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

Chapter 96: When fellow villagers meet, I’m sorry!

In May, Utrecht's first team resumed their training.

However, before today's training, Ten Hag held a small meeting with the players.

Utrecht currently has 3 points more than second-placed PSV Eindhoven in the standings.

With three more points in two games, Utrecht's league title looks secure.

Actually not.

PSV has a whopping 55 goal difference, and when the points are the same, the team ranking is based on the goal difference.

That is to say, if Utrecht loses one of the next two games and PSV Eindhoven wins both games, Utrecht will lose their first place.

Tremendous stress!

"So why do they have such a big goal difference?"

On the court, Tang Ye raised his doubts.

"It's not important, it's not important"

Ten Hag waved his hand: "The important thing is that we need to win the next game. Do you understand what I mean? Two wins in a row, then our championship is secure!"

Eredivisie champions!

It was exciting just to hear it, and Tang Ye had already started rubbing his hands silently.

If he can really win the Eredivisie championship, then his ultimate template will be revealed.

The superstar and legendary templates are already amazing.

Tang Ye was really looking forward to what this so-called ultimate template would include!
……

On the day of the match against Vitesse, Utrecht's players took a bus to Arnhem, where Vitesse's home ground is located.

"Tang Ye?"

In the player tunnel, Tang Ye was stopped just as he was about to enter the locker room.

When I turned around, I saw a man with an Asian face opposite me.

"Oh, I remember you! I remember you, Zhang, Zhang..."

He was very excited to meet a fellow villager, but Tang Ye just couldn't think of the name of the person sitting opposite him.

"It's Zhang Yuning, haha!"

Zhang Yuning hugged Tang Ye who was walking over. He was about 1 meters tall, slightly taller than Tang Ye.

But both of them are still in the development stage.

"Fuck, I know you, I saw you on Doqiudi!"

Tang Ye said that this was a habit he developed in China, and he would open the app to check it out whenever he had nothing to do.

He knew that besides himself, there was another Chinese player playing in the Eredivisie, but he only met him today.

"I played against Vitesse before, were you there then?"

Tang Ye suddenly remembered that it was already the end of the season. According to the league system, Utrecht must have played against Vitesse once before.

“I was promoted from U2 in February.”

Zhang Yuning explained: "By the way, where are you from?"

"Foshan, you're welcome"

Tang Ye blinked his eyes. There was also someone with the surname Zhang in his family, but he didn't know who was Zhang Yuning...

“I’m from Wenzhou”

"Wenzhou, damn, there is a Wenzhou restaurant next to my base, what a pity, you should also come to Utrecht"

"Wenzhou restaurant?"

Tang Ye smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I often go there to eat. They have wontons, sweet and sour pork ribs, and... basically everything you can eat in China is available there."

"Hahaha, sure, sure, but I really don't feel like eating right now."

Zhang Yuning's expression suddenly became serious: "I still have to find a way to get the starting lineup, but Tang Ye, you are really awesome, the Dutch Cup champion, I watched your game on TV"

"Ha ha!"

Two players from China, one 17 and one 18, had so many topics to talk about. It was a pity that Zhang Yuning didn't play games very often, otherwise Tang Ye would have been able to chat with him until the end of the game.

"TOM!"

Ten Hahe shouted.

"I have to go first bro, add me on WeChat after the game is over!"

Tang Ye patted Zhang Yuning on his thick shoulders and then hurriedly caught up with the team.

“He and you are both Asian?”

Ramserall pointed at Zhang Yuning who was waving to Tang Ye from behind.

“Not just Asia, but a country”

Tang Ye answered and took out his mobile phone to check Zhang Yuning's information on Dongqiudi.

"Wow, he is only one year older than me, one year and two months"

"But he has much more muscle than you, Tom, and you're too skinny."

Ramseral grabbed Tang Ye's arm hard.

……

"Welcome back, brothers. This is the 33rd round of the Eredivisie, where Utrecht plays away against Vitesse!"

"Remind you guys, these are Utrecht's last two games of the season, so hurry up if you want to make money"

"The game has already started, King Tang is still in the starting lineup. I would like to introduce you to the starting lineup of the home team Vitesse, but I don't think it is necessary."

[I understand. The host can’t remember the name.]

"It's not that I can't remember the name, it's mainly because there is a surprise on the bench today for Vitesse. You will know in a moment."

Wang Chao is waiting for the director to cut the shot.

The game had been going on for about 12 minutes when the director's camera turned to the Vitesse bench, where Zhang Yuning, wearing a yellow vest, was sitting on a chair.

[What the hell? Chinese?]

[Awesome, who is this? ]

"Zhang Yuning, like Tang Ye, was promoted from below. Unfortunately, Zhang Yuning is still a substitute. I don't know if Tang Ye and Zhang Yuning will have a chance to play against each other in today's game!"

Real-time match report from the Football Emperor: Round 33 Vitesse vs. Utrecht, Tang Ye and Zhang Yuning’s hometown reunion.

The top post of the football expert: Foshan VS Wenzhou, the Eredivisie staged a Chinese civil war!
The appearance of Zhang Yuning has further increased the popularity of this game in China.

Now the fans are expecting Zhang Yuning to play, and some have even gone to Vitesse's official website to leave messages to buy jerseys.

Tang Ye may leave next season, so this is probably the last chance for the Eredivisie to realize a civil war among Chinese players.

The game is in the 21st minute!

"Ramcelar!"

"Long pass directly to Barazite!"

"Barazit crosses!"

"Give it to Alai!"

"Alai will leave it to Tang Ye!"

"Tang Ye, do you want to just knock on the door?"

"Tang Ye chose to play it safe, how do we deal with it?"

"To Josten!"

"The ball is in!"

"This is the...23rd minute of the game!"

"In the 23rd minute, Utrecht scored the first goal!"

The home team fans in the stands were chattering.

Although a goal was scored, the home team fans did not show much grief.

This is because the league rankings have been almost determined at the end of the season, and Vitesse has completed the task of relegation, so the win or loss of this game is not particularly important to them.

There is another aspect, that is, their opponent is Utrecht!
Utrecht has always been inexplicably strong this season. Even strong teams such as Ajax, Feyenoord, and PSV Eindhoven cannot get any advantage at the hands of Utrecht.

Facing Utrecht, which is in such a terrible state, Vitesse fans actually don't have much hope of winning.

……

"Tang Ye, move forward with the ball!"

"Looking for Alai!"

"..."

"Wow! The ball goes in! 2:0!"

"Although Tang Ye's shot was saved by the goalkeeper, Kleber reacted quickly and it was a follow-up shot!"

"Perfect follow-up shot, 2:0!"

"Brothers, I feel like Utrecht has secured the win in this game!"

[Witts is going to be beaten up][Awesome, I, King of Ball, didn’t get an assist on this ball, what a pity! ]

[What a joke! I, Tang, am the assists king in the Eredivisie. I don’t even bother to brush up my stats.]

[When will Zhang Yuning play? Is it because the brothers haven’t bought enough jerseys? ]

[I guess they all went to Putian to buy it, Vitesse didn’t see the money]

The first half almost went in Utrecht's favor.

Vitesse itself is not a team that is good at defenders returning to defense, and Tang Ye's pass from behind was too difficult for Vitesse players to handle.

At the end of the first half, Utrecht entered the locker room with a 2-goal advantage.

In the second half, Ten Hag did not make any substitutions, because he only needed to use the players and tactics in the first half to outwit the opponent.

But it’s different for Vitesse. Now they are lagging behind and they need to make adjustments.

In the 61st minute of the game, what Chinese fans had been waiting for finally came.

The Vitesse coach made a substitution at the center position, with No. 43 Zhang Yuning coming on as a substitute!

"Well"

Tang Ye saw Zhang Yuning running up to the sidelines. It was time to defend the set-piece. Tang Ye and Zhang Yuning high-fived.
Snapped!
"Vitesse's set piece comes out!"

"..."

"Utrecht got an attacking opportunity through a counterattack from a set piece, and Nakamba directly pulled De Jong down!"

It was originally a set piece for Vitesse, but Utrecht counterattacked instead, and the result of the counterattack was that Utrecht got the set piece.

The pace of the Eredivisie is relatively fast, with only about 2 minutes between two free kicks in the frontcourt.

"Do you want it?"

Ramseral took the initiative to ask Tang Ye, who was standing behind the white line and observing.

The position is a bit off, so shooting directly at the goal definitely won't work.

But if it's a cross...

The ball is in just the right position!

"Let me do it!"

Tang Ye took the ball from Ramsselaar.

Snapped!
It was the same topspin technique used by Ward-Prowse, and the ball flew directly into the penalty area.

Tang Ye tried too much to pursue topspin, which resulted in the ball being in a slightly off position.

It was originally passed to Allais, but ended up in front of De Jong.

"You can just hit me!"

Tang Ye shouted loudly.

!!!

Snapped!
De Jong kicked out in the air.

The angle was ordinary, but the speed of the ball was fast enough that goalkeeper Rum couldn't even make a save.

"GOOOO-AAAAAAA-LLLLL!!!"

"De Jong volleys! Beautiful, the ball goes in!"

"Another assist from Tang Ye!"

De Jong ran towards Tang Ye excitedly.

This was his first goal in the Eredivisie.

The first goal was a volley!

"Beautiful! Frankie!"

The Utrecht players hugged each other to celebrate, which was in sharp contrast to the Vitesse players.

Forwards Zhang Yuning and Solanke put their hands on their waists, looking somewhat helpless.

They were beaten by PSV Eindhoven last month, and now they were beaten by Utrecht again today!

The game is in the 70th minute and Utrecht is now leading by 3 goals.

"I feel like Vitesse's tactics have been overwhelmed by Utrecht, because Vitesse has no idea how to keep an eye on Haller and Barazite."

"Hiss, it seems that Ten Hag is really awesome. Let's take a look..."

"Hey, De Jong made a mistake. He just kicked a great goal. What's wrong with you, De Jong?"

"Vitesse has a very good attacking opportunity, Solanke dribbles forward!"

"It was very fast, De Jong wanted to commit a tactical foul but failed!"

"Cooperate with Nakamba next to you!"

After a simple but quick two-pass combination, Solanke took the ball and ran directly towards Utrecht's left penalty area.

Tang Ye quickly returned to defense.

It would definitely not be possible for him to closely guard Solanke from this position, but Tang Ye also has his goals.

Zhang Yuning!
Tang Ye ran while observing Zhang Yuning's actions.

This guy's offensive intention was so obvious that even his opponent Tang Ye knew what he was trying to do.

"here!"

Zhang Yuning reached out for the ball, and Tang Ye's speed increased at the same time.

Snapped!
Solanke pressed the defense and then made an inverted triangle pass!
Zhang Yuning stopped the ball!
Oh?
I'm sorry, fellow countryman!

boom!
Tang Ye decisively went to the ground, throwing both the ball and himself away.

"Awesome! Haha! King of Football, Tang directly tackled Zhang Yuning who was about to shoot!"

"Who said I, Mengge, can't defend? Take a look at the slow motion. It's good. Tang Ye's tackle is pretty clean."

The ball that Tang Ye cleared returned to Solanke's feet. The latter was obviously a little anxious and shot the ball directly into the stands.

"Are you okay, Brother Ning?"

Tang Ye stretched out his right hand to Zhang Yuning, who grabbed it.

"Fuck, you're really cruel!"

Zhang Yuning felt a little uncomfortable. If Tang Ye hadn't tackled the ball just now, he would have had a chance to shoot directly!

But Zhang Yuning didn’t know that Tang Ye suddenly came over!

"Sorry sorry"

Tang Ye patted Zhang Yuning on the shoulder, and the latter shook his body and quickly began to adjust his state.

It's not easy to get a start. If he can seize the opportunity and score a goal, maybe his chance in Vitesse will be opened!
Five minutes after Tang Ye's flying tackle on Zhang Yuning, Utrecht's three forwards dribbled and passed the ball in the frontcourt.

The old problem reappeared, that is, several forwards could not find opportunities to shoot.

"Let me come, let me come!"

Tang Ye ran up excitedly, but was knocked down by Nakamba who was returning to defense.

The referee didn't blow the whistle.

Utrecht's attack is favorable!

grandma's!
Tang Ye got up from the ground and pretended to run to the right. When Nakamba's center of gravity shifted, he suddenly accelerated to the left.

"in!"

Tang Ye pointed to the restricted area in front of him.

Now Balazite has the ball. If Balazite can pass the ball in, Tang Ye will have a chance to face the goalkeeper directly!

It depends on whether Balazit can score the goal!

Snapped!
Through!

Barazit's through ball went between two Vitesse defenders.

Got it!

Tang Ye knew that he absolutely could not stop the ball at this time.

To be honest, he was not sure he could stop the ball at this moment.

The logic is very clear.

Shoot directly!

"GOOOOOO-AAAAAA-LLLLLL!!!"
