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

Chapter 684 Three Heroes Battle Lü Bu?
[Mission Objective: Advance to the Champions League semi-finals]

Status: Completed.

The third phase of the series of tasks requires advancing to the Champions League semi-finals.

To be honest, this task was indeed a bit difficult to complete. At first, Tang Ye even thought he wouldn't be able to get it.

Fortunately, Dortmund had some luck and managed to advance to the semi-finals.

only……

The thought of Manchester United being eliminated made Tang Ye unable to muster any emotion.

"..."

Forget it!

Tang Ye shook his head sharply and decided to stop thinking about Manchester United.

Let's see what rewards we can get first!

[Rewards are being settled...]

You have gained 80000 comeback points.

"..."

wh...what?

Tang Ye didn't react at first and quickly checked his homepage.

[Comeback Points Balance: 103542]

It is indeed 8 points.

Tang Ye now understands that the rewards for this Champions League series of tasks do not increase over time and are unrelated to which season it is.

What matters is how much Tang Ye himself sacrificed to accomplish the mission.

In other words, the difficulty of completing the task!

hiss……

10 comeback points...

Tang Ye really needs to think about how to spend this money.

With so much money, it's natural to use it to buy templates; the key is deciding which template to buy.

A passing template like De Bruyne?

Hey, wait a minute!

With his attention focused on the De Bruyne template, lost memories flooded Tang Ye's mind.

Open the store.

【欠款额度：逆袭点*100000（德布劳内传承模板），还款时限1个月，最迟还款日：阿姆斯特丹时间2036年10月13日】

"..."

I almost forgot that I still owe the system 10 yuan.

Because of a time bug in the system, Tang Ye still has a full 15 years before he needs to repay the loan.

I now have 10 yuan in my hands.

Should we return it?
Tang Ye is currently conflicted, or rather, extremely conflicted.

Ok……

Human nature is inherently good, so it's always better to be honest!
Tang Ye has always been a good person, so he knows very well what he should do now!
【System Store】

[Select - Template - Limited to - Greater than 5 comeback points]

Tang Ye, with his remaining 10 "comeback points," went shopping.

What repayment?

talk about it later!

[Maradona's Hand of God Template (Ultimate Legendary)]

Price: 120000 Comeback Points
12 is already beyond Tang Ye's means.

Moreover, the "Hand of God" template is actually not very useful, so Tang Ye still has to keep browsing.

[Rashford's template for lacking a bit of talent in love (superstar)]

Price: 60000 Comeback Points
[King Cantona Legacy Template (Growth)]

Price: 80000 Comeback Points
[Cristiano Ronaldo's header bombardment template (Legend)]

Price: 85000 Comeback Points
Ok……

From a cost-performance perspective, the inheritance template is clearly the most suitable.

With 8 comeback points, if you max out the Legacy template, you can basically achieve the strength of 4-6 Legendary templates.

If it were before, Tang Ye would have chosen the inheritance template without hesitation, just like he chose De Bruyne before.

But Tang Ye has now reached the late stage of development.

Or rather, Tang Ye is now facing the upcoming Bundesliga title race, the Champions League semi-finals, and the incredibly difficult Qatar World Cup qualifiers.

Spend another 3 years grinding for legacy templates?
Sorry, that's impossible for Tang Ye.

A great responsibility has been bestowed upon me by Heaven.

No time to argue, let's just buy what's ready!

You have purchased the Gerd Müller penalty area killer template (Premium Legendary).

[Shots on goal: 89 → 91]

The Gerd Müller, who is on par with the Maradona Hand of God, is priced at 9 Comeback Points.

It's not that Tang Ye likes being an assassin.

Tang Ye is a good person; he wouldn't kill someone.

For Tang Ye right now, shooting ability is indeed very important.

Especially now, Haaland's injury has significantly weakened Dortmund's attacking capabilities!
Account Balance: 13542 Comeback Points

Tang Ye (22 years old)
[Ball possession: 92; Passing: 95]

[Shots: 91; Headers: 62; Set pieces: 93]

Speed: 82; Endurance: 85; Physical Strength: 89

[Defense: 77; Vision: 99]

Overall rating: 95
Yes, he has become much stronger. In addition to his shot being close to his pass, Tang Ye's overall rating has reached a high of 95.

To reiterate, GGBond's overall rating is the worst in modern football history!

……

Sky Sports commentator: Despite defeating Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund's situation is not as good as it seems, as they face three Premier League teams next!
As an English media outlet, Sky Sports exuded pride throughout its coverage of the Champions League semi-finals.

As the world's most competitive football tournament, the Champions League semi-finals bring together the four best teams in terms of overall ability this season.

Of these four teams, three are from the English Premier League!
In the semi-final draw poster provided by Dongqiudi staff, Guardiola, Tuchel, and Klopp are depicted riding horses, surrounding Tang Ye, who is also on horseback.

【Three Heroes Battle Lü Bu】—this is the title of the poster.

Actually, you don't even need to read the title to understand, since this scene is just too classic for Chinese people.

[We're on a TV show, guys, wake up!]

When does the draw start? I have a feeling it's going to be Liverpool, a double victory over Manchester United and Liverpool! Get lost!

Tang Ye is truly pitiful.

[This poster has such great details! Tang Ye's right hand is still bent. Is he riding a horse and fighting the Oath of the Peach Garden with one hand?]

Dortmund is really gaining fans this season. I've seen so many Manchester United fans defect. You guys are disgusting!

Hehe, I'll change it too.

……

UEFA Champions League Official: Champions League Quarter-Final Team of the Round of 16 (First Team):

Goalkeeper: Alisson (Liverpool)

Defenders: Wan-Bissaka (Manchester United), Phillips (Liverpool), Ruben Dias (Manchester City), Kyle Walker (Manchester City)
Midfielders: Pogba (Dortmund), Tang Ye (Dortmund), Rodri (Manchester United)
Forwards: Reus (Dortmund), Haaland (Dortmund), Mahrez (Manchester City)

Head Coach: Guardiola
Player of the quarterfinals: TangYe (Dortmund).

There was little controversy regarding the All-Tournament Team and MVP in this quarterfinal series, as the performance gap between the First Team and the Second Team was simply too large.

Four Dortmund players were selected for the first team and won the MVP award, which looks very good.

But you need to know one thing: Haaland's injury status is still uncertain!

Dortmund's key striker is injured!

Dortmund officials were clearly aware of the seriousness of the situation, and it's unclear whether they did not inform the media about Haaland's situation immediately in order to mislead their opponents.

Of course, the Dortmund players knew about this.

"Two weeks is actually not too bad."

Reus was calculating.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the first leg of Dortmund's semi-final should be on April 28th or 29th, meaning Haaland will only miss one leg.

He can play in the next round!

"This isn't good..."

Tang Ye sat on the grass, looking dejected: "Those three are all tough opponents. The first leg is crucial."

“That’s true.” Royce sighed.

At this moment, Pogba came over, took two bottles of water, handed one to Tang Ye, and kept the other for himself.

Upon noticing Reus watching him, Pogba hesitated for a second before offering Reus his water.

Just as Pogba was about to say something, Eskeriva walked over and said, "Don't think too much about it. Let's wait for the draw results. The focus now is on the Bundesliga."

The Bundesliga is currently in its 28th round, and Dortmund's next match against Werder Bremen will be in the 29th round.

The Bundesliga is not the Premier League; a Bundesliga season only has 34 rounds.

That means we've now reached the championship stage!

To be honest, Dortmund's current situation is somewhat awkward, because from the coaching staff to the management, not a single one of the hundreds of people has formulated a plan for Dortmund to advance to the Champions League semi-finals.

They were eliminated in the group stage last season, but this season they've made it straight to the Champions League semi-finals.

Hmm... obviously it will take some time to get used to.

Escriva studied the standings and then had Matti gather all the players together.

Dortmund has three league matches remaining in April, from round 29 to round 31.

"We have only one goal."

"Yes, that's a three-game winning streak. We need to get to 80 points."

The players on the team were not surprised when they heard Eskeriva's request.

After Eskeriva left, Tang Ye suddenly spoke up and said to Marty, "Ferland seems to have become more confident?"

"Hmm... I can't quite put my finger on it, but he probably wasn't like this before."

In Tang Ye's memory, devising a plan for a three-game winning streak was something that Mr. Eric should have done!
"Who knows."

Marty shook his head: "He can't play in the Champions League semi-finals, so he can only focus on the league for now."

"Haha! But Marty, he should be able to watch from the stands, right?"

"How can the bishop just stand in the stands and watch!"

"Hahaha!"

……

Dongqiudi pinned post: Dortmund announces squad for Round 29 match against Werder Bremen, Tang Ye leads the team, Zhang Yuning is selected for the first time.

"Yes, Haaland's absence is an opportunity for Zhang Yuning."

"Of course, this opportunity does not mean that Zhang Yuning can replace Haaland as Dortmund's starting center forward, but rather that it can help him get playing time in Dortmund's first team."

"Playing against a Champions League semi-final team like Dortmund will be very helpful for Zhang Yuning's improvement."

The camera focused on Zhang Yuning on the bench.

Coach Eskreva is making Chinese fans happier and happier.

Not to mention, this guy doesn't like to talk big like Ten Hach.

Eskrima's maturity level alone has earned him the right to be spared criticism from Chinese fans!

"Bellingham, come up here yourself!"

Tang Ye cut in from the side!

boom!
Bellingham played a through ball, and Tang Ye lifted his right foot, letting the ball roll naturally under him.

Wow!!!

The fans at Westfalen were already screaming because of how hot it was in the sky.

Watch Tang Ye's moves!

Snapped!
[De Bruyne's cross from the byline lv6: Not ashamed to ask questions]

The cross is delivered to Brandt in the penalty area!

Brandt's header!
boom!
A header hit the ground, bounced, and went into the goal area.

"TOOOOORR!!!!"

"The ball is in!"

"Brandt!"

The score is now 1-0, with Dortmund taking the lead at home!

Although Brandt's primary position is not center, it must be said that this player's offensive ability is indeed very good.

"come on! Come on!"

"..."

"Tang Ye should be the one to take this penalty."

"Break the door!"

"The ball is in!"

"2-0! Tang Ye scores from the penalty kick!"

"..."

"Hmm... It seems like Werder Bremen is struggling to withstand Dortmund's attack?"

"Let's start with a groin pass. Tang Ye goes past Selassie."

"Just pass it straight through!"

Reus arrived at the far post and unleashed a powerful shot towards the goal.

Goalkeeper Pavlenka was out of it, and could only watch helplessly as the ball rushed past him.

The ball went in!
It is now the 32nd minute of the first half, and the score is 3-0.

Dortmund almost completely dominated Werder Bremen.

Bremen certainly wanted to fight back, but for some reason, no matter what they tried, it didn't work.

37 minutes.

This was the second penalty of the match, and Tang converted it again.

By this time, haters should already be starting to criticize in the comments section, saying things like Tang Ye can only score from penalties.

However, Tang Ye didn't need to take action; his Tang army would mobilize on its own!
[That idiot military governor (referring to a Tang Dynasty hater) is still yelling here. Does he really think the Tang emperor's archery skills are a joke?]

[Hilarious! All those military governors on Weibo are criticizing penalty kicks for being low-quality, but if you put them up there, they wouldn't be able to score.]

[Classic comment from a hater: Penalties don't count as goals]

[Holy crap, 4-0! This is going to be a disaster! Go Esheng!]

When will you let me, Zhang Yuning, go up there for a bit?

In the 40th minute, Zhang Yuning, a substitute, began to warm up, and the director immediately showed him on camera.

Having been with Dortmund for almost a whole season, Zhang Yuning, who has been playing for the second team, is finally about to make his first-team debut.

"..."

52nd minute of the second half!

"Get in!"

Tang Ye pointed to the penalty area, and Zhang Yuning decisively moved forward.

boom!
The pass from Tang Ye went directly to Zhang Yuning's feet.

After adjusting his position, Zhang Yuning prepares to shoot.

Snapped!
"Oh! That was such a pity!"

"Yes, Zhang Yuning's adjustment speed was a little slow."

After missing a goal, Zhang Yuning placed his hands on his head, looking very disappointed.

To be honest, Zhang Yuning now has the ability of a €500 million center forward.

Unfortunately, this is a match between Dortmund and Werder Bremen, and a €500 million center forward is only at the bottom level.

63th minute!

This time it's a collaboration between Tang Ye and Sancho.

Zhang Yuning drew the defense in the penalty area, and Tang Ye made a cutback pass to Sancho after reaching the byline.

Sancho pretended to pass the ball to Zhang Yuning.

But shoot directly at the near corner!
"My God, haha!"

"This is Dortmund's fifth goal of the match!"

"The advantage is indeed quite significant."

Fans watching the live broadcast in the studio didn't really feel anything, but the Werder Bremen players at the stadium knew very well.

Dortmund's relentless pressing in the attacking third almost suffocated them.

Imagine the feeling of someone rushing towards you within a second of you getting the ball.

Moreover, the yellow number 10 on the other side is really disgusting.

He can anticipate your and your teammates' movements, causing your teammates to be pressed immediately after you pass the ball.

The away team's coach sat on the bench, shaking his head every now and then.

Bremen is now completely locked down...
