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

Chapter 703 Tang Ye's Last Dance at Westfalen, Bundesliga Champion Award Ceremony
Sky Sports commentator Jansen: There are seven Bundesliga teams whose goal tally has not surpassed TY's individual assist count. These teams really need to reflect on this.

Tang Ye has 46 assists in 33 rounds, which seems quite impressive at first glance.

But if you take another look, you'll be scared to death.

A comparison will show that Tang Ye successfully suppressed 7 teams in the same league.

Furthermore, none of the other 17 Bundesliga teams' midfield trios this season have combined for 46 assists.

Yes, including Bayern Munich.

In response, the Dortmund club director told reporters, "I don't need to emphasize Dortmund's success this season to the media anymore. Dortmund's path and achievements this season are unrepeatable."

"The final against Chelsea is about to begin. Do you think Dortmund can achieve a three-peat?"

"Yes, of course, without a doubt."

With three consecutive shots, the director demonstrated absolute confidence in the team's strength.

After all, Dortmund has reached its strongest period of this century this season, so the management's confidence is inevitable.

"You should have seen the post-match interview, where TY said we would win the Champions League, so I think I don't need to say anything more."

"Ah."

The reporter nodded.

When Tang Ye was mentioned, the football reporter took a deep breath, and a new point of discussion was born.

"Well... sir, seeing how much confidence you have in Dortmund this season, let's not discuss whether Dortmund can win the Champions League. Let's change the subject... do you think the team can replicate this season's success next season?"

"..."

The director held the microphone in his hand and looked at the reporter in front of him.

"This, this... um, this problem."

Touching his nose, the astute club director seemed unsure how to answer the reporter's question: "We all know that Dortmund will undergo some minor changes after this season, um, so I don't know the specifics. We might have to wait until next season to find out..."

"hey-hey."

He gave the camera a smile, and left the rest to the fans' imagination.

……

[May 29th, Champions League Final, Borussia Dortmund vs. Chelsea]

Estádio do Dragão, Portugal

A small whiteboard hangs at the entrance of Dortmund's cafeteria, and the handwriting is clearly Eskeriva's.

The reason for doing this is that the Dortmund coach wants the players to think about the opponents they are about to face before every meal.

Chelsea!
"We need to know how good Chelsea are, we need to feel that pressure, and then we'll know what to do next!"

Eskeriva was talking in the canteen.

The players in the stands were chattering away.

"How did Ferran become like this?"

Harland was surprised and didn't eat a single bite of the food on his plate for a long time: "We're eating, but he wants us to be so tense!"

From a psychological perspective, Eskeriva's actions were certainly wrong.

The problem is that Mr. Ferran seems to have become obsessed.

People who are obsessed won't consider psychology.

"Then what do we do?"

Tang Ye stared wide-eyed, looking somewhat bewildered.

The master wants to help the coach, but he's just a football master, not a medical master, and he can't cure Ferran's current problems.

"Let him speak first."

Pogba, with his legs crossed, had already finished eating sometime earlier: "He'll quiet down when he's tired."

"Ha ha!"

……

Reprint: Manchester United's China tour in July has confirmed two matches, to be played at the Beijing National Stadium (Bird's Nest) (approximately 90,000 seats) and the Chengdu Phoenix Mountain Sports Park (60,000 seats), respectively. The opponents will be Beijing Guoan and the Chinese national men's football team. The second match will also be a warm-up game for the Chinese national team in the AFC Asian Cup qualifiers.

I told you it was the Bird's Nest stadium; the other stadiums don't have enough seats.

[Holy crap, Chengdu! Tang Qiuwang is coming to Chengdu?! I need to get ready!]

[Damn! Why don't you come to Guangdong? I thought you were from either Guangdong or Beijing. Doesn't Tang Ye even come from his hometown?]

Manchester United vs. China! A true Merseyside derby! The question is, how will the match be played, and which side will Tang Ye play for?

Chengdu residents are all smiles, but why haven't they announced where to snag tickets yet? Are they going to have a race to the ticket counters, with the first few getting in getting seats?

It seems that the Chinese Football Association leadership got a little carried away by the team's excellent performance in the 2019 Asian Cup and agreed to let the national team play a friendly match against Manchester United.

This is very interesting; it's generating even more buzz than Liverpool vs. Manchester United.

According to fans, the real "North-West Derby" would be the Chinese national team playing Manchester United!

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Chinese national football team will definitely lose, but there is an advantage to choosing Manchester United as your opponent: it doesn't matter how many goals you lose by, the main point is to pull off some crazy antics.

Putting aside the details of the match, a football match is pointless if you can't watch it!

Great Chinese team, you have won the Asian Cup.

That's great, congratulations on advancing to the next level.

Their opponent is the 2020 Champions League winner!

[Asian Cup champions, Champions League champions, everyone's a champion, I don't understand what's there to be afraid of. I think Manchester United just deserves a beating, come to Chengdu and let us teach them a lesson.]

……

The Sun's front-page headline: Dortmund fans are outraged by scalpers selling tickets for €820 each (originally in the €80 range), and hope the club will take action to crack down on scalpers.

"The match between Dortmund and Leverkusen is highly special, as Dortmund will receive the Bundesliga Shield after the game."

"In addition, this is TY's farewell match in Westfalen."

With the awards ceremony and Donald Westfalen's final dance, the excitement surrounding this match was self-evident.

The price of 800 euros is close to that of a ticket to the knockout stage of the European Championship.

Fans hope that the government and clubs will step in and crack down on scalpers in Europe.

But experienced fans know that.

No matter how many complaints the fans make, it won't have much of an effect.

Because this thing is just too difficult to make!
On match day, the Ruhr area was incredibly lively. The entire 3-kilometer radius around Westfalen was closed off, and Dortmund fans were walking to the stadium.

"Hoohoo!!"

"Hoohoho!!!"

The motorcycle was very loud.

Some fans were just there to witness Dortmund win the title.

However, some fans are not satisfied with just winning the championship.

They had everything prepared long ago!

"See that? That's my motorcycle!"

The fan being interviewed banged on his vehicle: "I have 200 friends, and they all came on motorcycles."

"At the very last second of the game, my friends and I will start the car and drive around Westfalenstadion. You'll see we're fast!"

"But……"

The reporter pointed to the traffic police ahead: "The roads around the stadium are closed off, how are you going to get in?"

"Oh, that's not a problem."

The interviewed fans appeared very confident.

"They don't have as many people as we do."

"what?"

"Oh, my brother's looking for me. I have to go now, goodbye!"

hoohoo! ! !

Twist the accelerator, and the interviewed fan drove off with a flourish: "Wowhoo! Tom!!!"

"..."

……

Tang Ye is a substitute player today.

But the situation is special.

Even as a substitute player, GGBond was still the protagonist of this match.

This can be seen from the posters hanging outside the Westfalenstadion, which feature the Bundesliga championship shield on one side and Tang Ye's personal portrait on the other.

Do you think the media used the phrase "Dortmund wins one title in nine years" when promoting this match?

Actually, no, almost all European and Chinese media outlets used the term "last dance" to describe this match.

The Bundesliga champion has already been decided, and the excitement of Dortmund fans has passed.

But this match was indeed Tang Ye's last match in Westfalen.

After the match, we'll head to Portugal.

Will they come back after playing Portugal?

Yes, he's back, but Tang Ye won't be playing in Westfalen anymore.

"TangYe!"

Boom!

"TangYe!"

Boom!

The players from both sides entered the field, with Tang Ye sitting on the bench.

With all the cameras focused on him, Tang Ye's gaze fell on the south stand.

“Ole~~”

“Ole Ole~~Ola la!!!!”

A giant tifo slowly rose.

Whether it was the effect of the drug or he was genuinely attracted by the tifo, Tang Ye remained completely still for the entire 30 seconds that the tifo was slowly pulled out, his eyes fixed on it.

The guy in the yellow and black jersey in the tifo is indeed Tang Ye, and he is tightly holding a silver championship shield in his hands.

Tang Ye lowered his head and gently kissed the top of the Aegis of Champions.

"TangYe!"

"TangYe! TangYe!"

"Wow!!!!"

"..."

Tang Ye was a little unsure what to say, so he patted Marty on the shoulder and asked, "Marty, could you talk to Ferran for me?" "Say what?"

"I'll go to work early today."

Marty looked at Tang Ye: "No problem. But you need to keep your emotions in check."

"What's wrong?"

"Being too emotional will affect your performance. What if you go out there and ruin the team's game? Do you want to lose and win the trophy?"

"Hahaha!"

The teasing was too obvious. Tang Ye raised his hands to show his innocence: "Okay, I'll try my best, but if I mess up too much, can you please not scold me? I've only been here for a year."

"Shit, haha!"

……

In the 35th minute of the first half, the score was 2-0.

Dortmund's reserve team was leading by two goals, and Tang Ye began his warm-up at that moment.

He stood up from the bench.

Wow!!!

"Tom!"

"Tom! Tom!!!"

The fans are a bit too enthusiastic.

After exchanging high fives with Eskeriva, Tang Ye went to the bench and jogged to warm up.

Wow!!!

Another scream erupted from the stands, and Tang Ye looked towards the stadium.

However, nothing happened on the field.

Perhaps he hadn't noticed, Tang Ye continued his warm-up.

Wow!!!

"..."

Then look towards the stadium.

A perfectly normal backfield pass.

Ok……

Tang Ye suddenly thought of something, so he took the warm-up ball and guessed a small bicycle.

"Wow!!!!"

"..."

Ok.

Tang Ye knew what the fans were screaming about.

"Watch the game carefully!"

Tang Ye shouted towards the stands.

Wow!!!

"Tom!"

"Tom!!!"

"..."

Tang Ye now looks like a helpless teacher.

I want to get the naughty students to listen attentively in class, but those awful students just won't listen.

That's so mean!

"..."

"Tang Ye, you're coming on as a substitute!"

"They switched to Renault!"

As soon as they entered the field, the director immediately turned the camera to the stands, where fans were waving their yellow and black scarves and jerseys around.

A simple substitution resulted in a stronger reaction from the fans in the stands than the goal itself; Dortmund's situation this season is truly something else.

Of course, you can't blame them, because in addition to the Dortmund fans at the stadium, the fans watching the televised broadcast also started to go crazy.

"Tang Ye, pass to the left!"

"Oh, beautiful!"

"They gave it to Reus! Dortmund wants to attack Leverkusen's flanks!"

"..."

"Just kick him!"

"TOOOORR!!!"

Tang Ye's curling shot found the top right corner of the goal with pinpoint accuracy.

"Ha ha!"

With his hands raised, Tang Ye waited for his teammates to run towards him.

"Nice!"

Reus spread his arms and gave Tang Ye a big hug.

"Dortmund are now leading 3-0, and it's the 71st minute of the second half!"

The Dortmund fans in the stands are experiencing very mixed feelings.

Normally, when the home team is leading, you would want the game to end quickly.

But Dortmund fans today don't want the game to end too soon.

It's now the 71st minute of the second half, with about 20 minutes left in the game.

These 20 minutes are Tang Ye's last performance in Westfalen!

The camera focused on Tang Ye.

As Tang Ye strolled through the middle of the stadium, he heard cheers from the fans nearby and raised his hand to greet them.

"Wow!!!!"

"He didn't come on to play football."

Marty joked.

"Ha ha!"

Eskrima laughed heartily: "Then tell me if it's a goal or not."

"..."

"Beep, beep beep—!!!!"

"The match is over!"

"Congratulations to Borussia Dortmund for winning this match 4-1."

The scene was noisy, and Dortmund players rushed up from the substitutes' bench.

Tang Ye walked slowly on the grass and hugged Piszczek.

Witness history!

[Finally, we've won the trophy, brothers!]

【66666】

Starting today, I'm a Dortmund fan!

[Don't be so abstract, I have a feeling you're going to switch to the Manchester United logo at the end of this season.]

After hugging his teammates one by one, Tang Ye, at Haaland's suggestion, performed an extremely long knee slide on the grass.

"Wow!"

"Fuck, haha!"

Bellingham held Tang Ye's head in his arms.

Both the fans at the stadium and the Dortmund supporters were waiting for the staff to set up the podium for Dortmund.

German Bundesliga champion.

This is what's written on the medal; every player has one, even those who haven't played a single official match this season.

"How about it?"

Tang Ye turned to look at Escriva, carefully observing the coach's expression.

He didn't know when it started, but he suddenly became interested in studying Eskeriva's expressions.

"How about what?"

Tang Ye picked up the medal in his hand and pointed to the medal hanging around Eskeriva's neck: "I'm talking about this one."

Haha, it's nothing really.

"Oh! Sir, you're still pretending even at a time like this!"

Tang Ye slapped Eskeriva's arm, then suddenly shouted, "Come here, come here!"

Seeing the Dortmund player charging towards him, Eskrima quickly realized that the situation was not good.

Take a step back.

But by then it was too late.

Tang Ye, Haaland, and Bellingham worked together and easily lifted Eskeriva up.

"Wow!"

"Fran!"

"Fran!"

"Dortmund!"

"Dortmund!"

Wow!!!!

"Hey, put me down! I don't like this, haha!"

Eskeriva is struggling.

"Oh, stop lying, Ferran, just lie there!"

"Dortmund!!!"
