Frank Lampard expressed his pride and emotion after guiding Coventry to Premier League promotion, stating it's one of the highlights of his illustrious career. Coventry secured their spot in the top flight after a late equalizer against Blackburn, marking their first promotion in 25 years.
Lampard believes this achievement rivals his past successes as a player, including winning Premier League titles and the Champions League. He praised his team's hard work and dedication, saying they've 'raised their game' through sheer effort. The former England international was visibly moved during the post-match interview, reflecting on the club's history and the fans' unwavering support.
Coventry's promotion is a significant milestone, considering they were 17th in the league just 15 months ago. Lampard credits his team's resilience and consistency for their success, which has earned them a well-deserved spot in the Premier League with three matches to spare.
