Chapter 55: Double Crown
When the final whistle blew, Tottenham Hotspur won the FA Cup this season with a 3-1 win over Hull City at Wembley Stadium!
It was the third time in 53 years that Tottenham had won the FA Cup, and Benjamin celebrated the victory with his hands raised in the air.
In the course of the game, all kinds of unfair penalties made him hold back the fire, and these were all vented at the end of the game.
"Your ugly performance can't snatch the championship that belongs to us from me!"
At what was supposed to be a handshake with the referee's team, Benjamin pointed at Probert's nose and scolded him.
As a result, Probert didn't seem to be convinced, and was ready to show Benjamin a red card.
The linesman and fourth official stopped the angry referee and pulled Probert out of the pitch.
Don't look at the occasion, even if the Tottenham players don't come to beat him, there will be Tottenham fans who will fall from the stands.
At that time, Probert might not be able to leave if he wanted to, and if he wasn't beaten half to death, he would be considered shit luck.
"Losing your grace, Ben."
Levi didn't know when he came behind Benjamin and said lightly.
Before Benjamin could reply, another sentence came out of the Jews:
"But it's well done! The club will fully support you! ”
Benjamin threw the following onto the turf and hugged everyone on the field, whether it was the staff or the players, and sent the best wishes to everyone.
At the age of less than 30, in the first season of his coaching career, he led the team to the double, and Benjamin broke several records.
Tottenham Hotspur's two successive managers were young coaches, and Benjamin has been compared to Villas-Boas since taking office.
Now that the dust has settled on the first season, Benjamin, who holds two titles, can finally say with confidence:
At Tottenham I did a hundred times better than that Portuguese!
The ecstatic Tottenham players formed a circle and Kane pulled Benjamin over and jumped shoulder to shoulder with the whole team in celebration.
Benjamin then walked to the billboard on the sidelines and was interviewed by the media.
Maybe it was just last week's Premier League win, but today's FA Cup is just as celebrated and just as happy.
But it didn't seem to be as different as winning his first championship before, and it was so exciting.
"Congratulations, another champion is in your hands, what kind of mood are you in now?"
'It's happy, it's exciting, our goal tonight was to make history and we did it, and we did it after a very bad start.
I've always been proud of the resilience of this team, even in the face of injustice, the lads were not discouraged, and today they once again showed their tenacity and never-say-die fighting spirit! ”
"During the game, the referee had a couple of controversial decisions, is there anything you would like to say?"
The smile on Benjamin's face grew.
"I don't have much to say for now, let's ask the next question."
'You led Tottenham to the Double in your first season in charge, did you expect that?
"Before taking over Tottenham? I thought about winning the championship with the team, but I didn't expect to win two titles in the first season.
I still have to thank a lot of people, my grandfather, my parents, Levy, all the staff at the club, the players, all the Tottenham supporters.
These two championship trophies are not my credit alone, they are inseparable from the joint efforts of everyone, and even more inseparable from everyone's help. ”
'Will there be a major change to Tottenham's squad next season? Which players are likely to leave? Do you have any players you'd like to bring to White Hart Lane? ”
……
"It's a great victory, we have great mental strength.
Both the fans and the coaches believed in us even in adversity, and we gave back! ”
Interviews with the players were soon over, and the FA Cup award ceremony was set up to begin.
The Hull City squad walked up to the podium in silence, accepted the runners-up medal and left the pitch first, leaving Wembley to double winners Tottenham Hotspur!
Tottenham's players lined up and ascended to the stands under the protection of on-site security personnel.
Luckily, the fanatical fans seated on both sides of the aisle excitedly reached out and high-fived the Tottenham players in celebration.
The players ended up passing through a very narrow staircase, and after climbing up to the podium.
The journey is tortuous and long, and it seems to be the same as the process of winning the championship, symbolizing that the Lily Army has finally passed through the darkness and ushered in the light.
Tottenham's players were all in place and FA officials presented them with medals.
A week later, Dawson once again captained the team and lifted the FA Cup trophy with both hands.
Dawson, who will say goodbye to Tottenham at the end of the season, was once again in tears.
Fireworks and streamers, the whole Wembley is noisy.
The fans sang "Glory to Tottenham Hotspur" as the Tottenham players returned to the pitch with trophies.
After the award ceremony, with the cheers and singing of the fans, Benjamin enjoyed the treatment of every champion manager - a champagne bath of happiness.
Kyle Walker poured a whole bottle of champagne on Benjamin's body, and Harry Kane, Danny Rose and others also participated in the "siege" of their head coach.
"You're all waiting for me! I haven't settled the account with you last time! ”
Benjamin, who was drenched in champagne all over his body, took a towel and wiped his hair, and when he saw Levi unscathed, his anger instantly became even greater.
"Why don't they dare to spray champagne on you?"
"It shows that they are closer to you, which is a good thing."
Benjamin shook his head helplessly, and Levi was right.
But these boys must have been controlled too strictly, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.
"Let them be happy now, and I will have a way to teach them a lesson later."
"Let's go, let's take a group photo."
"What? Then I'll have to change my suit. ”
Benjamin didn't want to be so embarrassed to be photographed in a group photo.
The whole Tottenham squad came to the middle of the pitch with a big smile on everyone's face.
After the photo shoot, the players continued to stay on the pitch with their families and enjoy the cheers of the fans.
The Tottenham fans in the stands hugged each other and sang together, regardless of whether they recognized each other or not.
Such a happy day is something that most of them have never experienced.
It's been more than 50 years since the last time we won a double.
The supporters of the Lily Legion have waited too long for this day.
Levi casually said to Benjamin, who was standing aside:
"To be honest, I never thought you would be able to do it."
Benjamin smiled, and said in a firm and confident tone:
"Now I did it, no, we did it."
Levi turned his head to look at Benjamin, who was not a few years older than his daughter, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"yes, we did."
"Daniel, did you see that?"
"What?"
Benjamin pointed to the entire spur crowd in the stands.
Levi kind of understood what the other party meant, "You mean?" ”
"That's right, don't you think the White Hart Lane stadium is a bit too small to accommodate Tottenham fans?"
Looking at the lively scene at Wembley Stadium, Daniel Levy nodded.
"Thanks to your title, we may need to adjust the expansion of the stadium, and 50,000 seats seems a bit short."
"Of course, 50,000 seats are enough for anything, and I'm looking forward to a more spectacular new stadium."
