Chapter 798 The Poisoning Incident and the Testimonial
In the 05-06 season of the previous life, there was a big unsolved case in the Premier League, and there was no background to solve the mystery from the beginning to the end.
In the last round of the league, Tottenham ranked fourth in the standings, ahead of Arsenal. If Tottenham can beat their opponents, then they will successfully win the Champions League and kick their long-time rival Arsenal into the UEFA Cup.
However, at Upton Park, Tottenham lost away to West Ham United, which made people feel sad. Perhaps Arsenal started to compete for four invincibles that season!
Although the result of the game itself has received a lot of attention, what is even more incredible is that the sad Tottenham coach Joel revealed an even more shocking news. Before the start of the game, 10 Tottenham players had food poisoning!
Although the game was postponed for a few hours after negotiation by the Premier League, in any case, the food poisoning incident before the game would more or less affect the physical strength of the players. 10 minutes before the end, West Ham striker Benayoun shot a fatal shot The bullet, Tottenham fell in response, missing the Champions League in grief and indignation.
After the game, the Tottenham poisoning incident caused an uproar, and there were many discussions. Some people said it was manipulated by gambling syndicates, some said it was the Gunners fans who volunteered to ensure that the team could get the Champions League place, and some said it was Tottenham to win emotion And self-directed and self-acted, some even said it was a conspiracy by the FA.
Although Tottenham called the police on the poisoning incident, the inefficiency and inaction of the British police kept the truth from being revealed. Tottenham really did not want to die.
In his previous life, this incident caused a lot of trouble. As a bystander, David once suspected that Arsenal was responsible, but in this life, he overturned his guess, because this time, Tottenham were also in the final round poisoned!
Unlike the previous life, Tottenham's results this season are not particularly eye-catching. Before the final round, they ranked sixth in the standings, and there is a 5-point gap with No.4 Arsenal. No matter what results they achieve, they will miss the Champions League and Europa League. As for Arsenal poisoning them, it is even more unreasonable!
But even under such circumstances, Tottenham still encountered a poisoning incident. Obviously, this can only be an accident.
Fortunately, it was just food poisoning, not being intentionally poisoned. The Tottenham players had a stomach ache. It didn't affect any other places. So Tottenham only reported the situation and didn't hold back. .
Tottenham, a North London team, can only be regarded as a mid-level team in the Premier League. If they perform well in the season, they may rank slightly higher. If they perform poorly in the season, they are unlikely to be in danger of relegation. It may be at least seven or eight years later!
But in the future, they may really become Notts County's rivals, especially after they attach importance to youth training. In the future, they will rely more and more on the Premier League, which is heavily invested. It is indeed worthy of their pride. Maybe at that time, I will not have the experience of rebirth and the grasp of the future, and the path I will take may be similar to that of Tottenham!
Some sympathy for Tottenham, but so far, David is not free enough to care about other teams.
The day before the FA Cup final against Liverpool, it was Alan Shearer's farewell match. While the team was heading to Wales, David and Soriano came to St. James' Park as guests.
The owners and chairmen of many clubs came to the scene, and everyone is still full of respect for this legendary England star.
St. James' Park was packed, and every fan was wearing a jersey with Alan Shearer's number on it, singing the song they made for Shearer, filled with sadness, and drifting away with the singing.
Before the game, Alan Shearer came to the box and shook hands with the guests and thanked them for coming. When Shearer shook hands, David only expressed his regret and didn't say much.
David really wanted to invite Shearer to serve as the management team in Notts County, but he knew that Shearer would not agree. As a legendary star of Newcastle, Shearer had been the image ambassador of Newcastle in his previous life after retiring. Will not work for other clubs.
In fact, although the game was Shearer's farewell game, due to a thigh muscle strain, Shearer was replaced after kicking off the game.
And until the last moment of the game, the exciting moment finally arrived. Ferdinand of Newcastle entered the Celtics penalty area and was brought down by the Celtics defender. The referee decisively awarded a penalty kick.
And the faces of the Celtic players were all smiles. Like the audience, they all hoped that one person would take the penalty kick, and that was Shearer.
Amid the cheers of the fans, Shearer re-dressed and took the penalty kick. Facing the Celtics goalkeeper, Shearer easily pushed and broke the goal. Shearer marked his career with a goal. On a perfect full stop.
The audience stood up and applauded to pay tribute to the heroes in their hearts. With deep emotion, Hiller burst into tears and applauded the audience.
This scene made David feel infinite emotions, maybe this is also part of the charm of football!
Of course, this penalty is a bit too far-fetched. The Celtics seem to have sent this penalty on purpose. Everything seems to be rehearsing according to the script, but no one cares about these things at this time.
When the game is over, a generation of heroes ends, and a new generation replaces the old ones. This is how history goes back and forth!
After the farewell game, David and Soriano did not stop and rushed to Wales to join the team overnight. When most other teams had disbanded, Notts County was one of the few teams in European football that was still fighting fiercely. club too.
In the two rounds of the semi-finals of the Champions League, although Liverpool caused a lot of trouble for Notts County, in the second round, Notts County showed the real strength of the king and beat Liverpool to nothing. It can only be a pity that they stopped in the semi-finals. It can be said that Liverpool's energy was completely lost in that game!
Originally, the strength of the Red Army was not as good as other giants. They relied more on Benitez's tactical command ability to gain a foothold in the top level of the Premier League. The gap made everything else irrelevant. Only then did they realize that Notts County was really invincible.
Confidence is gone, what else can Liverpool use to face Notts County?
Even though Benitez has all kinds of hills and valleys in his chest, there is nothing he can do!
