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

Chapter 794 Oman is getting stronger and stronger, and Ivankovic has betrayed the Chinese team!
Cristiano Ronaldo said in an interview: He will not comment on the Asian Cup qualifiers, but he would be happy for his teammates if they qualify for the World Cup; being a substitute is a tactical requirement, but he thinks that tactical requirements are not always correct.

Rodri: The Chinese team is undoubtedly great, and I wouldn't be surprised if they become the first team besides Qatar to qualify for the World Cup finals.

Top post on Dongqiudi: Has the Chinese national football team secured a spot in the World Cup finals ahead of schedule? If the UAE defeats or draws with Oman, the Chinese team will directly qualify for the World Cup finals. (Hot)

No. 3: China at the Qatar World Cup.

……

After defeating Vietnam away from home, the Chinese team departed for Saudi Arabia as planned.

To be honest, Chinese football players are under a lot of pressure right now.

The reasons are twofold. First, it is due to Eskeriva's strict requirements.

Because the Chinese team has not made any progress in the Asian Cup qualifiers so far, the players have been heavily criticized.

Fortunately, Eskeriva is not Ten Hag, otherwise the Chinese national football players would probably be out of breath on the plane.

Another aspect is the World Cup.

Thanks to extensive media coverage, the buzz surrounding the Chinese national football team's early qualification for the World Cup finals has begun to build, something the players on the team least want to see.

As the situation escalates, fans, or rather, casual observers, naturally increase their expectations for the Chinese team.

It would be embarrassing if we didn't make it into the World Cup!

"Brother Lei, what are you so nervous about?"

Tang Ye looked at Wu Lei, who was sitting diagonally in front of him. The Chinese national team striker was wearing a U-shaped pillow. Although he was lying down, he wasn't sleeping.

"The World Cup! Just thinking about knowing the results after the match on February 1st makes me so excited I can't sleep."

"Haha, I was so nervous I couldn't sleep."

"Then what can be done?"

Wu Lei readily accepted Zhang Yuning's teasing.

Nervousness is nervousness, and there's really no way to avoid it. After all, the World Cup only comes around once every four years, and the Chinese team participates in the World Cup far less frequently than teams like Japan and South Korea.

"It's okay, don't be nervous."

Tang Ye crossed his legs: "Once the UAE takes down Oman, we'll send them on a direct aid mission."

"Ha ha!"

"impossible!"

Wu Xi seemed to have great faith in Oman: "I really feel that Oman can win; their lineup is quite strong."

"The UAE isn't bad either."

Tang Ye said, "I'm guessing it will be 2-0. The UAE will shut out Oman by two goals, and then we'll qualify for the World Cup before we play Saudi Arabia."

"Ha ha!"

"You'll find out when you watch the game at the hotel."

Tang Ye set up the small table and then took out a bag of puzzles from his backpack.

"Wow, I didn't know you liked puzzles."

Zhang Yuning watched from the side and said, "Is this jigsaw puzzle really difficult? They're all so small."

"Yes, I haven't succeeded yet."

Tang Ye touched his nose, opened the bag and placed it on his lap, studying the things on the table.

"Isn't this boring?"

Zhang Yuning and Ai Kesen were both watching Tang Ye do a jigsaw puzzle.

In their view, this was clearly a pointless endeavor. Especially the puzzle Tang Ye had chosen; it was obvious how difficult it was.

"boring."

As he spoke, Tang Ye's eyes began to wander, and he quickly shook his head.

"But I'm using this for training, to train my concentration."

"Oh! So that's what it is. Hey, haha, I thought you liked to play games."

So it turns out it's for treating ADHD. Zhang Yuning sat down and thought, "How long will it take you to finish this? I feel like even someone without ADHD might not be able to finish it."

"It seems to take about 3 hours, but I'm not sure. You don't have to finish the whole thing. I'm the kind who keeps track of time, like how much you have to complete in half an hour or an hour."

"major."

Zhang Yuning gave Tang Ye a thumbs up.

Since it was something used to treat illnesses, Zhang Yuning decided not to bother Tang Ye and started browsing the news on her phone.

Repost: YouTube blogger analyzes Cristiano Ronaldo's micro-expressions: The Portuguese star may be experiencing social anxiety.

"This……"

Zhang Yuning's eyes widened, wanting to ask Tang Ye about things related to Cristiano Ronaldo.

But seeing Tang Ye intently searching for the puzzle piece, Zhang Yuning decided to give up for the time being.

Cristiano Ronaldo is experiencing social anxiety...

I suspect this YouTuber is just trying to grab attention, but after watching the videos, he really does analyze Ronaldo's micro-expressions very well, making him seem like a CIA agent.

Furthermore, this blogger concluded that the relationship between Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Ye may not be as good as fans imagine.

After all, fans are fans. They only have a god-like perspective when watching the game. At other times, such as during training at the training base or eating in the cafeteria, these are things that fans cannot see with the naked eye.

However, after considering everything, to be honest, Zhang Yuning didn't particularly believe what this blogger said.

……

The Sun's front-page headline: TY's PPBond (abbreviation: PPBD) is listed on the London Stock Exchange with an estimated market capitalization of £2.3 million. The total number of shares issued in the initial offering is unknown, and the share price is estimated to be between £5 and £15.

PS: PPBond is a diversified business under TY, covering businesses such as clothing, furniture, and budget hotels. Its CEO is Paul (a TY agent).

According to PPBBond, if the company successfully lists on the London Stock Exchange, TY is expected to become the largest shareholder (20% to 25%). This move is seen as a great deal of trust in TY’s management of the company, and he has great confidence in the success of the business.

"In addition, after completing the financing through the IPO, PPB Bond committed to developing two new business lines: insurance and mortgage loans. Of course, the company's main business remains clothing and furniture."

“We believe Tom’s celebrity status will help the company’s new business, which could become the next ‘ten-bagger’ on the London Stock Exchange,” CEO Paul said in an interview.

Many fans were stunned when they saw this news.

This Bol is really something else. He went from being an agent to running his own company, and the most amazing thing is that he actually made it successful.

Upon closer examination, Paul is a typical example of a business tycoon. He first became one of the most famous agents in Europe through his business dealings, but then realized that he was no match for those established agents, so he chose to take a risky approach.

From the current perspective, Boll is on the right track.

Although listed on the London Stock Exchange, most of Pop Bond's business, such as clothing and furniture, is geared towards the Asia-Pacific market, or to put it more bluntly, China.

A T-shirt with the Tangye logo costs only 59 yuan, and it's even an authentic one. Who wouldn't be confused by that?

What is a budget hotel? I've never seen one before. Is it a GG Hotel?

GGBond, please stop tagging me, I'm really out of money (crying) (crying)

[This Boll is a real genius! Listing before the World Cup, then raising £10 billion to play the loan game, right?] [Loans? Use your imagination! The name sounds so weird. What if they just open a betting business? Wouldn't that be outrageous?]

It seems Tang Ye can't open a gambling business before retiring, unless he stops being the largest shareholder, but 20% definitely makes him the largest shareholder.

[Marking this down. I feel there's potential, but it's a bit frustrating that China can't buy British stocks. Could Tang Qiuwang (a famous Chinese sports commentator) also list on the A-share market and become a ten-bagger to save the retail investors?]

Because Tang Ye's weekly wage has remained around £50, many fans have criticized Ball for being incompetent and unable to secure a weekly wage like Messi's for Tang Ye.

It now seems the fans were wrong.

Damn, this Boll has changed his development path, going straight to the London Stock Exchange to reap 20 billion fans in the European and Asian markets.

The Sun editor: I am very optimistic about PPBond. I will buy at least £5 worth of shares after PPBond goes public to show my support for TY.

Mbappe retweeted Tang Ye's social media post about PPBond's IPO: "Excellent company, stock worth buying."

Bohr and Tang Ye's move was indeed a bit outrageous. The company's estimated market value was less than £30 million, but they managed to generate the buzz of a company with a market value of over £3 billion going public.

The most ridiculous thing is that PPBond's market value of £2.3 million is still an estimate, which means you have no idea how much the company is worth right now.

From the perspective of Chinese fans, apart from buying a few GG T-shirts for 59 yuan, they can't find any trace of PPPBond anywhere else.

Thinking about this, many fans couldn't help but worry about the British.

Are they going to get exploited by GGBond?
How pitiful!

"Shoot! Shoot!"

"Hold the grass!"

"That UAE defender is a fucking idiot! Shoot!"

The hotel conference room was bustling with noise, filled with the shouts of the national football team players and the sound of them banging on the table.

Zhang Yuning covered his head with his hands: "No way, is the UAE putting on a show? I'm so damn shocked, can't they beat Oman?"

"Oh no, guys."

Tang Ye touched his nose, looking at the current score of 3:2, and was not in a good mood.

The match has reached the 82nd minute, and Oman is still leading the UAE by one point.

It's not a big deal that Oman beat the UAE; the important thing is that if Oman gets another 3 points, the Chinese team won't be able to advance directly in the 7th round.

"I think it's probably gone."

Zhang Linpeng stood watching TV, shaking his head repeatedly: "Oman is in such good form. They weren't in such good form when they were playing against us."

Escriva remained silent, but his expression revealed that the Spanish coach was not satisfied with the current score.

"This is what I said before (in Spanish)."

After Eskeriva finished speaking, he realized that no one was paying attention to him, and then he found that the translator had gone to the toilet, so he switched back to English.

"This is what I said before: all teams are improving, except us."

"Our advantage was built up in the first half of the season, in the first five rounds. We didn't play as well in the last few rounds."

Pointing at the TV: "Oman is the most obvious example. Blanco (Ivankovic) is a smart guy, and Oman is playing well right now."

"Tang, aren't you a fan of Ivankovic? Give him a call and tell him to stop playing so aggressively and let the other team have a turn."

Zhang Yuning nudged Tang Ye.

"This has nothing to do with me! I was just bragging."

"Ha ha!"

Seeing that his teammates and coach were in low spirits, Tang Ye comforted them: "It's okay, brothers. We're about to play Saudi Arabia. It doesn't really matter if we advance a little later. We can't put our fate in other people's hands!"

"Hey, that's not what you said before!"

Zhang Yuning pointed at Tang Ye: "Didn't you say the UAE was guaranteed to win?"

"Haha, I misjudged... Don't blame me, we'll just have to beat Saudi Arabia in the next game."

After speaking, Tang Ye took out his phone and checked the current points leaderboard.

2022 Qatar World Cup Asian Qualifiers Final Round Group B Standings (as of Round 7, assuming Oman defeats the UAE):
1. China, 19 points.

2. Japan, 15 points.

3. Oman, 10 points.

4. Saudi Arabia, 7 points.

5. UAE, 3 points.

6. Vietnam, 3 points.

“Oman has 7+3, which is 10 points... and we have 9 more points than them.”

"That's right!"

Tang Ye shrugged: "As long as we don't get 0 points against Saudi Arabia, we're guaranteed to advance. 20 or 22 points will be enough."

"Can you communicate in English?"

Turning my head around, I saw that it was Eskeriva who was speaking.

The Spanish coach is in a very bad position because he has no idea what his players are talking about.

Although the translator would be back from the restroom soon, there was a huge difference between hearing the players talk directly and hearing it relayed through a translator.

"That's what I said, as long as we don't lose to Saudi Arabia, we're safe." (in Spanish)

Tang Ye started working as a freelance translator.

He meant well, but Eskeriva said something to him.

"So you think we can easily beat Saudi Arabia, Tom?"

"The Saudi Arabia of today is not the same as the Saudi Arabia of the past."

"Okay, okay, I know, you've said this many times, Ferran. Of course I know, but I'm just doing calculations, not about the team's strength, just pure math. We'll have it in the bag if we get one more point."

After saying that, Tang Ye spoke to Zhang Yuning in Chinese: "He is indeed under a lot of pressure."

"Ah."

Zhang Yuning agreed with Tang Ye's words.

After playing against Vietnam, Eskeriva kept comparing the first and second halves of the season, repeatedly emphasizing the fact that the Chinese team had not improved while other teams had improved rapidly.

7轮6胜1平，总积19分排名小组第一，领先第二名日本4分。

Only a coach with a personality like Escriva would get nervous in this situation.

"It's alright, sir, you're guaranteed to win."

Tang Ye tapped his chest.

"Hey, you said on the plane that the UAE was guaranteed to win."

"Haha! That was a mistake. I didn't know Oman was suddenly so strong, but my judgment was definitely correct. Trust me, Brother Ning, I'm not lying to you. And look, the game isn't over yet, the UAE might just score the winning goal."
