Although it was a pity that the team lost, 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. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This made Zhang Xu breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, just a draw and a defeat saved the team's abnormal form, and if it took a few more defeats to return to a normal level, then Zhang Xu would have to cry to death.
Because, the next game is the home league against Atletico Madrid, which is very important for Deportivo La Coruna and Zhang Xu.
Deportivo La Coruna and Atletico Madrid are now tied on 68 points, and whoever wins this game will be the real third in the league. Of course, if Real Madrid loses this game, they could take second place in the league.
Once they get past that, Deportivo will have a smooth road ahead of them, and as long as the team doesn't 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 quest.
Therefore, no matter which aspect it is, this game is a key battle for Zhang Xu and Deportivo La Coruna.
In order to win this game, in addition to practicing tactics in the past few days, Ortra has focused on continuing to adjust the mentality and state of the players.
He had already seen before this that the reason for the team's one draw and one defeat was that after the team's successive victories against Real Madrid and Barcelona, the team had an inexplicable sense of pride, as if he was already a super Laco.
After being forced to draw by Athletic Bilbao, he suddenly fell directly from the high clouds, which caused a huge gap in the mentality of the players, and most of the players failed to adjust in time, so there was a second game defeat to Real Betis.
However, it was also a loss to Real Betis in the second game, which made the players' mentality greatly adjusted, and the players' state was fully recovered.
After a few days of special adjustments by Ortra. The whole team is finally back to normal, not only is the morale maintaining good, but the competitive condition is basically back to the highest level.
Now, Ortra is finally confident to face the next matches!
Although he regained his confidence. The team is also full of confidence, but the outside sports media have sung a song of decline to Deportivo La Coruna.
Most of the sports media believe that now, Deportivo La Coruna, with one draw and one loss, is exhausted, and the dark horse has finally run to the 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 one of the European giants and one of the top three in La Liga, not comparable to a team like Deportivo La Coruna, so in this game, even if Deportivo La Coruna is playing at home, the result of the game must be Atletico Madrid's victory.
Inevitably, the sports media rhetoric made its way to the team, and to Ortra's surprise, the team didn't take a hit from the comments. On the contrary, it aroused the blood of the players, and the morale of the team was greatly boosted.
Sometimes, Ortra has to thank these sports media for their negative remarks about the team, and they don't even need to mobilize before the station.
May 4, 2013 was the match day of the 34th round of La Liga.
Today, at the Stadio Riazor, countless Deportivo fans flocked to fill the huge stadium stands.
All the fans are well aware of the significance of this game and have read so many sports media comments. Every player's heart is full of worries about the current state of the team.
In order to cheer for their beloved team, in order to give strength to the team, as long as the Deportivo fans can come to the stadium, they all choose to come to the scene to cheer for the team without exception.
When Zhang Xu and his teammates walked into the court. When the final warm-up before the game and the training for the field were started, the entire Riazor Stadium was already reverberating with thunderous applause and loud singing.
“zhang! Zhang!! Zhang!!! "It's the shouts of the fans!
"We have a dark-haired Chinese kid,
He was as strong as a monster,
He runs like a cheetah,
He's a super tank on the field.
Whoever wants to pass in front of him.
He will unceremoniously --- him
Crash Fly! Push over! Crushed!
He is our Chinese zhang! Yes! Amazing Chinese Zhang! ”
This is the singing voice that the fans dedicate to Zhang Xu!
In this loud singing and shouting, Zhang Xu felt that his whole body was slightly hot, and an invisible force arose, at this moment, he couldn't wait for the game to be held immediately, so that he could repay these fans who loved him with the strongest and most perfect attitude and results.
At half past seven in the evening, with the referee's whistle, the game officially began!
After the start of the game, under Zhang Xu's deliberate scheduling, Deportivo played unhurriedly, appearing calm, unhurried and impatient.
Zhang Xu himself feels very good, but in the eyes of some half-baked so-called football commentators, it has become the best example of Deportivo La Coruna's failure, and they have made wild statements in the live broadcast rooms of various sports TV stations or online video channels, claiming that Deportivo La Coruna will lose to Atletico Madrid.
Compared with Deportivo La Coruna's unhurriedness, Atletico Madrid played very actively, and at the beginning of the game, they frequently launched a fierce attack against Deportivo La Coruna.
In the fifth minute of the game, Suarez made a long pass and accurately found Lopez in the frontcourt, Lopes poked his toes and passed the football to the middle, Falcao rushed to the horse and shot angrily!
The ball hit Evaldo's outstretched right leg in time and bounced off the baseline!
In the eighth minute of the game, this time it was Koke, who received Suarez's cross and immediately passed the ball to Garcia in front.
After Garcia saw Zhang Xu approaching, he even wanted to use his skills to shake off Zhang Xu, and used his best tail flicking in front of Zhang Xu!
When he saw Garcia passing, Cork felt bad, and he immediately reminded Garcia loudly.
However, his reminder was a little late, and Garcia had already fully unfolded the tail flick movement, even if he wanted to stop now.
Zhang Xu was a little speechless, this kid is really ignorant and fearless. Messi and Ronaldo don't dare to break through one-on-one in front of themselves, right?
He suddenly slanted into the thrust, and his right leg directly stuck the position where Garcia broke through, and then leaned lightly and hooked his left foot. The ball was easily broken from Garcia's feet.
In the thirteenth minute of the game, it was Garcia who, after receiving a clever pass from Suarez, quickly descended down the right flank, after encountering a resolute defence by Aitami. He had to get up and cross.
Falcao deserves to be the third-ranked striker in La Liga, squeezed Eivaldo away with a beautiful **** stop and half-turn shot!
It's just that when he shot, from the direction he went to the goal, he had already been blocked by Zhang Xu, so Falcao's shot was directly blocked by Zhang Xu with his right foot.
In the first fifteen minutes or so, it looked as if Atletico Madrid was pressing Deportivo La Coruna, but in fact, it was Zhang Xu who was adjusting the team's state.
Although the team has undergone the adjustment of the head coach, the mentality and form of the players have been greatly restored. But Zhang Xu still felt the need to comb again, and after the first fifteen minutes or so, he knew that he had done the right thing!
There are still some problems in the team, and after his serious conditioning, the team is finally back to normal.
Now, it's time for the team to show everyone what he's capable of!
When the team completely recovered to its best condition, Zhang Xu immediately turned on his anti-sky skill "God Perspective"!
Once this skill is activated, Zhang Xu suddenly has a vision to control the overall situation, coupled with the strong support of his teammates after returning to normal, Zhang Xu is in a very short period of time. I took the pace of the game into my own hands.
In the eighteenth minute of the game, Zhang Xu cooperated with Marchena in the middle and directly made a flying tackle from the feet of Koke. Shoveled the football out.
Marchena got the football shoveled out by Zhang Xu, and under Zhang Xu's signal, he immediately passed it to Belleron, who came back to receive the ball.
Belleron took the ball and spun around and quickly pushed forward.
At this time, Zhang Xu had already climbed up and completely raised his speed. Straight past Belleron and straight ahead.
As he crossed Belleron, he made a covert gesture with his right hand behind him to pass the ball over the top.
Belleron understood and made a feint to pass to the right side, immediately attracting Koke and Garcia who were counter-robbing, and then picked the ball directly past Garcia in front of him with a toe pick, and fell towards Zhang Xu.
After Zhang Xu stopped the ball sideways, his right foot knocked on the trend, and the football rolled obediently in front of him.
After seeing Zhang Xu take the ball less than ten meters outside the penalty area, the Atletico Madrid team immediately sounded a comprehensive alarm.
Suarez was the first to pounce, as an experienced and strong star, he did not pounce immediately, but stared at the football at Zhang Xu's feet, moving his pace very carefully, and from time to time stuck on Zhang Xu's forward route.
Zhang Xu didn't mean to waste time with Suarez, he directly pushed with his right foot, and pushed the football to Oliveira in front of the left, and then suddenly accelerated again, directly bypassing Suarez!
When Suarez saw Zhang Xu bypassing him, he immediately felt a little bad, he immediately made a decision, grabbed it with his right hand, and grabbed Zhang Xu's clothes.
However, Zhang Xu's speed was too fast, he was taken by Zhang Xu, and as soon as his hand slipped, he was actually broken free by Zhang Xu.
At this time, Oliveira passed the ball and passed directly to Zhang Xu, who was inserted forward!
Zhang Xu immediately raised his right leg and kicked the ball that rolled over!
Diego and Felipe were shocked and immediately stepped forward, both of them stepped forward to block the path of Zhang Xu's shot.
What they didn't expect was that Zhang Xu's shooting action was just a feint, he stabbed the football behind with his toes, and the football rolled past the two of them, and then a gust of wind blew, and Zhang Xu also ran past them!
Single-handed!
Zhang Xu faced the attacking Kurtois and fired a direct volley!
"Bang", the football went into the net! (To be continued.) )
