The Athletic FC. totally extra today into totally cup semi-finals eight men began this year four have already fallen now five questions await to see who will take their place in the final alongside producer charlie in case he gets through which is of course completely up to chance williams cox jones miller are they human or are they answer find out in this totally football show
Hello and welcome once again to the Intertotally Cup. What a terrific competition it has been so far this year already. If you haven't enjoyed the quarterfinals so far, then do go back before you go any further with this and check those out. They are in a separate previous edition of Totally Extra. Good. Well, it's been tight so far in the competition. Indeed, just a single point separating our contestants in three of the four quarterfinals. Michael Cox defeated Daniel Story 3-2. Same scoreline for Tom Williams as he knocked Charlie Eccleshare out. Producer Charlie's clash with Duncan Alexander was a 4-3, three for all. And the one blowout that we've seen so far has been Colin Miller's 4-1 drubbing of Benji Laniado, a Hammers fan.
Colin, with that win, earned himself a semi-final matchup with shadowy string fuller producer Charlie. The other semi-final sees three-time runner-up Tom Williams take on three-time champion Michael Cox.
Who are the contestants in the first semi-final?
Woof. So, Coxie and producer Charlie, the two most decorated players in the history of the Intertotally Cup, are both still in the tournament. Curiously, they never faced each other. Could that be this year's final or is there an upset in store? Find out as we bring you the Intertotally semi-finals.
This is the Totally Football Show with James Richards, part of the Athletic FC podcast network.
All right then, semi-final one. It's Michael Cox against Tom Williams. Michael Cox, welcome back.
Thank you for having me back.
Well, you earned your right to be here. That much is clear. Although I have to say, many people might have been surprised by the three out of five performance in the quarterfinals.
What was that about? You know, I nearly asked to cancel because I had such a bad cold that day.
How did Michael Cox perform in the quarterfinals?
So I'm going to attribute it to my being blocked up. Right. I've got no excuses today. None. I'm fully fit. Right. Ready to go. Okay. Looking forward to it.
Yeah, absolutely. You are the favourite by dint of your previous titles, so the pressure very much on you. The man you are facing, though, Tom Williams, a three-time runner-up, but three years in a row he's reached the final. And once on the way there, he defeated Michael Cox, didn't you, Tom?
You said we've never played before.
No, I said that you've never faced you and Charlie.
What was the outcome of the match between Michael Cox and Tom Williams?
Producer Charlie. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Is that right, Producer Charlie? Coxsey got knocked out by... Yes, it's true, Tom Williams.
Ah, yes. No, yeah, I did. I'd forgotten about it. I try and suppress all memories of the Intertotally as far as possible, the good and the bad. So sadly, some of the more positive experiences have gone out with the negative experience backwater.
Right. Well, whatever positive things you do, if you lose the final match in the Intertotally... It's heartbreak, isn't it? So could this be your year? Let's find out. Michael, we're going to begin with you.
Who is Colin Millar and what is his background?
Five questions, of course, for you both. And then, if needed, a tiebreaker. But your first question, Michael, is which of these players did not play for Sam Allardyce's Bolton? Vincent Candela, Hidatoshi Nakata, Diego Tristan and Yuri Dzhokaev.
My first thinking is that it is the third one. I'm sure Tristan did play in the Premier League. Maybe he played at Birmingham. There was Kondala. Kondala definitely played for Bolton. Nakata, I think the most overrated player in the history of football, did play for paradise as Bolton. And Djokovic obviously did. So I'm going to go for... Yeah, he did have a spell somewhere. I'm going to go for Diego Tristan.
Well, Michael, Diego Tristan did, in fact, not play for Sam Allardyce's Bolton. A point for you, sir.
How did Producer Charlie fare in his quarterfinal match?
Just out of interest, before we come on to Tom's first question, who in your top five most overrated players ever?
