At this time, the DJ on the scene said in a very solemn voice: "Ladies and gentlemen! Please be quiet! The award ceremony of the National High School Football Championship will begin soon!"

“Ahhhh!”

“We are the champions!”

"Long live the stag steel horn!"

"Long Live Chinese Daddy!"

"Gu Ran can't defeat me!"

The fans cheered wildly for a while before they calmed down with satisfaction.

After the scene was almost quiet, the DJ continued: "First of all, let us welcome Mr. Bernstein, the chairman of the English Football Association, with warm applause!"

There was both applause and booing at the Millennium Stadium.

Most British fans can hardly be said to be satisfied with the English Football Association.

The English Football Association has chaotic management, with obvious problems such as abuse of power, cumbersome procedures, and slow response to incidents. Although the English Football Association is the first specialized agency for modern football, over the past few hundred years it has become a reserve of power and has even begun to affect the sport and healthy development of football in the UK.

Over the years, the English Football Association has been reaping the benefits, investing insufficiently in the development of professional and youth football, and lacking effective policies and measures, which has led to a decline in the overall strength of British football.

Of course...British fans have never seen the power of the Chinese Football Association...

This time, the fans of Southampton and Cardiff gave Bernstein face and did not boo too much.

After all, it was up to Bernstein to present the trophy.

Bernstein, dressed in a suit and tie, walked to the center of the stadium with a smile and waved to the fans in the stands, as if these fans really loved him.

Bernstein began his speech: "Dear friends, I am very happy to present this year's talent trophy. The Football Association has always attached great importance to the development of young people in football. We have been holding this competition for nearly a hundred years. Our achievements are obvious to all: this amateur competition not only enriches the lives of young people, but also better shapes their strong physique, tenacious fighting attitude and lofty competitive spirit. At the same time, it also provides a large number of talents for our British professional league."

"Today's game was great. Both teams played to their strengths. I would like to ask everyone to join me in applauding the two teams for their outstanding performances!"

Bernstein is indeed an old bureaucrat, his level of impromptu speaking is very high.

Under his leadership, there was a wave of applause from the audience without any booing.

To be honest, the Missionaries did play well in this game, but the Bucks Steelers had Gu Ran who was like a god from heaven.

Bernstein did not steal the limelight from the protagonists. He ended his award speech after saying a few simple words.

As the grand ceremony music sounded, the award ceremony officially began! The on-site DJ announced that the first award to be presented was the "Golden Glove" Best Goalkeeper Award.

The best goalkeeper award will only select the best performing goalkeeper from the top four teams.

No matter how well other goalkeepers perform or how few goals they concede, it will be useless if their team cannot make it into the top four.

The favorites for the Best Goalkeeper Award should have been the goalkeeper of the Golden Fleece Team and the goalkeeper of the Missionary Team. Before this final, both of them had conceded relatively few goals. However, the Golden Fleece Team failed to make the final, and the goalkeeper of the Missionary Team was scored 4 goals by Gu Ran in today's final.

The goalkeeper of the Missionary Team not only "gifted" Gu Ran a string of four goals, but also blocked two of the goals directly without even a save reaction, with zero on-the-spot reaction!

With such performance, he definitely won't win the Gold Glove.

Therefore, this year's "Golden Glove" is going to be an upset -

The DJ on the scene announced loudly: "The winner of this year's Best Goalkeeper Award is: Bucks Steelhorns goalkeeper Adlibek Canning!"

There was an excited cheer at the Millennium Stadium!

The players of the Bucks Steelhorns also hugged the Tyrannosaurus Rex excitedly!

Minato and the others were especially excited, they grabbed the Tyrannosaurus Rex's neck and shook it hard.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex was shaken to his core...

He almost forgot that his real name was Adlibeck Canning! The National Championship Gold Glove... this was something he never dared to dream of!

With this national award, he can definitely join a professional club in the English Premier League! Even if he is not a first-team goalkeeper, he can still be a starting goalkeeper in the reserve team!

Tyrannosaurus Rex was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He hugged Gu Ran tightly before going on stage to receive the award.

Tyrannosaurus Rex knew very well that if Gu Ran had not led the Bucks Steel Horns team through all the obstacles, he would have had no chance of touching the trophy.

Gu Ran also happily patted the Tyrannosaurus Rex on the cheek to express his congratulations!

Amid the cheers of the fans, the Tyrannosaurus Rex with an X-shaped bandage on his nose walked up to the podium excitedly and proudly and received the Golden Gloves trophy from Bernstein.

The trophy is a transparent trophy made of artificial crystal with a pair of goalkeeper gloves engraved on it.

Although it is called the "Golden Glove" award, it has nothing to do with gold.

On the base of the trophy, the name of Tyrannosaurus Rex and the time of winning the award are also engraved.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex happily kissed the Golden Gloves trophy. He didn't care even though his nose was hurt by the trophy.

Although Tyrannosaurus Rex's previous performance had been poor, the three consecutive saves at the critical moment of the last game were indeed very impressive.

His iron-blooded performance deserves this trophy!

The fans applauded and cheered for the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex happily walked down the podium holding his own trophy.

After the Golden Glove Award is presented, the next big thing is the "Golden Boot" best scorer award.

There was no doubt about this award! The DJ announced loudly: "Now, let's give the warmest applause to welcome this year's Golden Boot winner - Bucks Steelhorns fullback, Gu Ran!"

Wow——

The Millennium Stadium was filled with thunderous applause, and the cheers of the fans were overwhelming, as fierce as a tsunami! The players of the Bucks Steelhorns high-fived and hugged Gu Ran to celebrate!

Gu Ran himself could not hide his excitement - as a Chinese, he stood on the podium of the British high school national competition and won the best scorer! What else could be more proud than this? While being extremely happy, Gu Ran also felt a little regretful: It's a pity that no one in China knows of my existence. It would be great if an international student could shoot a video and broadcast it live...

Gu Ran adjusted his Bucks Steel Horns school team uniform, waved, and walked up to the podium.

The Bucks Steelhorns' school team uniforms have not yet had golden stars embroidered on them, but by the time of the next national competition, the new school team uniforms and jerseys will have golden stars representing the championship embroidered on them.

And this is all thanks to Gu Ran! English Football Association Chairman Bernstein took a crystal trophy in the shape of a football boot from the etiquette lady, walked to Gu Ran with a smile, and handed it to Gu Ran with both hands.

Gu Ran wanted to take it, but Bernstein did not let go immediately. Instead, he smiled and waited for the reporters to take pictures.

Hundreds of media reporters at the Millennium Stadium took pictures of Bernstein and Gu Ran.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex in the audience: ? ?

Why didn’t I have this link just now?

After taking a group photo, Bernstein officially handed the trophy engraved with Gu Ran's name to Gu Ran.

Bernstein also took the initiative to extend his hand to shake hands with Gu Ran and waited for the reporter to take pictures again.

The media reporters started to click again.

The flash was so bright that Gu Ran could hardly open his eyes, and the smile on his face became stiff and a little sour.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex in the audience: …

Why didn't I get this part? Did I get a fake award? After taking another photo, Bernstein still held Gu Ran's hand tightly and said with a smile: "Gu, congratulations, you played really well today, I am very much looking forward to your performance in the Premier League."

Gu Ran: ??? Are you stupid, old man?

I'm going to play in the English League One next season! Gu Ran didn't think much about it, just smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chairman."

Gu Ran took the opportunity to pull his hand back and raised the Crystal Golden Boot Award trophy with both hands! The Millennium Stadium instantly exploded! "Gu Ran! Gu Ran! Gu Ran!"

"Chinese Dad! Chinese Dad! Chinese Dad!"

"Gu Ran! Let's have a baby tonight!"

"Gu Ran! I love you! I love you!"

"Although I am a man, I love you too!"

Southampton fans cheered wildly, and some extreme female fans even lifted up their skirts towards Gu Ran, expressing their love in this irrational way.

Gu Ran...can't see clearly!

At this moment, Lawler and Emenalo in the main stand also stood up and applauded Gu Ran.

The two of them were secretly competing with each other, as if Gu Ran would follow whoever clapped the loudest.

Gu Ran’s Golden Boot Award is absolutely well-deserved!

More than half of Gu Ran's goals have reached the level of professional leagues, with XG value = below 0.5, and the remaining small half have even surpassed the level of English League One.

Especially the last long-range shot that sealed the victory, it was simply a shot from heaven. Even in the Premier League or the Champions League, it would be a god-level goal that is absolutely impossible to save.

The most shocking thing was that Gu Ran's starting position on the field was actually the left back! This was no longer a defender with a knife, but a defender with a gun! A rear-positioned B2B striker!

Gu Ran did the work of two people, and did both jobs very well.

Why can a weak team like the Bucks win? It is because the Bucks are equivalent to 12 people playing on the field.

Such a terrifying Gu Ran, even if he is standing in his own restricted area, will make the people in the opposite restricted area scalp numb!

As long as Gu Ran is on the court, no matter where he stands, he is a huge threat.

Of course, for now, Gu Ran’s outstanding performance is limited to amateur competitions among high school students.

The National High School Competition is undoubtedly like a novice village for Gu Ran.

The English League One a month later was Gu Ran’s real beginning.

The DJ on the scene said in an excited tone: "Let's cheer three times for the top scorer Gu Ran again!"

"Gu Ran——"

"Chinese dad!"

"Gu Ran——"

"Chinese dad!"

"Gu Ran!!!"

“Chinese Dad!!!”

The atmosphere at the scene reached its peak! Every fan from Southampton cheered passionately.

This shocking scene filled Olin's eyes with envy, jealousy and... regret.

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Gu Ran walked down the podium holding the Golden Boot trophy.

The cheers from the stands continued.

Even the DJ on the scene couldn't help but sigh that Gu Ran was so popular.

The next awards to be presented are the gold and silver medals.

First to step onto the podium was the silver medalist of this national competition - the runner-up Missionary team.

The players of the Missionary Team walked up to the podium one by one with their heads down, and there was no smile on any of their faces.

For a team that aspires to win its first three consecutive championships in history, this silver medal is a shame of failure.

The award presenter, Bernstein, was also experienced. He did not hang the silver medals around the missionary players' necks, but perfunctorily handed them directly into their hands.

This also avoided embarrassment for the missionary team.

The silver medal was awarded faster than frying an egg.

The players of the missionary team all held the silver medals in their hands and stood silently on the podium.

The media reporters in the audience were snapping photos, and one of them, a blonde female reporter from Southampton, even asked them to smile.

This is simply a public execution...

Everyone in the audience was very happy except the Missionaries team who won the silver medal and some Westminster fans who did not leave early.

After finally taking the photo, the players of the Missionary Team, led by their captain McEachran, left the podium in dejection.

They didn't even wait for the gold medal and genius cup awards to be presented, and walked straight back to the player tunnel.

At this time, the grand ceremonial music once again resounded throughout the Millennium Stadium.

The DJ on the scene shouted in an excited and loud voice: "Dear friends! Now, let us give the warmest applause to the champion team of this national competition - the Southampton High School Bucks Steelhorns to come on stage to receive the award!"

"Ahhhhhhhh!"

Southampton fans were jumping and cheering crazily in the stands! This was a miracle moment for Southampton High School! Everyone was cheering for the school team players at the top of their lungs!

All the players of the Bucks Steelhorns team, led by Gu Ran, walked up to the podium with their heads held high!

Including players who had been on the bench before, as well as players who had never been on the bench, and even players who were injured and received red cards, they all followed Gu Ran and stepped onto the podium! Every player was so excited that they could hardly control themselves! Coach Carter, standing in the audience, was already in tears! After creating a series of impossible miracles, his little guys finally stood at the pinnacle of their dreams!

Although Carter could not go on stage to receive the award, his dream has become a reality! The award presenter Bernstein opened his arms and hugged Gu Ran affectionately, "Congratulations again, Gu! Congratulations to your team! I hope you get better and better!"

Gu Ran said with genuine gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Chairman! I will keep moving forward."

Bernstein smiled and personally hung the gold medal around Gu Ran's neck, then hugged Gu Ran and faced the cameras of the media reporters.

The media reporters started taking pictures crazily again.

Gu Ran secretly complained in his heart: This old man... is he a photo-taking maniac?

After shooting for two and a half minutes, Bernstein finally "let go" of Gu Ran and walked up to the second Bucks Steelhorns player.

Standing behind Gu Ran was the team leader, Mianbao.

Because he was sent off in this game and had a shoulder injury, Gu Ran, who was wearing the captain's armband, ranked first, and he willingly ranked second.

Mianbao's performance today was also very tough. His shoulder injury is not too serious and he will recover after a month of rest.

His performance was good enough to be selected by a League Two team and start from the League Two reserve team.

This is a great start for bread!

After all, even a famous U17 international like McEachran could only start with a League Two team.

——Of course, McEachran will be the absolute core player in the English League Two team.

Bernstein simply shook hands with Bread, then hung the gold medal around Bread's neck, without taking a photo with him.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex in third place couldn't help but secretly look forward to it: It's my turn! I will definitely be photographed this time, right? Bread was not photographed because he got a red card, but I am different. I have won the Golden Glove Award!

Bernstein simply shook hands with the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and then hung the gold medal around its neck... No photo was taken! The muscles on the Tyrannosaurus Rex's face twitched, and the wound on the bridge of its nose began to ache.

Fortunately...all the subsequent Milwaukee Steelers players were unable to take a photo with Bernstein.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex felt much better.

...Can't compare with Gu Ran! After Bernstein awarded all the gold medals, the Millennium Stadium was once again filled with cheers.

The Milwaukee Bucks have never been a strong team, but they trust and support each other. Their execution on the court and their willpower to never compromise or give up are definitely the strongest among all high school teams!

After the gold medals were awarded, the most grand moment finally arrived! Four staff members escorted the genius trophy to the podium with solemn music! The ears on both sides of the trophy have been replaced with red and white ribbons that symbolize the characteristics of Southampton High School! This is the first national championship trophy in the history of Southampton High School! Before this, their best result was more than 20 years ago, when Carter was a player and reached the quarterfinals!

Now, the Bucks Steelhorns, as an absolute dark horse team, fought hard all the way and defeated strong enemies! They got this genius trophy!

Bernstein personally handed the silver-plated genius trophy to Gu Ran.

As usual, the reporters in the audience frantically pressed the shutter to record this exciting moment! Then, Gu Ran held up the trophy with both hands and showed it to all the fans!

At this moment, the soundtrack of We Are The Champions sounded again!

The atmosphere on the scene reached its peak! The entire Millennium Stadium went crazy!

The feeling of winning the championship is incomparable! Gu Ran felt that his adrenaline and dopamine were exploding and he couldn't stop! Gu Ran held the genius trophy and excitedly ran from the north stand to the west stand, and then ran from the west stand back to the north stand.

The other Bucks Steelhorns players followed Gu Ran.

The fans in the stands stretched out their arms to touch the genius trophy from a distance! It was not until Gu Ran had his fill that he handed the trophy to the other Bucks Steel Horns players.

The players of the Bucks Steelhorns took turns to hold up the trophy and interacted passionately with the crazy fans! This is the reward of their youth! This is the pride of Southampton High School! This is the most inspiring football game story that the fans have ever witnessed! At this time, the on-site DJ announced that the award ceremony was over and asked the fans to leave.

But the atmosphere at the scene was still hot! No fan wanted to leave at this exciting moment!

Gu Ran turned around and saw Coach Carter sitting alone on the bench.

Coach Carter covered his face and cried alone...
