Arda Turan first Champions League win as coach

That final whistle between Shakhtar Donetsk and AEK Athens in the Champions League was only half the story. What came after it is what got me. Arda Turan stepped onto the field to be with his squad, and whatever composure he was trying to keep just evaporated. He wept through the celebration. First Champions League win as a head coach will do that to you. He's 39. The biggest result of his coaching run so far, and honestly the context makes it hit harder. Last season he had his team knocking on the door of a Conference League final. Before that, he'd walked away from playing four years back, and here he is already building something real on the touchline. WE RESPECT YOU, LEGEND.
