Our first Champions League Winner! <--Back
pic pic

Finally, we have our first proud winner in our first Champions League!
Congratulations to Ringnesklanen!



In the semi-finals, Ringnesklanen from the International League, devastated morphers from Romania, with a crushing 6-1 win.
Also, Deportivo Quito secured a solid 4-2 win over Reservoir Dogs from Denmark.

The ManagerLeague Stadium was packed with 100.000 spectators for the finals, and everything was set for a game between two giants.

The first goal in the finals came after just 10 minutes, and Ringnesklanen went 1-0 into the lead after a magnificent corner.
However, it took Deportivo Quito only 4 minutes to place the equalizer into the net.
Ringesklanen didn't seem to spend time to cry over the spilt milt, and reclaimed the lead in the 36th minute, securing that important 2-1 lead before half-time.
Deportivo Quito tried changing formation to 4-3-3, tried to up their pressure, but after 75 minutes, Ringnesklanen placed the final nail in the coffin (3-1) in an attack that came out of nowhere.

So the trophy, the only one of this kind so far, has gone to Ringnesklanen, for this outstanding achivement to actually win the Champions League.

We now have the honor of sending a real brass trophy to the manager of Ringnesklanen, with the inscription "Champions League Season 35", and we hope it will earn it's rightful place in his home.
Here are a few pictures.

On a side-note, I can also tell you all that every single League Champion and League Cup Champion will get a signed diploma in the mailbox (real snail-mail, not e-mail), provided they have filled in their complete name and address in the My Accounts page on the portal.

Congratulations to Ringnesklanen (TEAM: 4481), and also Deportivo Quito (TEAM: 7536), Reservoir Dogs (TEAM: 12561) and morphers (TEAM: 17032)!


PS: Sorry it took so long to post this, it was a series of unfortunate events that came in the way

Hmmm, just when I sell my team you start with diplomas. All against Mycroft I guess ^^

By : AnimalWell done to Tore!   01:34 09/05 2008
pictureCongrats Tore, Well deserved and a worthy winner!
Imagine how I feel then Mycroft. 2 International League titles back to back, I get nothing. Then Runner-Up in the Champions League and also... You guessed it, Nothing. Yet some team can win a league with Inactive managers like in Brazil, and they walk away with a diploma??
2nd out of over 36,000 managers in the Champions League, and I get less than a guy who wins the Brazilian League Cup?? Hardly much of an incentive to bother my ass next season.

pictureI see no problem with the new additions. It will just give us all more of an incentive to win our leagues and cups. So the real cup and diploma's are more than welcome.
