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

Chapter 63: The Big Three of Eredivisie, Ajax!

On December 12, in the 6th round of the Eredivisie, Utrecht played against Graafschap away. Thanks to Ramselaar's long-range shot, Utrecht defeated the opponent with a score of 15:1.

Because of the victory in this game, the Utrecht players' frustration was swept away.

"Wuhu!"

In the locker room, Tang Ye, Amrabat and Barazit hugged each other shoulder to shoulder.

"Tang, you didn't score a goal today!"

Alai pointed at Tang Ye and said with a smile.

“It’s a matter of luck”

Tang Ye signaled Alai not to worry: "Did you see that shot in the second half? It was my long shot, it was almost a goal!"

“That’s almost it?”

Amrabat put down his hand on Tang Ye's shoulder and said, "The ball you hit flew into the stands. Come on, you don't want to kick the ball you did in training? A volley with the outside of your foot?"

"That's not an outside-of-the-foot volley."

Tang Ye's expression was serious: "It was just a long shot, but it was a little short. You know, the goalkeeper kept blinking when he looked at me. He was very scared!"

"Wow?"

Alai stretched his head forward and said: "I don't know if the opposing goalkeeper was scared or not, but I was scared to death. Oh my God, 16 years old, super long shot!"

“You really don’t understand anything.”

Tang Ye waved his hand and walked to the side to sit down.

Would football be interesting if we just played it honestly?

How to make football interesting?
Long shot!

And it has to be a super world wave!

But unfortunately, Tang Ye’s current shooting attribute is only 61!

"Okay, okay, be quiet for a moment."

After exchanging greetings with the opposing coach, Ten Hag walked back to the locker room.

Looking around, it was a messy locker room. There must have been a very intense celebration here just now!

"After this game you will get 2 days off"

Ten Hag was very happy after winning the game. After winning this game, they also secured their second place in the league.

There is only 0 points and 4 goals difference between them and the top PSV Eindhoven!
When he heard that there was a holiday, Tang Ye jumped up from his stool.

"Hey, don't be in a hurry. I see some of you have already started celebrating. Some of you even jumped up from your stools. Don't look at me, Tang. I'm talking about you."

Ten Hag pointed at Tang Ye in the corner, and under the influence of the coach, all the players in the locker room turned their eyes to Tang Ye.

The latter touched his head.

hiss--

A bit embarrassing!

"Well... I stand up to show my respect to you, Mr. Eric."

“That would be great”

Ten Hag nodded: "It's great to win, I know, because I'm happy too, but I need to tell you some bad news, that is, after returning from the holiday, we will be under a lot of pressure!"

"Because our next opponent is... Ajax!"

Well?
Tang Ye took a deep breath, then took out his phone and looked at the standings: "Isn't Ajax third in the league? They don't have as many points as us."

"Who taught you to judge your team's strength by your points?"

Ten Hag walked towards Tang Ye and began his narration as he walked: "Ajax is a very difficult opponent to deal with. Their passing and control rhythm may be faster than that of PSV Eindhoven..."

Tang Ye didn’t know how strong Ajax was, but after hearing what Ten Hag said, he always had a bad feeling.

……

The two-day holiday actually passed very quickly, and the first-team players immediately resumed training.

Before the training started, assistant coach Van der Gag briefly introduced the technical and tactical characteristics of Ajax to the players.

A short pass with a very fast tempo!

I also particularly like to control the ball in the opponent's half!

Simply put, the Utrecht players will be under a lot of pressure if they play against this team.

Because passing and ball control are Utrecht's weaknesses, if Ajax uses these two tactics, they can beat Utrecht to the ground if nothing unexpected happens!

Tang Ye shook his head, not quite agreeing with what Vandergaard said.

Controlling the ball?

He and captain Ramsselaar are both absolute masters of ball control!

If Utrecht really plays a passing and controlling game against Ajax, they may not be without a chance!
"Oh, yes, Tang, I know what you are thinking. Do you think you are good at ball control?"

Van der Jag noticed Tang Ye who had just smiled. This assistant coach from Utrecht was not a professional psychologist, but Tang Ye's thoughts were too easy to judge.

"Forehead……"

Tang Ye bit his fingernails embarrassedly: "It's okay"

"..."

"Anyway, we won't play head-on with them. The core of the game is the wing. We will play with three forwards and attack from the wing!"

Under the leadership of Van der Gage, the first-team players began their training.

Warm up by grabbing the circle, 3v3 confrontation, and then directly simulate the battle to practice the so-called three-forward lineup.

These are the main contents. In addition to these, Tang Ye and Ramsselaar also received some set-piece training.

During training, Ten Hag observed the performance of Tang Ye and Ramselaar and discovered a very important characteristic.

Ramselaar's set-pieces are very stable. The Utrecht captain can stably pass the ball to a suitable position, but his footwork is not delicate enough, and the forward will not be very comfortable when connecting the ball.

As for Tang Ye, his set-pieces are somewhat abstract and may not be kicked to the right spot, but if he kicks it right, there is a very high chance of scoring a goal.

After comprehensively considering these two characteristics, Ten Hag clarified the rules of set pieces within the team.

Ramsselaar and Tang Ye stand together, and Ramsselaar has the right to decide on set pieces.

But if Tang Ye feels the position is right, he can ask Ramsselaar for the ball.

Tang Ye was a little excited.

He feels that he is now a set-piece expert!
……

The day of the competition came.

This is a match between the second and third place teams in the Eredivisie, and there are about 20 reporters gathered in the Galgenwaard Stadium.

Click!

Click, click, click!

The first reporter to stand up asked, "Mr. Eric, you won the October Coach of the Month trophy, but missed the November Manager of the Month trophy. Do you want to say anything about this?"

"Well, I think I may have lost because of the team's winning rate. Last month we lost 1 game and tied 1 game."

Ten Hag analyzed.

The selection of the Coach of the Month is based on the head coach's tactics and the team's winning rate.

There is no way that Ten Hag's tactics will go wrong, there will never be any problem in this life.

The only problem then is the team's winning rate.

Just as Ten Hag said in front of reporters after the match against PSV.

The winner of that match should be Utrecht.

If they had won that game, with the team's high winning rate and ten Hag's near-perfect tactics, the PSV coach would not have been able to win the November Coach of the Month award! "What about this game? Are you under a lot of pressure facing the league giant Ajax?"

“There is a lot of pressure, but I believe the opponent has more pressure”

Ten Hag smiled: "Because we are second in the standings and they are third, the second is stronger than the third, they should be more afraid of their opponents than we are"

!!!

Before the game started, Ten Hag had already scored a goal!

Ajax is completely passive!

……

"Cough cough!"

"Damn, the broadcast time was wrong today. I thought the game was at 8:7, but it was at :. But it's not too late, the game has just started!"

Wang Chao skillfully opened his broadcast webpage, and the familiar 480p resolution was presented to the audience in the live broadcast room.

The game starts at 7:, which is very friendly to Chinese fans!

"Now let me introduce the rosters of both teams. Utrecht has slightly changed its formation, but the main C is still Tang Ye, there is no change."

“And then there’s Ajax!”

Ajax (3-4-3)

Goalkeeper: Jasper Cillessen
Guards: Riedewald, Feltman, Tate

Midfielders: Serero, Klaassen, Van de Beek, Bazor
Forwards: Younis, Milik, El Ghazi
"Let's take a look at the value of both parties first."

"The total value of Ajax's starting lineup is four times that of Utrecht, and the most valuable player is midfielder Klaassen, who is worth 4 million euros!"

"It's a bit embarrassing for Utrecht. The most valuable player is Alai and Barazite, who are worth 250 million Euros, and the least valuable player is No. 99 Tang Ye, who is worth 0 Euros!"

The German transfer market still lacks attention to young players. Tang Ye played for a full five minutes in the Dutch Eredivisie last season and his market value was not recorded.

The Germans are not as good as the Americans in this regard. This summer, Tang Ye was already online in the FIFA game!

[0 Euros, so what? For every match played by Tang Qiuwang, the net profit of tens of thousands of us combined is at least several million, right? ]

[Millions? Damn, you look down on me, Mengge, too much. Be careful, I will give up the chance to kill in the next game and make you bankrupt! ]

[Mongge, I was wrong, woo woo woo]

[Ajax is quite strong, does Mongke have any comment? ]

[Why is Tang Ye the Mongke? Can anyone explain it?]

[The above person is a real football fan. I suggest you learn about Happy Beans first. After you understand Happy Beans, you will know what Mengge means.]

The number of people in Wang Chao’s live broadcast room soared to 5, many of whom came to watch after hearing about Tang Ye’s reputation on Dongqiudi.

There is no official live broadcast source for the Dutch Eredivisie in China, so Wang Chao just took up all the traffic!

"Hey, here they come! Lechter kicks the ball straight to Tang Ye!"

"clever!"

"The one with the ball now is Tang Ye! Ok, let's see how our King Tang performs."

"Don't worry, Tang Ye kicks very slowly, he is observing!"

"Pass it to Ramselaar on the wing!"

"Beautiful, perfect decision! This pass is worth at least 500 million euros!"

As soon as he first touched the ball, Tang Ye's value in the live broadcast room had skyrocketed by 500 million euros.

This is because according to the observations of fans in the live broadcast room, Tang Ye's first touch of the ball in his starting lineup was basically after 3 minutes, but this time Tang Ye touched the ball before 3 minutes.

In good shape!
"go!"

Ramsselaar dribbles the ball to the wing!
Serero and Younis who returned to defense defended Ramsselaar together!

Ten Hag is under a lot of psychological pressure now, because he can see that Ajax's formation was obviously specially designed.

They knew that Utrecht would play on the wing today, so they played 343 and brought out 4 midfielders!
"Come on, come on, I'm here!"

Tang Ye trotted over and Ramsselaar quickly passed the ball.

Utrecht's two midfielders cooperated with each other, and finally Tang Ye took the ball away.

Yes, top-notch cooperation!
Tang Ye is watching!

On the left, Ale is in a good position!

Just pass the ball!
Not long after the game started, Utrecht directly started their long pass attack.

The coach said before the game that the opponent's passing and control were very strong, so Tang Ye had to play long passes.

The long pass flew to the left bottom line. Tang Ye used some skills here. He used the topspin technique of Ward-Prowse's free kick on this pass.

The ball flew towards Ale and slowed down after falling. Ale caught the ball with his chest very comfortably!
"Here it comes, it has to be Tang Ye!"

"The pass wasn't very accurate, but the speed of the ball was well controlled, Alai! Start going down the line!"

"Ajax are fast, Tate!"

"Alai, come on, Alai!"

"Push forward. Damn, I didn't hit him. Isn't Alai 1 meters tall? What's going on?"

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, put pressure on the defense, the idea is very clear"

"return!"

Utrecht played a very classic tactical combination. Haller, pretending to be a winger, forced Ajax to shrink its defense by dribbling the ball himself.

Wait for Ajax's defense to retreat and then pass the ball back!
Jansen's position is now empty!
Snapped!
A volley shot was given and the ball flew past Feltman's ear.

Goalkeeper Cillessen saved the ball!
"Grass!"

"Is this Ajax goalkeeper so cool to do this? Damn it!"

"such a pity!"

Wang Chao and Ten Hag made the same move, raising their hands, feeling sorry for Jansen's long shot.

"Damn it, Jansen wasted my great pass from King Tang!"

"But it's okay, Utrecht is playing at home and the momentum is still strong."

Just as Wang Chao said, although Jansen's long-range shot did not result in a goal, it directly aroused the emotions of the fans in the stands.

Facing the strong opponent Ajax, Utrecht was the first to complete the shot, which is very good!
However, as a traditional strong team in the Eredivisie, Ajax is certainly not a pushover. After being hit on the goal, the players on the field of Ajax did not panic, but counterattacked according to the instructions of the coach on the sidelines.

Top-notch discipline, even Ten Hag is envious!
The game reached the 25th minute and neither team had scored any goals, but Ajax had begun to slowly gain momentum.

With 65% ball possession, Milik and Younis almost treated Utrecht's half as their home.

The result of continuous ball possession is attacking opportunities. Klaas, Gudelj and Milik made continuous short passes in Utrecht's half, which made the two midfielders Ramselaar and Jansen very confused.

Finally, Klason got the chance and ran directly to the top of the arc.

This guy was very confident. He started shooting before he even reached the top of the arc.

Danger is coming!

However, at this moment, a player in a red and white jersey rushed out from the left side of Klaassen with a flying tackle.

Snapped!
Klasen's low-level strike hit him right on the body.

Tang Ye, who had tackled the ball, hit his head on Klasen's stomach, causing Klasen to be tackled nearly half a meter away.

"Awesome, Tang Ye!"

"Who the hell said Tang Ye only knows how to tackle?"

"Just tackle him! King Tang, so brutal!"
