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

Chapter 458 Sterling's timely goal, GGBond's heroic sacrifice.
Dongqiudi pinned post: The Manchester derby is in progress, with the current score 1-2 Manchester City trailing at home.

"Sané!"

"Hmm, Sane immediately made use of his speed advantage as soon as he came on."

"Give me a break!"

A precise pass found Mendy.

Control the ball with the chest.

A powerful volley!

Manchester City players were playing a bit too hastily, and Mendy's shot sent the ball flying into the stands.

"Come on City!"

Boom!

"Come on City!"

Bang bang bang!
Although they didn't manage a shot on target, Manchester City's possession increased by a few points after Guardiola made the substitution.

Fans watching the game now have a feeling that Manchester City could equalize the score at any moment.

After 75 minutes, the players not only didn't get tired, but they played even more aggressively!
"Depend on!"

Tang Ye stood on the grass, panting.

He now understands why Manchester City has such a high winning percentage.

They responded really quickly after falling behind!

Take a look at the big screen at the scene.

The thought of having to hold on for another 15 minutes to secure victory gave Tang Ye a headache.

He pulled Doraemon's Time Machine out of his pocket and fast-forwarded 15 minutes!

Good idea, but GGBond can't do it.

His pockets couldn't hold something as big as a time machine.

……

The time has reached 85 minutes.

“Ole Ole Ole～”

“Ole Ole~”

In the past 10 minutes, Manchester City has had a total of 5 shots, while Manchester United has only had one long-range shot by Tang Ye that went wide.

Manchester United have now switched to a five-man defense, but they still feel a lot of pressure.

Aguero!
Receive the ball at the top of the penalty arc.

They tried to enter the restricted area but were stopped.

Smash the door!

Snapped!
Aguero's shot hit Bailly.

At this point, the broadcaster provided possession statistics for both sides.

MCI: 82%.

MUN: 18%.

Manchester United have had virtually no possession in the last 15 minutes.

Fortunately, it finally came down to injury time.

"The stoppage time is... 3 minutes!"

"This amount of added time is reasonable, but it might not be good news for Manchester City."

Guardiola is complaining to the fourth official, demanding more stoppage time.

But the referee ignored him!
"I'm going to the sideline! I'm going to the sideline!"

Tang Ye and Rodri switched positions, but just a second after they completed the switch, Manchester City launched a penetrating attack from another direction.

The distance was a bit far, and Tang Ye could only watch helplessly as the ball rushed towards his team's baseline.

They gave them Sané!
"City!"

"Como on City!"

Sane makes a powerful run and receives the ball near the byline!

Send it directly to the back node!
Sterling chested the ball down, twisted his hips, and suddenly accelerated to cut inside.

Manchester City's winger has a great ability to change the pace of the game.

Shot into the far corner!

De Gea leaped out, but Sterling's shot grazed De Gea's hand and went in.

"!!!"

“GOOO—AAAA—LLLL!!!”

"Oh my gosh!"

"It's Sterling!"

"2:2!"

At that moment, the Etihad Stadium erupted as if it had suddenly exploded, with home fans shouting the team's name and Sterling's name.

In the first minute of the three minutes of stoppage time, Manchester City scored a last-minute equalizer!

Sterling slid off on his knees.

"call……"

He had been relying on his heightened mental state to make up for his depleted physical strength, but now that the opponent had scored the equalizer, Tang Ye's legs went weak and he squatted down.

He braced himself on the grass with both hands.

He didn't want to look up at the Manchester City players who were celebrating!

"Blue moon~"

"now im lo longer alone～"

"without a dream in my heart~"

"..."

Ten Hah reached out and touched his head.

After nearly 30 minutes of worry, Manchester City unexpectedly scored the equalizer in the final moments.

"Rhodes"

Rodri walked over, and Tang Ye squatted down, looking up at his teammate.

Rodri didn't speak, but bent down and placed his hand on Tang Ye's shoulder.

"Beep, beep beep!!!"

The match ended with Manchester City securing a 2-2 draw at home against Manchester United.

The two teams currently have the same number of points, but Manchester City has a better goal difference, so they are temporarily in first place.

Of course, Liverpool haven't played their 12th round match yet, and if Liverpool wins, Manchester City will drop to second place.

But at least they withstood Manchester United's attack, which is a stroke of good luck for Manchester City.

"fuck..."

Tang Ye walked into the players' tunnel with his head down, his cleats scraping the grass.

The locker room was quiet, with only the sounds of the players tidying up their belongings.

There are no losers in a draw, but the Manchester United players felt like they were the losers in this match.

After Martial scored, Manchester United played with the mindset that they had already secured 3 points, but Sterling scored a last-minute equalizer, so it's understandable that they feel disappointed now.

"Damn, they should have substituted me at the 80-minute mark."

Tang Ye said in a low voice, "I wasn't really contributing much defensively after that."

"No, if you take them off, they won't have to worry about defense; in fact, their attacking frequency will become even more exaggerated."

Van der Gach pointed out Tang Ye's mistake.

Tang Ye had no choice but to sit in his seat and remain silent.

The staff brought news that Tang Ye had won the Best Player award with an official rating of 8.2.

"I'm convinced"

Tang Ye shrugged, feeling a little annoyed. Losing two points made the MVP trophy seem less meaningful.

He said that, but he still went to accept the award in the end.

……

"I think we were going to win; we were playing with a lot of confidence when it was 2-1. But... we didn't expect Manchester City's counter-attacks to be so effective."

There were many reporters in the interview area, and the camera flashes reflected off Tang Ye's MVP trophy.

The reporter asked Tang Ye many questions, such as what his thought process was when he made those two passes.

Tang Ye tilted his head, his eyes vacant, and answered the reporter's questions truthfully.

The reporter then changed the subject.

"On the way to the stadium, you were racing Manchester City, and the police stopped you both. Your bus driver..."

Tang Ye suddenly raised his head: "What's wrong with him?"

The reporter was surprised by Tang Ye's sudden outburst, so he continued speaking.

"Based on the description, he seemed a bit agitated when he saw the Manchester City bus, because your driver is a staunch opponent of Manchester City, and he's already giving a statement at the police station... So, Tom, you weren't hurt, were you?"

Both sides played quite well in this match; it didn't seem like they had just finished a high-speed battle. But the reporter felt it was still necessary to ask.

Because interviews and news about pre-race racing are sure to attract widespread attention from fans!
So, what kind of punishment will he receive?

Perhaps because he was distracted and didn't hear, Tang Ye didn't answer the reporter's question, but instead posed one himself.

"Hmm... it should be a fine plus points deduction, but considering the circumstances at the time, even more severe penalties are possible."

The bus drivers from Manchester United and Manchester City are truly ruthless for daring to speed under police supervision.

Unfortunately, we live in a society governed by the rule of law, and ruthless people will be punished by the police.

Tang Ye's eyes widened: "A harsher punishment? That shouldn't be the case. Well, actually, our two cars were initially together, Manchester was right next to us, and we were going about the same speed, neither of us was going fast. Then I wanted to overtake them, so I yelled at our driver."

"Then, well, then our driver suddenly accelerated."

reporter:?

The scene suddenly fell silent for a moment, followed by a deluge of camera shutter clicks.

GGBond!

So you're one of those ruthless people too!

Dongqiudi Match Report: Manchester derby ends 2-2 at home for Manchester City, Manchester United defend their top spot, Sterling snatches a draw. (43214 comments)

Reprint: Tang Ye said in a post-match interview that the speeding incident was related to him, and that the Manchester United bus driver was influenced by him, which is why he decided to step on the gas and accelerate.

What a pity!

No, it turns out my GGBonds are delinquents!

I can already picture Tang Qiuwang raising one hand and shouting "Overtake!"

[Won't this get me locked up? What's the point of Manchester United playing then?]

Wow, that's really loyal! They weren't holding back.

Fans were clearly surprised that Tang Ye was involved in the incident.

After dealing with Dutch and Russian police, poor GGBond has now run into British police.

Sports Weekly's front-page headline: The Three Kingdoms continue! Liverpool's defeat to Tottenham ends the 12-round season, failing to climb to the top spot; the gap between the first and third place in the Premier League is only 1 point.

Attached is the Premier League standings (as of Round 12):

1. Manchester City, 30 points.

2. Manchester United, 30 points.

3. Liverpool, 29 points.

4. Chelsea, 23 points.

5. Tottenham Hotspur, 23 points.

It's the same familiar scene: Manchester City, Manchester United, and Liverpool, the three strongest Premier League teams this season continue their unfinished three-way rivalry.

It's a pity Liverpool didn't draw with Tottenham, otherwise the league table would have seen three dramatic 30-point games.

"Actually, I think it's quite a pity we lost."

After the match, several Manchester United fans outside the Etihad Stadium were interviewed by reporters.

"But this isn't the last Manchester derby of the season. We'll face Manchester City again next year, and that match will be at Old Trafford. Manchester City won't take a single point from Old Trafford."

Manchester United fans spoke with unwavering conviction.

……

It's really tough to be tied by a last-minute equalizer; I bet some Manchester United fans are having trouble sleeping right now.

But now, the standings are no longer the most important issue.

The most important question is, what kind of punishment will GGBond receive for instigating the driver to sprint?
The Sun's front-page headline—in a post-match interview, Tom revealed that he is currently giving a statement at Manchester Police Station. According to regulations, Tom may be reprimanded by police officers and fined a certain percentage of his salary.

The Sun reporters once again demonstrated their professionalism, with a headline accompanied by a candid photo of Tang Ye following police officers into the police station.

In the photo, Tang Ye is dressed in white casual clothes, and his expression gives the impression that he is about to die a heroic death.

The staff at Dongqiudi directly changed the background of the photo to gray, focusing attention on Tang Ye's expression.

Then the caption reads: "The brave warrior departs, never to return?"
【woo woo woo】

[Don't shut it down, damn it! What's the point of playing the rest of the league?]

Guys, I just checked, Manchester United's next game is in 10 days.

[Oh? Quickly lock him up for two days and help me kick my internet addiction!]

[I need help from the British police. My son GGBond has been addicted to games since he was little. Can you see if you can help him?]

Those despicable fans actually wanted GGBond locked up by the police.

Of course, their evil schemes will not succeed!

"If they really want to lock me up, can you get me out?"

Tang Ye said to the lawyer next to him.

This lawyer was found for him by Paul.

"Um... don't worry, sir, you'll be fine."

"Wow"

Tang Ye nodded slightly.

When I called, Paul said that this lawyer was very capable, and now it seems that he really is.

"Okay, then, when you're ready to take me away, just let me know in advance. I'll try my best to cooperate, so neither of us will get caught and brought back."

"..."

The lawyer's lips twitched: "Sir, what I meant was that your mistake doesn't require detention; you only need to pay a fine."

That's very good.

Tang Ye's eyes lit up: "Will our driver be in trouble? He's a very nice person. Actually, it was mainly because I shouted at him that he wouldn't have stepped on the gas."

……

The Sun reports that Tom and the Manchester United bus driver have been fined £4.7 and £340 respectively, and the bus driver is banned from driving any vehicle for the next month.

"Unfortunately, Manchester United will need to find a new team bus driver for the next month."

Tang Yeyi surrendered himself to the police, which seemed like he was giving money to the local police station, and in fact he was.

However, it wasn't entirely ineffective; Tang Ye's words proved that the driver himself had no intention of framing the player.

In the end, Tang Ye's payment of a £4.7 fine saved the Manchester United driver from possible detention.

Meanwhile, the Manchester City driver's fine was reduced by £80.

It feels like I'm losing out, but it's Tom's money.

If Tom thinks this is a profit, then it is a profit.

Repost: Tom posted a photo on social media of himself and the bus driver after leaving the police station, which was liked by Manchester United players.

……

After being driven back to his apartment by his lawyer, Tang Ye saw Ten Hach and Rodri waiting downstairs.

"We were going to pick you up, but you came out faster than we expected."

Ten Hag and Rodri walked over together.

Tang Ye got out of the car and patted off non-existent dust from his coat.

"It's all settled. I thought I was going to be locked up, it scared me to death!"

"Sir, you can't be locked up."

The lawyer standing nearby offered a reminder.

"Oh, that's what everyone's saying online."

Tang Ye took out his phone and opened Twitter.

He's been sentenced to death 100 times by fans in the Twitter comments section.

These people are probably Liverpool fans, those despicable guys!

Of course, not everyone is so bad. Some people don't want to see GGBond leave this world, so they just hope he can be sentenced to life imprisonment.

"cough cough"

The lawyer couldn't help but laugh: "Sorry, sorry, I'm a professional, I wouldn't be making fun of you."

But you just laughed!

Tang Ye stared wide-eyed.

That was a mistake.

“So that’s how it is”

Tang Ye nodded slightly.

Even the most professional people make mistakes, just like top football players slip on the field. Even a shrewd lawyer can't help but laugh at poor Tom. These are all understandable.

Thank you, sir. See you next time.

"Oh, no, um... hiss."

Not knowing what to say, Tang Ye and the lawyer bumped fists.

PS: There will be 2-3 more updates today.
