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

Chapter 724 China National Football Team vs. Manchester United
Top post on Dongqiudi: In the first match after the completion of Phoenix Mountain Stadium, Tang Ye led the Chinese national team to face Manchester United!

Phoenix Mountain Sports Center is a stadium newly built in China to host the 2023 AFC Asian Cup, and it fully meets FIFA's requirements for international A-level stadiums.

In other words, Phoenix Hill Stadium does not have a running track!

[Okay, guys, get ready to watch my performance up close!]

[Upstairs, do you have a ticket? Are you going to sell it?]

[No tickets? I'm a security guard. 80 yuan for 4 hours, it'll be awesome!]

[66666, I feel like the Chinese national football team has no chance of winning. Tang Ye could manage against Australia, but against Manchester United it's a bit too much.]

Don't panic, brothers! My big brother B will personally hand you possession!

Phoenix Mountain Sports Center, football field.

"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, and the song of victory is so loud."

"Singing praises to our beloved motherland, from this day forward we march towards prosperity and strength!!!"

"Over the mountains!"

"Cross the plains!"

Fans organized pre-match singing sessions, bringing the atmosphere near the stadium to a fever pitch.

Soon the team bus carrying the Manchester United players arrived. The red bus was decorated with the Devil's crest and the word "MUN".

"Tang Ye!"

"The King of Football is here!"

"GGBond! Haha!"

The fans rushed over, but couldn't find Tang Ye after searching for a long time.

I just remembered that Tang Ye played for the national team today.

Ok.

That's okay too.

"Rodri!"

"Go Rodri!"

"Teng Hah! Ten Hah!"

"Teng Sheng!"

……

Click, click, click!

"Eric, many Chinese fans like to call you 'Teng Sheng'. Do you know what this word means?"

"Ha ha!"

As soon as the Xinhua News Agency reporter raised the question, there was an immediate response on the scene.

Ten Hah did not expect that the first question the reporter would ask was about this.

"Of course... um."

Having frequently studied Chinese football fans in secret, Ten Hag certainly knew the Chinese characters "Teng Sheng".

"To be honest, I'm not really sure."

Ten Hach sighed.

"This word means that you are very capable."

"Oh, thank you."

Ten Hag appeared somewhat surprised, then shrugged matter-of-factly: "I didn't expect to receive so much support from Chinese fans, I'm truly grateful. But I must say, this is all I should do as a Manchester United coach. As for developing Tang..."

"Although I played the biggest role in helping Tang grow into the world's number one, I want to say that you cannot ignore Tang's football talent because of this."

Ten Hach was so serious that the reporters in the audience remained silent.

"Although his talent didn't seem to have a particularly amazing impact compared to the help I gave Tang, the fact is that his talent was a big reason why he got this far."

"Oh!"

The Xinhua News Agency reporter's lips twitched.

[This is a classic!]

[You can actually hear cloud-based fans saying Tang Ye has no talent. And yes, you can hear it from Ten Hag too.]

"So... your opponent today is the Chinese national team led by Tang Ye. We generally believe that there is a significant gap in strength between the Chinese national team and Manchester United. Under these circumstances, what are your considerations?"

"Oh, I don't think Manchester United is that much worse than the Chinese national team. I saw some fans on Top comparing Manchester United to the European China team, and I think that analogy is very apt because I think our strengths are quite similar, not as vastly different as you say."

"..."

"..."

The Xinhua News Agency reporter and Ten Hach stared at each other blankly.

"What I mean is that the Chinese national team is far inferior to Manchester United..."

Ten Hach suddenly realized what was happening and laughed at himself.

"Oh, haha, is that so?"

After adjusting his posture, Ten Hag answered the question: "First of all, I must say that the Chinese national team is a very good team. They are capable of competing for the World Cup title, which is why we chose China as our opponent for the warm-up match."

"As for the huge gap in strength you mentioned, well... I think the Chinese team is capable of handling this issue."

Clap clap clap!

……

"Good evening, everyone! This is the LeSports live broadcast room!"

"This match is the first encounter between the Chinese national team and Manchester United." "Yes, we can see that the fans in the stands are already quite impatient!"

Manchester United has a large fan base in China, but unfortunately, their opponent in this match is the Chinese national team, so they won't be able to get support from Chinese fans.

"Team China!"

"come on!"

"Team China!"

"come on!"

Tang Ye, let's crush Manchester United one more time!

There's only one GGBond in the world, and that's my Tangye Benye!

[China's No. 10 > Manchester United's No. 10, come on Tang Ye!]

[Tell Ten Hag who his father is!]

"Oh, indeed, very enthusiastic, haha!"

The director zoomed in, and the two commentators from LeSports were at a loss for words.

Because Manchester United players don't understand Chinese, fans are much bolder when shouting and writing banners, and Phoenix Hill Stadium is filled with the sound of "Teng Hai".

Fortunately, Ten Hach doesn't understand Chinese, otherwise he would have been heartbroken.

He has been competing with Escriva for years, and has been trying to win over Chinese fans.

The result was this tragic end!
The image is shown to the channel!

"Go Osman!"

Tang Ye pressed one hand against the wall and placed the other on Dembele's shoulder.

"He said he wanted to make 10."

De Jong pointed at Dembele, flashing his signature smile.

"Ha ha!"

Tang Ye tightened his grip on Dembele's neck: "What? How many do you want to score?"

"Oh, no!"

Dembele first berated De Jong for spreading rumors, then begged Tang Ye for forgiveness: "No bullying! No bullying!"

"Hey Tom! There are so many cameras outside, why are you bullying me at this time?"

"Fuck!"

Tang Ye pushed Dembele away: "Get lost. Actually, I don't care how many you want to score, Osman. Do you know why?"

"why?"

"Because you definitely won't make it into the top 10, haha!"

Tang Ye pointed at Dembele's nose: "Watch closely, I'll tell you what 'nearly 10' means."

Two photographers approached slowly through the players' tunnel. At that moment, Tang Ye had one hand on Dembele's shoulder and the other on De Jong, listening intently to Tang Ye's eloquent speech in the middle.

It was just a simple pre-match greeting, but because of Tang Ye's inappropriate actions, sensitive fans misinterpreted the message.

He bribed his opponent before the match using his connections.

Good guy!
GGBond, so this is what kind of person you are!

As the players from both sides walked out of the tunnel, a group of fans near the presidential platform immediately booed them.

"Tang Ye, don't manipulate the game!"

"Let Dembele and De Jong play seriously!"

"Tang Ye, you're too ruthless!"

Tang Ye didn't understand what the fans were saying for a moment, so he could only raise his hand to indicate.

"..."

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Phoenix Mountain Sports Center Football Stadium. This stadium was built in 2019... and completed in 2021..."

"5!"

"4!"

"..."

"1!"

"Beep, beep beep—!!!"

"Alright, everyone, let the match begin!"

"Now I will introduce the starting lineups of both teams, starting with the home team, the Chinese national team!"

China (4-2-3-1)

Goalkeeper: Yan Junling
Defenders: Wang Shenchao, Jiang Guangtai, Yu Dabao, Zhang Linpeng
Midfielders: Zhang Xizhe, Tang Ye, Wu Xi

Forwards: Elkeson, Zhang Yuning, Wu Lei

Head Coach: Li Tie
"Hmm... Tang Ye is playing for the Chinese national team today, and Manchester United's starting center forward has been changed from Tang Ye to Bruno Fernandes."

"We're talking about Big B, there's still a significant gap between this player and Tang Ye."

"So I always felt that this adjustment was not very reasonable, because even if both sides made changes in the attacking midfield position, Manchester United still had an overwhelming advantage over the Chinese team."

"This match will be a significant challenge for the Chinese team."
