Chapter 236 Allah Didn't Bless Them
After finally dealing with a group of teammates, Zhang Xu fled in embarrassment and returned to the training center building. However, he did not return to the dormitory, but came to the equipment training room and began to play with the equipment.

Zhang Xu hadn't enjoyed the match just now, so he could only exercise with the equipment alone.

Although with his abnormal physical fitness, there is absolutely no need to carry out equipment training to improve his strength and other aspects of quality, but it is still necessary to maintain the necessary physical vitality.

After tossing himself into a sweat, Zhang Xu finally returned to the dormitory contentedly. After washing up vigorously, he got dressed and walked out of the dormitory.

At this time, it was already dinner time, so Zhang Xu walked directly to the restaurant.

"Huh, Brother Zheng?" Zhang Xu just walked into the restaurant when he saw Zheng Zhi sitting in the restaurant, chatting happily with his teammates, so he yelled.

"Zhang Xu? Haha, are you jet-lagged?" Zheng Zhi asked with a smile after hugging Zhang Xu.

"Uh, it's almost there! But, I'm still a little sleepy now." Zhang Xu told the truth, which made the teammates beside him burst into laughter.

At 06:30 in the evening, half an hour after dinner, the national team held a plenary meeting.Just like the previous routine, team leader Luo delivered a mobilization speech on behalf of a certain organization.

Speeches are nothing more than clichés such as what to unify thinking, what to attach great importance to, what to take seriously, what to win glory for the country, and so on.

Zhang Xu is really not very cold about this. In his opinion, it is better to emphasize the quality of professional players.Fortunately, Team Leader Luo's speech was not very long, otherwise Zhang Xu would have fallen asleep straight away.

The following is Camacho's appearance. He directly announced the arrangements and plans for the next three days, and appointed the captain and vice-captain of the team.

Zheng Zhi, who is the oldest in the national team and has excellent skills and professionalism, was naturally elected as the captain.

Surprisingly, Zhang Xu was appointed as the vice-captain by Camacho!
When Camacho announced this order, Zhang Xu was a little confused. He didn't expect that he, a newcomer, would be elected vice-captain so easily!
"Uh uh, Mr. Camacho, well, it's a bit inappropriate for me to be the vice-captain?" Zhang Xu stood up and declined.

"Why isn't it suitable? I think it looks good!" Before Camacho could speak, Luo Jingwei, the team leader, was the first to jump out and said loudly: "Zhang Xu, you are strong, and you are the core of the team's offense and defense. It is only natural that you be elected as the vice-captain. I discussed it with Mr. Camacho, and I think your election as the vice-captain is worthy of the name! So, don't refuse! We are all very optimistic about you!"

"Zhang Xu, you can do it! We all believe in you!" At this moment, Zhao Xuri stood up and expressed his support to Zhang Xu.

"I also support you as the vice-captain!" Wang Dalei also stood up and responded.

"Me too!" "Support!" Almost everyone stood up spontaneously and expressed their support for Camacho's appointment.

"Well, since everyone trusts me, I won't refuse anymore, thank you! I will do my best!" Zhang Xu saw that he couldn't refuse, so he could only accept it.

In the next two days, the national team will mainly carry out the running-in training of the team.

In training, Zhang Xu naturally became the core of the team.

After two days of running-in, the national team members gradually formed a preliminary sense of tacit understanding.Of course, besides coach Camacho's training, another very important factor lies in Zhang Xu.

It is precisely because of Zhang Xu's central scheduling that every player in the national team can find the target of the pass in time, and every time Zhang Xu passes the ball, he can find the corresponding teammate very accurately.

In this case, the national team gradually formed a complete whole!

March 2013, 3 is the match day of the second match of the Asian Cup qualifiers. Today, the national team will host the visiting Iraqi national team at the Helong Sports Center in Xiangzhong City.

The Iraqi national team is not considered a strong team in West Asia. Compared with Saudi Arabia, Iran and other countries, their national team is weaker. Even Oman is much stronger than them.

In addition, in the last game, under the leadership of Zhang Xu, the national team completely defeated the Saudi national team, a strong team in West Asia. Therefore, facing the Iraqi national team today, everyone is full of confidence in winning this game.

Today's He Long Sports Center is destined to be a sleepless night.

After the game started, Zhang Xu immediately activated the "God's Perspective" skill!
This perverted skill, even Real Madrid, even a strong team like Barcelona, ​​​​is hard to resist, let alone the Iraqi national team!
In the 3rd minute of the game, Zhang Xu used a fierce and accurate tackle near the center line to snatch the football from Iraqi No. [-] player Younis, and pushed it to Zhao Xuri next to him.

After Zhao Xuri took the ball, under Zhang Xu's signal, he quickly took a few steps, and then pushed it to Zhang Linfan who was advancing forward on the right.

After Zhang Linfan received the ball, he did not go forward, but returned the football to Zhang Xu under Zhang Xu's command.

When Zhao Xuri passed the ball, Zhang Xu got up and went forward. After receiving Zhang Linfan's pass, he quickly moved forward.

For Zhang Xu, Iraq has worked hard from top to bottom. It has long been clear about Zhang Xu's strength. Therefore, in the tactics formulated before the game, Zhang Xu was directly targeted as a key target.

The back of Iraq on the opposite side pushed up and blocked Zhang Xu's advancing route.

Zhang Xu directly passed the ball by himself, threw the opponent behind him, and then continued to advance quickly.

Soon, he came to the outer edge of the penalty area, and the two Iraqi guards joined forces to force Zhang Xu under unavoidable circumstances.

However, Zhang Xu had no intention of shooting. The two guys in front of him were firmly in the way of his shooting, even if he wanted to.

If you can't shoot, it doesn't mean you can't pass the ball.

As soon as Zhang Xu pushed the arch of his foot, the football passed through the middle of the two and came to the right edge of the penalty area.

Gao Lin patted his horse and rushed to meet the football with a volley!
Gao Lin's shot was powerful, and the football hit the net!The Iraqi goalkeeper didn't move at all!
The ball went in! 1:0!

Just 3 minutes into the game, Zhang Xu assisted Gao Lin to score a goal with the help of the "God's Perspective" skill!
This goal also completely ignited the enthusiasm of all the fans in the He Long Stadium. Countless fans cheered and shouted happily, as if they wanted to completely release the long-standing depression.

Many fans directly yelled the slogan "Long live the Chinese team!", and some fans also learned the way of celebrating in the European arena and played crowds.

Of course, in China, the way of celebration naturally has many Chinese characteristics, such as gongs and drums, and fireworks with Chinese characteristics, and so on.

Not only the fans were excited, but also the international players on the field.

A goal was scored in the opening 3 minutes, which seems to have set a new record for the national team!More importantly, this goal completely inspired the self-confidence of the international players!
In the following games, every player appeared to be extremely confident and dared to challenge the Iraqi players' defense or offense head-on.

Under such circumstances, and Zhang Xu has completely controlled the rhythm of the game, the game quickly became one-sided.

In the 201st minute of game No., Zhang Xu made two consecutive passes to his teammates, but after being wasted by his teammates, he also took two long shots himself, but his luck today was not very good.

Two long-range shots, one hit the goal post, and one flew over the crossbar and flew out of the baseline.

Just when he was feeling extremely tangled, the national team won a corner kick!
corner kick?hey-hey!Zhang Xu is happy, he really can do whatever he wants!Then let you see what is called Kongba!
Zheng Zhi took a corner kick. The quality of the corner kick was not very good, and the trajectory of the football flight was a bit out of the way.

However, this is nothing to Zhang Xu.

Because, he rushed in from outside the penalty area to fight for the header!
rush in?Yes, seeing that the football was about to fly to the middle, Zhang Xu, who had been wandering around the perimeter, suddenly started, directly raising his speed to the highest value, as fast as lightning, and galloped towards the middle of the restricted area.

When he was about three meters away from the football, Zhang Xu took off without hesitation!

When he took off, it was like a huge fighter plane soaring into the air, directly overwhelming all the players who were vying for the header.

So, in the shocked eyes of everyone, he shook his head fiercely and smashed his forehead directly on the football.

After a soft "bang", the football changed its direction quickly like a cannonball and flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal!

The goalkeeper of the Iraqi national team immediately flew to the left and stretched out his arms to stop Zhang Xu's header.

However, he didn't expect Zhang Xu's header to fly so fast. Before his arms were straightened, he had already plunged into the net!

The ball went in! 2:0!

After Zhang Xu scored a goal, under extreme excitement, he stood on the spot and stretched out his arms, screaming to the sky. At this time, he has a domineering arrogance that dominates the world!It deeply shocked every player on the court, and also every fan in the He Long Sports Center!
With two goals in hand, the national team, which is good at playing downwind, will naturally not let go of the opportunity to hit the dog in the water.

Match No.308 minutes, Match No.607 minutes, Match No.808 minutes, Gao Lin, Zheng Zhi and Zhang Xu scored three consecutive goals respectively.

In the end, the Chinese national team beat the Iraqi team with a huge score of [-] to [-] in this game!

After the game, Zhang Xu laughed and said to the reporter who interviewed him: "Unfortunately, Allah did not bless Iraq today! So they lost, and they lost badly!!"
