However, Sunday (22/11/2009) at White Hart Lane stadium, the crowd made flabbergasted. Striker host Tottenham Hotspur, Jermain Defoe, appeared incredible. He scored 5 goals and made his team 9-1 win over Wigan Athletic. This is also the biggest victory in the history of the Premier League since 1992.
Defoe scored a goal in minute 51, 54, 48, 69, and 87. A remarkable achievement, because rarely are there players who scored that much in one game. He also noted the record scorer in the second millennium.
In Premier League history that started rolling in 1992, there had been a player who scored 5 goals in one game. They are Andy Cole at Manchester United take to defend against Ipswich Town on March 4, 1995. The second record printed defense of Alan Shearer at Newcastle United against Sheffield Wednesday, on September 19, 1999.
Defoe to match the record of both players. The difference, Andry Cole and Shearer scored a coordination meeting on the first millennium. While Defoe as a holder of record scorer in one match in the second millennium.
Sharpness Defoe's no doubt. Since pioneering football career with West Ham United, he began to be judged as a talented striker. In 93 appearances, he scored 29 goals.
The most productive period he experienced when defending Tottenham Hotspur first period, 2004-2008. He scored 43 goals from 139. Therefore, once trained Tottenham, Harry Redknap Defoe pulled back from Portsmouth. Moreover, his performance at Portsmouth also remained good, scoring 14 goals from 31 games.
I think, there's no reason anymore for English national team coach, Fabio Capello, to forget. Will lead to protest, if he had not taken to the World Cup 2010.
