Chapter 557 One step away
Ligue 5 came to an end on May 27, and Yunsheng gave the players a day off to let everyone have a good rest.
On the morning of May 5, the entire Monaco team will fly to the Bernabéu to conduct training to adapt to the venue in advance and prepare for the Champions League final in advance.
After all, Monaco and Madrid have different climates, temperatures, and stadium conditions. It is always a good thing to prepare earlier.
On the morning of the 28th, the players were on vacation, but Yun Sheng did not rest. He brought Pu Luo and Makelele to the club to sort out some materials and make final preparations for the team.
This time he went to Madrid five days in advance, Yunsheng needed to bring all the information about Inter Milan that he had sorted out, so he had to be well prepared.
Since the end of the Champions League semi-finals, Yunsheng has been preparing the materials for Inter Milan.
Now his computer is full of video materials, and two boxes of documents have been printed in the conference room.
The three of them were tidying up while chatting, very relaxed.
Pro said with emotion: "The last time we participated in the Champions League final was in 2004. I didn't expect that we could participate in the Champions League final again in a blink of an eye. It's really great."
Makelele said with emotion the venue of the final: "The last time I played at the Bernabeu was a few years ago. I didn't expect to go back this time. Playing the last game of my career at the Bernabeu is really fate."
Yun Sheng asked: "Claude, are you sure you will retire at the end of the season? Don't think about it anymore? Although your physical fitness has declined a bit now, it is still no problem to play six or seven 10 minutes. You can actually play in Monaco for a few more years."
Makelele shook his head: "I can't play anymore and I'm tired. I think it's good to retire early. I can follow you wholeheartedly and learn the knowledge of coaching games from you. In the past two years, I have learned a lot. This is all thanks to your help."
Yun Sheng was silent for a moment, then he suddenly said: "Claude, in fact, your current coaching level is very good. If one day I am no longer in Monaco, you can take over my coach and become the coach of Monaco."
Makelele waved his hands again and again: "I'm still far behind. Seeing your achievements, I really pale in comparison."
Yun Sheng shrugged: "I'm just lucky, and not every new coach can win a bunch of championships every season."
Pu Luo smiled: "Why do I think you are showing off a little bit?"
"No, no, what I said is the truth, we Chinese people are very humble, haha."
Several people were chatting while packing up the materials.
At this moment, Yun Sheng's cell phone rang suddenly, he looked at it, it was Prince Albert's call.
"Hello, Your Royal Highness."
"Yunsheng, are you in the conference room now? Do you have time? I have something to do with you."
"Okay, no problem, I'll go now."
After hanging up the phone, Yun Sheng handed over the work to Pu Luo and Makelele: "The prince has something to do with me, I'll go over and have a look."
Pu Luo moved his wrist: "It is estimated that he wants to ask about the Champions League final. After all, he attaches great importance to this championship."
Makelele also said: "Boss, you go, leave this to us, and we can sort it out in a while."
Yun Sheng nodded, left the meeting room, and walked towards Albert's office.
When he came to the office, the door was open, Yun Sheng politely knocked on the door, and Albert said "Come in".
Walking into the room, Yun Sheng saw that the prince was staring at the honor cabinet next to him in a daze.
This is an honor cabinet specially made by Prince Albert, where all the championship trophies won by Monaco are placed.
Of course, the replicas are stored here, the originals are displayed in the Monaco Club Museum.
At the top of the honor cabinet, there are the honors of Monaco in the last two seasons.
Two championship trophies, two French Union Cups, two French Cups, and a French Super Cup.
Seven championship trophies, this is the honor Yunsheng won in Monaco for two years.
In the history of the Ligue [-], no coach can manage to win seven championships in two years. Based on this, Yunsheng is already one of the most successful coaches in Ligue [-].
And in the center of the highest part of the honor cabinet, there is a particularly eye-catching empty space.
The prince stared at the cabinet of honor and said in a low voice: "Yun Sheng, do you know what the empty seat on the top is for me?"
Yun Sheng nodded: "How many people are looking forward to the Champions League trophy. Countless world-class coaches may not be able to get their hands on the highest honor in European football throughout their lives."
The prince stood up, walked to the honor cabinet, and looked at the empty seat: "But we are only one step away from winning the Champions League, and we are about to create a new history!"
Yun Sheng nodded: "Yes, it's just one step away. We have waited and prepared for this step for too long."
The prince turned his head to look at Yun Sheng, his eyes full of expectation: "Dude, can you tell me, can Monaco win this game?"
Yun Sheng pointed in the direction of the sofa, and the two sat down and chatted slowly.
"His Royal Highness, before the game starts, no one is sure to win the game. Maybe as long as I speak up and say that I can win the game, the balance of victory will tilt towards Inter Milan."
"why is that?"
"If I think I can win, then it proves that I am too arrogant. After all, the opponent is a giant in Serie A; if I say I am not sure, then it means that I have no confidence in the game. If I don't have confidence, can I still win?"
"Will it affect the result of the game once you say it? I heard you say this, why does it sound familiar, this is the legendary 'Schrödinger's Champions League'?"
"Hahaha, Your Royal Highness is really knowledgeable, that's probably what it means. I don't have any predictions about the outcome of this match, and I don't want to make any predictions. I just want to do my best and obey the destiny, that's all."
Seeing Yun Sheng's calm and peaceful appearance, Prince Albert felt much more at ease: "Tomorrow you are going to the Bernabéu. I have already sent people there in advance. You don't have to think about accommodation, food and transportation. You can just lead the team for training and games. No matter what troubles you have, my assistant will help you solve them."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Also, I'll deal with the matter here, and I'm going to go there early. I will definitely be there to cheer for you. Not only me, but officials from the Ligue [-] Football League will also be there to cheer for you."
"I will definitely present a wonderful game, and I will not let everyone down!"
Prince Albert nodded, very satisfied.He stood up, picked up a document from the desk, and handed it to Yun Sheng.
"You will lead the team away tomorrow, and I have another important matter to discuss with you!"
