Chapter 111 Golden Boots
Guaranteed the promotion spot, Notts County really has nothing to do in the last five rounds, so when Loew was in the starting lineup, he was completely free to do whatever he wanted, and even the players who didn’t make the squad didn’t have much complaints, because there was no The game with the burden of winning and losing is not as interesting as the competition within the team!
However, at the same time as the big rotation in each game, because the three forwards Hubnell, Villa and Di Natale are still competing for the league golden boot, Loew will arrange a three-forward formation in almost every game. All the strikers are on the field, but who will win the league's golden boot really needs to rely on the three strikers to win.
Anyway, the league's golden boots will never run out of Notts County, and there is even a high possibility that Notts County will take all the gold, silver and bronze boots. This is definitely a feat that has never happened in the history of the League Two. .
Although the three players all want this honor, which is not very outstanding, they will never be hurt by one or two goals, especially Hubner, who has passed his 30th year, and What can't be seen, if it weren't for the concern of the two striker partners, he would even want to withdraw from the shooter battle.
Hubner ranked first in the scorer's list with 27 goals, followed by Villa's 25 goals, and Di Natale delayed playing time due to injury. Even if he broke out later, he could only Ranked third in the scorer list with 23 goals.
In the penultimate round against Tranmere, the three strikers started together and scored six goals for the team.
But what is surprising is that these six goals have made the Golden Boot contest simple and blurred.
Di Natale, who scored the fewest goals, scored a hat-trick and the total number of goals became 26; after Villa scored twice, the total number of goals became 27, while Hubner only had 26 goals. One goal, the total number of goals became 28.
A goal difference between each other, even the teammates do not know who to favor.
However, in the eyes of the media who are concerned about the League Two, Di Natale should have the greatest chance of winning the Golden Boot, because he has been in very good shape recently. As long as he can maintain it, it is not difficult to overtake the two striker partners.
In the penultimate round, Notts County challenged Queens Park Rangers. In this game, Notts County's three goals were again occupied by three strikers.
Di Natale continued to maintain a bursting state, scoring twice in the first half, and Villa single-handedly scored to seal the victory.
This time, people who are following the scorer list are a bit confused, because after this game, the three Gods of Notts County actually scored the same total number of goals, both 28 goals.
Without playing like this, do the three of you want to win the honor of the Golden Boot together?
It is not without such precedent. If two players score the same number of goals in a season, then both will become the golden boot, and this honor will be divided into two categories.
Looking at the posture of Notts County, this is going to give three golden boots?
"You give me the golden boots, we are still good friends!"
During the recovery training, Villa leaned over to Di Natale's side and said with an unfathomable look.
Although the outside world is enthusiastic about the Golden Boot competition, it has little impact on the three strikers of Notts County.
Top scorer in League Two?
Take it out without showing your face!
Of course, Villa said this is just a joke with the striker partner, his character is like that.
Di Natale looked at Villa with an idiot-looking expression, and said angrily: "Are you still interested in this thing? Then you can take it, and don't give it to me for nothing!"
"Just kidding, although I don't really want it, this size is also an honorary title. I want to discuss with you to make Daario the golden boot. You know, the two of us learned from him. A lot, and this old guy probably won't be able to play for a few years,
Give him the golden boot honor, at least let his career not be so shabby! "Villa restrained his smile and said a little deeply.
Di Natale didn't expect Villa to have such thoughts, but after thinking about it, it was really necessary.
Hubernell is 35 years old and is definitely a veteran on the football field. Although he is in good shape, it will not be easy to compete for the Golden Boot in the League One next season.
Just like what Villa said, Di Natale and Villa, and even the little Altintop, were carefully instructed by Hubnell after they came to Notts County, and they were called teachers and friends. It is not an exaggeration, it is really necessary to give the honor of the golden boot to Hubernell.
Nodding, Di Natale and Villa reached a consensus on this matter.
"Don't be too obvious, this old guy is not easy to fool!" Villa was still reminding Di Natale.
The Italian striker waved nonchalantly.
"I know!"
But even so, how to hide from Hubernell really needs a lot of thought.
During training the next day, Di Natale and Villa came to the training ground as if they were in the hospital, one with a lame foot and the other with their heads covered under the surprised eyes of their teammates.
"Boss, my calf muscles are a little uncomfortable, maybe I'm a little too tired recently!" Di Natale said embarrassedly.
Loew smiled and didn't care. In his opinion, Di Natale, who scored consecutive goals, was still very hard on the field. Although the team doctor's medical report showed that the Italian forward's physical condition was good, muscle fatigue was still easy to appear. Yes, I don't mind.
"Then take a rest!" With a wave of his hand, Love granted Di Natale's leave.
"Boss, I have a cold, and the headache is terrible!" Villa covered her head and came to Loew, pretending to be pathetic.
Loew looked at David suspiciously. How could he look at this lively guy who didn't look like he had a cold?
"Uh, then you go to the team doctor and check it!" Loew didn't particularly care and arranged.
Villa was stunned for a moment. Why did he ask himself to go to the team doctor for examination? Shouldn't it be the same opportunity to rest as Di Natale?
"I have a cold! Boss!" Villa's eyes widened, as if to remind him on purpose.
"Well, go check it out!" Love thought that Villa didn't hear it, but this time he said it a little louder.
In an instant, three black lines appeared above Villa's head. With his head down, he turned and walked towards the medical center in frustration, muttering in his heart as he walked: "Cunning Antonio, I used the excuse of muscle fatigue if I knew earlier. It's gone!"
