Chapter 375 If you are afraid, you will lose your whole life!

The derby in the same city has always been the most exciting game for fans.

There are many derby games in England, some of which are between championship rivals, and some are due to historical conflicts between each other. In fact, the latter game is often more popular than the former, and even causes a fan riot.

Many people call the game between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur the North London Derby, but no one knows that Arsenal is not from North London. They moved north from Woolwich in South London to Highbury Stadium in 1913, which once caused protests from London teams on the north bank of the Thames such as Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Fulham.

As a North London team, Tottenham Hotspur is undoubtedly the biggest victim after Arsenal moved north, because Highbury Stadium is located in the middle of White Hart Lane Stadium and the center of London, which almost isolates Tottenham Hotspur outside London.

After that, every game between the two teams in North London would trigger hostility between the two sides, but what really caused the two sides to hate each other for a century was the quota issue of the expansion of the English League in 1919.

At that time, Chelsea ranked second from the bottom and Tottenham Hotspur ranked last. According to the regulations, Chelsea was allowed to stay in the English League, while Tottenham Hotspur had to compete with Barnsley, the third place in the English League at that time, for the last place. But what was shocking was that Arsenal, which ranked fifth in the English League at that time, did not have the qualification for promotion, but was considered by the English Football Association to have made outstanding contributions, and directly squeezed out Tottenham Hotspur and Barnsley and was promoted to the English League.

In this way, Tottenham Hotspur was relegated to the English League, and Arsenal took its place.

This incident caused a great uproar in the English football world at that time. Everyone knew that this was a deal between the Arsenal chairman and the English Football Association, but no one could produce strong evidence, so in the end, this powerless anger was transformed into the fighting spirit to kill the opponent on the court, and Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal became a century-old feud that could not tolerate fire and water.

It is shameful to say that since 1999, Tottenham Hotspur has never defeated Arsenal again. The Gunners have always maintained an unbeaten record in the North London Derby. No matter how well Tottenham Hotspur performs, Arsenal can always suppress their mortal enemies, which makes Tottenham Hotspur fans angry and helpless.

This summer, Ye Qiu took over Tottenham Hotspur. All Tottenham Hotspur fans are hoping that Ye Qiu can bring earth-shaking changes to the team. They all know very well that it is impossible to lead a team to glory in a short period of time by relying on one person's strength, but they also hope that the team can wipe out the shame of the past few years in the North London Derby.

Tottenham's performance has improved significantly recently. First, they defeated Wigan, and then won Middlesbrough 3:0 at home, and the ranking jumped directly to 10th place. The two consecutive victories also made Tottenham feel confident, especially the fans of Tottenham, who hoped that the team could avenge their previous defeat at the Emirates Stadium.

Ye Qiu also said in an interview with the media before the game that Tottenham would go all out at the Emirates Stadium and strive to break the vicious circle of Tottenham's failure to win against Arsenal in the past few years, and he also hoped that the team could rely on this North London derby to play their confidence and get out of the trough.

But in fact, Ye Qiu's promise was only half fulfilled!

In the Emirates Stadium, Tottenham performed the best. This time, even Yaya Toure, who started, played very well. Tottenham played very well in offense and defense, but still lost the game!

When the game reached the 20th minute, after Tottenham Hotspur pressed forward, Kolo Toure intercepted the ball and made a long pass. Adebayo was in a vague offside position, but the referee and the linesman did not give a penalty, but signaled the game to continue, which made Tottenham Hotspur, who had stopped, have no time to stop Adebayo.

Adebayo, who had not scored a goal so far this season and was under suspicion, finally scored a goal!

While the referee Boll was celebrating the goal up and down at Arsenal, he walked to the sidelines and explained to Ye Qiu who was shouting at him to protest. He said that he and the linesman had the same opinion and believed that Adebayo was indeed not offside.

But Ye Qiu told him that the problem of their position and perspective, from the slow motion of the big screen, this was indeed an offside, but Boll obviously could not accept this. After seeing Ye Qiu turn around and leave, he did not say much, but continued to go back to the court to enforce the game.

But in the second half, Arsenal counterattacked again. Rosicky was tripped by Mascherano in the penalty area, and referee Boll awarded a penalty again. No matter how Tottenham protested, he felt that the penalty was beyond doubt.

But Mascherano felt very wronged, thinking that he did not touch Rosicky at all. He did not understand why Rosicky fell to the ground. This could only be explained by the Czech deliberately faking a fall to get a penalty, but Boll was obviously unwilling to accept this.

It was these two controversial penalties that Arsenal defeated Tottenham 2:0 at home, and Mascherano was sent off the court with a red card in the next game because of two yellow cards, which almost caused a conflict between the players of the two teams on the court, but in the end Tottenham could not save the defeat.

Ye Qiu refused to admit defeat at the post-match press conference. He described Arsenal's victory as a victory for thieves and liars. He believed that Rosicky's diving completely fooled everyone, including referee Boll.

Wenger refused to respond to the question of whether Rosicky dived. He said that he did not see it clearly at the time, but he believed in his players, and Mascherano made a tackle when Rosicky got the ball and was about to break through. Action itself represents an attitude.

Ye Qiu counterattacked on the spot, "Perhaps in Mr. Wenger's opinion, in the future, when all defensive players see Arsenal players trying to break through with the ball, we should try to stay as far away as possible and try to avoid getting close to them, otherwise they will attack them at any time." He will fall to the ground anywhere. I wonder if Arsenal can play the best football in this case?"

Whether the referee was biased or not, Ye Qiu felt it was difficult to say. The first goal was indeed due to Kolo Toure's quick long pass. Neither the referee nor the linesman were in a very good position. For this reason, Boll made the penalty and in the middle. During the break, he explained this to Ye Qiu. He was not sure whether his penalty was correct, but he could only do this.

After all, the referee is also a human being, and as a human being he is bound to make mistakes.

As for the penalty kick awarded for the second goal, you have to ask Rosicky.

Of course, any professional player, no matter who he is, will habitually fall to the ground when the ball is intercepted in the opponent's penalty area. This has become a very iconic action, and if the referee is not confused If so, he will be given a yellow card warning, thinking that he is diving, but he may also confuse the referee and get a penalty kick.

Considering this, Ye Qiu decided to appeal, but did not point the finger at the referee.

But Tottenham Hotspur fans quit!

"Get out of White Hart Lane, you losers!"

With a roar from the crowd, a small stone was seen hitting the Tottenham Hotspur bus with a bang.

The bus was filled with Tottenham Hotspur first-team players and coaching staff, of course Ye Qiu was indispensable, and everyone was startled by the rocks flying out of the crowd.

After the game, the team returned to the bus and was about to leave the Emirates Stadium. There were many extreme Tottenham Hotspur fans blocking the way out of the team bus. Many people kept surrounding the bus. They cursed and slapped the car body and the car windows, venting their dissatisfaction with the team's loss to Arsenal and their current ranking.

"We spent 100 million, but we bought a bunch of trash like you, get out!"

"Get out! Get out of White Hart Lane! Get out of London!!"

Through the glass window of the team bus, what you can see are faces that are ferocious with anger. There are white people and black people in this group, but everyone is obviously distorted and crazy because of anger.

The place where the small stone had just hit was full of cracks. Fannie and others who were sitting nearby quickly got out of their seats. At this moment, everyone in the car was worried about what would happen if this group of fans rushed into the car. matter?

Countless Arsenal fans and Tottenham Hotspur fans gathered outside the crowd, and they all chose to watch. The Arsenal fans, who accounted for the absolute majority, were even more gloating about the excitement. After all, they wanted Tottenham Hotspur to be like this. Finish the enemy as early as possible and save yourself a lot of trouble.

The police wanted to maintain order at the scene, but they obviously didn't have enough manpower. They were desperately asking for support. Someone in the crowd took out a large photo with a portrait of Ye Qiu on it, but it was marked with a big, shocking red cross. , and a middle finger from bottom to top, which is obviously venting dissatisfaction with the head coach and club chairman.

There were many reporters at the scene, but they were all filming this once-in-a-lifetime scene. Many people said that Tottenham Hotspur would be Ye Qiu's Waterloo, but in fact, this team's performance this season is really good. It's so bad that it has fallen back to 11th place, and it has lost games like the North London Derby, and even Tottenham Hotspur fans rebelled.

Is there any topic in the world that is more newsworthy than celebrities in trouble?

Bang~ Another small stone from nowhere hit the glass of the team bus.

Bang~ Another piece, this time hitting the top.

Pa~pa~pa~

Everyone in the car trembled with the sound of each small stone concentrating on the car. Many people even took out their mobile phones in panic to call the police, but the lines were basically busy.

Everyone is praying, praying for the police to come quickly and separate this group of fans who are not sure whether they have been drinking.

The Emirates Stadium, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, once the game ended, fans poured out like a tide. The entrances and exits of the major passages were crowded with people. In addition, there was a lot of excitement here, and they were even more crowded in circles. The water is blocked.

Ye Qiu felt the frightened atmosphere in the car. He could understand the mood of the players at this moment, so he stood up directly, "You all sit in the car and don't move. Johnson, open the front door!"

Everyone was frightened by Ye Qiu's actions. Mauro Tassotti and Roland immediately stood up and held Ye Qiu's hand.

"Don't mess around, the police will be here soon!"

"Yeah, don't go down, they are all obviously drunk and have completely lost their minds!"

There is such a group of people after almost every Premier League game, because the high unemployment rate in the UK in recent years has led to a hot football market, but it has also caused a lot of social security problems, one of which is the large number of football hooligans and drunken troublemakers.

If you have studied English football carefully, you will definitely find that the worse the economy and the lower the unemployment rate, the hotter the football market is, because there will be many unemployed people who can only choose to watch football for entertainment.

"Boss!" The players also stood up one by one and shook their heads at Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu faced the players solemnly, "I am not afraid of them at all, because there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Remember one sentence, if you are afraid, you will lose your whole life!"

After speaking, Ye Qiu walked to the side of the bus driver Johnson and motioned him to open the front door of the car.

With a puff, the front door of the car opened, and everyone at the scene was terrified, because when the crowd was so angry, Ye Qiu dared to walk out of the car. What would this cause? Will he be beaten? Some people even suspected that he would be killed by this group of obviously drunk guys?

"Close the door, I'll open the way!" Ye Qiu said to the driver Johnson.

The driver Johnson hesitated for a moment, and under Ye Qiu's insistent eyes, he chose to nod, "Open the door quickly, just tap the windshield, and I'll open it!" After that, with a puff, the door closed again.

Everyone stared at Ye Qiu who walked from the door to the front of the car in amazement. They couldn't believe it. Is this man crazy? He actually chose to rush out at this time? Is he really not afraid?

"Do you know why I came out?" Ye Qiu stood still in front of the car, but looked at the group of extreme Tottenham fans in front of him. Many of them are probably football hooligans who will be blacklisted in the stadium for life, right?

"Because I think I have to come out and tell you that if you really love this team, then everything you are doing now is not called love, because loving a team does not mean that you should destroy it by drinking, and love will not make you choose to attack the players of the team!"

"I am standing here now. I am the head coach and chairman of the team. The biggest responsibility for losing the game lies with me. If you have any dissatisfaction to vent, come to me, but now, I will take my players and my assistants away from here, and then I will see if you really love this team!"

After saying this, Ye Qiu nodded to the driver Johnson behind him, and then walked forward.

The black fan who was blocking Ye Qiu in front was holding a stone in his hand, holding it tightly. When he saw Ye Qiu really coming up, he gritted his teeth and waved his right hand, about to throw the stone in his hand, but at this moment, a companion next to him held his right hand tightly.

"You are fucking crazy, he is our head coach!" After saying this, he snatched the stone from his hand tightly, pulled him, and made way.

The whole scene seemed very quiet, whether it was the onlookers at the scene, the fans who surrounded the team bus, or the players in the bus, they were all very quiet, but everyone's heart was in their throat, and many people looked around.

Every time someone in the crowd waved their hands and wanted to throw something in their hands, but they were quickly stopped by the people around them.

The huge crowd slowly separated a path like a tide, Ye Qiu walked in front, and the bus followed behind. The police at the scene and some police who heard the call for help hurriedly maintained order, but from beginning to end, no one threw even one thing at the bus and Ye Qiu in front of the bus.

This amazing scene shocked all the reporters and fans at the scene, because they also found that it was not that no one wanted to throw, because for those drunkards, they didn't care who was in front of them, but every time someone wanted to throw something or rush forward, there was always someone in the crowd to stop them or stop them.

Even when the police were short of manpower, many Tottenham fans came out on their own initiative, holding hands, separating the fans on both sides, and making way for the Tottenham bus to pass.

In the bus, the players looked out the windows on both sides and saw that many people in the crowd on both sides gave them a thumbs up, but in their opinion, this was for the head coach Ye Qiu.

Bang bang~ The driver Johnson desperately slapped the windshield. He shouted a few times, but Ye Qiu, who was walking in front, didn't hear it, so he used this method to get Ye Qiu's attention, "Okay, get on the bus!" Johnson said.

Ye Qiu saw that the bus had reached a wide area, nodded, and returned to the bus.

"Hurry up and sit down, let's go!" Ye Qiu sat in his seat and shouted to the players.

The players didn't say anything and returned to their seats, but the look they gave Ye Qiu was obviously different from usual. At least at that moment, none of them had the courage to go on, because they didn't know what would happen after they went on.

Because of this, they admired Ye Qiu's courage to go on. Even if nothing happened after he went on, at least at that moment, he dared to go on, which proved everything. Maybe it was his courage to go on that shocked the fans.

"If you are afraid, you are doomed to lose forever!"

Ye Qiu's words kept ringing in their ears.

The team's bus left the Emirates Stadium and headed north along the highway. Although no one spoke or left their seats on the bus, everyone had forgotten about the loss to Arsenal.
