legendary midfielder

Chapter 25 Shy Nicola
Zhang Xu, who met Yang Zi by accident, has been in a state of inexplicable happiness and anticipation since he parted ways with Yang Zi.

He often took out his mobile phone from time to time and stared blankly at the screen of the mobile phone. Sometimes he found Yang Zi's number, but he didn't dare to dial it casually. He even thought twice about sending a message before clicking send.

But this is not his fault, Yang Zi is indeed a rare sweet girl, and she is also a child star who has been famous since she was a child.Especially after "Happy Family" was broadcast, she became even more famous.

Even though she is now studying in the Film Academy, she still keeps filming appointments. It can be said that she is in a period of rapid career advancement.

At this time, Zhang Xu is just an ordinary player who has just gained a foothold in the Belgian Second Division, and his salary level is only at the middle level in China.At this time, the difference in status between the two is really a bit big.

Fortunately, Zhang Xu has the aura of a top student at the Sixth University of Paris, and Yang Zi doesn't dislike Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu is sometimes very humorous, so naturally he has a little liking for him.

In this way, Zhang Xu, who was in Belgium, and Yang Zi, who had returned to China, started a WeChat contact across half of the world. As the contact gradually deepened, the two gradually established a preliminary relationship.

This relationship is hard-won and very precious to Zhang Xu, so he has been taking good care of it. He hopes that one day, after the two meet again, they can truly walk together.

Just in Zhang Xu's anticipation, the battle of the Belgian Second Division kicked off again.

During this period, there was one thing that made Zhang Xu a little happy.That was after the last round of the game against Antwerp, Zhang Xu was selected for the first time in the weekly Belgian second division best team.

Moreover, this selection happened to replace Pogba's position.This annoyed Pogba for a while. After the news came out, he immediately called Zhang Xu to vent his anger.

Zhang Xu was not polite, and said a word directly: "Jiguantou, if you have the ability, don't complain to me here, if you have the ability, grab it back!"

Pogba suddenly misfired, and after he snorted a few times, he hung up the phone.

Because he was selected into the best team of the week, Zhang Xu's reputation gradually spread in the Belgian second division. Now almost all Belgian second division teams know that the White Star team has made a good deal. It doesn't cost a penny to have an excellent player in the midfielder position comparable to Pogba.

With a good reputation, there will naturally be more people and media chasing after her.

This can be seen from the fact that there are a lot of strangers holding cameras and laptops outside the training ground from time to time.

Except for some of these strangers who are local reporters in Belgium, it goes without saying that many of them must be full-time scouts.

Having scouts does not mean that there will be clubs making offers to Zhang Xu immediately, this is just a routine close observation and evaluation.If Zhang Xu really meets the needs of the club, someone will naturally follow up or make an offer.

"Zhang, you are so good, you have attracted so many scouts and reporters!" During the training break, Henry looked enviously at the scouts and reporters outside the training ground and sighed.

"Yeah, it looks like Zhang is going to be a star soon!"

"Zhang, don't forget our teammates if you become a star player, at least treat us to a good meal!"

All of a sudden, the teammates joked about Zhang Xu. Of course, there was also some envy, jealousy and hatred among them.

Zhang Xu stood up carelessly: "Brothers, don't tease me. They don't know what I am. Don't you know? You see, after two days, those scouts and reporters will naturally disperse after seeing my rough technical and tactical level."

The facts did not meet Zhang Xu's expectations. After seeing Zhang Xu's dribbling at 28 points, stopping and passing at 33 points, and running without the ball at 32 points, all the scouts and reporters who had been around the training ground ran away.

This gave the teammates another joke to tease Zhang Xu, and also made Zhang Xu secretly swear in his heart that he would make these blind scouts regret it for the rest of his life.

Today is the match day of the second division. At [-]:[-] p.m., the White Star team will play against the Tubes team at home.

The record of the Tubies team this season is not good. Originally, they were brothers and sisters with the White Star team. If you rank 16, I will rank 15. If you rank 17, I will rank 16.However, since Zhang Xu played for the first team, the situation has changed. The White Star team began to climb upwards, gradually leaving the Tubes team behind.

Before this game, the White Star team ranked 13th, and the Tubs team ranked 16th, with a difference of three places and a difference of 4 points in points.

The head coach Ma Zu naturally kept his hands on the former troubled brothers. Now for the White Stars, if they can grab a point, they can grab a point. Why should they be polite if they can grab three points?

Besides, Mazu already had the confidence and hope to win this game, so he unceremoniously dispatched all the main players in the platoon, and Zhang Xu naturally made his debut as a defensive midfielder.

After the start of the game, the Tubies team was still very active. Even though it was an away game, they still played their inherent offensive routines. They came and went with the White Star team. The game looked very exciting.

However, the White Star team has the advantage of playing at home. In addition, there is Zhang Xu's line of defense in the midfielder position. The White Star team has no worries about the situation, and the offense is smoother and sharper.

In the 24th minute of the game, Zhang Xu used his physical advantage to successfully break the football from the opponent's feet in the fight with the opponent's forward, and then sent a straight pass to Henry in front of him.

After Henry received the ball, he immediately made a wonderful extraordinary performance, throwing off the defense of the opponent's two defenders, and then stabbed Dries.Dries didn't stop the ball and then put it back to Henry. Henry leaned on the opponent's central defender and shot with one foot, and the ball fell into the net!
1: 0!

After leading by one goal, the White Star team became more and more courageous.

In the 41st minute of the game, Zhang Xu cut off the opponent's pass near the center line and gave it to Dries.After Driss took a few steps forward, he distributed it to Jill who was responding.

Gilla made a long diagonal pass from the side, and Gray headed the ball to the goal, and the football flew into the net against the goal post! 2:0!

Fighting on different sides in the second half, Tubes stepped up his offense and almost broke through the White Star team's gate at one point, but under Zhang Xu's fierce defense, Tubes' offensive momentum was contained.

In the 73rd minute of the game, the White Star team scored another goal with a strong shot by captain Dries to seal the victory. In the end, Tubes finally scored a face-saving goal with a corner kick.

In the end, the White Star team defeated the visiting Tubiz team 3:1!The standings climbed to 12th place!
Not only Ma Zu was happy about winning the game, but also his teammates were not only happy, Zhang Xu was probably the most excited.

why?It's very simple. Zhang Xu has upgraded again. Before the competition, he was about to upgrade. During the competition, he gained some experience points through side missions, and he successfully met the conditions for promotion.

After being promoted to level 14, Zhang Xu gained another 5 attribute points. In addition to the attribute points rewarded by the Drip system these days, he has increased by nearly [-] attribute points since the National Day competition!

After the game, Zhang Xu and his teammates washed up briefly, put on dry clothes, walked out of the court talking and laughing with his teammates, and prepared to go home to rest.

"Hi! Zhang! Here!" At this moment, he unexpectedly heard a familiar voice, turned his head and saw that it was his roommate Das.

Zhang Xu was naturally very happy to see Das in Belgium. He walked over quickly, waved his hand and asked, "Hey, Das, why are you in Belgium?"

When he got closer, Zhang Xu realized that Das was not alone, but five people, two men and three women, who were here to play.

One of them was obviously a couple, holding hands with a very intimate expression.Another girl was leaning on Darth's body, who seemed to be the new girlfriend Darth hooked up with.

The last girl was very beautiful, with long golden hair, long eyelashes, fair face, pointed chin, and perfect curves, which really made Zhang Xu's eyes shine.

However, Zhang Xu always felt that this girl looked familiar, but after thinking about it, he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

"Another one?" Zhang Xu thumped Das's chest, hooked his right hand on Das's shoulder naturally, leaned into Das's ear and whispered with a smile: "You are amazing! Changing girlfriends every three days! But who are they?"

"Who changes girlfriends every three days!" Das cursed viciously, and then formally introduced to Zhang Xu: "This is Luo Kai, a sophomore student in the Department of Economics. The one next to Luo Kai is naturally his girlfriend Lifen. As for this one," Das hugged his girlfriend tightly: "It's my girlfriend Susan, how is it? She's pretty!"

Finally, he pointed to the girl standing aside and said, "She, I don't think there is any need to introduce her, I think you should know her!"

"I know him?" Zhang Xu was confused.

At this time, Lifen interjected: "Have you forgotten? Last time you went back to school, you almost bumped into that girl when you were jogging in the stadium in the morning, remember?"

"Oh, oh, so it's you!" Zhang Xu finally remembered, no wonder he seemed to have seen it before: "I'm really sorry last time, I ran too fast and couldn't stop the car. My name is Zhang Xu, you can call me zhang, or you can call me Chinese zhang. May I ask your name?"

"She is Nicola, Nicola Peltz!" Lifen helped introduce.

"Yes, I'm Nicola. Nice to meet you, Mr. Super Scholar from Paris Sixth University." Nicola smiled at Zhang Xu, and extended her right hand generously.

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" A beautiful woman stretched out her right hand to you, Zhang Xu naturally wouldn't flinch, he held it naturally and shook it twice before letting go.

Nicola's hands were soft, as if they had no bones in them.

What Zhang Xu didn't notice was that when he was holding Nicola's right hand, there seemed to be an unnatural blush on Nicola's cheeks.
