At around 5 p.m. on January 22, 2008, the streets near the White Deer Lane stadium were occupied by fans from all directions.
In the second leg of the semi-final of the English League Cup, Tottenham host city rivals Arsenal.
This stadium is the famous "devil's home" in the Premier League, and is considered to be the one that casts a curse on the visiting away games, because the Premier League players rarely get the advantage here.
Since the start of the Premier League in 1992, Liverpool, city rivals Arsenal and other teams have won few victories here. Manchester United have also been plagued by the "White Hart Lane curse" until April 2003, when they won a victory here.
"The so-called magic spell, in fact, is the home advantage. The length and width of the White Deer Lane court are short, and the space is not enough, which is not conducive to the team who controls the ball. The field of the teams who play the pass and control, such as Barcelona and Arsenal, is large within the normal range, trying to tear the space apart, while the field of the teams who play the counterattack is generally small, such as Stamford Bridge
David Dunne explained to Andy, who was standing in front of the balcony window overlooking the stadium with a smile.
"Well, it seems that as the second smallest stadium in the Premier League, it has become an advantage. I like the atmosphere here, which is no less powerful than the 80000 strong New York metropolitan stadium. Especially in that area, my God, don't they get tired? "
Andy laments the crazy atmosphere of the White Deer Lane stadium. It seems that the fans have never stopped singing, especially the position of the East stand.
In the East stand, there is a three-layer fan stand, occupying the whole bottom line side, just like a three-layer birthday cake, full of people standing, all the singing starts from here.
"Those are Tottenham's diehards, almost everyone grew up there, like the inheritance, they will bring their own children to watch the game, and then teach them to sing the team song."
"This is the best picture on the football field!" Andy expressed his admiration for the loyalty of the fans.
"How big is our winning face in this game?"
Hearing the boss's question, David Dunn also smiled a little helplessly: "the problem is not big. In recent seasons, the Carling Cup has been a stage for Wenger to test the substitutes and members of the second tier team. He doesn't pay much attention to..."
"I don't like to break the" Gunners' curse "that plagues Tottenham. I hate the fact that Arsenal must be ranked higher than Tottenham!" Andy's eyes glowed at David Dunne.
"Don't worry, boss, I will keep a close eye on the rest of the league. There will be no capsizing!" David Dunne, who has been the manager of Arsenal club for many years, knows his old club better than anyone else. What's more, he has cooperated with Wenger for many years. In fact, there is no secret for Arsenal in front of David Dunne.
When night fell, the White Deer Lane stadium was illuminated with bright lights, and the cheers of all the fans rang all over the White Deer lane.
With the referee's whistle, Tottenham and Arsenal, both of the city's most popular rivals, began a new fight.
On the big screen, Andy Smith stands in front of the floor to ceiling window of the box. Everyone is stunned and then cheers erupt. After all, the American local tyrant, since acquiring Tottenham, a series of practices have been welcomed by the fans.

With Ronaldinho's running, cheering and celebration, white deer Lane stadium sends out loud and deafening cheers. Andy also holds up his hands and claps hard, "the perfect start!"
In the next game, Tottenham almost dominated Arsenal. In the 26th minute, Tottenham set off a set piece near the midfield. They were good at header. When Arsenal players fought for it, they inadvertently put their own own oolong, 2-0!
Cheers and celebrations with laughter were heard all over White Hart Lane, but three minutes later, Arsenal, who was still in a state of shock, almost went to hell! Bell's anti offside shot was a one shot chance, but his push shot was rejected by the left post. Half-time score, 2-0, spurs scene dominant also made the due lead!
At the beginning of the second half Arsenal started to attack the whole line, but three minutes after the kick-off the Gunners were stabbed again!

Spurs a series of cross-over cooperation, and finally Lennon was able to live up to the expectations of the right rib volley to rewrite the score to 4-0!Seeing that the general trend has been set, heinks quickly replaced his three generals, Ronaldinho, Keane and bell, to protect them, but also to let them accept the cheers of the fans.
In order to avoid the embarrassment of a bigger score, Arsene Wenger finally changed the main force of xuezang. In the 70th minute, the three main first-team players of Arsenal made a wonderful cooperation. The volley at the top of the arc in the forbidden area scored a face saving goal, 4-1!
After the game, Tottenham still have the chance to expand the score, but they are all wasted, but Tottenham fans don't care anymore. The song of victory resounds in white deer lane. They have been waiting for the fans of this victory for 9 years!
Andy laughs contentedly, claps hands with the management of the team and the subordinates in the box to celebrate a big victory. Now he only waits for the whistle to ring and accepts the cheers of the whole fans.
However, the game did not end. In the third minute of the stoppage, Tottenham made a long pass. Tottenham's young players chased after each other wildly. The ball went to the empty goal, 5-1!
Arsenal suffered their biggest defeat of the season at White Hart Lane and were knocked out 2-6 on aggregate, which was the biggest loss of the Gunners since their 1-6 defeat at Manchester United on February 2001.
Andy Smith's Spurs won the hearts of all Tottenham fans and became the most hated American of Arsenal fans.
Because after the game, Andy contracted a nightclub in London to let the players who were still excited relax and celebrate, of course, with the consent of coach heinks.
All the paparazzi in London are excited. They try their best to get involved in the club. After all, a big victory has just spread, and Andy Smith, the super rich boss, has joined in. Tonight's night club party is not sure how lively it will be.
The happiest thing is that it's the night club Gongyang Xiaoluo. This guy bares a pair of big teeth, cuddles two hot beauties, and drinks the spade a champagne that the beauties pour into his mouth.
Naturally, he was very happy. He left Barcelona and joined Tottenham. Many media said that he was for the pound. The women's club has hollowed out his body and skills. He is finished.
But although he slowly applied Tottenham, he began to show the star's demeanor and sharpness again, hitting the damn paparazzi in the face of London with goals.
"Boss, why are you sitting alone?" Xiao Luo pushes away the two hot girls in his arms, takes the gold bottle of spade a champagne in the woman's hand, grins and sits next to Andy, asking in Portuguese.
Andy laughs, picks up the champagne glass and touches the bottle. After drinking, he holds Xiao Luo's shoulder and says in Portuguese: "I don't want to make the gossip headlines the next day, and..."
Said Andy picked up his eyebrows, shrugged and whispered, "nothing I like."
Xiao Luo said with an ambiguous smile: "I'll call some female stars to play. How about Cheryl?"
Andy can't help but look at the dead rabbit tooth Xiao Luo in surprise and quickly murmur: "you guys and Cheryl have a Tui?"
"Haha, how could it be..." Xiao Luo laughed twice, saw Andy's suspicious eyes, and said in a low and embarrassed voice: "she is not interested in me, but recently she and her husband are in a cold war and often come to the nightclub to play."
Andy's eyes twinkled a few times, and finally he said with a smile, "then call some more friends to celebrate. I'm Cheryl's fan!"
