Chapter 10 Happy 10th Anniversary

"George Wood! Goal! Gooal! Gooooal!!" The commentator shouted, "Nottingham Forest leads again! Ahhh! This is an incredible goal! George Wood dribbled the ball from the midfield and went straight to Huanglong! With the release of Gerald and Mascherano, he still successfully scored! This midfielder does not score goals often, let alone such a wonderful goal!"

Seeing Wood shoot the football into the goal behind Reina, Mascherano hit the ground hard. He now regrets that he was not pushing hard enough just now...

I wonder if Gerald regrets that he didn't directly shovel Wood's feet just now.

After scoring the goal, Wood was stunned for a moment, as if he had forgotten to celebrate.       When Aaron Mitchel and Ibisevic rushed up to celebrate with him, he pushed the other side and ran straight to the coach's seat on the sidelines.

When Wood broke through the defense of Gerald and Mascherano into the penalty area, Donn had already stood up from his seat. He clenched his fists and waited to celebrate the goal. Now he saw Wood running towards him again, rushed out of the coach's seat, spreading his arms, waiting for a warm hug with Wood.

It was Wood who saved him the tenth anniversary, so he had to thank him.

"Ahhh! Come on, George! Let me give you a passionate hug!! You little baby!" Tang En arranged a pose in front of the crowd, waiting for Wood to bump into him.

But Wood passed by him like a gust of wind, without even looking at him, as if he was air...

"Hello……"

Eastwood stood not far beside Donn, and the team led the way again. Of course he was very happy. Although Wood made the ball. He still got up from his seat and celebrated with his colleagues around him. At this moment, Wood came over and hugged him suddenly.

"Hey!"

"Wow!"

The people next to them seemed to be birds that were disturbed by Wood, scattered one after another.

Eastwood felt that Wood was holding him very hard and still exerting force, which made him breathless.

"Woo...d..." Eastwood said with difficulty, "Do you want...you want...strike me to death..."

Wood had no intention of letting go. He buried his head on Eastwood's shoulders, as if he was muttering something in his mouth. But in such a noisy environment, even in his ears, Eastwood couldn't hear it clearly.

What is he talking about? What is he doing?

Eastwood's mind is full of this problem now.

Done put a hand from behind and patted Wood's head and shouted, "Okay, George! Are you going to murder your coach and former teammate?"

As expected, the boss's words were the most effective. After he said this, Eastwood felt that the pressure on him was relieved. Wood let go of him and looked at him and said, "I'm sorry."

Then before Eastwood could recall the sentence, he turned around and ran away.

He never gave the real protagonist of this game a "passionate" hug. But Tang En didn't take it to heart.

"I'm ten years late." Donn stood in front of Eastwood. He said with a smile, "But he is so awkward."

Eastwood looked at Wood's back and nodded: "Yes, awkward person..."

"Wood ran over and hugged Eastwood after scoring the goal. What a warm scene! The hugs of the two of them shattered any previous rumors about cracks inside Nottingham Forest. The rumors about George Wood causing Eastwood to retire early can be stopped..."

The commentator sighed after seeing this scene.

Just as Gerald's world wave can boost Liverpool's morale, George Wood's goal and his hug with Eastwood after the goal also boosted the morale of Nottingham Forest. If everyone regards the Forests as their own big family, then the family will be their own friends, and their friends will have conflicts. Even if they have nothing to do with themselves, as a member of this big family, they will feel pain, depressed and disturbed.

Why did Eastwood and George Wood have caused the team to have poor record in recent rounds, not just because Wood is in poor form.

So when everyone saw Wood giving Eastwood a hug in person, the stone hanging in his heart was put down. This was a recovery of the team's morale. It was more obvious than Gerald's world wave.

In the subsequent game, the captain who regained the trust of the whole team led Nottingham Forest to suppress Liverpool on the scene. Tony Donn made Wood's main attack adjustment in the second half completely beyond Benitez's expectations, and what he and the Liverpool players on the field did not expect was Wood's determination in the offense, which was completely aura of "not returning until he defeated Loulan". Must score, must succeed, must win!

In the 77th minute of the game, Nottingham Forest scored another goal. The person who scored this time was Aaron Mitchel. After receiving Wood's pass in the penalty area, he used his long legs to get rid of Scotter's defense and suddenly shot. The football hit Agde's legs and changed the line. Reina caught off guard.

3:1!

However, such a score cannot really make Donne sit on the coaching seat. Everyone knows what kind of team Liverpool is, they are good at reversing when they are behind. Not to mention that this is still in their home court - Anfield Stadium. More than 40,000 home fans will always be their strongest backing, and the 12th player on the court.

As long as the game is not over yet, even if you lead two goals, Don Eun can't say he won the game.

Fortunately, the players on the court also knew what kind of team Liverpool was. They began to shrink and play their best defensive counterattack, making Liverpool dare not beat them up and counterattack with all their might.

This move really makes Liverpool uncomfortable.

It was not until the last five minutes that Liverpool had some good opportunities, and they didn't care about defense. Anyway, as long as they didn't score a goal, it would be the same if they let the opponent score ten. They pressed all the way and sieged the Forest's goal amid the song "You Never Walk Alone".

They successfully scored a goal in the 89th minute. At that time, there was chaos in front of the Forest team. I don’t know if it was someone who played the ball or the ball hit the person. In short, the football flew in like that. Although Akinfeyev made a save, he was still late.

This goal boosted Liverpool's morale and planned to continue to work hard to equalize the score. But Nottingham Forest did not give them such a chance again, and the scene was once very thrilling. But the Forest finally held the score.

When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game four minutes after stoppage time, the stands booed against Tony Donn - the bastard got a victory as he wished and escaped on his tenth anniversary.

Tang En seemed very happy. He stood up and shook hands and hugged everyone around him, congratulating him on winning this memorable competition.

Then Donn walked towards Benitez, stretched out his hand from a distance, and smiled like a place where peach blossoms bloomed.

Benitez really wanted to hide from Don En at this time. But where did he hide in front of everyone?

"Congratulations, Mr. Tangen." In desperation, Benitez had no choice but to shake hands with Tangen reluctantly.

"Ha, thank you. This is a good game. You guys do a good job." Tang En replied with a smile.

The two men touched their hands gently. Even if they had shaken their hands, Benitez turned around and walked away, and Tang En went back to hug the players on the court, thanking them for their efforts, which made him a wonderful night.

He hooked Wood's neck. He pulled Eastwood over and shouted to many reporters: "I'm so sorry for disappointing you!"

"Hey, Tony! Is there anything to talk about about your ten years?" The reporters didn't care about Tang En's ridicule. They had been accustomed to his temper when dealing with him for a long time. He just liked to show off his verbal advantage.

Donn looked at the owner of the post. He looked at Eastwood standing next to him and said proudly: "You can see it yourself. I have been here for ten years."

A reporter came up to ask Wood what was going on with that hug. Wood regained his cold expression and said concisely: "Celebrating the goal."

The reporter asked: "Why did you think of celebrating the goal with a hug with Eastwood?"

"I ran over and saw him, and hugged him."

Donn heard Eastwood muttering quietly: "It's so awkward..."

He smiled.

Back in the locker room, Evan Dogerty and Alan Adams were already waiting there, and they were going to present the memorial trophy to Donn.

"I'm sorry. Tony. We can't give you this award in front of so many people on the court." Evan handed the crystal cup in his hand to Donn.

"That doesn't matter. Mr. Chairman." In front of the team's ground, his name was still very formal. "I'm very satisfied with winning the game. My team has given me the best trophy." He told the whole team that what rewarded him was the warm cheers and applause of the players.

At this time, Eastwood stood up and said to Don: "Boss, the team has a gift to you."

Because he was a player of this team not long ago, and he has a very popular place. So after becoming a coach, Eastwood's main job was to contact the team and coaching team to serve as a bridge. Now he has been pushed out as the spokesperson of the team.

When Donn was puzzled, Eastwood snapped his fingers, and Bell and Pepe brought out a big crown cake. There were ten rubies made of big cherries on the crown, representing Tony Donn's ten seasons with the Forest. The middle of the crown was written in red jam:

It's just ten years, just beginning.

"Boss, we hope you can work for another ten years, another ten years." Pepe held the cake and expressed the voice of the whole team.

Tang En's eyes were a little wet, and this hand was beyond his expectations. He thought these players were so cute.

"Thank you." His voice was choked.

"Okay, don't be so sad!" Chris Lack greeted him loudly, and he winked at the people next to him.

Wood and Eastwood pressed Done down, left and right, and then Pepe, who was still warm just now, suddenly put the cake in his hand on Done's face...

"Happy tenth anniversary, boss! Haha!"

The reporters finally waited for the belated head coach of Nottingham Forest. But his appearance surprised everyone here, including Benitez, who was already a little impatient to wait...

Tang En's face was white, with only two eyes exposed. When he suddenly looked, everyone thought a skull had come in. His dark red suit was also covered with white and red paste, and his black hair turned gray again.

"These are all cream." After Tang En sat down, he explained calmly to the stunned people. "A little 'war' just happened in the locker room... As a revenge on them, I came out like this and let you see what kind of treatment I have suffered! You must write it in the manuscript and help me scold them. This is the ironclad evidence of the discord inside the Nottingham Forest locker room!"

He said seriously above, and there were reporters below that couldn't help laughing. Even Benitez couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

However, some reporters couldn't hold their faces anymore. Even the fool could hear the implication of Tang En's last words. He hyped up the media that were not united within the Forest team before.

BBC5's "Today's Event" uses this scene as a special highlight of this week's league and is placed at the end of the show. Looking at the screen, Don Eun was filled with indignation and accusing the team of his treatment, Leinker smiled happily.

"This is Tony Donn's tenth anniversary. Nottingham Forest captured Anfield, the most difficult to conquer Anfield, George Wood and Eastwood seemed to be remiss. He received the crystal trophy awarded by the club and the 'special gift' given to him by the whole team... Ha!"

The manuscript in Bascombeden in his column is completely different from what he wrote while enjoying football at Anfield. The manuscript he wrote in one go has been deleted by him. In the manuscripts that everyone can see now, he congratulated Tony Donn on his victory and thought it was reasonable for the Forest team to win. But at the end, he still wrote a little sourly: "Nottingham Forest is Tony Donn's team. With Tony Donn on there, they are invincible in the world. But if Tony Donn is gone... Perhaps Nottingham Forest should consider getting rid of 'Tang' in the future..."

But the supporters of Nottingham Forest are obviously unwilling to consider this issue. For them, Tony Donn will work on the city stadium like Ferguson, until he retires when he is old. Then everyone set up a life-sized bronze statue for him outside the stadium. Even if he is not on the coaching seat, his influence is still in every corner of Nottingham Forest.

This is the last scene that a forest king should have.
