Dongqiudi Match Report: Tang Ye and Lewandowski score a brace as Manchester United draw 3-3 with Bayern Munich at home, maintaining their top spot in the group. Luke Shaw appears to be injured. (32812 comments)

After the match, Tang Ye lost to Lewandowski by a rating difference of 0.2, missing out on the Man of the Match award.

However, Tang Ye maintained a relatively good attitude.

Although there was a chance to win, it was no easy feat to finish the game in a draw.

"Lewandowski is amazing, wow!"

Sitting on the ground, Tang Ye shook his head.

He suddenly stood up.

"Fuck, why is the ground wet?!"

"Hahaha!"

"You washed your hands at your seat during halftime."

De Jong, who was washing his hands, provided the answer.

"OK then"

Looking around, Tang Ye found a dry spot to sit down.

Don't ask GGBond why he doesn't sit on the stool; he doesn't know either.

Rodri was looking at the standings on the sidelines. Currently, both Manchester United and Bayern Munich have 7 points, but Manchester United leads Bayern Munich by 3 goals in goal difference.

In addition, Valencia has 3 points and Young Boys has 0 points.

Judging from the current situation in Group H, Manchester United's qualification for the knockout stage is very secure.

"I feel the most important thing to watch is the second game against Bayern."

Tang Ye continued Rodri's words: "Actually, we have a better chance of winning this game, it's just that their flank play is really disgusting."

Tang Ye suddenly had a thought: to ride Doraemon's time machine.

GGBond isn't greedy; he doesn't need to go back thousands or tens of thousands of years. Moving the timeline forward by 120 minutes is perfectly sufficient.

He wanted to yell at Kovac, "Don't play on the wing!"
I'm exhausted from running!
Click, click, click!

"Yes, that's right, it's mainly a tactical issue. Bayern are playing some tricks, and if we had considered that before the match, I think they wouldn't have had a chance today."

Ten Hag briefly discussed some statistics with the reporter.

Putting aside tactical dominance, Manchester United handled the game quite well in all aspects, which is why they outperformed Bayern in many statistics.

Just like the actual score showed, there was no winner in this match!

"Of course, our goal remains unchanged: to advance as group winners. Having learned from this match, our opponents won't have it so easy in the next game."

"But the second match will be held at Allianz Arena," the reporter noted.

"Yes, I know, of course I know. But I think we'll be ready."

Besides the Champions League, the reporter also asked Ten Hag about the upcoming league matches.

With three teams scoring 23 points each, the top three teams in the Premier League are under a lot of pressure.

"According to expert predictions, if a team wants to win the championship, it may need a total of no less than 95 points in 38 games..."

I've said this before.

Ten Hagh interrupted the reporter.

"If Manchester City wants to create an era in the Premier League, then this season will mark the end of Manchester City's era."

Click, click, click!

The timing of the interview was excellent; Ten Hag was speaking on the pitch just as dusk was falling.

The sky is red when the sun is about to set.

Is this Manchester United's color?

Some people say no, because the sky at sunset also has a yellow tint, so strictly speaking it should be red + yellow.

But that's not the problem.

GGBond's hair is blonde!

The yellow GGBonds are wearing red jerseys, and that's the color of the Manchester sky right now.

GG color!
The color of an exploding shell!

Bond!

……

After their Champions League match against Bayern Munich, Manchester United only has one game left in October.

Premier League Round 10 home game against Everton!

Given Manchester United's current position in the standings, no Premier League match is unimportant to them.

Ten Hag spoke to the players before the start of the new day's training.

Manchester United's focus should not be on the strength of their opponents right now.

Because no matter whether the opponent is Manchester City, Everton, or a bottom-ranked team like Burnley, Manchester United only has one goal in mind.

That's 3 points!
"Look at me!"

Tang Ye jumped up and flicked his wrist, then launched a three-pointer.

boom!
The soccer ball hit the backboard and then bounced off.

"I rely on?"

I just played basketball in Los Angeles in August, but I didn't expect to lose my touch so quickly.

"Give me one, give me one!"

Tang Ye asked Rodri for the ball and lifted it off the ground.

An unwise person would definitely choose to continue shooting with their hand.

Unfortunately, Tang Ye was a clever man.

Come!
Throw the ball out and hit it with the instep!
The 90-point passing ability came in handy.

Swish!
Hollow sphere!
"Rhodes, speak!"

The person who loves to question himself the most is his underling, Luo De. Tang Ye showed off his skills today, let's see if he's still so arrogant.

"Shit, Tom's amazing!"

"Of course, I have a lot of basketball talent."

Tang Ye feinted left and right, executing an Asian step, before scoring again with his foot.

"No, I feel like I'm invincible at basketball. If I lob the ball high enough, the opponent can't block it."

After explaining, Tang Ye immediately put his plan into practice, scoring 3 points with a kick from the instep.

The football started to fall after reaching its highest point.

It hit the rim.

It's a pity it wasn't hollow, but it still went in in the end.

"7 points!"

With two three-pointers and one Asian step layup, Tang Ye scored 7 points in just a few minutes.

Sitting on the ball, Tang Ye relaxed: "If only Premier League points were this easy to earn."

"You want to win the championship."

Rodri dribbled the ball over with his hands.

Haha, I think so.

Tang Ye pressed the ball under his buttocks with his hand: "But we can't be too relaxed either. If it's too easy, then the championship is meaningless."

"So what do you think of this season? Three players scoring 23 points each."

Tang Ye wanted to say that the pressure was too great, but he was afraid of being ridiculed by Rodri.

"Perfect! Winning just one game against Manchester City isn't enough to win the title; we have to beat Liverpool too."

Where there were no reporters, Tang Ye revealed his fierce fangs.

Hey!

Van der Gach's voice came from afar, the Manchester United assistant coach holding a basketball: "Isn't there a basketball here? Why are you using a football?"

"A basketball is too heavy; it'll make you stupid if it hits your head!"

Tang Ye shouted.

Wow.

Van der Gach looked at the basketball in his hand: "That makes sense."

……

According to Titan Sports Weekly, the Chinese men's national football team has risen to 41st in the FIFA national team rankings, ranking third in Asia and surpassing South Korea. Iran is first at 34th, and Japan is second at 39th.

"China's current FIFA ranking is very close to its record of 37th in 1998. The Asian Cup in January next year may be the opportunity for the national team to make new history," Chinese reporters and fans are optimistic.

After the latest FIFA rankings update, fans' attention has been drawn to the Asian Cup, which will be held in two months.

A simple analysis shows that the Chinese team is currently ranked very high among all Asian teams.

In actual combat... analyzing historical records, apart from Japan and Qatar, whose results are highly unpredictable, the Chinese team has a relatively high chance of winning against other teams.

The news linked to the Chinese team is Manchester United.

Manchester United have announced that Luke Shaw is experiencing calf muscle discomfort and is expected to be sidelined for three weeks.

【ah? ? 】

Tom is supposed to go back to China in January, right? What's going on?

[Young can play!] [Ashley Young didn't play well in the first few games of the season, did he?]

It's okay, Tom went back to China and Shaw got injured separately.

[Then let me ask you, how are we going to play Tottenham in January? Should we use Lingard? Or should you play?]

It's normal for fans to be pessimistic given the pressure of the league.

However, they only saw the negative news.

There's also some good news they don't know about!
After six months of treatment, Martial's chronic knee injury has greatly improved, and in the most recent training session, the Manchester United golden boy even outperformed Haller.

"That's amazing!"

Tang Ye was in a good mood.

There are still significant differences between Anthony and Sebastian.

Anthony Martial's forward runs are excellent, and if he returns to his best form, it will definitely be a good thing for Manchester United.

At least Manchester United will have new tactics to play when they play Bayern Munich again next month!
……

Marca's front-page headline: Barcelona's top management discussed the possibility of Messi leaving the club, which, if successful, would free up transfer fees and salary space for Tom.

"Barcelona received confirmation from Tom's agent that Tom is neutral regarding joining Barcelona. The club's management believes this will be beneficial for the team's future."

The Sun reports that Tom's FIFA ranking in England has dropped from 213th to 387th, with both his win rate and play frequency declining.

"My ranking dropped?"

That evening, while lying on the sofa watching TV with Rodri, Tang Ye realized that his game ranking had dropped so much.

"It's so uncomfortable, Rhodes."

Tang Ye felt somewhat aggrieved.

"Haha, let's bring the score back!"

Rhodes knew absolutely nothing about the game and thought that ranking high in England was something that was easy to improve.

This is absolutely wrong!
"never mind"

Tang Ye shook his head: "Let's leave it at that for now. I've been too busy lately. We'll talk about it later."

"Rhodes, do you have the contact information for a reporter from The Sun?"

Tang Ye suddenly asked a strange question.

No, why do you want this?

Rhodes crossed his legs.

"I want them to help me explain. It's not that I've gotten worse, it's just that I haven't been playing as much."

"..."

Rodri took a deep breath.

"Tom, go outside the apartment, take off your clothes, and run two laps. Then look around."

"You have sharp eyes; you should be able to spot their reporters without a doubt."

This……

Rhodes's words still make sense, as always.

However, it doesn't seem to be very practical?
……

"Tang Ye!"

"They gave it to me decisively!"

"Goal! Martial!"

"GOOO-AAAA-LLLLL!"

In his first match as a starter in October, Martial immediately demonstrated his outstanding competitive form.

A superb pass from Tang Ye completes the goal!
You have gained 10 comeback points.

Manchester United players gathered in a circle near the corner flag.

Everton paid the price for their missed penalty.

1-0, Manchester United take the lead!
"It feels like I can win easily."

Although the temperature was low, there was no wind, and Tang Ye was in a good mood due to the nice weather.

"Go up the full-backs, their counter-attacks aren't fast, just go up boldly!"

Ten Hag shouted from the sidelines, and fearing the players wouldn't notice, he also called on Van der Gach to join him.

Taking the lead and then intensifying the attack is not Manchester United's usual style.

But they really want to improve their goal difference, so there's nothing they can do about it.

It would be terrible if Manchester United lost the league title due to goal difference when they had the same number of points!

Tang Ye gave Teng Hah a thumbs up.

Although this tactic of having the full-backs push forward was designed by Ten Hag based on the team's actual situation, it seemed to be tailor-made for Tang Ye in practice.

Playing offensively is definitely more comfortable than playing defensively!
"..."

"Tang Ye, move into the penalty area!"

Tang Ye made a run that went completely unnoticed by the defenders and found an open space.

boom!
Rodri delivered a low pass, accurately finding Tang Ye's feet.

"Come!"

Tang Ye stepped on the ball and gestured for Ziyech to come up.

Ok?
Ziyech's mind went blank for a moment, but his body reacted quickly, unleashing a powerful shot.

Tang Ye's aim was perfect, and Ziyech's shot was also quite good.

The ball went in!
The score is now 2-0!

He was about to go out to celebrate, but suddenly remembered something and slowed down.

Wait a minute, Tang Ye!
Tang Ye put his hand on Ziyech's shoulder.

Okay, it's ready now!

Ziyech shouted out in celebration.

He was happy not just because of his goal, that was only a small part of it.

More importantly, what van der Gach said earlier was entirely correct.

He has mastered the survival rules of the Manchester United ecosystem!
Unbeknownst to Ziyech, Van der Gach was watching him with a smile.

"What's wrong?"

"Dennis asked."

"Ok?"

"Your smile doesn't look like a goal celebration."

Van der Gach shook his head: "Haha, maybe they're happy to see the team as a whole improving. Sometimes we really can't buy a strong enough team, but seeing the players improve is pretty good. A 10% or 20% improvement may not seem like much, but the difference in actual matches is still significant."

"Um……"

Dennis nodded: "Michelle, I feel you'd be a great fit as a youth coach."

"Haha, I started out as an excellent youth coach, responsible for data analysis."

Van der Gach reminisced about his past.

A wonderful youth training coach, watching young players grow up.

I wasn't under this much pressure back then!
Yes, but the pay is a bit low.

"By the way, what do you do for a living again?"

Van der Gach chewed his gum and looked at Dennis.

"Oh, I'm Tom's shooting coach."

"Oh, right, right, right"

It seems that because he hadn't seen Dennis on the training field for so long, Van der Gach couldn't remember some things very clearly.

The first half ended with a score of 2-0, and the game quickly moved into the second half!
Everton defender Zouma headed the ball into the Manchester United goal.

It looked like Everton were about to launch a counterattack, but in reality, Zouma's goal was offside.

"what……"

In the shot, Zuma flashed his big white teeth, and Tang Ye patted him on the shoulder.

"..."

"The bottom line has been reached."

"Are you letting Tang Ye cross the line so easily?"

"Although he wasn't playing as a winger, Tang Ye made it to the byline..."

"Hmm! Give it to me later."

"Martial!"

"The ball is in!"

……

PS: There will be one update before 12 o'clock tomorrow, and the next two updates will have to wait until tonight, because I don't have any drafts saved up yet.
