Salah’s Revenge
by J.C.B. Digger.
I am J.C.B Digger and this here is the first introduction to my trilogy of books called “Stories of the Egyptian God”. Speaking from the view of a professional writer I believe this story is truly fascinating.
Breaking news! Here we are January 31st, 2019 the last day of the Premier League transfer window, live at the Tottenham Hotspur training ground waiting for a surprise guest to complete his medical assessment and hopefully come and speak to us. Quick, there he is, Sergio! Sergio! Please Sergio Ramos if you could share us a moment of your time with us.
“Yes of course, it would be my pleasure”.
Thank you Mr Ramos, so we’re here from Sky Sports with a few questions regarding your sudden transfer to the Premier League.
“Well you see La Liga was getting boring and with Ronaldo leaving Real Madrid I thought I would jump ship before it all sank.”
I see, what do you see the rest of this season going like up against top goal scorers like Mo Salah and Sergio Agüero?
“I feel very confident coming into this league; I wouldn’t personally call Salah a threat after he cried off in the Champions League final and I’m sure Agüero won’t cause any problems.
Well thank you for your time Sergio Ramos, and good luck to you this season. Back to you in the studio, Jeff.
After a dramatic finish to the Premier League, Manchester City win the League followed by Liverpool and Chelsea. We now go to Madrid here live on the 1st of June for the Champions League final. Both Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool now stand in the tunnel, there does seem to be some jeering from Sergio Ramos to the Egyptian god Mo Salah who seems very focused and unfazed. The teams head onto the pitch where a roar rises from around the stadium.
Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson wins the coin toss so kicks off for the first half. Immediately Liverpool are on the attack with Bobby Firminio driving the ball forward into the box which is collected by Salah but is hacked down by Ramos, hopefully not a repeat of last year but Salah gets to his feet as Ramos is awarded a yellow card and a penalty is given to Liverpool. Salah heads to the spot calmly, smooth as you like he drills the ball into the bottom right corner.
Here we are now 39 minutes in, Liverpool one Tottenham nil. Salah accelerates up the right wing quickly accompanied by Ramos, there’s some tussling, Salah turns and Ramos crashes to the ground. Play continues and Salah crosses a beautiful ball into the box but just out of reach of Sadio Mané. The referee has now arrived at Ramos who is still on the floor clutching his shoulder. A stretcher arrives for what looks like a dislocated shoulder. Wow! Isn’t that funny. Just watching it back–a ruthless challenge by Mo Salah possibly a bit of revenge there can’t blame him really.
Liverpool win the Champions League Final two nil for a sixth time with the final goal coming from Divock Origi after some confusion in the box. A wonderful display of football tonight with a mix of skill and hard tackles, so from us here at Sky Sports. Good night.
