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

Chapter 681 Mercy
"We are United!"

"We are the champions!"

As the defending champions of this season's Champions League, Manchester United fans have a unique passion.

There is also another point.

"This season is Manchester United's best chance to prove themselves and that they can reach the Champions League semi-finals even without key players."

"Or rather, to prove that they have more than one core!"

The buffs were already fully stacked, and Ten Hag and Eskeriva in the stands were covered in sweat.

Do you think the head coach doesn't need to play just because he's in the stands?

wrong!
Big mistake!

In truly high-level football matches, even the head coach has to put in the effort from the stands; they need to dedicate their souls to the competition!
"Wan-Bissaka..."

boom!
Wan-Bissaka suddenly fell to the ground, but he was fooled. Bellingham pulled the ball back and flicked it, using a feint to get past Wan-Bissaka.

However, Wan-Bissaka got up very quickly after falling, and it looked like he was going to hit Bellingham again.

Pass the ball quickly!

Bellingham passed the ball to Guerrero at the byline.

"here!"

Tang Ye reached out from the far end, and Guerrero delivered a long pass.

The ball is passed over the top of the arc and given to Tang Ye, who is on the right flank.

Position yourself properly, tighten your core, and Tang Ye chests the ball down to Pogba behind him.

"Just attack!"

After adjusting his position, Pogba looked a little tangled, but he still managed to get a shot off.

boom!
A high-speed long-range shot was unleashed, but it was saved by De Gea who jumped out.

"Depend on!"

Pogba swung his hands out violently.

That was so close to a goal!
"it's okay no problem!"

Tang Ye offered words of comfort, signaling to his teammates not to rush.

Dortmund's most important task right now is not scoring goals, but rather creating attacking pressure.

If you attack more, scoring goals will come naturally!
37th minute!

Haaland received a through pass from Tang Ye in the attacking third, ready to use his speed to create an opportunity.

At that moment, De Ligt suddenly appeared from nowhere and collided with Haaland.

De Ligt should have been able to overtake Haaland, but Haaland just happened to lose his balance and fell to the ground.

Manchester United launched a counter-attack.

"heyheyhey!"

Rodri called out to remind him, and De Ligt passed the ball up.

Rodri prepares to receive the ball, and Pogba follows to defend.

"Don't grab it!"

Tang Ye spoke up, but it was too late. Pogba made a sliding tackle, only to realize that Rodri's intention was not to advance the ball at all.

He passed the ball to De Jong ahead of time!

Pull the ball back and turn!

Tang Ye moved closer, creating a 1v1 situation with De Rong.

Retreat little by little.

Tang Ye is under a lot of pressure right now because, to be honest, he's not very good at one-on-one defense.

De Jong changes direction!

Have the opportunity!
boom!
Tang Ye slid down and tackled the ball away.

"Nice!"

Escriva shouted from the bench.

Just as Tang Ye's tackle was about to send the ball out of bounds, Wan-Bissaka rushed up from behind and grabbed the ball before it went completely out of bounds, then unleashed a powerful acceleration.

"Depend on!"

Eskeriva held his head in his hands.

At this point, he realized something was wrong, and Matti on the bench was signaling for the players to retreat.

Manchester United's greatest strength is counter-attack, and they certainly won't let go of an opportunity where a single dribble is enough to score.

Wan-Bissaka passed the ball to Dembele, who immediately began to cut inside.

"Dembele, go for a long corner!"

"Hey, feint, but he's still going to go for the bottom!"

Dembele faked out his way and charged straight to the byline, putting Akanji under a lot of pressure.

Because Akanji didn't know which foot Dembele would use to pass the ball!

Snapped!
A cross from the byline by Dembele!

Complete the groin piercing of Akanji!
Central penalty area!

Bürki positioned himself in a "K" shape and lunged at Halle, who was simultaneously preparing to shoot.

boom!
Bürki collided with Haller, and the Manchester United striker fell to the ground.

Hey!

Bruno Fernandes shrugged at the referee, and the referee reacted quickly, running up to show Bürki a yellow card.

Yellow Card: Bourgeois.

The goalkeeper's yellow card doesn't really matter.

What's more, Manchester United were awarded a penalty because of this!
"..."

"Wow!!!"

After a brief pause, there was a sudden burst of cheers, followed by the fans blowing fake whistles and celebrating applause.

"Beep beep beep!!!"

"United!"

Boom!

"United!"

Boom!

The forwards quickly ran back, and Reus and Tang Ye returned to the penalty area one after the other, each kissing Bürki on the forehead: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay."

They said they were fine, but in reality, they were both extremely panicked.

Manchester United are leading by one goal at home, and Tang Ye can hardly imagine how they will play from here on out.

"The penalty kick was still awarded to Bruno Fernandes."

The camera focused on Bruno Fernandes, who was about to take the penalty, and the commentators and fans held their breath.

The screen at the bottom shows Bruno Fernandes' penalty conversion rate this season.

4 out of 5 balls hit, a success rate of 80%.

This penalty kick success rate is quite good for a team in the top five European leagues.

"hiss……"

"Beep!!!"

Small, quick steps!
B-Fee, the last big step.

Snapped!
The shot went out.

Bruno Fernandes shot in the opposite direction of Bürki's save, and unsurprisingly, the ball went in.

"GOOOO-AAAAA-LLLLLL!!!!!"

"A penalty goal from Bruno Fernandez!!!"

Bruno Fernandes slid across the ground to complete the goal.

It has to be said that Bruno Fernandes' first season at Manchester United was truly amazing, both in the Premier League and the Champions League!

"Vamos!!!"

Rodri roared as Manchester United players gathered at the corner flag, expressing their excitement over the goal.

Premier League directors are masters of creating entertaining content; after showing Bruno Fernandes and Rodri's perspectives, the camera immediately focuses on Erik ten Hag in the stands.

As he celebrated, Ten Hag glanced intentionally or unintentionally in the direction of Eskeriva, with Manchester United fans behind him shouting his name.

As for Eskeriva.

Eskeriva is in a more difficult situation.

The Spaniard couldn't do anything; all he could do was turn his body at a 45-degree angle, avoiding eye contact with Ten Hag while not making his avoidance too obvious.

[It's game over, guys! We're trailing away from home, what are we going to do?]

Manchester United are still ruthless; they seem to have an inexhaustible supply of experience from last season.

If you think Manchester United isn't strong this season, I suggest you look at last season's squad; this season's squad isn't much different from last season's.

[It still doesn't feel right. Damn, last season Manchester United beat Dortmund like it was nothing, didn't they?]

Don't say anymore, my heart is broken, brothers.

Because of Tang Ye, the largest group of football fans in China are Manchester United fans, especially those who started watching football after 2016. The composition is basically Manchester United fans plus the Chinese national team's Manchester United vs. Manchester United match.

However, there weren't many cheers in the comments section when Manchester United were in the lead.

Because Tang Ye isn't at Manchester United!
With General GGBond absent, why are you insisting on taking the lead? This is indeed very difficult for Dortmund.

Holding onto his jersey, Tang Ye took advantage of the opponent's celebration to quickly drink water.

Actually, he didn't drink too much; Tang Ye used 4/5 of the bottle of water to wash his face and hands.

"Don't rush, let's play more steadily in the final moments of the first half."

The players gathered in the middle, and Matti gave them the tactical instructions.

Manchester United have made a lot of preparations for this match, and they are the team with the greater squad advantage. Marty hopes everyone can accept this fact.

It's normal for Manchester United to be in the lead, and what Dortmund needs to do is figure out if they can secretly beat Manchester United.

The reason Mati used the word "steal" to describe Dortmund's task is because he knew that Dortmund absolutely could not play honestly if they wanted to win today's game.

The difference in strength is obvious; if you just blindly play dirty, you'll get into trouble!

39th minute!

The stadium was filled with shouts of "Glory Glory Man United!" The sound came from all directions and converged in the middle of the field, putting immense psychological pressure on both teams.

Bruno Fernandes made a clear mistake after receiving the ball, which Pogba seized to easily steal it.

Give it to Sancho immediately!
Sancho is starting to move down the wing!

"you go first!"

Tang Ye gestured to Sancho to ignore him for now, as he was currently entangled with Rhodes.

If we're talking about Rhodes, he really does an excellent job defending Tang Ye one-on-one.

Step forward and to the left with your right foot!

Stop abruptly, pretending to change direction, but actually run to the left front.

Tang Ye's right hand was swung behind him, and at this point, if Rodri wanted to foul again, he could only grab Tang Ye's hand.

However, seeing the bandage wrapped around Tang Ye's right hand, Rodri ultimately decided against fouling Tang Ye and let him pass by him.

"Middle lane, middle lane!"

Mati is pointing Sancho in the right direction!
Snapped!
The inverted triangle pattern was presented, and Sancho prepared himself, pushing a very long inverted triangle.

The prediction was very accurate!

Tang Ye rode up quickly, raising his right leg.

Long shot!

boom!
A powerful long-range shot was unleashed.

De Gea missed the shot, and Tang Ye's shot grazed the left post and went out.

"Oh!"

Amidst the fans' exclamations, Tang Ye placed his hands on his head.

"Fuck! Fuck!"

Dortmund already struggled to create many attacking opportunities, and when they did, they couldn't capitalize on them, leaving both players and fans quite frustrated.

Live Match Report: In the 43rd minute, Tang Ye turned on the left wing and then broke into the penalty area where he was brought down, but the referee did not award a penalty.

"Beep beep beep!!!"

Tang Ye stood up in the penalty area and expressed his confusion to the referee: "Isn't this a penalty? No, oh well... okay."

That's just how home-field advantage is; it's truly frustrating.

"Beep, beep beep!!!"

At halftime, Manchester United managed to hold onto their 1-0 lead.

The overall score is currently 5-4, with Manchester United still leading by one goal.

Tang Ye stood on the grass, panting, with his hands on his hips.

He made eye contact with Haaland.

Haaland is in a similar situation now.

"fine."

Pogba put his hand on Tang Ye's shoulder, signaling Tang Ye not to rush, as the pressure on Dortmund's attacking midfielder seemed a bit too much.

At that moment, Manchester United fans in the stands began their celebrations ahead of schedule.

"Man United!"

"The Champion!"

"The Euro Champion!"

Bang bang bang!
At the top of Old Trafford, a banner boldly proclaimed the goal of a second consecutive Champions League title for Manchester United fans.

Because in the eyes of Manchester United fans now, no team can stop them from winning the Champions League!
Watching the players return to the locker room, Eskrima shook his head slightly and sat down in his VIP seat.

It's hard to imagine not being on the front lines when the team's survival is at stake, and Escriva has nothing to say.

Ok……

Come on, Dortmund!

The second half began, and Tang Ye and Bruno Fernandes exchanged a glance. The latter then came up and shook hands with Tang Ye.

Before entering the venue, B-Fei apologized to Tang Ye for the stampede. Since there was an apology, Tang Ye naturally wouldn't say anything.

"Come on."

B squeezed Tang Ye's shoulder muscles with force, while the latter covered his mouth with both hands, feeling the hot breath coming out of his mouth.

"Beep!!!"

The second half has begun!

The first leg ended in a 4-4 draw, which means that extra time and a penalty shootout are highly unlikely.

The final winner of this match will be decided in the last 45 minutes!

Dembele controlled the ball on the wing, and Tang Ye observed the situation in the attacking third and indicated that he wanted to switch positions with Pogba.

Two defenders came to cover, and just as Dembele was about to make a move, Tang Ye suddenly went down and tackled both Dembele and the ball away.

Wow!!!

"Get under control! Get under control!"

Tang Ye signaled to Pogba not to dribble the ball away, and immediately stood up from the ground.

!!!

Pogba immediately realized what Tang Ye was trying to do, and gently pushed the ball forward, giving him a suitable running distance.

Tang Ye ran up.

Snapped!
Wow!!!

"Tang Ye passed it directly, it was a low through ball, oh no, not completely low to the ground."

"And it has an arc!"

Seeing Tang Ye pass the ball, Rodri's heart tightened, and he rushed over at full speed to make a sliding tackle to intercept.

But he couldn't stop them!

The ball rushed past Rode and crashed onto the grass.

De Ligt and Haaland are locked in a battle!
Wow!!!

Haaland won the duel, and De Ligt, who was on the end of the line, was able to reach the ball with his hand.

A one-on-one opportunity has arrived!

"Haaland!"

boom!
A powerful shot was delivered.

The angle was poor, but the ball was fast enough that De Gea had no chance against it.

"The ball went in!!!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"Haaland scores!"

"1:1!!"

With arms outstretched, Haaland roared and charged off the field.

Reach your maximum speed!

boom!
Haaland fell to the ground, got up, and sat down to meditate.

"Haaland scores a one-on-one goal!"

"1:!"

"Dortmund pulled the score back so early in the second half!"

Unfortunately, Manchester United had four away goals, so even though it was a 1-1 draw, Dortmund was still at a disadvantage.

But it doesn't matter, being able to tie the score is awesome!
The camera focuses on Tang Ye on the court.

Instead of celebrating, Tang Ye, who provided the assist, squatted down next to Dembele.

"Tsk, Manchester United might need to bring in their team doctor."

"Let's watch the slow motion."

"Oh! There was no foul, but Tang Ye essentially kicked Dembele's ankle through the ball, which is quite serious."

Manchester United's team doctor came onto the field, and Tang Ye and several Manchester United players surrounded Dembele.

Sitting on the grass, Tang Ye covered his face with his hands.

"fuck..."
