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

Chapter 574: The Cry from Manchester United Fans, Tom's Ballon d'Or (League Standings)

"Beautiful! Tang Ye!"

"This is Manchester United's third goal of the match, and Tang Ye's second goal!"

With the score at 3-1, the Manchester United fans reached the peak of their excitement.

[Awesome!!!]

【hat trick!】

Stop celebrating! Oh my god, stop celebrating! He's about to do a hat trick!

[How come it seems like you've gotten even stronger after the car accident? GGBond, you're so powerful!]

[The haters speak, the football urea speaks!]

"United! Man United!"

Arriving below the stands, Tang Ye spread his arms wide, as if to embrace all the fans in front of him.

"call……"

"Tang Ye scored two goals and provided one assist in the last match against Brighton. He then scored two more goals in this match against Sheffield United."

"Yes, since returning to the team in November, Tang Ye's performance has been virtually flawless."

boom!
Tang Ye collided with his teammates, letting out a roar typical of Manchester United players.

The CCTV commentary was alright, but the two commentators in the English broadcast didn't know what to say anymore.

From October until now, Tang Ye's performance is in a class of its own in the entire Premier League.

This made the English commentator realize a very serious problem.

"If possible, I think Tom will win the Premier League Player of the Year award for the third consecutive season... (in English)"

"Oh yes... but there's a condition: Tom can maintain this condition, at least for another 2-3 months."

"Are you sure? I feel like even if his form dips later, he'll still be the Player of the Year this season... (in English)"

The game is now in its 62th minute.

At this point, the score was still 3-1, and Manchester United completely controlled the game against newly promoted Sheffield United.

Manchester United had a problem: their possession rate was generally low.

However, this problem has been alleviated this season, and at least in this match, Manchester United had a higher possession rate than their opponents.

Snapped!
A long pass was sent to the frontcourt, and Martial strode forward.

This could very well be a one-on-one opportunity, so Martial must unleash his full speed.

Get around the defender!

Martial tried to use a feint to shake off his opponent, but failed.

Depend on!
Ten Hag clutched his head, thinking his one-on-one chance was over, but Martial still managed to dribble into the penalty area.

The defender was right next to him, but from God's perspective, Martial had a good shooting angle.

Let's make some adjustments...

Swing your leg!

Just as Martial swung his leg to shoot, the center-back in the penalty area bumped into him.

Both players fell to the ground at the same time, and the goalkeeper stood still.

"Hey! No, no!"

"That's a dive! That's a dive!"

Sheffield United players ran toward the referee.

The situation is somewhat urgent.

There are only two possibilities now: either Martial dived, or Martial was fouled in the penalty area and fell to the ground.

In the first scenario, Manchester United would receive a yellow card, but from an omniscient perspective, this is most likely not Martial's fault.

What about the second scenario...?

Penalty! Penalty!!!

"The referee has blown the whistle! This is a penalty opportunity for Manchester United!"

Wow!!!

"Beep beep beep!!!!!"

The home team fans were ecstatic, while Manchester United fans made no attempt to hide their joy.

Dongqiudi live match report: In the 64th minute, Martial broke into the penalty area on a one-on-one and was fouled and fell to the ground. With Manchester United leading 3-1, they were awarded a penalty.

"Manchester United's penalty opportunity is about to be handed to Tang Ye..."

In the footage, Rashford bounces the ball off the ground and then hands it to Tang Ye.

"Keep it up," Rashford said softly.

Snapped!
Tang Ye gave Rashford a high five and prepared himself.

With a hat trick just around the corner, GGBond definitely need to give it their all when faced with such an opportunity!
Just moments before Tang Ye stepped into the penalty area, Rodri leaned in, his mouth close to Tang Ye's: "Attack the left."

"Well?"

Rod seems to know the opposing goalkeeper very well.

Tang Ye nodded slightly and went directly into the restricted area without asking why.

"Beep beep beep!!!"

"Tang Ye is ready, the referee is confirming with the goalkeeper!"

"If Tang Ye scores this goal, he will get his first hat-trick of the season..."

"Beep!"

"approach……"

"Break the door!"

"Goal! Goal!"

"A hat trick! Tang Ye's hat trick!"

"4:1!"

According to Rodri, Tang Ye played on the left and, unsurprisingly, scored directly.

[Hat trick, you gain an additional 60 comeback points]

boom!
Swish swish! ! !
Three stripes were torn across the grass. Tang Ye stood up and turned to face Dembele.

"Tom!!!"

Dembele and Tang Ye collided.

"Ha ha!"

[Awesome!!!]

【Tang Ball King】

Honestly, guys, this is better than Messi and Van Dijk combined.

Boom!

Bang bang bang!
Manchester United celebrated wildly for Tang Ye's hat-trick goal.

boom!
A plastic water bottle flew down from the stands and hit Tang Ye squarely in the butt.

"Fuck you..."

Tang Ye turned his head, kicked the mineral water bottle off the ground, and began searching for the suspect in the stands.

"Hey, Tom, never mind!"

Rodri grabbed Tang Ye, then ran to Tang Ye and stopped him from kicking the water bottle away: "Don't do that, let it go for now, let it go for now!"

Tang Ye had previously kicked an empty water bottle back into the stands, for which he received a yellow card and was even discussed by many fans after the match.

To be honest, it's a huge loss to have gotten into so much trouble with just one kick.

"call……"

Tang Ye waved his hands dismissively: "Actually, I just wanted to scare them, Rhodes."

Rhodes underestimated Tang Ye. For Tang Ye, this kind of anger could be easily quelled.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tang Ye rushed out with a mineral water bottle, mimicking a goalkeeper kicking a long ball.

Tang Ye did throw his leg out, but he didn't throw the mineral water bottle he was holding.

"Oh!"

Many fans in the stands were startled.

"Ha ha!"

"xuuu!!!"

The game is now in its 75th minute.

This is a classic time; fans who frequently watch Manchester United matches are already browsing the schedule.

Manchester United will play Shakhtar Donetsk in three days.

So, barring any unforeseen circumstances...

"Manchester United have made a substitution! Amrabat replaces Tang Ye, and Dembele is also substituted. Lingard comes on."

"..."

"Beep, beep beep beep!!!"

"Alright, everyone, the match is over. The final score is 4-1."

"In the 13th round of the Premier League, Manchester United secured their 12th victory, making them the team with the most wins in the league so far."

Yes, Manchester United and Liverpool both have 12 wins.

Besides the team as a whole, Tang Ye's performance in this match has almost secured him the Premier League Player of the Month award for November.

"Frankie" came down from the bench and high-fived his teammates who had played the entire game.

As is customary, Tang Ye was about to return directly to the locker room, but after being reminded by Van der Gach, he ran back with De Jong.

The press room isn't ready yet, so Manchester United will start with their thank-you ceremony first.

"Such a thing is true..."

Tang Ye pinched his chin with one hand, pondering why the press conference room wasn't prepared.

"Stop thinking about this, let's get going."

Van der Gach shoved Tang Ye and pointed at the Manchester United fans in the away stands.

Although the distance was relatively far, Tang Ye could already hear the Manchester United fans chanting his name.

"Ha ha!"

After running backwards a few steps to say goodbye to Van der Gaël, Tang Ye quickly arrived at the bottom of the away team's stands.

"Tom, jersey, jersey!"

The fans shouted loudly.

Tang Ye wanted to take off his clothes, but hesitated.

It's already December, and the weather in England is very cold.

There happened to be a Manchester United staff member nearby, so Tang Ye asked the staff member to help him get a jacket, and then took off his jersey.

"Come"

Wow!!!

"I want it! Give it to me, give it to me!"

"Don't give it to him, give it to me, give me Tom! I'll give you my son!"

Ok?
As he spoke, a bald man handed over the child he was holding.

"This……"

Tang Ye was a little confused, so he gave the jersey to the bald uncle.

Then the child was taken from the uncle's hands.

The child looked to be about four or five years old and had golden hair.

This is the same as Tang Ye's original hair color, but Tang Ye dyed it once and then never did it again. Now his hair has returned to its original black color.

"Brother... hello"

Tang Ye wasn't very good at dealing with children, but luckily this guy didn't cry when Tang Ye held him.

Under Tang Ye's observation, the little boy slowly frowned.

Done!

Are you going to cry?
Realizing something was wrong, Tang Ye grabbed the boy by the armpits with both hands and lifted him up.

"Ha ha!"

This was a "Zha Hu" (a type of auspicious hand gesture) from Tang Ye, and it worked very well. The boy stopped crying immediately and started laughing happily.

"Tang Ye!"

"Tang Ye!"

Tang Ye tossed the little boy around like a trophy, then handed him to a teammate: "Be careful of Rod, he might cry."

Rhodes is too strong; it wouldn't be good if he accidentally hurt the boy, so Tang Ye had to remind him.

"Oh, don't worry."

Rodri took the child from Tang Yezhe, who brought Dembélé to applaud the fans and thank them for their support from afar.

"Tom Golden Ball!"

It's unclear who started it, but thousands of fans in the away team's stands reached a consensus.

"Tom Golden Ball!"

"Tom Golden Ball!"

"Tom Golden Ball!"

hiss……

Tang Ye stood on the grass, not daring to say a word for a long time.

It was only when fans reminded him that he realized there were less than 10 days left until the official announcement of the Ballon d'Or rankings.

When there were still 40 days left, Tang Ye felt it was a long time, but now it really is not far away.

"Tom Golden Ball!"

"Ole~Ole Ole Ole Ole Ola..."

"Tom Golden Ball!"

Boom!

Bang bang bang!
"Golden Ball!"

"Golden Ball!"

Ten Hah walked up from behind and tugged at Tang Ye's arm: "Why aren't you saying anything?"

"Oh... I don't know what to say."

Tang Ye is under a lot of pressure.

It feels like before the results are released, the whole class shouts that you're number one, but you don't actually know your ranking.

Doing it this way creates a lot of pressure.

What if I don't get first place in the end?
"Ha ha"

Ten Hach pushed Tang Ye forward a step, signaling the latter to continue clapping.

Dongqiudi Match Report: Tang Ye scores a hat-trick! Manchester United defeats Sheffield United 4-1 away, maintaining a perfect record in English domestic competitions in November. (82153 comments)

Sheffield United isn't exactly a strong team, but the words "Tang Ye's hat-trick" were just too captivating, resulting in even more comments in the match report's comment section than when they played in the Champions League.

Manchester Evening News – During the post-match thank-you segment, Manchester United fans chanted "TY Golden Ball".

Manchester Evening News – After the match, Manchester United players gave out autographs to fans around the stadium for 20 minutes.

To be honest, if Tang Ye doesn't get the Golden Globe, I'll immediately say it's a rigged award.

Messi fans say they're rooting for Tang Ye this year.

[Since he doesn't have the Champions League title, I feel Messi has a slightly higher chance?]

It's not like you have to win the Champions League to win the Ballon d'Or. Otherwise, just give it to Van Dijk. Can Van Dijk's performance compare to Tang Ye's? But I think Van Dijk is ranked higher than Messi.

[I'm still with Messi, my 6th Ballon d'Or!]

The Guardian's front-page headline: 19-20 Premier League season standings, Manchester United leads the battle between the two Reds, Manchester City falls behind.

Attached is the 2019-2020 Premier League standings (as of the end of Round 13):

1. Manchester United, 37 points.

2. Liverpool, 36 points.

3. Manchester City, 31 points.

4. Chelsea, 25 points.

5. Leicester City, 22 points.

The famous manager Erik ten Hag once said that no team can dominate the Premier League forever. And this statement has now come true once again.

As the champions of the 1718 season and a participant in the 1819 season's "Three Kingdoms Romance," it's truly unbelievable that Manchester City has fallen behind this season.

Of course, what some fans may not know is that a points total like Manchester City's is actually the norm. Winning the league title with 80+ points but less than 90 points in 38 rounds is how the Premier League has always been in previous seasons.

But starting from the 1718 season, the Premier League became a bit strange.

If you only get 80 points in 38 rounds, then you are destined to miss out on the Premier League title.

France Football cover – Voting for the 2019 Ballon d'Or has officially ended.

Dongqiudi (a Chinese sports betting platform) pinned post: Less than 10 days until the Ballon d'Or rankings are announced. New fans, please read on for the Ballon d'Or details.

This year's Ballon d'Or race involves Chinese people, so platforms like Dongqiudi, Weibo, and Baidu Tieba have paid close attention to it, even creating dedicated discussion forums with introductions to the Ballon d'Or voting process.

The content on the three websites is actually quite similar, but considering that Dongqiudi is a professional football app, it is easier to gain trust.

According to staff at Dongqiudi, the Ballon d'Or selection is mainly determined by the following factors.

1、全年综合表现（从1月1日开始到11月27日截止）。

2. Team honors (won several championships).

3. Individual statistics (hard metrics such as goals and assists, including individual performance, creating attacking opportunities, and successful interceptions)

4. Field influence (whether one can carry the team in crucial moments).

5. International reputation (one of the factors, but with little impact).

6. Professional conduct (field etiquette, number of red and yellow cards).

There are a total of 6 factors, ranked from most important to least important. The influence of the last two factors can be ignored for now, so the first 4 are the most important.

In addition to the selection factors, Dongqiudi also provided specific data on the top three players in the odds.

Tang Ye (first in odds): 29 goals and 52 assists throughout the year, with an average rating of 8.52 (Premier League champion, FA Cup champion, Asian Cup champion).

Van Dijk (second in odds): 2 times dribbled past and cleared 272 times throughout the year, with an average rating of 7.87 (Champions League winner).

Messi (third in odds): 51 goals and 21 assists throughout the year, with an average rating of 8.26 (La Liga champion, Copa del Rey champion).
