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

Chapter 530 FA Cup Semi-Final: Wembley Stadium vs. Watford
The front page headline of the China Football News reported that the Asian Football Confederation urged Tang Ye to pay the fine for the Asian Cup final, but the player refused, citing "financial difficulties."

【Economic Difficulties】

[You really don't want to pay this money? I wouldn't pay it either.]

The quotation marks around "economic difficulties"—the Football News is really good at creating a TV show effect!

What should I do? I'm broke on GGBond. What can I do?

[How about this, I suggest changing the fine to five dollars, I'll pay it for Tang Ye.]

More than two months have passed since the Asian Cup final, but Tang Ye has still not paid his fine.

Fans thought Tang Ye might have forgotten about the fine because he hadn't paid it before, since a fine of tens of thousands of dollars wasn't much money for him.

But if he still doesn't pay, then he really doesn't want to pay.

Besides the China Football News, other newspapers have also published analyses of why Tang Ye refused to pay the fine.

For professional players, the most unacceptable consequence is being suspended from competition.

However, Tang Ye had no need to worry about this.

Because the national team will not have any matches requiring him to participate for the next year.

You want to punish GGBond, that's fine.

However, my GGBond has an evasion attribute, so I can't select it.

……

Premier League official: Manchester United midfielder Tang Ye is the Premier League Player of the Month for March.

Metro – Manchester United players have arrived in London and will face Watford at Wembley Stadium on the afternoon of April 7.

In addition to the news of Manchester United players arriving in London, The Metro thoughtfully included a photo of the players emerging from the train station.

In the photo, Ten Hach and Van der Gach are chatting, while Tang Ye is squatting on the ground tying his shoelaces, with Alai helping him carry his things in front of him.

Judging from the photos, the Manchester United players are all in pretty good form.

The intense schedule has just begun, and Tang Ye and others are still able to adapt.

It remains to be seen whether Manchester United players can maintain this form once the Champions League begins.
Premier League Player of the Month

Tang Ye had just stood up when Rashford walked over and showed Tang Ye his phone screen.

Just now, the Premier League officially announced on its website that Tang Ye has won the League Player of the Month award for March, and also synchronized the announcement on Twitter and Instagram.

"Hmm... I guess I'll have to wait until about a week to receive the award."

"I remember the next Premier League match is... West Ham United, right? It's scheduled after the Champions League."

Tang Ye didn't seem surprised by his award, and even Rashford didn't see much surprise in his eyes.

Did you know in advance?

"What do you need to know in advance?"

"This is it. Oh, wait, no."

Realizing that Tang Ye frequently won the Best Player award, Rashford gently shook his head.

It seems that for Tang Ye, this kind of award is indeed not worth celebrating.

As Rashford put his phone back in his pocket, he suddenly asked, "How many times have you won Player of the Month?"

"5 times...or 6 times?"

Tang Ye tilted his head, deep in thought.

To be honest, he doesn't remember much either.

However, he would take a picture and post it on Instagram every time he won an award. If you want to know the exact number of times he has won an award, you can just look through his Instagram tweets.

"More than 6 times"

Rodri stated with great certainty, "I feel like it's been at least 10 times. I think Tom has been the Player of the Month every month."

"Hey Rhodes, you're exaggerating."

Tang Ye shrugged: "How could there be 10 times? The Player of the Month award in January wasn't mine. I wasn't even in England in January."

"Ha ha!"

Rhodesley swung his arms around: "Okay, okay, then it won't be 10 times, but it'll definitely be more than 6 times, I promise you. Hmm... maybe 8 or 9 times."

"That's not eight or nine times..."

Tang Ye was lost in his memories.

I wanted to scroll through my Instagram history, but then I thought it was too much trouble.

"Definitely, I feel like it should be at least 8 times."

"No, no, no, Rhodes, you have to believe me."

Tang Ye and Rodri argued about this matter.

"I'm telling you, Rod definitely didn't do it eight times, seven at most. If I'm wrong, may I eat shit like Yang."

Hey!

Ashley Young suddenly turned his head from afar: "What are you talking about!"

"Haha! Tom said he wants to eat like you..."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Tang Ye covered Rodri's mouth with his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, I just said I wanted to eat the same thing as you."

What is the same thing?

"Forehead……"

"Yes!"

Rodri wanted to continue speaking, but Tang Ye stopped him once again.

"It's nothing, nothing at all, nothing worth mentioning."

Ashley turned his head away, and Tang Ye then removed his hand from Rhodes' mouth.

"Haha, Tom!"

"Just say you want to eat shit!"

"I'm innocent, I'm sure I didn't say anything wrong, don't worry Rhodes, I definitely won't have to eat shit."

……

Time quickly passed to the 2th day.

Today is the FA Cup semi-final, the day of the match between Manchester United and Watford.

From the semi-finals onwards, all matches will be played at Wembley Stadium.

The stadium is now packed with fans from both sides, and Sky Sports reporters conducted their usual interviews.

"Manchester City beat Tottenham yesterday to advance to the FA Cup final. If Manchester United also advances, they will meet in the final. Do you think Manchester United can beat Watford today?"

The interviewee was a Manchester United fan, so his answer was quite affirmative.

"Of course, definitely."

"absolute!"

The following sentence did not come from the interviewed fan, but from a guy wearing a Piggy Hero costume who was passing by.

"Ha ha!"

The fans high-fived Piggy Hero and then shouted the same phrase together.

"viva GGBond!"

"You seem to have a lot of faith in your team, and also in Tom, so you think Manchester United will definitely win. Is that what you're thinking in the semi-finals?"

"Yes, of course. We will always believe in Tom. He is the best player in the world right now, bar none."

The fans seemed a bit overconfident, and the reporter reminded them of the presence of Ronaldo and Messi.

"I'm a Ronaldo fan, but you have to admit that Ronaldo and Messi are declining little by little, which is a phase that every professional player has to go through."

The fan extended all five fingers of his right hand.

“5年，5年之后他们就快40岁了，但5年之后的Tom才25岁”

"Tom hasn't even reached his peak yet. I believe Manchester United will have completed its revival by the time he's 25. Because, as you know, 25 to 30 is when a footballer is at his best."

Judging from what the interviewed fan said, he has indeed been watching football for some time.

This guy is extremely experienced!

"So your plan is that when Tom is 25, which is... well, 2024? Manchester United will be fully revitalized by then, is that right?"

"Yes, yeah, that's how I feel anyway."

The fans shrugged.

He seems very confident in his proposed five-year plan, just as he believes in Manchester United's current strength.

……

"The guys won! This is the final match."

The match is about to begin, and in the locker room, captain Valencia is giving the players a final pep talk.

"Having come this far, there's no reason for us to back down. We need the FA Cup. We won it once last season, so this season will be our second—a back-to-back!" "Our opponents today aren't strong, but we must remain vigilant."

As Valencia said, now that they've reached the semi-finals, Manchester United can't afford any mistakes.

"3, 2, 1..."

Tang Ye was in charge of cheering, but when he got to the number one, he didn't shout "Go China!" right away; instead, he paused for a moment.

Ok?
The players' eyes were fixed on Tang Ye's face.

hiss--!
call--

Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.

"United!"

"United!"

……

"Okay, guys, welcome to my live stream!"

"Don't ask me if there's a clearer picture anymore. I searched for this live stream source for half an hour, and it's absolutely the clearest on the entire platform, bar none."

"What if it's not the clearest... Can you guys stop being so picky? We're professional fans, professional fans look at technique, not resolution."

"While I, Tang the Football King, am handsome, you're treating me like I'm a movie star. Am I a movie star? Of course not, I'm a damn superstar. Isn't a superstar a level above any movie star?"

Before this match was broadcast live, anchor Wang Chao had already broadcast it once, but every time a Manchester United match was about to start, a large number of new fans would flood into the live broadcast room.

At this point, Wang Chao would pretend that he had just started the live stream and repeat his opening remarks to the viewers in the live stream room.

Of course, arguing is inevitable.

Last time, following Wang Chao's advice, I bet on the Australian league. More than half of the people in the live stream lost a lot of money and are still angry.

"The match has begun. Let me first introduce the starting lineups for both sides. By the way, today's match is at Wembley Stadium, the one in London."

"Why isn't Luke Shaw playing... Luke Shaw's recovery has encountered some difficulties. I saw in the news that Luke Shaw is almost fully recovered, but athletes are different from ordinary people, guys. You have to find your competitive form before you can play, otherwise what are you going to do? Let your teammates down?"

"You guys do the math. Luke Shaw will recover around the end of the month, so he won't be able to play until at least May."

"Wow... Damn, the league is almost over in May..."

To be honest, Luke Shaw's absence will indeed have some impact on Manchester United, but the impact is not as big as fans imagine.

At least against a team like Watford, Luke Shaw's presence or absence doesn't really make much difference.

The 11th minute of the game.

Manchester United made a mistake in their own half, but Watford failed to capitalize on the opportunity.

The striker's shot slammed heavily against the crossbar.

Pop up!
"Go up!"

De Gea shouted for Rodri and Bailly to rush forward and try to win the ball before the Watford players could.

But Watford players beat them to it!
Adjust your shot!
boom!
"Haha, getting anxious!"

Watford striker's shot hits Bailly.

"Brother, I gave you a chance, but you didn't use it."

"Rodri has the ball!"

"Give it to De Jong!"

"A truly classic combination, with De Jong dribbling forward once again!"

"Let's first check Tang Ye's location..."

"Sigh, where is Tang Yeren?"

Tang Ye was not visible in the shot because he was running along the left side of the road.

He's currently playing a position similar to left-back, pushing forward alongside Rashford.

To help De Jong advance, Tang Ye signaled for Rashford to move to the center.

Rashford acted as a wingman, drawing away defenders.

De Jong successfully passed the ball to Haller!

Ale gave it to Greenwood again!

"Down to the bottom! Down to the bottom!"

As soon as Greenwood received the ball, his teammates quickly gave him instructions.

However, Greenwood had a very creative idea. He felt there was an opportunity in the middle lane, so he simply started cutting inside.

Slowly move towards the middle.

Find an opportunity!

Snapped!
A long pass was sent out to Rashford on the left flank.

Rashford chested the ball down and passed it to Tang Ye.

Standing in his position, Tang Ye appeared very relaxed. He lifted his foot and tapped the ball with his heel to Ashley Young, who was running up behind him.

"Wow, a master is a master!"

Wang Chao couldn't help but marvel at Tang Ye's effortless movements.

Ashley Young suddenly accelerated forward after receiving the ball.

Snapped!
Give it to Greenwood again!

"Draw it directly!"

"Awesome Greenwood! Goal!"

"Greenwood!"

Manchester United scored directly in less than 15 minutes.

"What do you guys think? Didn't I tell you this game was definitely going to be a high-scoring affair?"

"What kind of team is Manchester United? What kind of team is Watford? They're not even in the same league."

"..."

Greenwood's goal immediately boosted Manchester United's morale.

The second goal came very quickly, five minutes later.

Valencia wins a corner kick.

Find Alai at the first location.

Ale gave it to Smolin!
Snapped!
In a very easy passing sequence, Smalling successfully blasted open the Watford goal.

The score is now 2-0!

"Nice!!!"

Manchester United players rushed out and embraced each other below the stands.

Today was a neutral stadium, but because Watford didn't have many fans in attendance, most of the stands were still occupied by Manchester United fans.

Watford will not only be dominated by Manchester United players, but also by Manchester United fans.

"..."

Dongqiudi live match report: In the 51st minute of the second half, Ziyech came on as a substitute and scored, giving Manchester United a 4-1 lead over Watford.

"Wow!"

Tang Ye and Ziyech jumped up at the same time, their buttocks bumping together, and then the Manchester United players made a very classic fishing celebration.

As the goal scorer, Ziyech caught a big fish today...

GG Fish!
Master fish, belonging to the family Porculopidae, genus Porculopidae, species GG!
"Wow!"

Ziyech held Tang Ye in his arms, but they lost their balance and both fell to the ground.

"Oh, shit!"

Wang Chao was very happy in the live broadcast room, just like a son seeing his father's success.

But his excitement didn't last long.

In the 61st minute of the match, with a 4-1 lead, Ten Hag removed Tang Ye from the field.

The match has reached this point, and the result is already decided.

Manchester United will be preparing for their next Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain.

"Tom!"

"Tom!"

"viva TomTom!"

The chant of "Long live Tom!" resounded once again at Wembley Stadium. Tang Ye slowly walked towards the bench, raising his hands above his head and clapping along with the fans.

"Ha ha"

Tang Ye and Ten Hag embraced: "We're in the final, Mr. Eric!"
