Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 426 Tom's first substitute appearance of the new season: Could his long-range shot drive a tactical change for Manchester United?

Dongqiudi pinned post: Brighton vs Manchester United match is in progress, with Brighton currently leading 3-2.

Dongqiudi Live Match Report: That yellow man is here! In the 69th minute of the second half, Tang Ye came on as a substitute for Lingard!

[Switching positions; I was watching while sitting, now I'm kneeling.]

Let's see how effective LeBron James's special training is.

[If Tang Qiuwang scores a 3-pointer, it will be a 5-3 comeback victory for Brighton!]

Tang Ye's jumping ability has definitely improved; why doesn't he just dribble past the opposing goalkeeper? That way, they won't complain.

The comment section suddenly became lively, and the camera focused on Tang Ye, as Commander GGBond was signaling to his teammates on the field to make some tactical changes.

Because he had his hair permed, Tang Ye's hair would bounce upwards when he ran, making it look very bouncy.

GGBond is so energetic!

"United!"

"Man United!"

After Tang Ye came on, the Manchester United fans' morale suddenly soared.

Although he is only 19 years old, GGBond is already a key player in the team!

"Be more radical!"

Ten Hach's voice came again.

Time is running out, and Manchester United are currently trailing by one goal.

We have to play with abandon!

74th minute of the match!

The camera pans to the blond guy!

"Come on, come on!"

After receiving the ball from his teammate, Tang Ye immediately began to advance forward.

Because it was the first game of the new season and he had enough rest time, Tang Ye performed quite positively.

Rashford has started moving down the left flank!
If you're familiar with Tang Ye, you can probably guess that he'll immediately make a long pass to Rashford.

However, Tang Ye did not do that.

"Tang Ye, there's a defender up ahead, what's your plan?"

"Luke Shaw is there to provide backup."

Luke Shaw came to help Tang Ye, but this was not what Tang Ye wanted to see.

"Find Marcus!"

After shooing Luke Shaw away, Tang Ye dribbled forward himself, facing Brighton's defensive midfielder.

"here!"

Rodri's voice came over, and Tang Ye pretended to pass the ball back, but actually walked straight towards the defender's face.

Stephens charged in!

On the bench, both Ten Hag and Van der Gaghe had their eyes shining.

Stephens' physical strength is relatively weak compared to other defensive midfielders in the Premier League. Perhaps he can become Tang Ye's first successful physical challenge statistic this season!
Well, Tom!

"Eh!"

Tang Ye flicked the ball up with his toes and jumped over it.

It wasn't that Tang Ye didn't believe in his combat abilities after rigorous training.

Stephens' sudden charge was really quite frightening!

Ten Hach: ...

Rashford reached out!
boom!
The ball was passed to the baseline, and Rashford received it and combined with Luke Shaw, who was already prepared.

Finally, Luke Shaw presented an inverted triangle!
wow！

Tang Ye easily received the ball and took a step to adjust.

Take a look at the goal!
Just kick him!
"Oh! They just attacked!"

"The Brighton goalkeeper pushed the ball away!"

Grass!
He bit his jersey and held his head in his hands.

Seeing the opposing goalkeeper punch his shot away, Tang Ye must have felt terrible.

The director provided a replay.

Because there were two Brighton defenders at the top of the penalty arc, Tang Ye had to retreat before receiving the cutback pass, which resulted in him being almost 30 meters away from the goal.

In the replay, Tang Ye controlled the ball with his left foot and passed it to his right foot.

After swinging your leg, strike immediately!
"Hmm, Tang Ye's long-range shot was a bit fast..."

He Wei looked at Huang Jianxiang beside him, and Huang Jianxiang was also looking at He Wei.

"Can I say that Tang Ye's long-range shot had a touch of Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo?"

"Hmm... strictly speaking, he's still a little lacking. Tang Ye's ball control and adjustment speed is faster, but Ronaldo's leg swing was more powerful when he was younger. If Tang Ye could kick the ball with Ronaldo's speed, Matthew Ryan definitely wouldn't be able to handle it, because we saw that Brighton's goalkeeper's reaction was indeed a bit slow; he didn't expect Tang Ye to shoot directly from that position."

As his teammates ran up to prepare for the corner kick, Rodri patted Tang Ye's arm, seemingly amazed by Tang Ye's long-range shot.

It's a pity that the ball didn't go in, otherwise Tang Ye would definitely have shown off after the game.

"For Manchester United, Herrera takes the corner kick!"

"..."

[Tang the King is really impressive, but it seems he hasn't found his rhythm in the Premier League yet, right?]

[The pace of the Premier League? It should be the pace of the Premier League and my King Tang, okay?]

[You could play faster; it feels like Tang Ye is playing like he's on the national team against Brighton.]

The match continued until the 80th minute of the second half.

Manchester United were still trailing by one goal, and Ten Hag made his third substitution of the match at this point.

De Jong replaced Herrera as a substitute!
"Another rattan armor..."

He Wei almost blurted it out, but thankfully he held back in the end.

CCTV commentators need to be more professional!
On the left flank, Tang Ye and Rashford went down the byline together, while Tang Ye kept an eye on the situation in the middle, looking for possible attacking opportunities.

But just as he was about to cross the ball, Montoya was knocked down by Tang Ye.

"Grass!"

Spitting on the grass, Tang Ye got up and glared at Montoya, scaring the latter into silence.

Since this wasn't Montoya's first foul in the game, Tang Ye was actually thinking of going up to confront him.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much time left in the game, so Tang Ye chose to hold back for now.

"Take it easy, take it easy, pull the defensive line back!"

Manchester United's attacking pace is gradually increasing, which is making Brighton's manager a little anxious.

In the last 10 minutes, if they can fix their defense, they can get 3 points from Manchester United!

boom!
Smalling made a tackle and passed the ball to De Jong.

De Jong is very agile, able to get past pressing players while receiving the ball.

Then we immediately began to move forward!
Tang Ye was also running forward. After observing the situation in front of De Rong, he decided not to retreat to support him, but to let De Rong make his own moves.

Just as Ten Hag said during training, De Jong needs to take on the role of driving the team forward.

Simply put, it's like what De Jong is doing right now: moving the ball from the backfield to the frontfield.

"Come!"

When the time was right, Tang Ye reached out for the ball.

Because of Stephens' pressing, Tang Ye managed to kick the ball while trying to control it.

it's fine!
boom!
A long volley pass found Rashford, who had already broken into the defense on the left.

Wow!!!

Both sets of fans stood up!
Tang Ye's long, volleyed pass found Rashford perfectly!

Look to Rashford!
Manchester United's winger is extremely fast, and after rushing to the edge of the penalty area, he found a direct shooting opportunity.

boom!
A shot was taken, but it hit the post!

Pop up!
One more kick!
Goal! Goal!

"Rashford scores!"

"Hmm, that feels familiar, it's still the same long-ball counter-attack strategy from last season."

"Yes, that's exactly how Manchester United needs to play. They need to utilize Tang Ye's passing ability and vision to their advantage."

With just a few minutes left in regulation time, Manchester United equalized the score.

It's a pity that Rashford's first shot hit the post, otherwise Tang Ye would have gotten his first assist of the new season!

clap clap clap!
"come on! Come on!"

The score is now tied at 3-3, and there's not much time left.

To rediscover his form from playing in the Premier League, Tang Ye sped up the pace in an attempt to help the team score more goals.

“Tang Ye! Tang Ye! Tang Ye!”

Tang Ye received a through pass from Ziyech, controlled the ball, and cut inside from the right byline.

Walk into the restricted area!

Facing the defender in front of him, Tang Ye made his choice.

Swish!

A fried meatball is tossed out.

Brighton's defender tried to press, but Tang Ye didn't use the croquet move to get past him. Instead, he played a one-two with Haller and took the ball into the penalty area.

"Ohh!!"

Look at the far corner!
He unleashed a curling shot with his left foot.

duang!

The ball slammed against the post and was eventually cleared by a Brighton player.

Swish!
Tang Ye cursed as the cleats kicked up bits of grass.

"Beep, beep beep!!!"

The match ended in a draw, thanks to Rashford's equalizer.

This is Manchester United's second league point of the season.

Although they haven't lost a single game yet, compared to Manchester City and Chelsea who have already secured 6 points, 2 points is indeed not enough.

"Damn, that was close!"

With his hands on his waist, Tang Ye felt regretful about that last curling shot.

If that ball had gone in, Manchester United would have been the sole winner today!

"it's okay no problem"

Rodri and Tang Ye clapped hands and walked off the field together.

"You've done quite well, especially considering you haven't had much playing time."

Tang Ye waved his hand: "I feel like we'll score in a few more minutes."

They can score in a few more minutes.

Tang Ye wasn't showing off; he was just telling the truth.

If you observe closely, you'll notice that Tang Ye's performance has been getting better and better since he came on, improving by half a level every few minutes.

This is because he is using this match to find his footing in playing in the Premier League.

"Tom!"

After hugging Ten Hach, Tang Ye quickly returned to the locker room.

Dongqiudi Match Report: Manchester United 3-3 Brighton, Rashford scores a late equalizer, Tang Ye creates numerous chances in his season debut. (23142 comments)

After playing for about 25 minutes, Tang Ye received a rating of 7.4 from the Premier League, ranking 5th in the match.

A score of 7.4 is indeed a bit low for Super Tom, but considering this is the first game of the new season, Tang Ye's performance is still quite outstanding.

Especially that long-range shot right after he came on.

Fans on Twitter and Dongqiudi are all talking about Tang Ye's shot.

They started shooting right at 30 meters.

Tom, did you inherit the legacy of the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo?
Click, click, click!

The camera shutter clicked, and Teng Hahe and Tang Ye walked into the press conference room one after the other.

"Tom, although you didn't participate in the preseason games and returned to the team relatively late, you still put on a very good performance in the first game. We can see that you are trying to adapt to the team."

"Well, thank you"

Tang Ye picked up the microphone: "I feel there were some problems with the team's performance in this match, but my teammates and I will try to solve these problems gradually."

"Can you tell me about that long-range shot?"

The reporter smiled and asked the question, after which the room suddenly fell silent.

"Oh, I prefer the feeling of shooting directly at the door from a distance."

Tang Ye laughed heartily: "But it was just a little short. If that ball had gone in, I could have been happy for a week. Unfortunately, it didn't go in, so I can't be happy for that long."

"Is this part of your training program in the United States?"

"This one……"

Tang Ye pinched his nose: "To be honest, this wasn't part of my plan. I didn't go to Los Angeles to train specifically for shooting."

The training was tough, but the results were quite different from what we had imagined.

"However, I still quite like this feeling. Although that long-range shot didn't go in, I feel that if I spend some time practicing, I'll have more opportunities to shoot like that in the future."

"And what about your hair? Why did you dye your hair yellow?"

The reporter has a strong ability to grasp the key points, asking questions that fans want to know.

The camera focused on Tang Ye's blond hair, and Tang Ye reached out and touched his hair.

"Oh, you're not the first person to ask me this question. My teammate asked me the same thing. Actually, I just wanted to change the color; I thought this hairstyle looked better, so I tried it."

Tang Ye has always been someone who likes to try new things.

Whether it's playing football or having the same hairstyle!
Before the interview was over, the reporter asked Ten Hag about the matter of not letting Tang Ye participate in the warm-up match.

Ten Hach's answer to this was surprisingly simple.

"This is the result of discussions among the coaching staff; we believe it's appropriate for Tang to stay in Los Angeles for training."

"As for your question about the results, my opinion is that we'll have to wait and see in the later matches."

"The logic is that we need actual matches as a reference to judge a player."

……

The Times – Despite Tom’s good performance in the first game of the new season, Ten Hag said the player needs more games to prove himself.

Tom needs more games to prove himself.

This is what Ten Hah told reporters, and it is indeed true.

In just 25 minutes, you didn't even get a chance to see Tang Ye defending in the backfield!
Therefore, Tang Ye needs a starting appearance and a full match to showcase his abilities to fans and reporters to the fullest extent.

That match should be...

On August 27th, Manchester United will host Tottenham Hotspur in a clash of the Premier League's Big Six!

"This will be Tom's first appearance at Old Trafford this season, and given Ten Hag's characteristics, Tom will most likely, or almost certainly will, start in the third round. After watching the game, Manchester United fans will be able to predict their league results this season," said a reporter from the Manchester Evening News.

In addition to the Manchester Evening News, the well-known tactical magazine 442 conducted an in-depth analysis of Manchester United's tactical characteristics through a 30-minute video.

The experts at 442 have discovered something interesting.

"Tom has proven to have sufficient long-range shooting power, and if he also possesses long-range shooting accuracy, then Manchester United will undergo a tactical transformation."

"If I were a Liverpool or Manchester City fan, I would choose to stay home this weekend and watch Manchester United play Tottenham, silently praying that Tom doesn't have the precision required for long-range shots."

What would happen to Manchester United if Tom had the accuracy of long-range shots? Due to space limitations, the expert didn't say much, but it's certain that Manchester United's total points this season would be more than last season.

How many points did Manchester United have last season?

It is 92 points.
