From the man behind the football king to the football king.

Chapter 336 King of Europe

When Clattenberg blew the three whistles at the end of the game, all the French players could not accept this reality - the powerful French team actually lost to the weak Portugal?

Although the French team has lost to Portugal in friendly matches in the past two years, not many French players take this seriously.

Just a friendly match!

But today, in the European Cup final, they lost again!

How can this be? !

You know, before the game, everyone was optimistic about them because they were the biggest favorites because their opponents didn't even have a good rest the night before the game.

The direction after the start of the game was actually developing towards them. The referee was obviously biased and the opponent lost their captain and spiritual leader early on.

But in the end, it was the French team that lost!

………………

Bruno and his teammates hugged each other and celebrated the victory. The French players were all stunned, and some even shed tears of sadness.

The dream of winning a third European Cup was shattered.

"It seems that Deschamps' French dynasty will have to wait a while to be established!" the German commentator said with a hint of sarcasm when he saw the French players displayed on the screen.

Deschamps was on the pitch comforting his players.

The defeat in the final was definitely a heavy blow to him and his team, but he was not discouraged. Because France is still the strongest team on the planet, Portugal's European Cup victory only shows that they are very lucky and strong this season, but it does not mean that they have always been like this.

But France can always be like this. Today we failed in the European Cup final, and we will make a comeback in the World Cup two years later!

This is the foundation, strength and confidence of a super wealthy team.

Deschamps patted the players on the shoulders and said to them: "Don't be discouraged, this is just an accident, we will come back in two years!"

On the Portuguese side, Santos had long been surrounded by his own players and then thrown high.

He led this team for two years, winning one victory after another. Without him, Portugal would not be what it is today. Whether it is Cristiano Ronaldo or Bruno, his contribution is not as great as his, so he deserves to enjoy such courtesy.

Cristiano Ronaldo also returned to the court, still limping a bit. He raised his hands in the air and hugged those around him.

………………

The Stade de France has become a sea of ​​joy - certainly for Portuguese fans.

The Portuguese fans in the stands shed tears while singing and cheering.

They don't know what to do but do this.

Bruno was surrounded by reporters at the first moment. He was the most dazzling star of the game. There was no doubt that he would be selected as the best player in the game, and he might even win the most valuable player of this European Cup.

"Bruno! Look here!"

"Look here, look here, hey! Bruno!"

The photographers yelled at Bruno to look at their shots, so Bruno turned his head this way and smiled that way.

Of course, the most popular ones are all kinds of microphones, recorders and mobile phones.

"First of all, congratulations on winning the European Cup. Is there anything special you want to say now?"

"I'm very happy!" Bruno raised his arms and shouted. He was really excited. "I'm very happy to win this championship!"

A reporter asked Bruno: "Do you have anything special to say about this game?"

"Yes, we overcame all kinds of difficulties and finally won the European Cup. This is the highest honor in a football player's career. For me, it is like this, the highest honor!" Bruno was so excited that he was a little incoherent, which is very rare. After all, as the midfield commander, he remains calm most of the time.

But not today. The honor of the European Cup is so exciting that Bruno can't hold it anymore.

Even though he was so determined and calm during the game, after the game he still released his inner emotions like other players.

………………

"Does beating France make you feel particularly good?" a Spanish reporter asked.

<divclass="contentadv">Bruno nodded: "Yes, they are the most powerful team in world football today. I am very happy to be able to defeat them in such an important final. Such a championship comes very often. No one will say that we only got this championship due to bad luck!"

Bruno's answer was sonorous and powerful, and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant. He neither said that France was invincible in the universe and that defeating them was purely a fluke, nor did he deliberately belittle their opponents and say that they were vulnerable.

"Is it a miracle to lead Portugal to win the European Cup when Ronaldo is absent due to injury?"

Bruno shook his head and said: "No, this is not a miracle. This is proof of our strength. Starting from the European Cup qualifiers, we have created many good results. These are not miracles, they are all done by ourselves!"

In Bruno's confident face, many reporters saw the fundamental reason for this team's success.

There was a French reporter who still couldn't accept the fact that his team lost to Portugal. When he asked the question, he was a bit sour, as if he was deliberately trying to trouble Bruno who was celebrating. He asked: "Today, coach Santos said that you were in the meeting last night." You were harassed, but judging from your performance tonight, it doesn’t seem like that. Does this mean Coach Santos is lying, Bruno?”

Such a question was definitely not friendly. The reporters around him were stunned for a moment, and a Portuguese reporter was even more annoyed.

But Bruno's answer surprised everyone and made everyone laugh.

He said seriously: "The whole world can see that the fatigue of Portuguese players is obvious. But it is precisely because of the bad behavior of some fans that angered all Portuguese players, including me. I once heard that in China There is an old saying that every man is angry and his blood spills five steps, so I gave a hat-trick to those French fans who ran downstairs of their hotel early in the morning and made noise. I hope they like it."

………………

The players of the loser France quickly retreated to the locker room, and soon they had to come out to receive the award. This was real suffering for them.

The proud French players, who believed before the game that they were sure to win, but that the game would have some twists and turns, now have to become the foil and supporting role of the champion.

This is really an unacceptable situation for them who are proud.

"France, considered invincible, the most powerful team in world football today, was defeated! They lost in the most critical game that should not be lost! The one who defeated them was a Portugal team that encountered various difficulties! This team The team has created a miracle!" The commentator was still summarizing the game passionately.

"How is a miracle created? Look at the performance of the Portuguese team in this game, especially their performance after the team captain left the field early due to injury, I think you can know. Bruno's performance is just a microcosm , if he was the only one who performed well, it would be absolutely impossible for Portugal to defeat France!"

"Congratulations to them! They used their brave actions to bankrupt the conspiracy of French fans. They let everyone know that in front of a top competition like the European Cup final, conspiracy is useless! I think this is what this final means to us. The biggest meaning for us. A team that encountered various difficulties defeated a noble and wealthy team, and it also used an upright method, which is impeccable. I think even the most extreme French fans should also feel at this time Nothing to say!"

………………

The Portuguese players were crazy on the court for a while, and after accepting interviews with the media, they returned to the locker room. Everyone was still excited when they got back to the locker room, and they even started having fun in the locker room with their butts naked.

Because Bruno had to be interviewed by the media, he was the last one to enter the locker room. As a result, he was doused with champagne as soon as he opened the door!

"Welcome our hero!!!" Ronaldo stood on a stool, holding a bottle of champagne that had not yet been poured out, leading everyone to shout.

"Hero! Hero!!" The other teammates shouted in unison.

More champagne was poured from Ronaldo's hands, and Bruno was so embarrassed that he could only raise his hands to stop it.

But Bruno was not to be outdone. He quickly grabbed a bottle of champagne and sprayed it on his teammates.

The entire locker room was in a commotion.

In the end, everyone was done with the fuss, and under the leadership of Ronaldo, they shouted: "Champion! Champion! We - are the champions! Champions! Champions! We - are the champions!!"

This scene was of course captured by the media who flocked to the scene. Some people threw wine at the photographers to let them participate and feel their happiness.

Finally, under the urging of the assistant coach, these crazy players went to the bathroom to wash down the champagne in a hurry. Some of them even didn't even take a shower, so they just put on their new jerseys and went out.

………………

In fact, while they were still making noise in the locker room, the runner-up award ceremony had already begun.

Portugal celebrated so wildly that they lost track of time. The French team, who were waiting impatiently outside, took the lead in presenting the award.

One by one, they walked onto the podium at the Stade de France, shook hands with UEFA acting president Vera, and then received the silver medal from him. Only a few people would lower their heads and let Vera hang the silver medal around their necks. More people took the silver medal from Vera's hand and held it directly in their hands, with expressions of frustration and unwillingness.

Of course they have reason to be unwilling, because they lost to a team that didn't have a good rest! Even this team lost its captain and spiritual leader after only ten minutes of the game, and the opponent also had a player who scored the first hat trick in the history of the European Cup finals during the game, and this is even more shameful. Something?
