Chapter 47 League Ends, Victory Deserved by Heaven (Please Share)
In the 32nd minute, Duff intercepted the ball and passed it to the left. Ashley Young took the ball and counterattacked. He cut inside at high speed and passed the ball diagonally into the penalty area.

To Madeira scored with a push shot.

Two to zero!
In the last two minutes of the first half, Hornding showed their championship strength and the players cooperated continuously to score a goal.

The game is still suspenseful.

In the first twenty minutes of the second half, both sides were a bit conservative, hoping to wait for the other side to make mistakes.

In the 65th minute, Eastwood replaced Oliver.

In the 68th minute, when Lu Kai was pressing the opponent, the opponent slipped.

Lu Kai completed the steal and sent a short pass.

Ashley Young caught up with the ball, but without being greedy for credit, he swept it in front of the goal.

Eastwood pushed the ball into the goal.

Three to one.

The scales of victory began to tilt.

In the 81st minute, Ashley Young rushed towards the opponent's goalkeeper and put appropriate pressure on him.

The opponent's goalkeeper made a lob pass to his midfield teammate outside the penalty area.

However, the pass was too low and Eastwood jumped up to head it away.

Lu Kai rushed to the top of the arc and took a long shot towards the football.

The opponent's goalkeeper was in a panic and could not make any effective save.

Four to one!

Lu Kai kills the game.

The Hornding players were devastated.

They cannot afford the cost of this defeat.

Not only did he lose the chance to advance directly, he also lost 10,000 pounds!
This guy is so unlucky!

In the end, Dartford beat Hornding 4-1, overtaking the opponent by one point and becoming the champions of the 1999-2000 Kent Premier League.

Next season, they will compete in the eighth-tier league in England!
The Kent County Football Association also prepared a grand awards ceremony for this year's champion... In the past, they just handed out signs and hung banners.

This year, they even have to build a simple temporary podium, which is very impressive.

This is because the Kent Football Association is trying hard to secure a huge sponsorship.

Lu Kai and Ashley Young were named in the Kent Premier League's Team of the Season.

Lu Kai was also named Player of the Season, Assist King of the Season and Bronze Boot of the Season.

He has scored 15 goals and 14 assists in the league this season, which is a terrifying double-ten level statistic.

He didn't win the Golden Boot because huge scores are common in lower-level leagues, and some players can score three or five goals in a single game, which is not very valuable.

Oliver, the team's second-highest scorer, scored ten goals and had one assist.

Ashley Young joined the team halfway through the season, scoring seven goals and providing four assists, making him the team's undisputed top scorer.

To Madeira only played for half a season, scoring six goals and providing one assist.

He has nothing but speed.

It can also be seen from here that the data of lower-level leagues are not of much value, because the player Wenger finally wanted to try out was 21-year-old To Madeira, not 15-year-old Ashley Young who had better data.

When Lu Kai received the best player medal, the chairman of the Kent Football Association, Joyce, said: "I hope you will never return to the Kent Premier League and stay in the eighth level for a long time."

It's a blessing and hopefully they never get relegated.

Lu Kai shook his head: "We don't plan to stay at the eighth level!"

Joyce was stunned for a moment, but didn't feel offended. They liked people who showed confidence, so he smiled and said, "Then I sincerely wish you success."

"If you need any help from the Kent Football Association, you can come directly to me."

"Let's exchange phone numbers later."

Lu Kai nodded.

The development of the team is inseparable from the support of the local government and the Football Association.

In the future, every level of league will have standards for all aspects of a team’s strength.

For example, economic conditions, stadium size, number of youth training students, etc.

The two bigger hurdles are five to four and two to one.

The transition from fifth to fourth is from semi-professional league to professional league.

The transition from the second division to the top division is a gap that exists between the two divisions.

It is regrettable that many teams are unable to be promoted due to factors other than these results.

Speaking of which, Dartford's promotion from ninth to eighth is also a key upgrade.

They moved up from the amateur league to the semi-professional league.

The so-called professionalism, in fact, in addition to whether there are professional contracts, paid employees, and youth training teams, can also be simply understood as whether there is a fixed huge expenditure for the team every year.

Semi-professional teams have this expense.

An eighth-tier team would have to spend at least £20,000 a year.

The bulk of this comes from player salaries and stadium maintenance.

The bulk of the expenses for the ninth-level amateur league are mainly stadium maintenance, registration fees, travel expenses, etc.

Finally, with cheers of “We are the champions”, the Kent Premier League came to a perfect end.

……

[Ding! You led your team to win the Kent County Premier League. You received a championship gift pack. The rewards are as follows:]

【Basic Pass·Black Iron 2】

[Basic Heading·Iron 3]

[Basic Long Pass·Iron 4]

Creative Commander Bronze II

Lu Kai frowned.

That's it?

A bunch of fun?
This league gift package is far inferior to the Kent Senior Cup gift package.

Wait, there's one more.

[Gold: Arsenal midfielder Rice scores a brace from free kicks, solidifying his reputation as a master. Your free kicks are significantly improved. Your free kicks are more likely to bypass the wall. Your free kicks are less likely to hit your own players. Your second direct free kick in a match increases your chance of scoring.]

The sound of nature?

Deduct money for puns?
nonexistent!

I'm sorry, I was too loud just now!
Arsenal is worthy of being Dartford's Premier League division, this skill is quite powerful.

Lu Kai's free kicks were already at the ninth level.

But now... I'm afraid I've reached the threshold of becoming a master.

The free kick experts in the team should have also been left behind.

Just ask who else?
Crosses: 48+1

Headers: 48+1

Long Pass: 51+1

【Set-pieces: 54+4】

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on Lu Kai's door.

"Brother Kai, it's me, Ashley."

"Oh, come in."

Ashley Yang pushed the door open, tears in his eyes. "Um, Brother Kai, we have a big family. I wonder if you can help me think of a way to get those tickets?"

Lu Kai was stunned: "As a black man, isn't it inappropriate for you to say so much?"

Ashley Young clenched his fists.

"Don't worry, the team will take care of the ticket issue. Coach Alfred will come and count them later."

Generally speaking, players have some family tickets.

The number of tickets varies depending on the team's revenue situation and tradition.

The number of tickets varies depending on the event.

For example, in the ninth-level league, free tickets cannot be given to players' families, because most of the people who come to watch the game are the players' relatives and friends, and they spend money to support the players.

If you give out free tickets, the team’s biggest source of income will be gone.

But if the team reaches the finals of the tournament, they can issue family tickets, which can be regarded as a way to repay everyone's past support.

Moreover, the presence of the players' relatives and friends can also motivate them to get into the game.
