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

Chapter 725 The players on the field were all confused.

Baidu's No.1 trending search: Tang Ye leads the Chinese national football team against Manchester United.

The Chinese national football team versus Manchester United seems to have a huge gap in strength.

but!

With Tang Ye leading the national football team, if you think about it carefully, you'll realize...

Okay, actually the gap is still quite large.

In Tang Ye's own words, football is a sport for 11 people.

While GGBond completely outclassed Bruno Fernandes in his matchup, how are you going to make up for the gap in the remaining 10 positions?

Imagine Tang Ye is a student being questioned by his teacher.

Even if Tang Ye were a math master, an economics master, and a football master, it wouldn't matter.

He couldn't answer that question!

"Actually, well... I feel that the Chinese team still has a certain hope in this game. I don't mean the hope of winning, but I mean the hope of finding some attacking opportunities."

Zhan Jun said he was a little afraid of being cyberbullied.

"We're talking about Manchester United; there are some players in certain positions who are really unreliable!"

"Oh, yes!"

He Wei looked at Zhan Jun beside him and joked, "What we need to do now is wait for Manchester United players to make a super, super, super huge mistake, that will be China's chance!"

"Oh, we were just talking about mistakes, and now here comes one!"

"Dembele's pass was so abstract, it was a direct pass to Wu Xi!"

Wu Xi!

Dembele's pass rolled in a small arc to Wu Xi, who slowed down and caught the ball steadily.

"Don't stop!"

Just as Wu Xi stopped the ball, Tang Ye's voice came immediately.

Wu Xi's transition speed after receiving the ball was too slow, which Tang Ye believes disrupted the offensive rhythm.

Under pressure from Tang Ye, Wu Xi quickly increased his speed and stepped forward to make a run into the court.

"okok!"

Tang Ye quickly moved to Wu Xi's left front, positioned himself to spot De Rong, and then reached out to Wu Xi: "Give it to me!"

Upon receiving a pass from his teammate, Tang Ye gently pulled back and turned to the side, creating a one-on-one situation with De Jong.

"This is a good opportunity... Tang Ye has good ball control skills, let's see how he plans to handle this ball!"

"Oh! Still choosing to play it safe! Tang Ye, tsk!"

Although Tang Ye has good ball control, even Tang Ye cannot guarantee that he will beat De Jong in a one-on-one situation.

Although the fans in the stands were chanting GGBond's name, GGBond was not in a hurry to show off.

Zhan Jun's click of the tongue was an affirmation of Tang Ye's abilities.

That was such a mature style of play!

That's what a master is!

Tang Ye executed a one-two pass and received the ball behind De Jong.

"Take a look!"

De Jong pointed at Tang Ye, signaling for De Ligt to come up.

However, the Manchester United defender did not heed his teammates' advice because he had a premonition.

Tom should shoot!

With his left leg out, Tang Ye unleashed a powerful shot directly towards the goal.

Wow!!!

boom!
Tang Ye's shot hit De Ligt's head.

"Oh!!!"

Beep beep beep beep beep!

"Depend on!"

The shot was blocked, and Tang Ye shook his hand.

The gap in strength is too large. Tang Ye's plan is to score a goal first when the opponent is not paying attention at the start of the game, which will reduce the pressure a lot.

But his shooting intention seemed a little too obvious!
"Tang Ye! Keep it up!"

"Tang Ye!"

"King Tang!!!"

Ten Hag strolled in front of the substitutes' bench, glancing occasionally toward the Chinese team's bench.

By chance, through a spider-like connection, Tenhach and Li Tie locked eyes.

"..."

After nodding in acknowledgment, Ten Hah turned his head back, feeling a little uneasy for some reason.

This Chinese man likes to blow air into his hair.

Dude, can't you be a little more efficient?

If you had been more capable, that guy Eskeriva wouldn't have become the head coach of the Chinese national team!

boom!
"Great job! Zhang Xizhe!"

"A perfect steal!"

"Jiang Guangtai is coming up from behind!"

"Manchester United's performance today was a bit disappointing. They conceded two attacking opportunities to China right from the start!"

A scream erupted at Phoenix Mountain Stadium as Jiang Guangtai, coming up to receive a through pass from Zhang Xizhe, while other players on the Chinese team rushed forward.

Jiang Guangtai began to slow down!
Switch to your dominant foot!
Snapped!
A long pass was sent out, targeting Wang Shenchao who was making a run down the right flank!
"past!"

Tang Ye shouted, and Wu Xi, upon receiving the instruction, quickly moved towards Wang Shenchao's direction.

Inverted triangle!
Snapped!
Wu Xi was supposed to be the one receiving the pass, but it was actually Tang Ye who received it.

Manchester United's highly deceptive inverted triangle formation rendered the defensive line of Rodri and Bruno Fernandes virtually nonexistent.

Tang Ye jumped up in place as the pass came rushing towards him.

boom!
Backheel flick!
Inside the restricted area!

Zhang Yuning!
!!!

Zhang Yuning and Martinez bumped into each other.

Unexpectedly, Martinez's physical strength was so great; Zhang Yuning almost didn't make contact with him.

Fortunately, we managed to get the ball in the end!
Zhang Yuning!
boom!
Zhang Yuning's shot hit Heaton's arms.

"what!!!"

"it's okay no problem!"

Seeing that his shot missed, Zhang Yuning lowered his head in frustration in the penalty area.

[Damn Heaton, why is he so wide? He blocked my shot, which was supposed to be a Champions League winner! Doesn't winning the Champions League count for him?!]

[Tang Ye could actually fight directly, but he probably wouldn't be able to get in; his body probably wouldn't be able to adjust.]

The skill gap is too big... Rhodes's holding back is hilarious, he's trying to pretend he's working really hard.

Go Tang Ye! We're counting on you! Today we'll witness a miracle of 1v11!

I don't know which guy posted the keyword "1v11" in the comments section, but soon the poster and bullet comments were flooded with content related to "1v11".

It's a bit of an exaggeration, but of course everyone was just joking.

The fans are joking.

Tang Ye truly believed he could do it!

"come on! Come on!"

Shout a few times, then clap your hands hard.

As captain, Tang Ye naturally had to boost the team's morale.

"Be bold, it's okay! It's okay to make a mistake!"

21th minute!

After taking a beating, the Manchester United players became a little more serious.

The effect was obvious; De Jong made a run past Tang Ye and Wu Xi, successfully reaching the Chinese team's half of the court.

Snapped!
The through ball is played, aimed at Dembele making a forward run!

Wow!!!

Without holding back against Wang Shenchao, Dembele accelerated past the Chinese team's full-back.

Realizing something was wrong, Jiang Guangtai came out of the restricted area and then went back inside.

He needs to maintain a certain distance from Dembele to prevent the French striker from easily getting past him.

The distance left behind also gave Dembele room to maneuver.

Dembele glanced at the middle of the field.

He didn't say anything, but his teammates understood what he meant.

"Dembele... deflects towards the baseline!"

"Let's take a look at Jiang Guangtai's one-on-one defense. Wang Shenchao is back, and Dembele needs to make a decision quickly!"

"We can aim for a zero angle!"

"Hey! An inverted triangle!"

The pass was passed in a triangular fashion to Bruno Fernandes in the middle.

Done!

Tang Ye rushed over quickly, but it was too late.

Bruno Fernandes gently lobbed the ball into the penalty area, and Haller headed it into the net.

The ball went in!
"24th minute of the first half, Sebastian Haller!"

Manchester United have scored first!

With the score at 1-0, Yan Junling stood on the goal line, utterly dejected.

"it's okay no problem."

Yu Dabao hugged Yan Junling's head and gently kissed the latter's hair.

"come on!"

Go China!

"Yan Junling!"

"Go, Tang Ball King!"

Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang!

The score was 0-1, with the opponent scoring the first goal.

It might seem like a bad result, but Chinese fans actually anticipated it.

For the Chinese team, avoiding a 0-5 defeat would be considered a success. Therefore, the players on the field don't need to feel so much pressure.

"It's alright, Yan Junling!"

"come on! Come on!"

The good results of the 18 World Cup and the 19 Asian Cup have made Chinese fans more patient with the national football team players.

As long as we play well in the official matches and qualify for the World Cup, then no matter how the warm-up matches go, there will be great scholars to debate with us afterwards!

35th minute!

De Jong made a mistake in the attacking third, giving Manchester United a chance.

Zhang Xizhe accelerated forward, won the ball, and immediately looked for Tang Ye's position.

found it!
"Front!"

boom!
A through ball is played!

Zhang Xizhe's through ball was perfectly timed, finding Tang Ye right at his feet.

Tang Ye certainly had to seize such a great opportunity!

"He wants to fight directly!"

Heaton shouted.

At this moment, Tang Ye had already raised his right leg.

boom!
duang!

A world-class shot slammed into the crossbar.

It bounced on the grass and then went into the goal.

Goal!!!!

"Tang Ye!"

"Oh my goodness, haha!"

"1-1! The Chinese team and Manchester United are temporarily tied at home!"

Wow!!!

Amidst screams from the stands, Tang Ye quickly ran out.

As I approached the stands, all I could hear were words like "awesome" and "king of football."

1: 1.

This score is absolutely wonderful!
Manchester United scored a goal, which proves they didn't throw the game too much.

The Chinese team also scored a goal, which shows that the Chinese players performed very well.

Okay, now if we cover up the match time, the result is China 1-1 Manchester United.

Damn!

Looking at this score, who can judge whether Manchester United or the Chinese national team is stronger?
Tang Ye took off his shirt and showed off his muscles below the stands.

"Score one more!"

"King Tang, lead us to play in the Premier League!"

"Not enough, I don't want to draw with Manchester United!"

The fans put pressure on Tang Ye very effectively.

"Hey! Isn't that awesome!?"

Tang Ye shrugged, looked at Wu Lei beside him, and the two of them shook their heads together.

"..."

"Although there is a significant gap in strength, we have seen that Wu Lei and Zhang Yuning are actually able to keep up with Tang Ye's pace at certain times."

"Yes, their technical skills and awareness haven't fully reached the level of the top five leagues, but Wu Lei and Zhang Yuning's thorough understanding of Tang Ye makes up for that."

"So, as I said on CCTV before, I'm quite optimistic about Wu Lei, Zhang Yuning, and Jiang Guangtai..."

"B. Fernandes, a through ball, just scoop it out!"

"They gave Dalot the bottom card!"

With dribbling and slight changes in pace, Dalot reached the vicinity of the baseline.

The cross hit Jiang Guangtai directly.

It was slightly appetizing, but Jiang Guangtai's reaction was poor, and the ball that was hit eventually returned to Dalot's feet.

Give a shout to De Jong in the back!

De Jong passes to Rodri!

After a series of maneuvers, Manchester United switched the ball to the left wing.

Mata!

Accelerating down the flank, Mata delivered a cross under pressure.

Ale provided cover in the penalty area, and Dalot suddenly surged forward and poked the ball into the net.

The ball went in!
Manchester United's second goal of the match!
"Holy shit."

"Hoohoo!"

In front of the bench, Li Tie blew on the front of his hair.

He was very dissatisfied with the performance of several of the team's defensive players.

Especially Zhang Xizhe and Wu Xi in the defensive midfield position!

Li Tie now only wants to go back to 15 years ago, when he could stand on the field as a player.

The Chinese national football team has a strong attacking midfielder, but that's not enough!
They need a boy who blows the wind.

A defensive midfielder with exceptional defensive coverage.

That's right, that person is Li Tie!

Unfortunately, time cannot be turned back. When Li Tie was at his peak, Tang Ye was not even 10 years old.

This is probably what the saying "kings don't meet" means!

"Beep!"

A foul by the Chinese team in their own half gave Manchester United a direct free kick opportunity.

Alai picked up the ball from the grass and, seeing Tang Ye slowly running towards him, offered him the ball.

Without much thought, Tang Ye reached out and took the ball, spun it around in his hand a few times, and walked toward the white line drawn by the referee.

"Eh!"

Dembele suddenly shouted, and Tang Ye turned around, hiding his hand to signal Dembele to attack from the baseline.

"What are you fighting for, Tom!"

Dembele ran over and pointed at the somewhat bewildered Chinese players in the penalty area: "You're from the other side!"

"Oh, shit!"

Realizing what was happening, Tang Ye quickly dropped the ball and kept waving his hand in front of the camera.

Damn it, I almost fooled myself.

"It's okay, you kick it."

Rodri picked up the ball again and reached out to hand it to Tang Ye: "You've done a good job for us, good luck!"

"Come on! Do it yourself!"

Tang Ye pushed Rodri away and quickly ran to his actual teammates.

"Why did you kick it to the other side...?"

"Be prepared for a counterattack."

Tang Ye interrupted Wu Xi, who was trying to tease him.

"what happened?"

"They're unlikely to score from their free kicks. Tell Bao Ge and the others to get the ball out of the box as soon as possible."

Tang Ye patted Wu Xi on the back: "We can play counter-attacks, we can score on counter-attacks!"

To overcome the strong with the weak.

As a professional counter-attacking expert, Tang Ye certainly knew the best way to defeat the strong with the weak.

That's right, it's a counterattack!
"Beep!"

"B. Just kick him!"

"Oh, Bruno Fernandes' free kick hit Zhang Xizhe!"

Seeing that the opponent's free kick was blocked, Tang Ye accelerated and rushed out.

Zhang Xizhe also handled the situation very cleverly, dribbling the ball a short distance ahead to prevent Manchester United players from intercepting it from behind.

Tang Ye quickly ran up past Zhang Xizhe!
Tang Ye was being watched by someone!

Zhang Xizhe first passed the ball to Wang Shenchao, who then helped pass it to Tang Ye.

Snapped!
Wow!!!

Without the slightest hesitation, Tang Ye made a long pass to Wu Lei, who was in the lead.

A one-on-one opportunity!

"..."

"Penalty! It's a penalty!"

"Wu Lei's shot hit Martinez's hand!!!"

“Beep beep beep!!!”

A chance to equalize the score appeared, and the stadium was buzzing with excitement. Wu Lei walked towards Tang Ye with the ball in his arms, but Tang Ye simply pointed to the team's striker, indicating that Wu Lei should handle the penalty kick himself.

However, Wu Lei insisted that Tang Ye play, saying that warm-up matches should simulate actual matches in order to achieve good training results.

Since Wu Lei said so, Tang Ye had no choice but to reach out and take the ball.

"Beep!!"

"Tang Ye, your opponent is Heaton!"

"Although he's the second-choice goalkeeper, Heaton's penalty-saving ability is actually quite strong..."

Both teams' players made preparations to sprint outside the penalty area.

Tang Ye begins his running start!
Snapped!
A powerful shot found the top corner!
"Vamos!!!"

Rodri raised his right hand, accelerated, and rushed over to hug Tang Ye from behind.

"Great! Tom... um?"

Just after shouting, Rodri suddenly realized something and stood awkwardly on the grass, receiving the gaze of tens of millions of Chinese fans.

The conditioned reflex belongs to yes.

That was Tom's penalty kick.

But Tom isn't a Manchester United player today!!!
