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

Chapter 839 Godlike Courtois
Martial showed his two black gloves to the camera.

Ancelotti is now really anxious because Real Madrid's plan is to use Manchester United's strengths to contain them. Simply put, they will press high up the pitch to prevent Manchester United from launching any attacks.

Ancelotti's plan was good; he believed Manchester United's defenders were unreliable and would make mistakes sooner or later.

but!

It wasn't until today's match that Ancelotti realized that it was actually his own defensive players who had faltered first!
Ancelotti reached inside his suit jacket, pulled out a jar of blue stuff, and started pouring it into his mouth.

The Real Madrid manager also likes to chew gum!
However, unlike Tang Ye, Ancelotti is very unrestrained when it comes to chewing gum.

He just poured out at least four or five candies in that last wave.

Who eats so much gum at once!
The Real Madrid manager's mouth kept moving, which made many fans watching the broadcast feel a bit emotional.

In terms of managing pressure, Ancelotti really needs to learn from Ten Hag.

This guy is in such a panic!

"..."

"Vinicius!"

"Beautiful, Vinicius!"

Vinicius Jr. cuts inside and pushes towards the penalty area after taking a one-on-one opportunity against Dalot.

Vinicius's speed is very fast, so the visual impact is very strong.

Bailly dared not directly intercept Vinicius's attack and could only retreat under his pressure.

"Huff... huff huff."

Snapped!
Cross!

Benzema!
Benzema took a shot, which De Gea saved with one hand.

The ball bounced off Bailly's feet, and Vinicius rushed to steal it.

He got the ball!

Snapped!
With a powerful shot, Vinicius Jr. successfully opened the scoring for Manchester United.

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle before the Real Madrid players could even begin celebrating.

"Hey! What's wrong!?"

Vinicius approached the referee: "Why? Why!"

The referee disallowed Vinicius's goal, arguing that he fouled Bailly to steal the ball from him.

"You broke the rules."

the referee said.

Hey!

"Fuck!"

Vinicius shouted loudly and then spread his hands toward the home team's stands, hoping that the Real Madrid fans in the stands would speak up for him.

"The goal stands!"

"The goal stands!"

"You idiot referee, look carefully!"

Judging from the situation on the scene, the decision was indeed very controversial, but the broadcast later showed a replay of Vinicius's goal.

Vinicius's forefoot landed on Bailly's boot, thus gaining possession of the ball before Bailly could react, which was a clear foul.

"Don't do this, don't do this."

Tang Ye stood in front of Vinicius, not wanting the Real Madrid striker to have any further communication with the referee: "It's obvious that you fouled him, don't say anything, bro."

Vinicius pushed Tang Ye away.

"..."

Tang Ye was at his wit's end and could only shrug.

The good news is that the referee did not heed Vinicius's suggestion to change the decision, so the score remains 1-0.

[That scared me! I thought Bailly made a mistake. Ten Hag's lineup today was really smart; if it were Varane, I don't think he would have won that ball.]

[It has to be my King Tang! Tang Ye is too strong!]

[Are you a troll upstairs? Why do you keep posting the same thing? I've seen it so many times. If you're making money, remember to include me, bro. I really want to make this money.]

[Make money off of nothing! Do you think my GGBond are the kind of people who hire online trolls?! Watch out, I'll expose you on Bilibili, and you'll get yelled at!]

Vinicius' breakthrough is indeed impressive, but could you please stop causing trouble...?

"Current possession rate on the field..."

"Wow, Manchester United are in the lead!"

"That's great."

"Yes, actually there wasn't a big difference in the performance of the two teams' forwards. Manchester United's forwards might be slightly better, but it doesn't have much of an impact."

"The problem still lies in the defense of both sides! Real Madrid's defenders made far too many mistakes today."

"Dalot!"

"What a precise long pass! Look at Dembele's first touch."

The full-back made a forward run and delivered a high ball.

It's very difficult to control the ball, but Dembele is currently on Manchester United's right flank, so there's not much to worry about.

Dembele stopped the ball with his right foot, passed it to his left foot, and immediately began to close the distance with the defender.

Tang Ye rushed up from behind Mendy and received a pass from Dembele.

Dembele then cut inside and received a cutback pass from Tang Ye.

Perfect fit!
Looking for Rashford!

Dembele delivered a very precise pass.

Rashford stopped the ball first...

At this point, Rashford and Courtois were less than 5 meters apart.

boom!
Snapped!
"Oh my God!"

"Courtois!"

“This reaction!”

Courtois deflected Rashford's close-range shot over the crossbar.

It might seem like a bluff, but it's undeniably cool that they managed to pull it off.

Rashford stood still.

Everyone else was stunned!
"it's okay no problem!"

Luke Shaw shoved Rashford from behind.

It's just a wasted opportunity; there's no need to worry too much.

Manchester United are now in a dominant position!
"TomTomTom!"

"viva TomTom!"

"viva TomTom!"

Snapped!
Tang Ye took the corner kick, aiming directly at Rodri at the near post.

Rodri and Alaba jumped almost at the same time, and both of them fell down without touching the ball.

De Ligt has the ball.

De Ligt wisely chose to pass the ball back to Dembele, who was waiting on the perimeter.

In that instant, Dembele transformed into his good friend Tang Ye, and on a whim, made a through pass into the penalty area.

Martial!
He almost fell, but Martial still managed to get the shot off.

Snapped!
"Courtois!"

"It's Courtois again!"

Two consecutive saves from the extreme distance inside the penalty area – you can't call that luck anymore, can you?
Courtois's supermodel-like reaction speed allowed him to thwart two sure goals from Manchester United.

"Roar!!!"

Carvajal and Courtois collided chest to chest.

Kurtul is really ruthless. He made two such brilliant saves but didn't get too excited. It was as if it was all perfectly normal.

Pooh!
Tang Ye had already started spitting on the grass.

grandma's.

The defenders' poor form was Real Madrid's fatal problem today.

But the goalkeeper's incredible form made up for this.

As Tang Ye was preparing for the corner kick, he glanced at the substitutes' bench, wanting to see if Ten Hag had made any changes to his decision.

Courtois is in such good form, so playing him as a primary option might be a good choice for Manchester United.

However, Ten Hach did not give any instructions.

The Manchester United manager is cautious and believes it's necessary to wait and see.

At least for now, maintaining attacking intensity seems to be a more prudent approach for Manchester United.

"..."

It was the 30th minute of the first half. By this time, Manchester United had over 60% possession, and in some stages, it even approached 70%.

As Manchester United fans know, this level of possession is quite exaggerated for the club.

With Real Madrid as their opponent, this possession rate was quite remarkable.

Dembele, Rashford, Tang Ye, Dalot, and De Jong were like madmen, either finding teammates to combine with or advancing the ball on their own when they got the ball.

As a counter-attacking team, Manchester United has too many ball control experts, which means that Manchester United can have some of the characteristics of a possession-based team without training.

Then the problem is coming.

How can Manchester United generate meaningful attacks and score real goals when they have possession?

Rashford moved from the left wing to the center, followed by Carvajal.

Out of caution, Modric stayed on the byline to prevent Luke Shaw from suddenly covering the left wing position.

Rashford didn't pass the ball, but just kept dribbling until he met Tang Ye, who was coming up from the right.

Rashford suddenly stopped touching the ball, leaving it to Tang Ye, while he suddenly accelerated to attract the attention of the defenders.

Judging from the situation on the field, Rashford's acceleration was probably aimed at taking Casemiro away.

However, he was a bit too naive. Casemiro had a wealth of experience and was not fooled by Rashford's move at all, continuing to stick to Tang Ye.

Casemiro was delighted, feeling he had figured out Manchester United's attacking tactics.

But Tang Ye found a way to break the deadlock in less than half a second. The Manchester United captain cut inside with his left foot and put the ball directly between Casemiro's legs.

!

It's the master's specialty: the crotch-piercing move!
Knowing something was wrong, Casemiro had no choice but to grab Tang Ye's arm with one hand.

Casemiro is very strong; Tang Ye should have fallen to the ground by now.

However, Tang Ye was stubborn. He felt he had seen an opportunity and refused to fall down at this moment, so he stubbornly resisted Casemiro's pulling.

"?"

Tang Ye staggered a few steps to regain his balance, while Casemiro fell down after letting go.

"Wow!!!!"

“TYTYTY!”

Tang Ye successfully entered the penalty area and, just before Alaba stretched out his foot, stepped in front of the ball with his own body to shield it.

Tang Ye's timing was perfect. Alaba was so startled that he quickly moved his hands and feet, but he couldn't change direction at the moment he pulled his foot back.

Tang Ye's greatest strength is seizing opportunities!
He poked the ball forward with his right foot.

Wow!!!

This is another groin piercing, but this time the one being groin pierced is Alaba.

Tang Ye changed direction, moved laterally, and rushed forward, catching up with the ball before it went out of bounds.

Infinitely close to zero angle...

boom!
He took a shot that hit the goal and went into the net.

Courtois shoved the ball away, and Casemiro quickly cleared it.

The situation has been resolved successfully!
Tang Ye rolled half a circle on the grass, got up, and kicked the billboard, punching a big hole in it.

"Fuck!"

"Fuck!"

"Fuck!"

boom!
Another kick.

"Tang Ye, this..."

"Sigh, indeed. Two consecutive nutmegs, and the final shot from zero angle went straight into the corner. Logically speaking, this ball should not have been saved."

Anyone would be anxious in this situation, let alone a player like Tang Ye with a strong offensive drive.

Tang Ye clutched his head with both hands, his lower molars clenched tightly together.

Good heavens, one attack has completely scorched me to the point of being red and tingly.

"xuuu!!!"

“Cour-tois! Thi-baut Cour-tois! (Courtois)”

“Courtois, Courtois, Courtois! Thibaut Courtois! Hey! Hey!” (Thibaud Courtois)

"..."

【66666】

[Holy crap, that didn't go in? I just watched the game, is this kind of save normal?]

[Wow, those tights are awesome! They've made Tang Qiu Wang (a nickname for a player) red!]

[Incredible! They turned a 0-4 deficit into a 0-1 score. Liu Xing (Alaba) and Mendy are going to have to kneel before Courtois now!]

Tang Ye's dribbling and zero-angle shot deserve a 9.9 rating, enough to be included in a highlight reel.

But he ran into Courtois, who also had a 9.9 rating.

The two 9.9 ratings canceled each other out.

For Tang Ye, the most upsetting thing wasn't that his shot was saved, but that he started to face a collective attack from Real Madrid fans after this brilliant play.

Trying to manipulate Tang Ye's mentality by praising Courtois has likely become the most popular thing for Real Madrid fans for the remainder of the match.

"..."

"Casemiro, tackle!"

"Hey, that's a yellow card. This time he's in deep trouble!"

Tang Ye rolled on the ground repeatedly, while Casemiro stood up with a hint of guilt.

He committed at least four serious fouls against Tang Ye in this game, but was not shown a yellow card because of his advantageous offensive position.

There's no escaping it this time.

Yellow Card: Casemiro.

Casemiro's yellow card is good news for Manchester United, provided that Tang Ye, who was rolling on the ground, can get back up.

"Team doctor!"

"Don't call the team doctor! Don't call the team doctor!"

Rashford was stopped by Tang Ye as soon as he spoke, and could only make a gesture of refusal towards the bench.

Tang Ye slammed his right fist into the grass, then stood up abruptly: "Damn it!"

The ball of the right foot rubs against the grass.

It looks like Casemiro stepped on his ankle.

Are you sure you're okay?

Tang Ye and Rashford gave each other thumbs up, indicating that they were ready to start preparing for a direct free kick.

"Don't be in such a hurry."

Rodri made a special trip over to give Tang Ye some instructions, because he noticed that the captain's condition was becoming increasingly strange.

The more he kicked, the more anxious and angry he became.

A football match is full of details, and if your brain is filled with emotions, you're in big trouble!

"I know, I know, it's okay."

Tang Ye signaled to his teammates to hurry to the penalty area, while he and Rashford began to discuss the possibility of a direct free kick.

"I just called it."

Tang Ye covered his mouth as he spoke.

"...Why don't you calm down?"

Remembering what Rodri had just said, Rashford also felt that Tang Ye was being a bit too hasty.

"It's okay, that's all."

There's nothing I can do now that the captain has said that; Rashford is truly at a loss.

"..."

"This is Manchester United's second direct free kick opportunity in the game, and this time it's a combination of Tang Ye and Rashford."

“I think Manchester United can slow down their attacking pace a bit now. Well, because they are currently the ones leading, and we'd say Tang Ye's mentality is also a bit off.”

"Of course, it depends on how the players on the field make their decisions."

Beep!
After the referee blew the whistle, Tang Ye did not immediately take a running start, but instead looked into Courtois' eyes through the gaps in the wall of men.

"?"

Take a running start!

boom!
With his knees locked, the ball, with almost no spin, rose up over the wall of players and then began to fall at high speed.

Courtois took a step before jumping.

Stretch your hand as far as you can!
boom!
Tang Ye's elevator was stuck at the intersection of the upper right post and the crossbeam of the goal.

Because the impact was so great, the net caught the ball but then released it.

“GOOO—AAAA—LLLL!!!”
