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

Chapter 630 The New King of Europe Ascends His Throne
Pinned Post: Manchester United sweep Barcelona 5-1, winning the European title at the Stadium of Light!
【Teng Sheng!!!】

Damn it, I can't sleep tonight.

[What are you still sleeping for? It's already past 5 a.m., watch the awards ceremony first.]

[Tang Ball King, God!]

Lewandowski's Ballon d'Or dream is shattered, what a pity, but there's really nothing he can do against my GGBond.

[24 million? 2.4 billion!]

"Huh, huh..."

The sound of players panting could be heard constantly on the pitch, and at least five Manchester United players, including Tang Ye, shed tears.

The most outrageous of them all was Ashley Young, the former Manchester United captain who was sitting on the ground, curled up with his arms covering his head.

Tang Ye slowly walked over.

Tang Ye didn't want to disturb Ashley Young, but after thinking about it, he felt he couldn't leave Ashley Young crying alone on the ground.

He's the team leader, and comforting his teammates is one of his responsibilities.

"Yang!"

Tang Ye knelt on one knee, and Ashley Yang looked up at Tang Ye, her tears flowing even more freely.

"Huff, huff, huff, Tom"

"..."

"Hey, it's okay, Yang!"

Tang Ye opened his arms and hugged Ashley Young: "We're in the Champions League now, Young."

Ashley Young raised his head and stared straight into Tang Ye's eyes: "Tom..."

"no sooner said than done"

Tang Ye gave a thumbs-up and then ruffled Ashley Young's hair again.

"call……"

Rhodes knelt down beside Tang Ye. After briefly comforting Ashley Yang, Tang Ye took Rhodes to find Ten Hach.

According to scientific data, Ten Hag should still be contagious, but the season is already over.

Moreover, Tang Ye had great faith in his body, believing that his and Luo De's antibodies were strong enough.

Mr. Eric

Tang Ye opened his arms, and Teng Hahe took a step back, hesitated, and then hugged Tang Ye.

The Manchester United manager patted Tang Ye repeatedly on the back, saying, "Well done, well done..."

"Haha, that's too easy!"

Tang Ye appeared relaxed.

However, this ease is only temporary.

From the start of the semi-final to the end of the final, the pressure on the Manchester United players never eased.

Ten Hach put his hand on Tang Ye's shoulder, leaned closer, and whispered in Tang Ye's ear, "You're a legend now."

"Haha, you're a legend too, Mr. Eric."

The camera pans to Messi, who is crouching on the grass.

Although he didn't have tears in his eyes like some Barcelona players, Messi's expressionless face still evoked a sense of heartache.

Messi didn't cry, but his fans know how devastated he is right now.

"Actually, considering Messi's age and the fact that his contract with Barcelona is about to expire, this could very well be Messi's last chance to compete for the Ballon d'Or..."

The narrator sighed.

While the two commentators were chatting, Tang Ye walked over to Messi, intending to comfort his rival who had competed against him for many years.

But he was stopped by Mata.

"It could cause a misunderstanding."

Mata prevented Tang Ye from walking in front of Messi, because this action could be misinterpreted by fans as a mockery of Messi's fall from grace.

"..."

Tang Ye listened to Mata's advice and stood still with his hands on his hips.

To be honest, he didn't really like this feeling.

He used to have a good relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, and Ronaldo would even greet him at award ceremonies.

But those memories are fading away little by little.

After Ronaldo reduced his communication with him, Messi also became estranged from him, to the point that Tang Ye couldn't even go up to comfort him when the opponent lost the game.

"TangYe!"

"TangYe!"

"TangYe!"

Hundreds of Manchester United fans in the stands chanted Tang Ye's name, and only when the camera panned to the viewer did viewers notice that all the FIFA officials in the stands were walking down.

Clearly, the Champions League winners' award ceremony is about to begin!

Setién remained silent, simply leading the Barcelona players to stand in front of the tunnel, ready to line up and welcome this season's Champions League champions.

"Unexpected"

Mata and Ashley Young are standing together; these two can be considered Manchester United veterans.

Mata shrugged: "To be honest, I don't even know how we won. I only played 30 minutes in the knockout stage, and then we won the championship 5-1."

Ashley Young deeply understood Mata's words and laughed: "Haha, a win is a win, as for why we won..."

Ashley Young turned around and quickly saw Tang Ye and Dembele arguing.

"hey Ottoman"

In the players' tunnel, Tang Ye nudged Dembele: "Just tell me, was it me who led you to victory?"

"Get lost! How did you get the assist if I didn't break through? All three assists are 100% fake."

"..."

Ashley Young turned back, shrugged, and said, "How they won the championship? You'll have to ask those two kids."

……

clap clap clap!
Clap clap clap!

Amidst the reluctant applause of the Barcelona players, Ten Hag led the Manchester United players out of the tunnel to receive a ceremony of respect from Barcelona.

Tang Ye shook hands with Pique, then walked up to Messi and glanced at him. The Argentine was also looking at him.

"..."

Tang Ye wasn't sure if Messi actually wanted to shake his hand. After thinking it over carefully, he decided to give up in the end to avoid an awkward situation.

"gone!"

Rodri knew what Tang Ye was thinking, so he pushed Tang Ye forward.

"China Central Television! This is a live broadcast of the 2019-20 UEFA Champions League awards ceremony. As you can see, Manchester United manager Eric Ten Hag is leading his players onto the field!"

Ten Hach stepped onto the podium, followed closely by Tang Ye.

For some reason, Ten Hach started chatting with Infantino, who was in charge of presenting the awards, which made Tang Ye so anxious that he kept shaking his leg on the spot.

Mr. Eric

Tang Ye urged him on.

"Oh, haha!"

Ten Hah and Tang Ye clapped their hands, giving up their seats.

"This is yours."

Infantino hung the medal, symbolizing the champion's honor, around Tang Ye's neck.

UEFA Champions League

Based on Tang Ye's experience, this medal is likely also gold-plated.

Tang Ye didn't know exactly how much gold was in the medal, but he was certain that his medal was of high value.

A 5-1 victory over Barcelona in the final is no joke!
"wowhoo!"

Ale held his medal high in his right hand, gesturing for the photographers below to take a picture with him: "Lying down to win is so comfortable, fuck, haha!"

Alai was making fun of himself when, for some reason, Ten Hah next to him glared at him, leaving Alai speechless for a long time.

"What did you do?"

Ziyech fumbled for his medal, glancing at the embarrassed-looking Alai, who muttered helplessly, "Did I just win by default?"

"Yeah, me too. It doesn't matter, a champion is a champion. Who knew you won by default?"

Ziyech's words made Alai drop his burdens and join the celebration.

The players lined up in three rows, and Tang Ye gestured for everyone to move closer together, otherwise it wouldn't feel right.

Ten Hag took the Champions League trophy from Infantino and squeezed into the team: "Come on, Tom!"

Ten Hag handed the trophy to Tang Ye, who gripped the trophy's two large handles tightly with both hands—the most striking feature of the Champions League trophy.

His teammates were already cheering, but Tang Ye remained calm, simply examining the trophy before him. Suddenly, he looked at Ashley Young standing to his right and handed him the trophy: "Young, you take it."

"?"

"you sure?"

Although he asked the question, Ashley Young's hand was already on the trophy when he asked it.

"If you ask again, I won't give it to you."

"Ha ha"

Ashley Young pulled hard and "snatched" the trophy from Tang Ye's hands.

"call……"

The Champions League trophy is huge, extremely huge, almost completely obscuring Ashley Young's body.

“Ooh ooh ooh ooh…”

"Bravo!!!!"

boom!
bang bang bang! ! !
Bright silver fireworks exploded, and at the same time, Ashley Young raised the trophy high in his hand.

The Manchester United players raised their hands, and Tang Ye jumped directly onto Ten Hag.

Realizing something was wrong, he quickly jumped down again.

“Bravo Tom!”

[2019-20 UEFA Champions League Winner]

Manchester United

Clap clap clap!

Infantino applauded the Manchester United players.

"Come on, Tom!"

Ashley Young raised the trophy only once before immediately handing it to Tang Ye, who then flung it away.

"Wow!"

Tang Ye exerted a lot of force, as if he was about to throw the trophy several meters away.

Of course, he couldn't possibly throw the trophy away.

"Hey, give it to me!"

Rodri and Dembele ran over and took the trophy.

All the players in Manchester United are winning the Champions League for the first time, so it's inevitable that they'll experience a sense of novelty.

"champion!"

Boom!

"champion!"

Boom!

The applause from the podium and the field was continuous. Tang Ye was so excited that he didn't know what to do, so he simply took off his jersey.

He wrapped his jersey into a ball and then slammed it onto the stands.

"Wow!!"

The ball made from the jersey was irregular in shape, but even so, Tang Ye's long pass was still very accurate.

At 5:30 p.m. Beijing time, it was already light in most parts of China, which meant that many fans had stayed up all night to watch the final.

CCTV's broadcast should have ended here, but we need to make an exception today.

"Next, we will be presenting the awards for the Champions League final MVP and the Champions League Golden Boot."

There was no smaller podium at the event, as the MVP and Champions League Golden Boot awards were presented on the champion's podium.

There were two awards, but only one person accepted them.

"The King has been crowned!"

Below the podium, Manchester United players gathered together to welcome their captain with applause.

Tom the Great King is here!

"Wow!"

Tang Ye raised both hands, gave a thumbs-up to the audience below, and then accepted the MVP award for the finals.

Clap clap clap!

"Next up is the Golden Boot award for this year's Champions League!"

A condensed version of this year's Champions League top scorers list popped up in the lower left corner of the CCTV screen.

Top scorers in the 2019-20 UEFA Champions League final:
1. Tang Ye (Manchester United), 10 goals.

2. Lewandowski (Bayern Munich), 10 goals.

"In this Champions League top scorer list, Tang Ye and Lewandowski both have 10 goals, but Tang Ye has one fewer penalty kick than Lewandowski, so he will be ranked one place higher than Lewandowski."

It looks like a shared Golden Boot, but it's not.

The Golden Boot belongs to Tang Ye alone.

"This also makes Tang Ye the third midfielder in Champions League history to win the Champions League Golden Boot, following Platini and Rummenigge, who achieved this honor in 1985 and 1981 respectively."

Click, click, click!

Amidst the cameras of onlookers, Tang Ye held the Final MVP in his left hand and the Champions League Golden Boot in his right, while his Manchester United teammates applauded him from below the stage.

"Tom, you are the third midfielder in Champions League history to win the Golden Boot. Congratulations!"

"Yes, thank you. But I think it might be due to the change in the schedule. Starting from the quarterfinals, each team only plays one match, so many teams have two fewer games."

"Chinese people are generally quite modest, and now it seems that this statement is indeed true."

An ESPN reporter joked, "You're the first player to win both the Golden Boot and the assist title. Although there isn't an assist title award yet, we can clearly see the data. You know, we live in the information age."

"Could you give an evaluation of this season's Champions League, or simply put, your journey to winning the title?"

"Um, sorry?"

Tang Ye had been lost in thought, so the reporter repeated his question.

"Oh, well... I think it's quite difficult, because we lost the previous two seasons, so we all feel we can't afford to lose again this season. Although we already had three titles before coming to Lisbon, you know, the Champions League title is special."

"Wow!!"

The cheers of fans could be heard from the stands.

"It seems you've already secured this year's Globe Award."

Tang Ye simply smiled and did not reply.

The reporter seemed to be trying to support Tang Ye, but to be honest, Tang Ye really thought the same thing.

With both Premier League and Champions League titles, there is no longer a player who could defeat Tang Ye in 2020.

"Die Meister (Germany) kicks Barcelona~"

"Die Besten (Germany) kicks Barcelona~"

"Les Grandesquipes (France) will play against Bayern Munich~"

"Une grande réunion (French) - I see the universe again~"

"Eine groe sportliche Veranstaltung (German) Oh well, you want to fly right now, you idiot?"

"..."

"Ils sont les meilleurs (French) Don't kill Bayern"

"Thank you, Barcelona."

This is the theme song of the UEFA Champions League, "UEFA Champions League". It is very difficult to understand due to the mix of three languages, but fortunately there is a version with a different pronunciation.

Tang Ye placed the Champions League Golden Boot and Final MVP trophies on the grass, then forcefully placed the trophies on his right shoulder before carrying them to the area below the presidential platform.

In front of Tang Ye was the VIP box of the Stadium of Light, and behind him were his Manchester United teammates walking slowly towards him.

Dongqiudi Match Report: The Red Devils are reborn! Manchester United thrashed Barcelona 5-1, sweeping across Europe to win the Champions League title for the first time since 2008! (243821 comments)

Several hours had passed since the final whistle, and the football website was now completely dominated by bright red.

The pinned poster features a group photo of Erik ten Hag and the entire Manchester United team, with French bully Eric standing out prominently at the edge of the photo.

According to UEFA rules, the interim manager for the final should receive a Champions League medal, so both the dog coach Eric and the team's official manager Eric Ten Hag received championship medals, as they are both Champions League winners.

Below the pinned poster is another poster, but this one belongs to Tang Ye personally.

Tang Ye stood on the edge of the field, carrying the enormous Champions League trophy on his shoulder.

Tang Ye, the "King of Football," had taken off his shirt at some point, and his calves were covered in dark red blood.
