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

Chapter 692 Bellingham's Red Card, Tang Ye's Premature Celebration

"Kevin De Bruyne, he's our Belgian genius..."

"Stockport Iniesta, he's one of our own!" (referring to Foden, a product of the local youth academy.)

"United?"

"We'll never die, we'll never die... Like United in the Champions League!"

The second half had just begun when the home fans immediately started putting pressure on the away team.

The sarcastic tone of the statement, "They won't be eliminated from the Champions League like Manchester United," is far too obvious.

Tang Yee was the king of Manchester United, and he personally killed his own Manchester United, but that doesn't mean he can beat Manchester City in the same way.

"reverse!"

"reverse!"

"Come on, City!"

52nd minute of the second half!

Foden accelerates with the ball!
We've reached near the baseline!

Piszczek prepared to make a one-on-one defense, and Foden and Gündoğan combined behind him.

Successfully received the ball at the baseline!
Pretty!

Foden played decisively, immediately passing the ball whenever he saw an opportunity.

Snapped!
Middle lane!

De Bruyne!

De Bruyne and Hummels are having a match.

Manchester City's midfielders cleverly chose to use their bodies to block the ball, and because it was in the penalty area, Hummels couldn't make any big moves.

boom!
A powerful shot was delivered.

The ball went in!
"Bravo!!!"

Manchester City players were just about to celebrate when VAR checked and found that De Bruyne was offside when Foden passed the ball.

Therefore, this is an invalid goal!
call……

Eskreva let out a long breath; he was truly terrified!
"Fuck!"

Pogba and Fernandinho seemed to have had some kind of conflict, and the two started hurling insults at each other.

"..."

"Hey, this ball!"

"Tsk! Actually, Manchester City's best chance in this game was Foden's attack down the wing around the 50th minute. But De Bruyne isn't a center forward after all, and his awareness of controlling the offside trap isn't good enough!"

"That would make Dortmund very comfortable, they can start..."

"Eh!"

"Pogba, what a super, super, super huge mistake!"

Thinking Guerrero would come over to receive the ball, Pogba didn't even look and let the ball slip past his feet.

When I turned around, I realized...

Guerrero wasn't in the place he imagined!

The ball rolled on the grass, and Pogba and Fernandinho were chasing it.

Snapped!
Pogba and Fernandinho both fell to the ground, preparing to challenge for the ball with a sliding tackle.

Fernandinho tackled the ball first, while Pogba tackled Fernandinho instead.

"xuuu!!"

It was a yellow card offense, but the ball is currently in Bernardo Silva's possession, so Manchester City has the advantage in attack.

The referee did not blow the whistle immediately!

Something is going to happen!

Seeing Foden dribbling diagonally forward, Tang Ye had a bad feeling.

boom!
Foden played a through ball to De Bruyne, who had just entered the penalty area.

Wow!!!

Snapped!
"GOOOO-AAAA-LLLLL!!!!"

De Bruyne's feint shot was completely unstoppable by Bürki alone.

The ball went in!
De Bruyne stood in the penalty area with his arms outstretched, and Manchester City players on the field quickly ran towards him.

"Vamos!!!"

Guardiola suddenly appeared to be about to run onto the pitch and slide onto his knees.

Since the ball was already dead, the linesman didn't intervene.

boom!
Guardiola rushed onto the pitch and hugged Stones.

Tang Ye stood on the grass, shaking his head and sighing.

Turning to look at Reus, the Dortmund captain was in a similar situation.

Ugh, this is so upsetting...

"fine."

Tang Ye placed his left hand on Pogba's shoulder.

Taking the lead is certainly a good thing, but since we've been tied, we can only accept it.

After all, a draw away from home is already a pretty good result for Dortmund.

Escriva finally sat down in the stands, the jeers from the Manchester City fans behind him making him uncomfortable.

"Come on City!"

"Come on City!"

The game continued, and Manchester City made their first substitution in the 65th minute.

Guardiola substituted Sterling for the well-performing Foden.

This substitution has put even more pressure on the already stressed Dortmund players.

Sterling's exceptional speed will definitely cause a lot of trouble for Dortmund's defense!
“Focus!”

In the video, Tang Ye raises both hands upwards. Because of the bandage on his right hand, Tang Ye's movement stands out in the shot.

The broadcaster knows what viewers want to see and displays the data immediately in the lower left corner of the screen.

【68'72''】

[TangYe: 10.21km]

I ran 10km in less than 70 minutes.

Although the sprint speed was not fast, this distance data shows that Tang Ye basically achieved full map coverage.

"Look, look, look!"

Guardiola is smart; he has clearly noticed Tang Ye's running distance problem and has been calling out Tang Ye's name repeatedly from the sidelines, signaling the Manchester City players on the field to target Tang Ye specifically.

"Go and grab him! Grab him!"

"Spread them out a little wider!"

With the attack line widened, Tang Ye can no longer just wander around in the middle lane.

"..."

Marty stood on the sidelines, his brow furrowed.

This situation requires the full-backs to come up, but unfortunately, neither of Dortmund's two full-backs are particularly good at controlling the ball.

We can only place our hopes on Tang Ye for now.

The students are starting to feel the strain; Master, please hold on a little longer if you can!

De Bruyne is coming back to provide support!

Reus closely marked De Bruyne, at which point De Bruyne suddenly stepped on the ball and flicked it backward.

Give it to Sterling at the very front!

"Eh!"

Sterling and Bellingham rushed together in the direction the ball was rolling.

Bellingham tried to block the shot, but he knew he couldn't outrun the energetic Sterling who had just come on as a substitute.

Look up.

Sterling can pass the ball to Mahrez as soon as he gets it, and Mahrez will then be one-on-one with the goalkeeper.

Realizing something was wrong, Bellingham became a little anxious.

Just as Sterling was about to get the ball, Bellingham suddenly stretched out his left foot, trying his luck to see if he could clear the ball.

But it was this outstretched left foot that caused Bellingham to trip Slin and fall to the ground.

Bellingham also fell, but he realized something was wrong the moment he hit the grass and immediately raised his hand to signal to the referee.

"Wait a minute!"

Tang Ye quickly ran over and stood between the referee and Bellingham: "Sir, please listen to me, don't panic, please listen to me first, okay?"

"He and Sterling were side-by-side, and he was heading straight for the ball!"

"We can award a direct free kick!"

After Tang Ye finished speaking, Royce also came up and said that Bellingham definitely did not foul on purpose this time.

Just as Reus finished speaking, the referee pulled out a yellow card.

Bellingham already had a yellow card.

and so……

Red card!

"Oh!"

“Beep beep beep beep!!!”

"Nice! Referee!"

"Beautiful! That's it!"

The home team fans were already in a frenzy, while Tang Ye and Reus were still arguing with the referee.

Damn it, how could Dortmund possibly accept this?

Bellingham was on the verge of collapse, and Sancho and Hummels kept comforting their teammate by patting him on the back and hugging him.

"No, he didn't do it on purpose!"

Tang Ye shouted at the referee, "This isn't a yellow card! Don't do this." The referee gestured for Tang Ye to leave.

Tang Ye refused to leave, and the referee pretended to pull out a card, which finally forced Tang Ye to leave.

Dongqiudi live match report: Bellingham was sent off after receiving two yellow cards, leaving Dortmund with 10 men.

【? ? ? ? 】

[Holy crap, that idiot referee! Shouldn't the second yellow card have been given more leniently?]

I think the referee probably didn't even know Bellingham already had a yellow card; he was initially going to write his name on it.

Invincible

[Hurry up and play with a five-man defense! Damn, Dortmund doesn't seem to have any good defenders left.]

Tang Ye squatted on the ground, sweat dripping continuously from his forehead and hair onto the grass.

Things are starting to look a little bad...

After the match resumed, Matti began making rapid substitutions.

Reus and Sancho were both removed from the squad, effectively turning Dortmund into a five-man defense.

Even though Marty is a relatively radical coach, this is all he can do now!

"Tsk, Dortmund's situation..."

"This is the downside of the head coach being suspended. Actually, we think Dortmund could have just played defensively in the second half, since they were leading in the first half! When you're already leading, there's no need to play so aggressively!"

"But you can't entirely blame Matty. Top teams like Manchester City can adjust very quickly."

Just as the commentators analyzed, Manchester City adjusted their form a bit too quickly.

At least that's the case for Dortmund.

Trailing by one goal at halftime, Manchester City completely reversed the situation in just 25 minutes.

Although the score is still tied, Dortmund has now lost a player!
The match quickly reached the 75th minute.

Bellingham's red card left Dortmund with one less player, but on the other hand, it also gave Tang Ye some time to recover.

Dortmund's current problem is how to withstand Manchester City's upcoming attacks!

"De Bruyne's progress is very slow."

"They're probably going to attack down the flanks; let's draw Dortmund's defenders there first."

Manchester City's strategy was very clear: De Bruyne dribbled the ball and prepared to move towards the left byline.

When encountering a defender, immediately pass the ball to Sterling who is there to receive it.

These are all standard short pass options.

Manchester City's strength in recent seasons lies in the fact that their players consistently make the right passing choices.

Although a little bit of correctness is small, many little bits of correctness added together can have a very considerable effect.

Sterling raises both hands and dribbles the ball with the outside of his foot!
"middle!"

Snapped!
Sterling presented an inverted triangle.

Stones came up to get the ball when Tang Ye suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

boom!
"Pretty!"

"What a clean tackle!"

"Yes, with one less player, Dortmund chose to pull Tang Ye back in position, and I have to say that this was a very correct move, because we know that Tang Ye has a pretty good defensive ability."

After rescuing him, Tang Ye stood up and shouted.

"come on! Come on!"

Thorgan, who came on as a substitute, encouraged his teammates.

At this moment, momentum is absolutely crucial!

Dongqiudi live match report: In the 79th minute, Mahrez curled a shot towards the far corner, but the ball went slightly wide.

"Oh!"

It’s too thrilling!

Mahrez's shot nearly ripped the hearts out of Dortmund fans.

"Nice!"

"Just stay calm! Stay calm!"

Tang Ye clapped his hands incessantly, his left palm clapping against the hard bandage on his right hand, making a "bang bang" sound.

"City!"

"Come on City!"

While Dortmund tried to hold onto their lead, Manchester City fans were craving an opportunity to extend it.

Manchester City are the Premier League champions this season (with a very high probability), and since they are already the Premier League champions, they certainly can't let Dortmund leave the Etihad unscathed!

"Blue Moon!"

"Blue Moon!"

"Blue Moon is the dream!"

84th minute!

Sterling received the ball and ran up from behind at an extremely fast pace.

When he was still a few meters away from Tang Ye, Sterling suddenly stepped forward with his left foot, as if he wanted to sink into the ground.

The instant Tang Ye shifted his center of gravity, Sterling made a sudden change and ran directly to the right.

A gentle shoulder movement!

Pass the ball to Bernardo Silva coming from the middle!
Bernardo Silva received the ball, accelerated, and charged straight into the penalty area.

"Come!"

De Bruyne and Sterling switched positions, and De Bruyne reached out for the ball!
De Bruyne received a pass back from Bernardo Silva in the penalty area and looked up!
Swing your leg!

He thought it was a shot, but it was actually a feint that passed to Sterling in the penalty area.

boom!
A shot struck Hummels, and the ball bounced off.

"I come!"

Stones stopped the ball, dribbled forward a few steps, and then passed it to Mahrez.

A cut inside from Mahrez!
Dortmund quickly reversed course.

Mahrez passes to De Bruyne!
De Bruyne passes to Sterling again!
Snapped!
Another shot from Sterling was blocked by the defender who had fallen to the ground.

Manchester City's current problem is the lack of a good enough finisher!

Stones, come up here!

A long-range shot!
boom!
Stones' shot flew straight into the stands!
"Oh!!"

If fans in the stands could see the players' heart rate data on the field, they would be very surprised.

During Manchester City's attack just now, Dortmund players' heart rates were generally above 140, and Tang Ye's heart rate even reached 170 due to his young age and high exertion.

Fortunately, the heart rate dropped quickly.

"Just hold the line!"

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Suddenly noticing something, Tang Ye, who had just shouted for defense, suddenly accelerated and ran in front of De Bruyne.

He received a pass from Piszczek.

Swish!
With a jump and a pull, Tang Ye easily nutmegged De Bruyne.

Turn around and run forward!

"Dortmund has a rare attacking opportunity!"

"Dortmund could actually keep the ball on the flanks and stall for time!"

"Hey Tang Ye, do it yourself!"

"What do you want to do!"

One player dribbled the ball more than 20 meters, completely avoiding the defenders by using his rhythm.

Standing in the center circle, Tang Ye glanced at the baseline on the right side of the road.

"Watch out!"

Guardiola shouted it out.

Just as the Manchester City defenders were looking for Brandt, Tang Ye suddenly pointed to the penalty area.

Snapped!
The through ball was unleashed with incredible speed.

It flew between Stones and Gündoğan and crashed onto the grass.

Give it to Guerrero!
"Holy shit!"

The ball bounced off the grass and landed right at Guerreiro's feet. The Dortmund midfielder easily received the ball, creating a false one-on-one opportunity.

"Nice!"

In the center circle, Tang Ye raised both hands, celebrating ahead of schedule.

boom!
"The ball went in!!"

"Oh my God!"

"A goal scored by Guerrero!"

"Dortmund scored their second goal in the 88th minute!"

1: 2!

This is the current score.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this will be the result of the first round of the match.

The mighty Manchester City suffered a defeat to Dortmund at the Etihad Stadium.

"..."

In the stands, Escriva kept his lips tightly closed.

He had been breathing through his nose, but his breathing rhythm became erratic, and he felt a slight sense of suffocation. Finally, Escriva opened his mouth.

"hiss……"

"I rely on."
