Guus Hiddink emerged from a farewell post-match break-dancing party in the Wembley dressing room with his players and owner Roman Abramovich to admit he was "sad but satisfied" after Chelsea had beaten Everton 2-1 in the 128th FA Cup final.
It was Hiddink's final match after three and a half months in charge at Stamford Bridge.
Now he will return to coach Russia after visiting his ageing father on Sunday and telling him how he won the FA Cup.
Hiddink said: "There were some extra-normal circumstances in the dressing room. We have a multi-cultural squad and we had a nice dance party with the staff.
"Roman danced with us. He enjoyed it. He was in the middle of the party. He is not a man of many words but there were some beautiful pictures.
"It was emotional in the dressing room. I got my players together and thanked them in an emotional way for how we have worked together."
