"Cockscomb head? Haha, I laughed so hard! Zhang, you are so funny! Looks like I will have to call him Cockscomb head in the future too! Haha!" Kondogbia froze for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Well, Pogba, I'm sorry, I accidentally leaked your nickname!Zhang Xu couldn't help feeling ashamed when he heard Kondogbia's burst of laughter.

"Okay, Black Winter Melon, the competition is about to start, don't you want to compete? Get ready to start!" Zhang Xu looked at Kondogbia's head shape that resembled Winter Melon, and casually gave Kondogbia a nickname.

"Black wax gourd? What is that?" Kondogbia asked suspiciously.

"Eh, winter melon is a delicious food in our hometown. After eating it, it can strengthen your body and strengthen your yang! I think you are tall and strong, and I thought it was caused by eating the winter melon from our hometown! So I made a metaphor for it. If you don't like it, forget it!" Zhang Xu rolled his eyes and began to flicker.

"I'm happy! Of course I'm happy! Hehe, I'm a strong black winter melon! Oh, and the most manly black winter melon! Haha!" Kondogbia readily accepted the nickname given by Zhang Xu.

Well, you are really a fool!Zhang Xu patted the bald head of "Black Winter Melon", ran to his seat with a smile, and waited for the whistle to start the second half.

The game starts soon.

Once entering the game, Kondogbia stopped laughing and playing with Zhang Xu, and immediately entered the game state, fully unleashing his powerful offensive ability.

In the 408th minute of the game, after receiving a pass from his teammate outside the penalty area, Kondogbia shot suddenly, and the football flew across the crossbar and flew out of the baseline, which shocked Deportivo goalkeeper Aranzubia into a cold sweat.

Seeing this shot, Zhang Xu was upset.I didn't take you seriously, but you're good, and you gave me a blow!Then, let me compete with you!

Therefore, in the following games, Zhang Xu immediately stared at Kondogbia firmly. As soon as Kondogbia got the ball, Zhang Xu would paste it at the fastest speed, and then wait for the opportunity to break the football.

In the 3 minutes of the game, Kondogbia dribbled the ball across the center line, and a wonderful man scored the ball, leaving No. 8 Santos behind.

However, he stopped there.Because Zhang Xu rushed ahead of Kondogbia and controlled the football under his feet.

Kondogbia couldn't stop his pace and bumped into Zhang Xu's body all at once. Zhang Xu just swayed slightly, then stood firmly, pushed Kondogbia away, and ran forward with the ball unreasonably.

Kondogbia's body is actually not thin at all. With a height of 1 meters and a body weighing 88 kg, he should be considered very strong, but Zhang Xu squeezed hard, and he stood powerlessly aside.

"Wow, this guy has so much strength, he's even stronger than me!" Kondogbia muttered to himself as he looked at Zhang Xu's disappearing figure.

At the 607th minute of game No. [-], this entangled and deadlocked game finally broke the deadlock.

The one who broke the deadlock was naturally our Zhang Xu.

This time he used his terrifying header!

Teammates took a free kick, Zhang Xu overwhelmed everyone in the penalty area, swung his head with an extremely powerful lion, and slammed the football into the net!

This is the most exciting goal of the whole game, but also the only goal!
In the end, the Deportivo team defeated the star-studded Sevilla with Zhang Xu's header!
After the game, Kondogbia exchanged jerseys with Zhang Xu, then patted Zhang Xu on the shoulder and said, "Zhang, Pogba is right, you are really good! I've decided, I'll call you 'Yellow Winter Melon' from now on!"

"." Zhang Xu swayed and almost fell on the grass.

After this game, the team's run-in has been basically completed. What is certain is that Zhang Xu and Belleron's dual-core tactics have become the team's first-choice tactic!
Of course, the team still has a friendly match to play before they can really enter the league stage.

And this friendly match is a bit difficult for Deportivo.

The opponent is Atletico Madrid!La Liga ranks second only to the strong teams of Barcelona and Real Madrid!

If Sevilla is star-studded, then Atlético Madrid must be star-studded.

Suarez, Turan, Costa, and Falcao are all heavyweight superstars. No matter who they are, they are national treasures in any team.

Fortunately, in this friendly match, Deportivo is playing at home. This is indeed good news for "Super Deportivo", who has always been good at home games, and has a little more confidence in the game.

At 2012:8 pm on August 12, [-], the competition officially started.

As expected before the game, Atletico Madrid rushed to Deportivo with unrelenting momentum at the beginning of the game.

But Zhang Xu was not made of mud. His strong physical fitness and sturdy defensive ability once again taught the Atlético Madrid players time and time again.

In the second minute of the game, Falcao received a pass from his teammate and was about to turn around when he felt a mountain top behind him, making him unable to move at all.

After hesitating for a while whether to pass the ball, he felt that the football under his feet was broken by the Deportivo players behind him.

Falcao looked back depressingly, and found that the one who stole the ball was a yellow-skinned and black-haired Eastern player with a big number on his jersey - "15".

In the 5th minute of the game, Turan, the core midfielder of Atletico Madrid, broke through with the ball. After being unable to get rid of the experienced Belleron, he passed the ball and planned to send it to Suarez who was responding.

Unexpectedly, a blue and white figure pierced from the side like lightning, and a precise shovel left the ball to stop his pass!
This figure is still number 15!
In the 7th minute of the game, Suarez also hit the wall with Turan to cooperate, passed Belleron, saw No. 15 Zhang Xu rushing over fiercely, and quickly passed the ball to Costa in front.

Costa may have been in contact with Zhang Xu for the first time, so he didn't take this yellow-skinned and black-haired kid seriously. After getting the ball, he took the ball slowly to look for opportunities.

"Be careful!" Falcao's reminder came from the right, and before he could react, he felt that his feet were empty, and the ball was poked off from the side.

This -- isn't this the oriental boy who rushed to Suarez just now?Why did you suddenly run to your side?Costa stared blankly at Zhang Xu who took the ball away, but couldn't figure it out.

After stealing the ball, Zhang Xu immediately cooperated with Belleron and hit Atletico Madrid with a quick counterattack. Although he failed in the end, he still dealt a severe blow to Atletico Madrid's arrogance.

After this lesson, the Atlético Madrid players became cautious, and they did not look down on the Deportivo players so much.

Especially for that Dongfang boy, he is extremely jealous. As long as he is attacking with the ball, he basically considers whether he can bypass him to launch an offensive.

However, Zhang Xu's defense area is really too big, basically covering all the area from the back 15 meters to the front ten meters of the court!

In the eyes of Atletico Madrid, Zhang Xu is more like a free man!A free man flying all over the field!

It was such a free man who actually led all the teammates of the Deportivo team to suppress Atletico Madrid's offensive frenzy!

During this period of time, Zhang Xu's offensive attributes have been greatly improved after Belleron's training, coupled with rounds of friendly matches and dense intra-team competitions.

Take passing as an example, he has now reached 64 points, which is a full 5 points more than after the game against Lugou!
Such a huge improvement made Zhang Xu more tacit and comfortable in cooperating with Belleron. At the same time, the overall strength of the team has also been greatly improved.

This improvement is not only reflected in the strong defense, but more in the offensive power!
In the 18th minute of the game, Zhang Xu intercepted Suarez's pass again, then pushed the ball with his right foot, and sent the ball directly to Belleron who was wandering near the center line.

After Belleron received the ball, he turned around and began to push forward quickly. After being pressed by the opponent's player, he poked the ball with his toe and hit Zhang Xu who had already run to the receiving position.

Zhang Xu didn't stop the ball either, he pushed the ball directly with his arch, and then sent the ball to forward Ricky.

At this time, Ricky was in the penalty area, holding the ball with his back to the goal, and the opponent's central defender was behind him, making him unable to turn around.

Ricky wasn't in a hurry either, he moved toward the right side of the field with the football.

At this time, Zhang Xu had already reached the edge of the penalty area, and there was no one around to defend him, so Ricky immediately kicked his heel.

The football rolled to Zhang Xu's body!

Zhang Xu stared at the rolling football, raised his strong right leg, and slammed it hard!

"Bang!" After a loud noise, the football rushed towards the upper left corner of the goal like a fired shell.

The goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid didn't expect Zhang Xu to shoot from such a long distance. In a panic, he immediately moved to the left side of the goal, jumped up quickly, and threw his arms at the flying football.

It's a pity that Zhang Xu's shot was powerful and heavy. Before he blocked all angles, the football had already plunged into the goal behind him, hitting a white wave!

The ball is in!
Zhang Xu broke the deadlock with another earth-shattering long shot and helped the team lead Atletico Madrid 1:0!
After Zhang Xu broke the deadlock in the field, he did not let the game fall into silence, but instead aroused the fighting spirit of Atletico Madrid. The two sides launched a fierce battle in the midfield.
