Chapter 50 Did You Come Together!?

Chapter 50 Did You Come Together!?

In the last 2 minutes, Berlin jointly launched an attack, and Malaga also took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.But the two sides did not rewrite the score until the whistle sounded, and the Berlin United team walked into the locker room helplessly.

The Malaga players were applauded and cheered by the fans.

When Zhang Xu walked into the locker room, he was patted on the shoulder by the fans in the stands above.Then he saw an uncle say to him: "Well done, young man."

Zhang Xu smiled at him, then pretended not to see the temptation of a sexy beauty behind the uncle deliberately puffing out her chest, and slipped into the player channel with a blushing face.

The two sides fought again in the second half, and Berlin United, which was two goals behind, did not calm down after halftime.They actively want to equalize the score or overtake the score.It can be seen that they know that if they want to win or score a point, they must break Malaga's defense.

The central midfielder Pingqi, who had just replaced Duqin, cooperated with Krizman's initiative to advance forward, creating opportunities for Muriel and Luis.

Five minutes later, the Berlin United team found a chance, and Krizmann and Qiqi broke Zhang Xu's ball.Krizmann and Chih then beat Willian with a wall kick.Before Watt grabbed the lead, Krizman sent a through pass.

The ball rolls between Watt and Gonzalez.Watt raised his foot subconsciously, but still missed the ball.Gonzalez quickly ran back to where the ball landed.

However, it was clear that someone was faster than him.Faraoni received Kreizmann's through pass tacitly.This is not the first time they have worked together like this.

After Faoni caught up with the ball, he took advantage of the trend and then accelerated to catch up with the ball.The African boy Gonzalez who was chasing after him had no chance.Although Gonzalez could run faster than Faraoni, Faraoni had already led by about seven or eight yards, and the black boy could only turn around and sigh.

Without Gonzalez's entanglement, Faraoni would be more comfortable with the ball.He even raised his head from the side to observe the situation in the middle.

Muriel was the first to resist.He quickly got rid of Li Qiang's entanglement.In fact, although Li Qiang's position is the defensive midfielder, his defensive ability is quite average.Cruyff, who is also a defensive midfielder, is much better defensively than Li Qiang. Even the midfielder Watt is much better than Li Qiang in marking and stealing.Li Qiang, a typical backcourt center, is better at backcourt organization, connecting the team's backcourt and midfield.

If Li Qiang plays forward, then he can connect the backcourt, midfield and frontcourt into a line.The fact is that Li Qiang started as a front midfielder, but when he was in Kiev, he faced competition for the position of top attacking midfielders Rui Amanda, Rivaldo, Seedorf and others at the time.Finally, under the arrangement of Coach John, Li Qiang became familiar with playing as a midfielder.Later, he became the world's number one midfielder partner with Gattuso, and he embarked on the path of a generation of technical institution midfielder masters.

Malaga has many opponents in Serie A, and their players will inevitably be abused by opponent fans in away games.But there are only two exceptions, one is Li Xiu and the other is Li Qiang.This stems from the dedication of the British people to the national team of these two veterans.At his peak, Li Qiang was called the "king" by British fans.

Therefore, although Li Qiang's defensive ability of the defensive midfielder is also improving, when it comes to the real defensive midfielder, it is still much worse.After all, his experience is not small.Li Qiang is not good at physical confrontation, and his current body does not allow fierce fighting.Therefore, a lot of defense in the midfield comes from the support of Watt or Cruyff. They are like two "dung sticks", and it is difficult for the opponent to attack comfortably when defending.When the two of them attack forward, opponents have a headache for their offensive ability, especially the heavy artillery outside the penalty area.

So for Muriel, he got rid of Li Qiang's defense and ran forward without much effort.Of course, his actions caught the attention of central defender Bailey, who took the initiative to step forward to defend Muriel tightly, preventing the opponent from receiving the ball easily.

What Bailey thought of was the excellent and experienced central defender in the UK. Compared with Li Qiang's defense, there is more difference between an apprentice and a master.So Muriel tried several times to push Bailey away, and then raised his hand to catch the ball, but all failed.Instead, Bailey, who was looking at him so firmly, made him feel like he couldn't move.

Luis didn't give way to the two sides in the middle of the road because Gonzalez and Watt were already coming after him.I didn't think much of it either.I dribble the ball down quickly and then send a quick lob cross.

The ball flew directly into Malaga's penalty area.Muriel was already in his place, and he put Bailey behind him.Then, watching the ball flying in the air, he jumped decisively, trying to get the header.Bailey jumped up and harassed each other.

Just when the ball was about to fall to Muriel's head and form a header, everyone's hearts suddenly became tense.

Li Xiu had seen that Bailey's header failed to gain the upper hand, so he paid attention to Muriel's movements and leaned against the goal post to block the opponent's shooting angle.

“Luiz crossed at the end of the game and accurately found the striker Muriel who took a better position in the box. Muriel.!!”

However, just as Muriel's head was about to hit the ball, he had an idea and turned around to avoid it.

All of a sudden, everyone was caught off guard.Bailey didn't think about it, Li Xiu didn't think about it, and neither did Manuel.

"Muriel ducked, he missed the football!! Look at the ball, is there an offense this time?"

Without Muriel's resistance, the ball starts to drop.Luiz burst into the box without giving Manuel, who was defending him, time to think.Then face the falling ball and volley.

boom!A sound, this is the sound of Louie's foot hitting the ball.The ball flew straight towards the goal, and Li Xiu had no time to react.Even the camera caught Li Xiu's dumbfounded expression when the ball came from the other direction.

The hearts of Union Berlin and Malaga fans were torn apart.Obviously, they both know what happens if they score.With 40 minutes left in the game, Berlin United, which is only one goal behind, is bound to launch a more aggressive offensive.And Malaga went from an absolute two-goal lead to being beaten by the team with the lowest wages and budget in the UK, which was a fatal blow to morale.

"Louis!!!!"

boom!This is the sound of the ball hitting the crossbar.

"Oh..." More than 4 fans with nearly 3 people screamed together.

With a start, Li Xiu swooped sideways, grabbed the ball that hit the lower part of the crossbar and bounced into the penalty area, and pressed it firmly on his body.

"Hey, Luiz's shot hit the crossbar, and the ball was easily caught by Li Xiu. Union Berlin wasted the best goal of the game so far. If the ball is from Shevchenko, it should go in."

Now, the Berlin United fans who follow the team to the away game miss Shevchenko, the veteran who was left behind in his hometown Union Berlin due to lack of energy and unable to play.

However, it is clear that the British have never heard of the famous saying "wasted opportunities will be rewarded" by Chinese fans.

When Li Xiu got up to take the ball, he observed the situation in the frontcourt.When he saw that there were no defenders around Zhang Xu who was close to the center line, he froze for a moment.Then he saw central defender William from Zhang Xu to Berlin's United penalty area.

The rest of Union Berlin were still slowly retreating from the front.It seems that they have not recovered from the failure of the attack just now.

Li Xiu immediately thought that this was an excellent opportunity to fight back.

Li Xiu quickly slipped the ball in his hand, then raised his right foot to face the falling ball, which was a powerful swing.

Willian was the first to react when the ball flew mid-air into midfield.Because he saw the ball fly past the "crowd" below, and flew directly to the empty area on the side of the center line, and then he saw Zhang Xu in front of him.

He knew instantly that this was a typical quick counterattack.So he raised his hand and yelled to get the attention of his teammates.Domiz and Krizmann also saw the ball fly over their heads and then saw Willian gesturing ahead.I also understand.Speed ​​up and catch up now.At this time, Kriezmann had no time to blame Domiz and the two full-backs for going too deep, giving the enemy a chance to attack.

Zhang Xu saw the flying ball and understood what Li Xiu meant.In fact, he has long noticed that there is only one central defender in the opponent's backcourt.

William hesitated between forward interference, blocking Zhang Xu from receiving the ball, and even stealing the ball, retreating back and forth from the penalty area to cooperate with the goalkeeper.After watching the ball fall, Zhang Xu started to run after the falling ball, and he chose the former.

Zhang Xu raised his head to chase the falling ball, but did not forget to observe the movement of the only defender in front of him.Seeing his opponent stepping forward to compete with him for the high-altitude ball, he had an idea.

"Li Xiu's quick exit caught Union Berlin by surprise. Their defender's forward assists were too active and deep, and now there is only one central defender William in the backcourt. The ball went directly to the teenager Zhang Xu, who had never flinched before. Although Krizmann and Domiz quickly retreated to chase Zhang Xu, they basically had no hope for Zhang Xu's distance and speed."

“This is the perfect opportunity for Malaga to fight back!!”

Looking at the height, Zhang Xu kicked hard with his right foot and rose into the air.Then bang your head hard against the ball in the air.When the forehead hits the ball, the ball accelerates forward instead of continuing to fall.

William, who flew up, passed the ball in the air, and then Zhang Xu quickly bypassed William, and after landing, he chased after him.

In terms of explosive power and speed, William can be blown away by Zhang Xu.So Zhang Xu easily bypassed William and caught the ball behind him, without giving the opponent a chance to approach or foul.

After successfully throwing off William, Zhang Xu caught up with the ball, then accelerated again and went straight to the opponent's backcourt penalty area.Now there is only one big goal and a lone goalkeeper.

"Facing the goalkeeper!!! Zhang Xu is facing the goalkeeper!!!"

"William, the last central defender of Union Berlin, did not cause any interference or hindrance to the hot young player Zhang Xu. Now Zhang Xu is aiming at the goal. Mara made a beautiful counterattack, and Zhang Xu's face was on the goalkeeper!!"

The Union Berlin commentator chanted: "Burkic has a chance to prove himself, to express himself!!"

Goalkeeper for Burkić United.Even the fans of Union Berlin didn't believe the commentator's words.If Burkić can be as brave as Li Xiu or Milan's Norwich, then the current score will not be 2-0.

Zhang Xu's acceleration with the ball made William helpless, and his efforts to catch up with Zhang Xu's speed advantage were like a routine performance.

Domiz and Krizmann are farther away and can do nothing.The young Krizmann even wished in his heart that it would be great if a stone tripped him in the grass
Zhang Xu was not flustered or nervous at all.He calmly and quickly rushed to the opponent's penalty area.He didn't turn around to get rid of William.Because he knew that with his own speed advantage, it was impossible for William to catch up with him, and there was no need to take a corner and change direction.Straight Assault is the best option.He has this confidence.

Burkić chose to attack, he vigorously stretched his legs.Sprint towards Zhang Xu, and his goal is very clear, that is the white football under Zhang Xu's feet.

Zhang Xu saw Burkić's movement, about three yards in front of the penalty area, and felt the goalkeeper's speed and position.Then his actions made Burkić feel cold again, and an ominous premonition hit his heart directly.

Zhang Xu slowed down the speed of rolling the ball with his left foot, and then swung his right foot vigorously.Startled, Bouskey flew forward in a hurry, trying to kick the ball away before Zhang Xu.At this time, even Zhang Xu slipped and kicked, and he didn't have time to think about this dangerous possibility.

The hearts of Union Berlin fans were raised again.First, they were afraid of Zhang Xu's attack.After all, they are no longer Zhang Xu and Ying Lun Wuming's outstanding youngsters, but talented players with strength.The second is that Zhang Xu was afraid that his teammate Pardo would be hurt, so he directly sent goalkeeper Burkić to chat with the nurse beauty.After all, Pardoin has a case of court violence, and their own substitute goalkeeper is obviously unreliable.

The head coach of Union Berlin twitched, cursing Burkić secretly.Anyway, they have already led 2-0.Even if they score this goal, it will not go from three points to six points.Basically, if you lose, you have to ensure your health.After all, losing to the now powerful Malaga is neither shameful nor acceptable.In this case, you have to maintain your strength to steal points from other teams.

He glanced at the substitute goalkeeper sitting on the bench and secretly prayed to God to bless Burkić.It's nothing to you, but without you as the main goalkeeper, what can the team do to score points for other teams?
It seems that he is also very clear that his backup goalkeeper is really unreliable.

Zhang Xu used his actual actions to prove that an excellent player does not bother to make unnecessary small moves.Before Burkić dives with his right foot, he hits the ball, tiptoeing slightly and raising his arch.The ball went over Burkić's hands and over his head.He can even see grass stains and dirt on the ball.

Then Zhang Xu jumped away from Burkić.This not only prevents the opponent from knocking him down, but also prevents him from accidentally kicking the opponent.

The ball is like a parabola.After rising to a certain height, slowly descend.Finally, it leaves a trail in the air and plunges headlong into the net.

"Strong!!! Facing Burkić's offense, Zhang Xu volleyed the goal. It was a beautiful curve ball. It seems that Zhang Xu not only has terrible speed and shooting skills, but also has excellent pitching skills."

"God, what a horrible boy. Why isn't he British?" said the commentator on British national television regretfully.

And his commentator partner immediately agreed: "I heard that Zhang Xu has not been called up by their national team. Maybe after playing in Malaga for five years and getting British nationality, he can play for the British team. This is allowed by the Dynamo Football Association."

The narrator wondered: "Isn't China not recognizing dual nationality?"

The partner laughed: "What's the matter? We are a strong contender for the World Cup. What about the Chinese team. Hahaha. Also, playing for an excellent national team is a good choice for a player's skill and ambition."

Fortunately, Zhang Xu did not hear this "Crosstalk", otherwise he would have to imitate Cruyff or Watt who smashed the door and smashed the other party's camera
CCTV commentators are more emotional.

The Su Ming brothers shouted excitedly: "Zhang Xu, an experienced Serie A goalkeeper, looked quite calm in the face of Burkić. He has no nerve knife. He shot the goal calmly, avoiding the goalkeeper's interference and saving. He picked out an arc perfectly, seized this difficult opportunity to face the goalkeeper, and added a firm lock to Malaga's victory. Zhang Xu!! He is the future of our Chinese football!!"

After scoring the goal, Zhang Xu and Li Qiang hugged tightly again, thanking each other for their constant concern.

Then the team-mates came forward to celebrate together, knowing they would win by three goals ahead of Union Berlin.

"Zhang Xu scored twice to expand Malaga's score again. Now it is 3-0, and Berlin United basically lost. They made a tactical mistake at the beginning. Facing the rising Malaga, they should think about how to get one point instead of arrogantly taking three points. In the end, without Shevchenko and Pasquale, they still fought back against Malaga. Isn't that uncomfortable?"

"Zhang Xu's second goal in this game also allowed him to chase Shevchenko further in the scorer list. Now he is only one goal behind Shevchenko, and he will overtake with two goals."

Shevchenko obviously understood that the victory and defeat were basically divided at this time, so he used all three substitutions in one go.

Kriezmann replaced Johannes, who opened the scoring for the team; Zhang Xu's best friend, the young Cruyff replaced Li Qiang; Andre replaced midfielder Watt.

All three are matchup substitutions, but Andre, a professional guard, replaced Watt, who is balanced in offense and defense.

"Shevchenko changed three people in one breath, which is very unusual. Judging from the position, this pair of substitutions seems to be saving strength. Oh, by the way, Malaga will usher in the first leg of this season's British Cup semi-finals in three days. It seems that Shevchenko is trying to maintain his strength for the home game against Lazio."

Actually, the commentator is right.Shevchenko is just keeping his energy up and it's really for the England Cup and Lazio.Originally, Shevchenko focused on the league and the Champions League, but the British Cup is not in his heart, nor in his plan.
