Chapter 415: End the vacation early and prepare for the World Cup!

"aoaooaooaooooo——"

“ale ale ale…”

"we are the champion!"

"Invincible Arsenal, three consecutive Champions League titles!"

……

Arsenal fans at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev chanted hysterically, and the on-site director showed the camera to the engraver in the stadium who was carving a new name on the front of the Saint-Bride Cup for newly crowned Champions League champion Arsenal.

The atmosphere on the court was fanatical, and every fan was immersed in it, cheering almost crazily for the team that won the game.

UEFA staff are working hard to build a temporary podium to prepare for the upcoming awards ceremony.

Reporters in the mixed zone flocked to Martin, who was performing superbly.

Arsenal celebrities and club executives in the VIP seats were in a very good mood, hugging each other and celebrating the team's third consecutive Champions League title.

Not long after, the Arsenal fans in the audience began to sing "Martin's Song".

This fan song, which is popular among Arsenal fans, spread to the entire stadium in a very short period of time.

Martin bid farewell to Ronaldo and returned to the team with a slightly raised corner of his mouth. He raised his right hand high, looked around 360 degrees and waved to his enthusiastic fans.

Later, Martin and his teammates changed into the logistics staff and distributed championship commemorative T-shirts with the Arabic numeral [3] printed on them.

The implication is the third Champions League championship in team history!

The Real Madrid players who lost the final gradually adjusted their mentality after a short period of time and gradually accepted the result of the loss.

But accept it, accept it, and the uncomfortable emotions still exist.

The UEFA staff were very efficient. In about ten minutes, a temporary award podium with the sponsor's logo was set up near the center line facing the main stand.

The huge number of UEFA Champions League award-winning guests are all in place.

The on-site announcer received a notice from the field control and announced that the referee Marzic's referee team would receive the commemorative medals.

Next came the Real Madrid players who lost in the final, and they received the silver medals symbolizing the runners-up.

Many Real Madrid players were dissatisfied with losing in the final and stayed on the court purely to complete the process.

After receiving the silver commemorative medal handed over by the award-giving guest, he decisively left the stadium.

Some players chose to leave their medals and walk to the tunnel to hand over the scene to Arsenal who won the Champions League final.

Some players threw silver medals to fans as they did at last season's Champions League final awards ceremony.

But the world's focus will never be on these people for long.

It’s the champions who really get the attention!

As the last Real Madrid player Nacho received the commemorative silver medal from the 2017-2018 Champions League final, the fanatical atmosphere at the Kyiv Olympic Stadium has increased significantly.

Impatient Arsenal fans began to create a frenzied atmosphere for the upcoming championship ceremony with huge hysterical chants.

Although this is Arsenal's third consecutive Champions League trophy, the Arsenal fans who came to the scene were still ecstatic and couldn't wait.

The same goes for many fans in front of the TV. They want to see captain Martin lift the trophy that symbolizes the Champions League championship as soon as possible.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now please invite all members of Arsenal, the champions of the UEFA Champions League in the 2017-2018 season, to come on stage to receive..."

With the high-pitched and inflammatory shouts of the live announcer, the atmosphere at the Kyiv Olympic Stadium has been qualitatively improved.

Mahrez, draped in the Algerian flag, led the way and stepped onto the stage from the side of the podium to receive the commemorative gilded gold medal.

Cavani, Kanter, Ramsey, Welbeck and other players followed suit.

If we follow the usual order of appearance, Martin will definitely come last as the finale.

But the just-concluded Champions League final was the last game of coach Wenger's coaching career. Martin was the penultimate player to enter the game, leaving the final opportunity to coach Wenger.

"Arsena!!"

Overwhelming shouts swept the entire venue.

Wenger felt the love from all the Arsenal fans and pursed his lips, trying not to reveal his true feelings.

Several award presenters symbolically tried to retain Wenger, saying that his retirement would be a great loss to world football.

In a fanatical atmosphere, Wenger, carrying the gold medal, slowly walked to the winner's display area on the podium.

According to Martin's idea, he originally wanted Wenger to receive the St. Petersburg Cup, but he was declined.

So Captain Martin walked towards UEFA President Ceferin and took the Saint-Bride Cup from him, which symbolizes the Champions League trophy.

Martin held the two big ears of the trophy in both hands and slowly walked towards the display area.

"Arsenal fans watching the game live, are you ready?"

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun watched Martin standing in the C position vacated by the Arsenal players, and his high-pitched voice rose an octave.

"Arsenal!"

"He is the champion!!"

Martin held the trophy high, and James shouted impassionedly.

"aooaoaoaooaoooo——"

The Arsenal fans at the Kyiv Olympic Stadium were also immersed in this moment, releasing all their passion and elongating their voices hysterically.

There is no doubt that this night belongs to Arsenal fans.

Real Madrid fans who lost also had sleepless nights, but they were suffering from insomnia.

Arsenal fans at the awards ceremony released their energy for a long time and cheered for the team that won the championship.

The Arsenal players, who were holding the championship trophy, were also affected by the fanatical atmosphere at the scene and responded passionately.

As a result, the fans in the audience became even more crazy.

※※※※※

The 2017-2018 UEFA Champions League final ended with Arsenal winning the championship 4:1 at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev.

The trending topics on social media platforms almost always revolve around Arsenal winning the Champions League for the third consecutive season.

Captain Martin, as before, became a front-page promotion star.

#UEFA Champions League final hat-trick, the number one superstar in football! #

#DominationPerformance! Martin makes all the giants eclipse! #

#horrorstory: The strongest player in football is only 21 years and 7 months old! #

#Meiro is a thing of the past, the future and the future... will all belong to Martin! #

……

Often at this time, the most injured person is still the Dragon Football Association.

The ones who benefited the most were not only Arsenal, who won the championship, but also the major brands that signed Martin.

As Martin has grown from being famous since childhood to becoming the world's top football superstar, the brands he endorses can be said to be making a lot of money.

……

At the regular press conference after the game, Zidane, who lost, took the initiative to take responsibility for the loss and announced that he had sent his resignation to Real Madrid President Florentino by text message.

Reporters in the press conference hall were not surprised by Zidane's choice. After all, Real Madrid, as the best football club of the century, is star-studded.

With top stars sitting in every position, losing to Arsenal in the Champions League final for three consecutive seasons is certainly unjustifiable.

In particular, the tactical level shown in the three Champions League finals plummeted, making many Real Madrid fans dissatisfied.

In the 2015-2016 Champions League final, Real Madrid was able to stabilize Arsenal. If it weren't for Martin's countdown, they would have won the 11th Champions League title in team history.

In the 2016-2017 Champions League final, Arsenal's overall performance has been greatly improved, but the Real Madrid team can compete with Arsenal on a tactical level.

By the 2017-2018 Champions League final, it can be said that Arsenal's performance was dominant, but it can also be said that Real Madrid's overall performance declined.

Although the game is played by the players, the biggest responsibility in many cases is the head coach.

Zidane's voluntary resignation is a good result for both parties.

Twenty minutes later, winning Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger and captain Martin attended the regular post-match press conference.

The media reporters who had been waiting for a long time immediately pressed the shutter in their hands and recorded the wonderful moment of the two people being drowned.

These media reporters knew early on that this game was the last game of Wenger's coaching career and it ended in victory. The questions they raised naturally revolved around the game itself and Wenger's plans for the future.

He thought for a moment before smiling: "For a perfect coaching career, the thing I should be most grateful for is the captain sitting next to me."

Martin smiled but said nothing.

Wenger smiled and shrugged: "Three consecutive Grand Slam seasons, there is nothing better than ending my coaching career with such results. If I have to say one regret, it is that in the summer of 2014, I could actually get it for a seven-digit price." The current Arsenal captain was appointed a year too late, and the club's finances cost more than million euros..."

Everyone laughed involuntarily while listening to Wenger's story-like memories.

In August 2014, many teams took a fancy to Martin, who had shined in Portugal's Hope Cup. However, Wenger and his scouting team were not particularly optimistic about Martin's potential, so they did not agree to Mendes' proposal. Stable playing opportunities, so Martin joined Wolfsburg.

We all know the rest of the story.

In just one season, Martin joined Arsenal in a Premier League transfer record.

Many media reporters who follow Arsenal and Wenger have read Wenger's autobiography published last year. The content mentioned how to sign Martin, and all of them are in awe of Wenger.

A successful head coach personally persuaded the slightly famous Martin to join him through a 'chance encounter', which is simply the masterpiece of Corporal Li Xian.

The Dragon Kingdom reporters in the crowd were even more disgusted with the Football Association.

We don’t need someone to be as courteous as Wenger, but we should at least respect talents, right?

The key is that the Football Association's talents are disrespectful and don't say anything, and they drive people away.

In popular terms among domestic fans, it is: God’s operation.

After interviewing Wenger, the media reporters turned their focus to Martin.

He first thanked Professor Wenger for his key training in the past three years, and then wished the professor good health and all the best in the future.

When reporters talked about the future, he smiled and said: "The future is full of uncertainty. My focus will soon shift to the World Cup of the Fighting Nations next month to fulfill my late adoptive father's dream."

The media reporters present were all refreshed.

They seemed to read between the lines.

The future is full of uncertainty?

Does this mean that he may not be at Arsenal in the future?

Reporters are obviously willing to believe in such a possibility.

Wenger has retired. As long as the future Arsenal head coach does not make mistakes, he will definitely continue to reuse Martin. However, Martin has won too many honors at Arsenal and can definitely challenge a new environment.

The most important thing is that the weather in London is very bad, much worse than in Spain, Italy, Germany and France.

Europe's top football clubs have also stated early that as long as Martin joins, the annual salary number can be filled in casually.

After answering reporters' questions, Martin and Wenger stood up at the same time, hugged each other, and finally waved goodbye to the reporters at the scene.

……

The Arsenal team returned to their hotel to continue the party.

The Fighting Nations World Cup will start next month. Players representing the national team still have five days off, and then they will report to the hotel where they are staying at the national team training ground to prepare for the final World Cup group stage.

Taking this situation into account, the Arsenal Club moved the city's championship parade to the afternoon of the second day of the Champions League final, and the team's carnival did not last long.

The next morning, the entire Arsenal team took a flight back to London.

At exactly two o'clock in the afternoon, the city-wide championship parade that had been planned early began.

Affected by Wenger's retirement, more Arsenal fans came to North London than in the previous two years.

They all know that they will not see Wenger participating in the team's championship parade around the city as Arsenal manager in the future.

In order to thank Wenger for his contribution to Arsenal over the past two decades, many fans from around the world traveled across the ocean.

[Thank you Wenger], it is also an important process in the city's championship parade.

It was another day for fans from Tottenham to be violently attacked.

Looking at the countless trophies, I think about the handful of championship trophies in my team's honor room, and they are still very old. The most recent championship dates back to the EFL Cup ten years ago.

As the first team in Great Britain to win a European championship, it is really difficult for three generations of Tottenham fans to accept this bloody reality.

For Tottenham fans, the most painful thing in the world is to see their archrival Arsenal win all the championships for three consecutive years.

But at this time, some young people will often switch careers and become Arsenal fans.

Instead of out of sight, out of mind, it's better to join the great Arsenal fan community and celebrate championships in all competitions.

Due to the large number of Arsenal fans who poured into North London, the city-wide championship parade originally planned to last two hours lasted to three and a half hours.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the whole team held an awards ceremony within the team at the five-star hotel they cooperated with.

When everyone got up the next day, all the season bonuses were received.

……

Martin originally had a five-day vacation. With nothing to do, he chose to go to the Portuguese national team training base in advance to participate in the preparations for the World Cup.

What surprised him was that Ronaldo, the captain of the Portuguese national team who participated in the Champions League final, also returned early to participate in the three warm-up matches before the World Cup.

The two had just played an exciting match in the Champions League final, and just two days later they returned to the team in advance to prepare for the World Cup in a tacit understanding. Many media and fans were sighing.

Portugal is already the favorite to win the championship, and Cristiano Ronaldo and Martin have returned to the team early, which all shows how much they attach importance to the World Cup.

Media and fans from other World Cup favorites are becoming increasingly concerned...

In their view, even stealing a chicken is impossible.

The Spanish media "Marca" immediately updated the content on Instagram: Cristiano Ronaldo and Martin both returned to the team ahead of schedule to prepare for the World Cup. On the other hand, the Spanish international players playing for Real Madrid chose to take a vacation to "recuperate". It is really incomprehensible and must be recast. The odds of being on top of the world...are very low.

Closer to home.

The most watched of Portugal's three warm-up matches before the start of the World Cup was undoubtedly the World Cup group match against the Dragon Country men's football team.

Everyone knows that there is no suspense about the outcome of this game, but... the game has a story that sports media and fans around the world love.

Therefore, the international A-level warm-up match held in the Imperial Capital attracted the attention of the world.
