The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 1299
1299 We’re Lucky to Have Roja
Champion!
Leeds United won the 2009 World Club Cup!
The championship didn’t seem heavy, but every team that came here wanted to win it.
Because this championship is actually very rare.
A world-renowned football star once said: “We don’t have many chances to participate in the Intercontinental Club in our lifetime. It can be said that we have very, very few chances. The chances of winning the championship are even less!”
The star also said: “Although I played for 20 years and then coached for 10 years, I have only played in two Club Intercontinental Cup games (the predecessor of the Club World Cup).” In other words, in 30 years, I have participated in only two such games, one as a player and the other as a coach leading the team. I won the championship one time and lost the other.
This star was the world famous Cruyff!
Even a famous football star like Cruyff had participated in the club’s intercontinental games twice in his life, so it could be seen that this championship was extremely rare.
Yes, after all, in Europe you want to play in the Club World Cup only if you meet one condition: you have to win the Champions League.
Winning the Champions League is a very, very difficult task in itself. It was this one that intercepted countless famous stars because they could not win the Champions League.
Moreover, no team has ever defended a Champions League title since the restructuring of the Champions League. So far, no European team has played in the World Club Cup for two consecutive years.
Cristiano Ronaldo, the first European Champions League champion to defend his title after the Champions League transformation, also has no chance of playing in the World Cup.
He joined Leeds United after winning the Champions League for Manchester United. This was his first time participating in the World Club Cup.
Therefore, to be able to participate in the World Club competition is already very rare.
Now that Leeds United have won the Club World Cup, it’s even more rare!
Leeds United also attach great importance to this title. Many players even think that this is perhaps their only chance to win the World Cup in their lifetime, so they cherish it very much.
The weight was not heavy, but it was very rare.
The Leeds United players felt that the good times of the past few days were worth it and that the glory was worth it.
“Congratulations Leeds United! Congratulations Leeds United, Leeds United is the champion!” Eddie Gray was so excited and excited that they couldn’t wait any longer.
Now it’s the final awards ceremony.
However, Leeds United and the others will still have to wait for a while, and there is still a runner-up, the La Plata University Team, ahead of them to receive the award.
At this time, the La Plata University team’s players were in a slightly better mood and stabilized.
Earlier, at the end of the game, many of the La Plata University team players shed tears of sadness. They were filled with regret and their moods were very bad.
However, it was much better now.
To be able to reach the second place was actually not bad. However, not being able to win the championship was still filled with regret in his heart.
The La Plata undergraduate team’s players slowly stepped onto the stage and won medals representing the runner-up from the FIFA president. Most importantly, they would also receive a handsome prize money.
Participation in this competition, the club will receive some prizes, naturally these players will also live to receive some of the club’s prizes. The runners-up could actually get quite a bit of prize money, so the players of the La Plata University team were still satisfied.
Sabella’s mood had always been low. After all, she did not win the championship!
Yes, not winning the championship was a failure!
Although Sabella thought that Zhong Cheng was very powerful, he was still very convinced that he had lost this match. However, this did not mean that he believed that he could not do it. He firmly believed that the next time he met Leeds United, he would definitely be able to defeat Zhong Cheng.
Very quickly, the La Plata College players finished receiving the prize.
“Now we invite Leeds United, the 2009 Club World Cup winner, to receive the award!” The host’s voice came from the loudspeakers, and everyone present could hear it clearly.
The Leeds United fans immediately screamed excitedly, singing “We’re Champions”.
The Leeds United fans were really, really excited. They were now Grand Slam champions, and this had happened in recent years. They felt that they were now the happiest fans in the world, none of them.
“The success of Leeds United has come too quickly and has exceeded our expectations. Leeds United were really amazing. Loria’s leadership of Leeds United had ushered in a brand new era. It was an era that belonged to Leeds United’s wealthy family. “Now let’s congratulate Leeds United. They are the 2009 World Cup champions. Congratulations to them!” Mark Lawrenson also congratulated them.
“Now the Leeds United players are on stage and we are the champions. Long live Cristiano Ronaldo, long live Loria, long live Leeds United!” Eddie Gray was indeed an ordinary fan, not a commentator.
Eddie Gray was so excited that he felt like he was there.
The Leeds United players walked up to the podium one by one, with FIFA president Sepp Blatter waiting for them.
The first to step onto the stage was Leeds United striker Ryan Levandovsky!
Levandovsky was really excited. He had won the Club World Cup at such a young age. He really felt that he was too lucky. His career could be considered complete.
Levandovsky was filled with gratitude. He was grateful that Zhong Cheng had brought him to Leeds United and trusted him so much. He was very happy, very excited, very happy.
Thank you, boss!
Levandovsky took the gold medal from Blatter and then walked to the center of the podium, waiting for his teammates to lift the trophy.
The Leeds United players walked up one by one to receive the prize.
The Leeds United fans did not listen to the singing. They finished singing the Leeds United team song and then sang “We are Champions”. The two songs were kept on singing in cycles. They were really too excited.
At this moment, Leeds United fans wanted to rush out of the arena, standing around the podium, celebrating with Leeds United players and cheering wildly.
The Leeds United players went on stage one by one to receive their awards. The Leeds United fans shouted the names of these players one by one. This made the Leeds United players extremely excited. This gave them an unparalleled honor. They were truly grateful to these lovely fans.
“Leeds United’s fans are really cute. It’s hard for Leeds to not succeed with such a group of fans! I’m here to congratulate Loria. He’s really lucky to have such a good group of fans!” Said Mark Lawrenson.
“No, no, no! Mark, you’re wrong! It’s our Leeds United fans who are lucky. We’re really lucky. God gave us Leeds United such a good coach and a good president. Thank God, thank you, King Loria!” Eddie Gray said immediately.
Mark Lawrenson was staring at his partner in surprise. He had never expected Eddie Gray to give Zhong Cheng such a high evaluation.
But then again. Zhong Cheng was indeed very, very outstanding. Regardless of which team he went to, he would receive such treatment.
Perhaps, as Eddie Gray had said, they were lucky to be able to use Zhong Cheng.
Almost all of Leeds United’s players were on stage, and only three remained.
Zhong Zheng was last as captain of the team because he was going to receive the trophy from FIFA president Sepp Blatter. In front of Zhong Zheng was Zhong Cheng, who was standing in the penultimate position. In front of Zhong Cheng was one of the biggest contributors to the match, Cristiano Ronaldo. Now was the time for Cristiano Ronaldo to come on stage.
When Cristiano Ronaldo went on stage, the Leeds United fans cheered wildly and played Call for Cristiano Ronaldo!
After Cristiano Ronaldo received the award, it was Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng slowly walked towards the podium. The Leeds United fans immediately sang the song they had written for Zhong Cheng. At the same time, they frantically shouted Zhong Cheng’s name, cheering for Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng waved to the Leeds United fans and climbed onto the podium.
Blatter smiled at Zhong Cheng and said, “You are really an excellent coach. Young man, the future belongs to you. I believe I will see you here again. Congratulations!”
Zhong Cheng sincerely thanked, “Thank you!”
After saying that, Zhong Cheng and Blatter gave each other a big hug.
Finally, Leeds United captain Zhong Zheng walked up. All Leeds United fans applauded wildly and shouted Zhong Zheng’s name.
Zhong Zheng walked to the podium with vigorous steps. He won the gold medal from FIFA President Sepp Blatter and also received the World Club Cup trophy from him.
Holding the trophy, Zhong Zheng immediately arrived at the center of the podium, surrounded by the Leeds United players.
“Let’s welcome the 2009 World Club Cup champion, Leeds United!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
At this moment, Zhong Zheng immediately raised the championship trophy in his hand high above his head and let out a howl like a fierce tiger-ah!
Immediately, countless fireworks burst out from the surroundings of the podium and soared into the sky. At the same time, countless colorful fragments would fall from the sky. The entire podium was dressed like a dream.
All of this shows that Leeds United is the champion of the 2009 World Club Cup!
The Beatles’ famous song “We are Champions” was played on the speakers at the scene:
“I have fulfilled my responsibilities over and over again
I can do what I say every time, and I have not committed any crimes or mistakes
We have to keep moving forward
My friends, we will fight until the end
We are champions
We are champions
There is no reason for failure
Because we’re champions
You have brought me fame and wealth and everything that has to do with it
I see him as a challenge
I’m going straight ahead. ”
