Thanks @Anners. Yes it was a long and tedious wait with a few saves in between. Don't really enjoy international management so glad it is done. Thanks as well @vikeologist. Finally got there.

2075 Challenge completed!!!! So at long last I have finished the challenge. After leaving Iran I couldn’t get another Asian job for another 7 years at which point I took the Iran job again in 2070. Like last time, I was good enough to make the QF but I lost to South Korea 2-1 which was right in line with expectations. Luckily the China job became available and they looked quite the powerhouse. Between then and the next Asian Cup in 2075 I won 2 East Asian Cups and made the QF of the World Cup so I was feeling confident. As expected, the group stage was pretty easy and won 3/3. Unfortunately first place was a stitch up and got me on the hard side of the draw. The round of 16 was against Qatar I used the occasion to rest my team as well as the last game of the group and won convincing with a 5-0 win. In the QF I drew South Korea and smashed them 3-0. It was a routine win and showed dominance from start to finish. In the SF it was Australia’s time and the first half was very edgy finishing 0-0. Early in the second half in the 50th minute Australia struck. I made a few alterations and I struck back with two goals in the 54th minute and 70th minute to gain the lead. A few scary moments ensued but I held on and got the win in an even game. One good thing about a hard draw was the final was against an easy team. The Saudi’s proved just this. It took awhile to get the break through but I did in the 43rd minute and from there the goals flowed and I finished up winning 7-0. So all in all, I finish the challenge in 2075. A bit longer than expected but the club side was finished in 2049 so it’s just these last two tournaments. Next time I’d like to tick off the continental international trophies earlier; especially the ones that only come every 4 years. It’s been great to try a whole bunch of different leagues and nations out. Haven’t played in a lot of these so it’s been cool to experience. eason Club Competition Position Notes & Achievements 2020/21 Uthongathi FC SA First Division 3rd (promoted via playoffs) 2021/22 Uthongathi FC SA Premier League 4th 2022/23 Kaiser Chiefs SA Premier League 1st.

2058-2063 So I entered the 2060 European championship feeling somewhat hopeful of success with Spain. I had made the nations league final and won all my qualifying games so I knew my squad was good enough against the big sides. Had put some great performances against some rivals. I started pretty poorly with a bore 1-1 draw against turkey. I then scraped past Israel 1-0 to basically secure qualification. A fully rotated side beat Sweden 3-0 to secure top spot. I kept a similar backup side to breeze past Denmark 2-0. In the QF I drew Holland and won a pretty comfortable 2-0 where the Dutch barely threatened. In the SF it was probably my best performance as I smashed France 3-0. I dominated from start to finish and didn’t really give them a sniff. The final saw me play against world number 2 Italy. I didn’t start well and Italy were pretty dominant against me. Luckily against the run of play my star CAM assisted my star striker to score with my first chance. After this I played pretty well before adding a second in the second half. I was completely gassed but managed to hold on and lift the trophy. Overall I was very happy with the tournament, not conceding from open play is a fantastic effort. With this ticked off, I need just the one trophy: the Asian cup. After this I holidayed through to the 2062 WC. None of the big Asian sides had a change of manager but the Iran job was available so I thought I’d run the gauntlet on this and hope for a miracle. Iran's squad was pretty average but after some friendlies it was clear I was better than the lower ranked sides. I breezed through the group stage winning all 3 games to book a second round spot against Vietnam. I proceeded to beat them 1-0 with a late worldie. Up next was Saudi Arabia; I started well taking the lead 30 minutes in before they scored a long range strike in the 45th minute to equalise. I was the better team in the game until my player got sent off in ET and from there I held on until pens which I lost 4-3. This felt like a missed opportunity as Saudi Arabia really weren't great. Amazingly enough they went on to win the tournament which is even more disappointing to see. So I resigned after the tournament and am holidaying to the East Asian Cup, WC and Asian Cup trying to get a job at any of the big Asian sides. I am now in 2067 and it is not looking good but fingers crossed I can get one soon.

2048-2056 So I haven’t posted on here for awhile but I’ve come back to hopefully finish this save. I left after finishing the club side of the save and needing the European Championship and Asian Cup.I took over the French national team with World Cup in 2054. In the leadup I won the nations league for the first time. Unfortunately the World Cup was a bust, I lost in the QF and got sacked.Luckily the Australian job came available after they had a horrible WC. I was feeling confident heading into the Asian Cup in 2055. Unfortunately I lost to South Korea in the SF 2-1. That was a heart breaker as I dominated the game and then got sacked post tournament.I holidayed through to the next works cup to see what teams would be available. I took over Portugal to have a crack at the 2056 European Championship. In the leadup, the Nations League ended in a group stage knockout. The qualifiers were easy enough with 10/10 wins.I had a fairly challenging group with France, former World Champions Bulgaria and XX. I started with a strong 3-0 win over Bulgaria and 1-0 over France meaning I qualified with a game to spare. A fully rested side won 4-0 against Romania to top the group. I got a stitch up of a draw, drawing England the second rank side. I put in a cracker of a performance and won comfortably 2-0. This is as good as I got as I didn’t turn up in the QF against Northern Ireland where I won 3-2 needing a 118th minute ET win. I had the home nation Scotland in the SF and I just didn’t get going and lost 3-0. This one hurts as I really should’ve beat Scotland and the draw bad opened up so I would’ve had Belgium in the final. Portugal wanted me to stay in but I didn’t want to do a full 4 year cycle so I resigned and will see if any jobs come up after the next WC and try again.I’m gonna stick out this save now until I either get it done or go bust.
