Chapter 239 Zhang Xu's Adjustment

Although it was a pity for the team to lose, Zhang Xu found that after suffering two blows, the mentality of his teammates gradually returned to calm, and in the following training, the state also returned to a normal level.

This made Zhang Xu heave a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, only one draw and one loss saved the team's abnormal state. If it takes a few more losses to return to normal level, then Zhang Xu will cry to death.

Because, the next game will be the league game against Atletico Madrid at home, which is very important for Deportivo and Zhang Xu.

Now Deportivo and Atletico Madrid have the same 68 points. Whoever can win this game will become the real third in the league.Of course, if Real Madrid loses this game, it is possible to win the second place in the league.

As long as they pass this hurdle, Deportivo will have a smooth road ahead. As long as the team does not make low-level mistakes, qualifying for European competitions is within reach.In this way, it will be very easy for Zhang Xu to complete the main task.

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, this game is a crucial battle for Zhang Xu and Deportivo.

In order to win this game, in addition to rehearsing tactics in the past few days, Oltra concentrated on continuing to adjust the mentality and state of the players.

He had already seen it before that, the reason why the team had one draw and one loss was that after the team defeated Real Madrid and Barcelona in a row, the team had an inexplicable sense of pride, as if he was already the same as the former Super Depor.

After being tied by Athletic Bilbao, they fell directly from the high clouds, which caused a huge gap in the mentality of the players. Most of the players failed to adjust in time, which is why they lost to Real Betis in the second game.

However, thanks to the loss to Real Betis in the second game, the mentality of the players has been greatly adjusted, and the players' state has also been fully restored.

After Ortera made special adjustments these days, the entire team finally returned to normal. Not only did the morale remain good, but the competitive state basically returned to the highest level.

Now, Altera finally has the confidence to face the next game!
Although he regained his confidence and the team was full of confidence up and down, the outside sports media sang bad songs about Deportivo one after another.

Most of the sports media believe that now, with one draw and one loss, Deportivo is exhausted, and the dark horse has finally come to an end. The next league will break the myth of the dark horse and restore its original color.

What's more, this time the opponent is Atletico Madrid. After all, it is a European giant and one of the top three in La Liga. It is not comparable to a team like Deportivo. Therefore, in this game, even if Deportivo is playing at home, the result of the game must be Atletico Madrid.

The remarks from the sports media inevitably spread to the team. To Oltra's surprise, the team did not suffer a blow because of these remarks. Instead, it aroused the blood of the players and the team's morale was greatly improved.

Sometimes, Oltra has to thank these sports media, because they bad-mouthed the team's remarks, and he even saved the mobilization before the stand.

May 2013, 5 is the match day for the No.4 fourth round of La Liga.

Today, at the Riazor Stadium, countless Deportivo fans flocked to the huge stadium stands.

All fans are very aware of the significance of this game, and after reading so many sports media comments, every player's heart is full of worries about the current situation of the team.

In order to cheer for their beloved team, in order to give strength to the team, as long as they can come to the stadium, Deportivo fans, without exception, choose to go to the scene to cheer for the team.

When Zhang Xu and his teammates walked into the stadium and started the final warm-up before the game and training to adapt to the field, the entire Riazor Stadium was already filled with thunderous applause and loud singing.

"zhang! Zhang!!! Zhang!!!" This is the shout of the fans!
"We have a black-haired Chinese boy,
He is as strong as a monster,
He runs like a cheetah,
He is a super tank on the field,
Whoever tries to pass before him,

He will unceremoniously put him——

crash!Push down!Crushed!

He is our Chinese zhang!ah!Amazing Chinese zhang! "

This is the song dedicated to Zhang Xu by the fans!
Amidst the loud singing and shouting, Zhang Xu felt his whole body was burning slightly, and invisible power emerged spontaneously. At this moment, he wished that the game would be held immediately, so that he could repay the fans who loved him and loved him with the most powerful and perfect posture and results.

At 7:[-] in the evening, with the whistle of the referee, the game officially started!

After the start of the game, under Zhang Xu's deliberate scheduling, Deportivo played unhurriedly, appearing calm and unhurried.

Zhang Xu himself felt very good, but in the eyes of some so-called half-baked football commentators, he became the best example of Deportivo's failure. They uttered nonsense in the live broadcast rooms of various sports TV stations or online video channels, claiming that Deportivo would lose to Atletico Madrid.

Compared to Deportivo's unhurriedness, Atletico Madrid played very aggressively. At the beginning of the game, they frequently stepped in and launched a violent offensive against Deportivo.

In the 5th minute of the game, Suarez made a long pass and accurately found Lopez in the frontcourt. Lopez poked his toe and passed the football to the middle. Falcao rushed to him and shot angrily!

The football hit Ewaldo's right leg that stretched out in time, and the rebound flew out of the bottom line!
In the 8th minute of the game, this time it was Cork. After receiving a cross from Suarez, he immediately passed the football to Garcia in front.

After Garcia saw Zhang Xu approaching, he even wanted to use his own skills to shake Zhang Xu away, and used his best skill of flicking the tail of an ox in front of Zhang Xu!
When seeing Garcia's passing, Kirk felt bad, and he immediately reminded Garcia loudly.

However, his reminder was a bit late, Garcia had already fully started the action of flicking the cow's tail, even if he wanted to stop now, he couldn't stop.

Zhang Xu is a little speechless, this kid is really ignorant and fearless, Messi and Ronaldo dare not break through one-on-one in front of him, right?

He suddenly made an oblique thrust, and his right leg directly caught Garcia's breakthrough position. Then he leaned his body lightly and hooked his left foot, easily breaking the football from Garcia's feet.

In the 13th minute of the game, it was still Garcia. After receiving a wonderful pass from Suarez, he quickly went down the right side.

Falcao is worthy of being the third-ranked striker in La Liga. He squeezed away Ewaldo abruptly, and made a beautiful stop and half-turned shot!

It's just that when he shot, from the direction of him to the goal, he was blocked by Zhang Xu, so Falcao's shot was directly blocked by Zhang Xu with his right foot.

In the first 15 minutes or so, it seemed that Atletico Madrid was playing against Deportivo, but in fact, it was Zhang Xu who was adjusting the team's state.

Although the team's mentality and state have been greatly restored after the adjustment of the head coach, Zhang Xu still feels that it is necessary to sort it out again. After the first 15 minutes of sorting out, he knows that he has done the right thing!

Sure enough, there are still some unsmooth places in the team. After his serious adjustments, the team finally fully returned to normal.

Now, it's time for the team to show everyone his mighty power!

When the team was fully restored to its best condition, Zhang Xu immediately activated his sky-defying skill "God's Perspective"!
Once this skill is activated, Zhang Xu immediately has the vision to control the overall situation. Coupled with the strong support of his teammates after returning to normal, Zhang Xu has controlled the rhythm of the game in his own hands in a very short time.

In the 18th minute of the game, Zhang Xu cooperated with Marchena in the middle and directly shoveled the football from Cork's feet.

Marchena got the football tackled by Zhang Xu, and under Zhang Xu's signal, he immediately passed it to Belleron who came back to catch the ball.

Belleron turned around with the ball and quickly moved forward.

At this time, Zhang Xu had already got up, fully increased his speed, passed Belleron directly, and ran straight ahead.

When passing Belleron, his right hand made a covert gesture behind him to pass the header.

Beleron understood it and made a fake pass to the right, which immediately attracted Cork and Garcia, who were counterattacking, and then tiptoed, directly picked the football over Garcia in front of him, and fell towards Zhang Xu.

After Zhang Xu turned sideways to stop the ball, he tapped his right foot, and the football obediently rolled in front of him.

After seeing Zhang Xu taking the ball less than ten meters outside the penalty area, Atlético de Madrid immediately sounded the full alarm.

Suarez was the first to jump up. As an experienced and powerful star, he didn't jump up immediately. Instead, he stared at the football under Zhang Xu's feet, moved his steps very cautiously, and got stuck in Zhang Xu's forward route from time to time.

Zhang Xu didn't mean to waste time with Suarez. He pushed the football with his right foot and pushed the football to Oliveira in the front left, and then suddenly accelerated again, bypassing Suarez directly!
When Suarez saw Zhang Xu bypassing him, he immediately felt something was wrong. He made a quick decision and grabbed Zhang Xu's clothes with his right hand.

However, Zhang Xu's speed was really too fast, he was taken by Zhang Xu, his hand slipped, and Zhang Xu broke free.

At this time, Oliveira passed the ball and directly crossed it to Zhang Xu who was going forward!

Zhang Xu immediately raised his right leg and kicked hard at the rolling football!
Diego and Felipe were shocked, and immediately stepped forward, both of them stepped forward to block the route of Zhang Xu's shot.

What they didn't expect was that Zhang Xu's shooting action was just a fake action. He poked the football behind with his toe, and the football rolled past the two of them, and then a gust of wind blew past them, and Zhang Xu also ran past them!

It's single-handed!
Facing the attacking Courtois, Zhang Xu volleyed directly!
With a "bang", the football hit the net!
