But Mr. Winter is the head coach, he doesn't have a jersey to exchange.
"No, Mr. Winter, I've come to celebrate." Lu Yang felt a bit awkward, offering you some encouragement to help you out of a predicament is something a son-in-law should do… oh no, a friend should do.
But the match isn't over yet, as an opposing player, you still have to do what should be done after scoring a goal.
"Uh… you've scored a goal, why are you celebrating with me, your coach is over there." Mr. Winter was speechless.
"As everyone knows, I generally don't celebrate with my own people." Lu Yang said, taking off his shirt, "Today, I was bullied by the Arsenal players for the entire match and taunted by the Arsenal fans for an entire game, venting a bit is understandable, right?"
Mr. Winter could not say F*ck.
It's very reasonable.
So next, Lu Yang, in front of Mr. Winter, and facing countless Arsenal fans, displayed his blue and white San Remo jersey.
He held up his jersey and slowly walked around, showing it to the entire stadium.
A 360-degree view, no dead angles.
On the jersey, the big "Lu" seemed to be telling Arsenal fans, weren't you asking who Lu Yang is?
This… is Lu Yang!
Rumble!
The San Remo fans, who were not many in the stadium, went crazy.
"LU!"
"LU!"
"LU!"
They chanted in unison, their voices echoing to the sky, shaking the entire Stockholm!
And countless Arsenal fans were all speechless at this moment.
Hat-trick!
Three goals, one assist!
Caused three yellow cards!
Helped San Remo survive the toughest final ten minutes!
This…
What else could the Arsenal fans say?
Besides admitting Lu Yang's awesomeness, they really couldn't say anything else.
But the pride of a giant club didn't allow them to say such things at this moment.
"Seems like… Mr. Winter's eye is as keen as ever?" An Arsenal fan spoke up.
"Yeah… if only, Lu Yang almost became our player."
"If, instead of signing Olic, we brought in Lu Yang and Morici this summer…"
"Olic is actually not bad."
"But Lu Yang is indeed more…"
"It seems, we became… just a backdrop?"
"First time in the Europa League and they win the championship, and as a secondary league team, they lift the trophy, I think we've become just a backdrop!"
"An underdog miracle happened, the San Remo miracle came from Italy to Europe."
"Italy's teams are amazing this year!"
"This San Remo is indeed strong. I even suspect that if we swapped them with AC Milan, they might even win the Champions League this year!"
"Possible! They are a team that has beaten AC Milan in the Italian Cup finals for two consecutive years."
"Damn! We finally made it to the UEFA Europa League, yet we couldn't even touch the cup, it's simply embarrassing!"
"We'll battle again in the Champions League next year, hope we meet San Remo then and teach them a lesson!"
"Need to wait for next year? As soon as the summer window opens, we'll buy Lu Yang!"
"Damn club owner, invest money! Forget about Enriquez, Mancini, Zidane, Lima, Moreira, Mateo, just get Lu Yang! This kid is bound to be a super star in the future!"
"Future? He already is! He defeated our 'invincible Arsenal'!"
After Lu Yang's respectful shirt-off celebration, displaying his jersey, he naturally received a yellow card award from the main referee.
Ten seconds later, three whistles sounded, and the match officially ended.
San Remo, officially ascended to the top of Europe!
At this moment, the light of San Remo shines on the world!
Countless media rushed for coverage, crafting articles in advance to capture the first wave of high engagement.
"The New King is Crowned! San Remo Creates a Sixty-Year New Record in the Europa League!"
"First Entry and Takes the Crown! This Dark Horse Truly Went All the Way!"
"I Announce, the San Remo Miracle Descends on Europe!"
"A King is Born! Lu Yang Creates the First Hat-trick in a UEFA Europa League Final!"
"Worthy of the Golden Boy! The Youngest Hat-trick in European Competition Final History, 18 Years and 316 Days!"
"Record-breaking Golden Boot! Twenty Goals in the Europa League, Efficiency King!"
"Who is Lu! Lu Yang's Dominant Jersey Celebration Silences Arsenal Fans!"
"The New UEFA Europa League Champion! A Dimensional Reduction Strike from Italian Football, Serie B Manufacturing!"
"Giant Killer! Lu Yang Slays Arsenal Again! Another Hat-trick! Making One Dream of Two Years Ago!"
"Two years later, Arsenal is still the same Arsenal, and Lu Yang is still the same Lu Yang! Arsenal's inescapable fate is to be defeated by Lu Yang!"
Many people who aren't very concerned about football couldn't help themselves after seeing these headlines.
Human beings naturally love to watch excitement and novelty.
If it were Arsenal defeating San Remo, then those not following Arsenal or the UEFA Europa League would never click in to see.
But now it's San Remo defeating Arsenal, it's the Italian San Remo miracle defeating Arsenal.
And San Remo's player, Lu Yang, even set a record by creating the first UEFA Europa League Final hat-trick!
In all of European competitions, including both Europa League and Champions League Finals, there have only been four hat-tricks, Lu Yang this time, is the fifth!
This is one of the highest prestige matches in the world, these three goals will become an honor for Lu Yang's lifetime.
...
Soon, the podium was set up.
The UEFA president, Alexander Jeffery, personally appeared on the award stage to present the runners-up medals to the entire Arsenal team.
Most Arsenal players looked very dejected, this was the only heavyweight championship trophy they had a chance to win in recent years, and the opponents weren't very strong, yet they just missed it.
