Gao Han very much and am proud of his achievements. I will never forget the guidance he once gave me. and advice, I am where I am today thanks to him.”

"I don't think any amount of praise he gets is too much."

Head coach Guardiola also said sincerely that losing to anyone would make him angry, but losing to Gao Han left him speechless, and Gao Han deserved to win in this game.

"Whether it was from formation or on-the-spot command, he did an impeccable job. The whole game was under the control of Manchester City. We were just forced to react again and again, which we rarely encountered. Such a passive game.”

"However, today's game made us see our shortcomings clearly, but this is also the source of our improvement."

"I won't think too much about this game because it's over. Then I need to think about the team's long-term plan for the future and some issues for next season."

As for outside rumors, Gao Han is likely to leave the Manchester City coaching position after winning the Champions League. When Guardiola was Gao Han's first candidate, the Barcelona coach said that he had never considered this issue.

"I don't know where the news came from, but I can be 200% sure that Gao Han has never mentioned this matter to me. This is not in line with his style, and I am the head coach of Barcelona. At least so far, I have no intention of leaving the team."

Obviously, after losing this final, Guardiola still wants to win another Champions League. He is thinking more about how to strengthen the lineup rather than leaving Barcelona.

While being interviewed in Barcelona, ​​the award ceremony was also ready. The Saint-Bride Cup was also welcomed to the awards stand in the President's Stand, and everyone in the audience began to applaud and cheer.

Under the leadership of Gao Han, Manchester City players lined up on both sides of the entrance to the awards stand to welcome Barcelona to the stage to receive the award.

Players from both teams are very familiar with each other, and some have even been teammates, so when passing by Barcelona, ​​people kept hugging and being polite, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

After the entire Barcelona team passed by, Manchester City also began to line up, preparing to go on stage to receive the award.

Winning the Saint-Bride Cup at Wembley Stadium, the palace of English football, undoubtedly won Manchester City the support of all fans in the UK tonight, even fans of Manchester United.

Along the 107 steps, all the way up, arms were constantly stretched out, and people kept congratulating Manchester City. Everyone in Manchester City received unprecedented courtesy, especially the head coach Gao Han, who was at the end of the queue, and almost left the stands. The fanatic fans pulled him down, and in the end, guards had to be sent out for personal protection.

After finally reaching the podium, everyone passing by along the way was a well-known political figure in Europe.

There is British Prime Minister David Cameron, who just came to power last year, Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero, Prince Charles and Prince William, who are representatives of the British royal family, and high-level officials from the European Union. It can be said that the entire European political arena has been brought together. powerful people.

Of course, tonight's award guest, UEFA President Platini, is also indispensable.

On the rostrum, the ones with the brightest smiles were British Prime Minister Cameron and members of the royal family. They were all delighted that Manchester City could beat Barcelona to win the championship, so the players who embraced Manchester City were often particularly excited, especially when Gao Han came from them. They all seemed particularly enthusiastic as they passed by.

Gao Han felt like a leader on patrol. Every time he passed in front of someone, the other person would say congratulations and compliments, and he would smile in return and reply with polite words such as thank you. This made his face smile. The muscles are a little numb.

After finally arriving in front of Platini, Gao Han smiled and hugged the UEFA president, accepting the championship medal he sent to him. He already has many similar medals, and they are all at home in Madrid, Lake Como and Munich. They each have one, and now they have one at home here in Cheshire.

After receiving the medal, Gao Han stood aside and watched Manchester City captain Xavi Alonso and the team's top superstar Cristiano Ronaldo raise the St. Bernard's medal high as Platini presented the award. Ryder Cup.

At this moment, the entire Wembley Stadium burst into thunderous applause and cheers.

Along with the banging sound, colorful ribbons slowly fell from the air.

This scene was also captured by media reporters from all over the world, as well as live television cameras in more than 100 countries and regions, and was quickly transmitted to every corner of the world.

Gao Han retreated behind the players and watched everything with a smile.

He felt a strange movement coming from his coaching system, and with a thought, he immediately entered the coaching system.

Sure enough, four-fifths of the championship collector's task had been completed, and the mark representing the Premier League lit up, which meant that Gao Han was close to completing this task.

He is looking forward to it very much and wants to know what kind of reward he will get after completing this task?

Will it be the ultimate prize?

Just as Gao Han was immersed in the coaching system, Manchester City's players had already taken turns holding the trophy, and began to walk off the podium, into the stadium, and began to celebrate after receiving the award. At the same time, they also accepted photos from all the media reporters at the scene, but standing there Platini in front of Gao Han slightly raised his head.

"Regarding the recent media hype, we need to express our attitude as soon as possible."

Platini's rambling words made Gao Han withdraw from the coaching system. He was a little stunned, but he soon understood that he was talking about the conflict of interests between himself and Chinatown.

In the past, due to the Champions League, although the media had hype and attention, it was not particularly fierce. But now that he has won the Champions League, all the media will definitely attack again. When the time comes, the relationship between him and Chinatown Conflicts of interest are also set to become more problematic.

Regarding this matter, Gao Han can understand UEFA's difficulties. With public opinion around the world so turbulent, it would be unreasonable if UEFA did not express its attitude as soon as possible, especially since Platini is also a problem now. Quite a few.

For example, a few days ago, the French media broke the news that he might be involved in vote-buying in Qatar, which is very detrimental to him.

Under the current circumstances, he can still remember Gao Han, which shows that he is quite a good person.

"Don't worry, I can understand." Gao Han replied lightly.

Platini was a little embarrassed. A year ago, he finally persuaded Gao Han to come forward, work for the Spanish Football Association, resolve the deadlock in La Liga, and protect the interests of the Spanish Football Association. But now something went wrong with Gao Han, but he didn't. The way to deal with it is indeed somewhat unjustifiable.

"I had people study the terms before. I personally think that if you can resign as Manchester City's chief technical officer and only serve as the head coach, if you can temporarily calm public opinion, then this matter will be easily solved."

Platini whispered, "In the rules and regulations, the head coach is not the core decision-maker of the club. As for whether you really have the power to make decisions, who can say for sure?"

Gao Han understands what Platini means, and also knows that the UEFA president really wants to help him save the situation. This is indeed a very good strategy. If UEFA comes forward to endorse it at that time, maybe this matter The matter can be revealed like this.

But Gao Han obviously had other plans, so he shook his head and sighed: "It's better not to bother. You also know how difficult reporters are, not to mention your current situation..."

"Forget it, I will resign from all positions in Manchester City in the next few days, and then I will concentrate on being the chairman of my Chinatown."

At the end of the sentence, Gao Han laughed freely. This was something he had planned long ago.

But how did Platini know about Gao Han's plan?

You know, according to the latest information, Manchester City's recent annual salary to Gao Han is said to be a sky-high 100 million euros after tax. This is an irresistible temptation for anyone. If it were Platini, he would probably not even have the European Union. The chairman of the Football Federation no longer works.

Therefore, in Platini's view, Gao Han's move is to preserve Chinatown, and at the same time he does not want to embarrass himself and UEFA.

But this also made him, the president of UEFA, feel even more guilty, and he felt even more ashamed and guilty towards Gao Han.
