Chapter 174
The home draw ended in a draw, which made Zhang Xu very unwilling. Halfway through the league, it was also the time when the La Liga teams began to widen the points gap. If they fell behind at this critical moment, it would be difficult to catch up.

But now, with Deportivo taking advantage of the game at home, they unexpectedly encountered an unacceptable draw, turning the three points they got into one point!
As a result, Deportivo's league points increased by only one point, from 41 to 42, while Real Madrid defeated Getafe 4:0 at home and successfully won three points. The points changed from 40 to 43, and the league ranking also overtook Deportivo, once again standing in the third place in the league.

Fortunately, Malaga, which ranks 5th in the league, only has 35 points, 7 points less than Deportivo, and cannot threaten Deportivo's position for the time being.

After the game, Zhang Xu set off immediately, boarded the plane to Oman directly, and went to Oman to join the national team.

At about ten o'clock in the morning on January 2013, 1, Zhang Xu finally arrived at the hotel where the national team was staying. After reporting with Camacho and the national team leader Luo Jingwei, Zhang Xu went into his room and fell asleep.

In the past two days of continuous running and intense competition, even though Zhang Xu has abnormal physical fitness and the sky-defying skills of "running to death", he still feels a little tired.

What made him a little strange was that Comrade Luo Jingwei, the leader of the team, seemed to have a much better attitude towards him. After seeing Zhang Xu, he was very enthusiastic and asked about his health. When he heard Zhang Xu say that he was a little tired and wanted to rest, he immediately called the deputy team leader over and arranged a private room for Zhang Xu.

How is this going?Hasn't this guy always disliked himself?Did you take the wrong medicine?Not quite like it?It's crazy!
Zhang Xu thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand why, so he simply gave up and went to Zhou Gong to explain his dream.

As soon as he fell asleep, he slept for a full five hours, and Zhang Xu didn't wake up until three o'clock in the afternoon.

After getting dressed in good spirits, he heard someone talking outside the door. Out of curiosity, he opened the door directly, just in time to see the head coach Camacho and the team leader Luo Jingwei arguing about something.

"Zhang Xu, are you awake? I'm sorry to bother you! Or, let's go to the other side, and you can continue to rest!" Luo Jingwei smiled almost flatteringly at Zhang Xu, and said softly.

"Uh, it's okay, I've already rested, you go on, go on!" Zhang Xu was a little uncomfortable with Luo Jingwei's attitude, so he had to go back to the room to pack his luggage.

"Oh, Zhang, please stay here. We happened to talk about a question related to you just now. I want to ask your opinion." At this time, Camacho called Zhang Xu to stop.

"Okay, sir, tell me!" Zhang Xu stopped and listened patiently to Camacho's questions.

"It's like this. Team Leader Luo discussed with me just now and wanted you to be the captain of the national team, but I think you are still young, so you didn't agree. However, Team Leader Luo insisted on insisting on his own opinion, so I want to hear your opinion." Camacho briefly described the incident.

"Me? The captain of the national team? How is that possible?" Zhang Xu opened his mouth wide open. He really couldn't believe that Luo Jingwei would nominate him as the captain of the national team.

"Of course it is possible!" Luo Jingwei interrupted quickly: "Zhang Xu, look, you are the strongest in the national team, right? Besides, you are also the second captain of the team in Deportivo, right? In addition, your performance in the recent national team games is obvious to all. All the members of the national team admire it. Why can't you be the captain of the national team?"

"But, am I too young? I'm only 21 years old! Moreover, I think Zheng Zhi is very suitable to be the captain now! Why do you want to change?" Zhang Xu did not deny the facts Luo Jingwei narrated, but he still thinks that it is not the best time for him to be the captain of the national team. Zheng Zhi is still a very competent captain of the national team, so he put forward his opinion that he is too young.

"What are you afraid of when you are young? Young people are aggressive and aggressive! Our national team just needs blood and passion, and you are just right! I think it's settled! Mr. Camacho, what do you think?" Luo Jingwei waved his hand and made a conclusion directly.

"Oh, no, no, no, I disagree. Letting zhang be the captain now is not conducive to the unity of the national team and will have a negative impact on the state of the national team. I firmly disagree!" Camacho insisted on his point of view.

"Yes, team leader. I also agree with Camacho's point of view. The team leader should be Zheng Zhi! When I have the qualifications, I will do my part!" Zhang Xu also expressed his attitude.

"Well, since you insist on sticking to your point of view, then I'll be reluctant, but if you have any ideas, please tell me, I will definitely do my best to satisfy you!" Luo Jingwei slapped his chest loudly.

"Okay, thank you, Team Leader Luo!" Although Zhang Xu was puzzled by the other party's enthusiasm, he still expressed his thanks politely.

"Haha, no thanks, no thanks! This is what I should do!" Luo Jingwei seemed very happy, as if he had done a very remarkable thing, and after saying goodbye to Zhang Xu, he left without hesitation.

"Okay, Zhang, I know you're very tired, so you'd better have a good rest. You'll have running-in training tomorrow morning!" Looking at Luo Jingwei's figure, Camacho sighed, shook his head, and said to Zhang Xu.

"It's okay, I've rested already! Now I can go to run-in training with the team!" Zhang Xu felt that he had completely recovered his physical fitness, so he offered to join the team for training.

"Okay, then you come with me!" Camacho didn't say much, and walked directly to the training ground with Zhang Xu.

At 2013 a.m. on January 1, 30, the friendly match between Oman and the Chinese national team officially started with the whistle of the referee.

The Oman national football team is Oman's national football team, managed by the Oman Football Association, and is currently one of the members of FIFA and the Asian Football Association.

The Oman national football team has successfully qualified for the two Asian Cup football matches in 2004 and 2007. In 2004, they ranked third in the group with one win and one loss in the group match and missed the quarter-finals. In 2007, they ranked fourth in the group with two losses and one loss and failed to advance to the quarter-finals. However, they drew with the Australian national football team in the first game without being favored by the outside world. The performance is unforgettable.

Oman is currently ranked 93rd in the world, a little higher than the world ranking of the Chinese national team, so this game can be said to be a game between two national teams of equal strength.

But now, there is one more Zhang Xu in the Chinese national team, which has qualitatively improved the strength of the Chinese national team. If Oman still uses the ranking to look at the Chinese national team, it will definitely die a miserable death.

After the start of the game, Oman played very relaxed and relaxed. Their player skills are indeed much better than that of the Chinese national team as a whole. Every player has a pretty good ball-handling ability.

Therefore, on the court, Oman players often pass the Chinese football with ease.

Of course, this kind of situation will not happen to Zhang Xu, not only will it not happen to him, but it will not happen within a range of about ten meters around him.

Why?This is so easy!

Even the most powerful player in the Amman team is at least one level worse than Zhang Xu. As long as any Oman player wants to pass him by personal skills, Zhang Xu will unceremoniously break the football.

Slowly, the area defended by Zhang Xu became Oman's restricted area, and all Oman players had to walk around Zhang Xu.

However, even though the Oman team walked around Zhang Xu, it didn't work, because Zhang Xu's speed was so fast, he could rush to the most suitable position in the shortest time and implement the most effective defense!
That's right, what I'm talking about now is just defense, offense?Then you wait!

In the 201st minute of the game, Zhang Xu made a beautiful sliding tackle, directly blocked the Oman team's pass, and stabbed the football to Zhao Xuri. He quickly got up and ran forward at high speed.

Zhao Xuri was familiar with Zhang Xu's running habits, so when he saw Zhang Xu jumping up from the grass, he knew that Zhang Xu was going to make a quick attack, so he didn't hesitate, and directly pushed the football to Zheng Zhi who was responding.

Zheng Zhi didn't stop the ball because he was surrounded by two Oman players who focused on marking him.He pushed the arch of his right foot, and called the football back to Zhao Xuri.

When Zhao Xuri received the ball, he had already run forward for several meters. At this moment, he saw that Zhang Xu had passed Zheng Zhi and was about to reach an empty position.He quickly pushed the football over.

After Zhang Xu received the football, he directly kicked the ball and sent the football to Gao Lin who was going forward.

Gao Lin raised his foot and shot, and the football hit the lower right corner of the goal!

The ball went in! 1:0!

After this goal, the Oman team became more cautious. On the one hand, they continued to strengthen the team's offensive. On the other hand, they began to focus on Zhang Xu, who is the most active player in the Chinese national team.

However, can Zhang Xu be guarded by ordinary people?
Maybe there are players in the world who can guard Zhang Xu, but they are definitely not the current Oman players.

Zhang Xu used his speed and stamina to throw the opponent's player somewhere in two hits.

In the 303rd minute of the game, after Zhang Xu received a pass from Zheng Zhi, he took a long shot from outside the penalty area and once again broke the goal of the Oman team!

2: 0!

Game No. 408 minutes, that is, only 3 minutes into the second half of the game, Zhang Xu and Zheng Zhi played a series of exquisite cooperation in the frontcourt, and finally Zheng Zhi assisted Gao Lin to score the team's third goal!
After this goal, Camacho began to make substantial substitutions, even Zhang Xu was replaced by Camacho.

In the following game, the Chinese national team took advantage of the victory to pursue and scored another goal.

In the last friendly match with Oman, the Chinese national team overwhelmed the Oman team with a score of 4:0!

　A new month has begun, ask for a monthly pass!thank you all!
