legendary midfielder

Chapter 251
not good!

Zhang Xu realized immediately that Belleron was injured!
He immediately ran towards Belleron, and while running, gestured towards the sidelines, telling the team doctor to come on the field quickly.

When he arrived at the scene, several people surrounded Belleron, including Essien, Pepe and Alonso from Real Madrid, as well as Oliveira, Ricky and Aguilar from Deportivo.

Belleron hugged his knees, beads of sweat the size of soybeans dripped down his face, the pain made Belleron's face a little distorted.In order to hold back the pain, Beleron gritted his teeth fiercely while breathing heavily.

"Captain, how are you?" When outsiders were around, Zhang Xu generally referred to Belleron as the captain.

"Zhang, um, Huchi probably is. Huchi's knee meniscus. Huchi tore." Belleron said intermittently.

Zhang Xu was stunned. The meniscus in his knee was torn. Even if he underwent surgery, it would take about two months to recover. It would take another two months to resume training. It would take another half a month to fully recover to the point where he could compete. Calculated in this way, it would take half a year anyway.

Half a year may not be very long for an ordinary player, but Belleron is already 38 years old, and after half a year, he will be almost 39 years old.

At the age of 39, who can guarantee that he can continue to run on the court?The injury this time is tantamount to directly ruining Belleron's subsequent career!

"Torn meniscus??" Zhang Xu murmured unconsciously.

"What's wrong with the captain? What's going on?" At this time, other teammates rushed over and asked anxiously.

"The captain said the meniscus of his knee... was torn!" Ricky sighed and explained to his teammates later.

"What? This is impossible?" The other teammates exclaimed in disbelief.

At this time, Zhang Xu stood up suddenly, glanced around, and then rushed towards Pepe who had already stood up, waiting for his blood-red eyes.

Seeing Zhang Xu's expression, the Real Madrid team members felt something was wrong, and quickly blocked his and Pepe's route. Zhang Xu, who was so angry, couldn't be stopped by them. With a flick of his hands and a bump of his body, Zhang Xu came in front of Pepe.

"It's you! Isn't it? Bastard, I knew you did it! Right?" Zhang Xu's little sense left in his head prevented him from beating up immediately, but stared at Pepe, and asked in a cold tone.

Peipei was taken aback by Zhang Xu's viciousness. He took a step back, then put on an indifferent attitude, shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said, "Me? So what if I did it? Huh?"

"Damn bastard!" Zhang Xu was waiting for these words, he swung his strong arms and planned to repair the other party.

"Pepe, shut up!" At this moment, Ronaldo rushed up, pulled Pepe behind him, and said to Zhang Xu: "Zhang, calm down! Even if you beat Pepe to the ground, it won't change the fact that Belleron was injured! You should send Belleron to the hospital for treatment!"

"Get out of the way!" Zhang Xu growled in a low voice, his eyes were completely covered with bright red bloodshot eyes, judging from his expression, if Ronaldo didn't let him go, I'm afraid he would beat Ronaldo too.

For Zhang Xu, Belleron is not just a teammate and a big brother, but also his master, because Belleron taught him the knowledge of passing and organization!

If it weren't for Belleron's careful training, even with systematic help, Zhang Xu would not have been able to quickly grow into the world's top midfielder in such a short period of time.

Similarly, Zhang Xu would not have been able to occupy the core position of Deportivo's midfielder, let alone be the soul of Deportivo, if it hadn't been for Belleron's voluntary concession!
"Zhang, calm down. If you do it now, you are sending yourself off! Then what will you do to win this game and win the King's Cup? I don't think Belleron wants to see this scene either!" Ronaldo continued to persuade.

Zhang Xu's expression couldn't help but move, but he still didn't intend to relax.

At this time, Ricky and Oliveira came to Zhang Xu's side, hugged Zhang Xu tightly, and said, "Zhang, Cristiano is right, if you are sent off, then our King's Cup championship will be completely over!"

"zhangzhang!" At this moment, Beleron's intermittent voice came over.

Zhang Xu immediately turned around and came to Beleron's side.

"My injury...has nothing to do with Pepe. When he hit me, he already retracted his legs. Moreover, he... touched the football first!... I was caused by my unstable standing when I was speeding up!" Belleron explained.

"Even if I want to win again, I won't be cruel to an old guy! Hmph!" Pepe snorted dismissively after hearing Belleron's words.

Zhang Xu looked at Pepe coldly and didn't speak, but anyone could feel the anger in his eyes.

"Shut up!" Ronaldo directly pulled Pepe away, preventing him from talking nonsense again.

At this time the team doctor finally arrived. After a simple examination, the team doctor's judgment was the same as Belleron's own, so Belleron was carried on a stretcher.

"Come on, Zhang! You can do it! I believe in you!" Beleron said with a smile on Zhang Xu when he was being sent down.

Zhang Xu nodded fiercely, his nose was a little blocked.

"Don't worry, Captain, we will definitely go to the hospital to see you with the championship trophy in hand!" Ricky swore while holding the stretcher.

"Haha. Uh, okay, I'll wait!" Belleron waved to his teammates, and then the staff carried the stretcher and quickly walked towards the ambulance parked by the court.

Because of Zhang Xu's previous reckless actions, the referee directly showed Zhang Xu a yellow card as a warning.

Zhang Xu doesn't care, his defense has always been clean and neat, and he never gives the referee a chance to draw a card, so he has two or three yellow cards in a season, and red cards are unheard of.

After Beleron was taken away by the ambulance, Zhang Xu seemed to have not recovered from his injury, and looked at the direction of the ambulance in a daze, unable to say a word for a long time.

Ricky sighed, he pulled Zhang Xu to his side, and then called all his teammates over, even Thomas, who replaced Belleron, was called over by him.

"Brothers, everyone knows why the captain got injured! Just now I promised him that I would bring the King's Cup trophy to the hospital to see him. Do you think we will break our promise to him?" Ricky shouted loudly.

"No! The champion is ours!"

"We must win the championship trophy and give it to the captain!"

The teammates shouted and vowed to win the game and take the championship trophy to Belleron.

Ricky nodded, then patted Zhang Xu beside him, and asked, "Zhang, what do you think? Huh?"

The other teammates also looked at Zhang Xu with hopes on their faces.

Only then did Zhang Xu come back to his senses a little bit. He nodded heavily and growled in a low voice: "Yes, we must win! Otherwise, how can we be worthy of the captain? Get rid of Real Madrid!"

"Haha, okay, let's work together to kill Real Madrid!" Seeing that Zhang Xu finally recovered, Ricky finally felt relieved and roared loudly.

"Get rid of Real Madrid!!" The teammates roared in unison!

After the game resumed, Zhang Xu's state is still a bit problematic.

Because of Belleron's injury, Zhang Xu had to continue to return to the team's original tactics, serving as the core of the team's offense and defense, and Thomas, who came off the bench, cooperated from the side.

Before Belleron was injured, Zhang Xu hadn't been able to find a way to deal with Real Madrid's tactics. Now that he is restless, he is even more at a loss.

When attacking, every passing and receiving of the ball was quite unsmooth, and he was often interrupted by Real Madrid's backcourt players; when defending, every time he defended, he seemed to lose his original strength. If it weren't for his teammates desperately protecting the goal, perhaps the score would have been rewritten long ago.

Seeing that Zhang Xu was out of form for the first time, the teammates were very anxious. They kept shouting loudly to remind Zhang Xu, hoping that Zhang Xu could recover as soon as possible.

The head coach Ortella was also anxious about Zhang Xu's state. He came to the side of the field, directed the team's offense and defense loudly, and shouted Zhang Xu's name from time to time.

Not only the players and the head coach felt impatient, but even the Deportivo fans at the Bernabéu stadium saw that something was wrong with Zhang Xu.As a result, the resounding "Song of the Chinese President" resounded through the Bernabéu Stadium at once.

Hearing the shouts of his teammates and the head coach, and the singing of the fans, Zhang Xu slowly recovered, and the dull color in his eyes finally became vivid again.

However, at this time, another disaster struck.

In the 403rd minute of the game, Real Madrid attacked.

After receiving Pepe's pass, Essien made a diagonal pass and sent the football to Alonso in front.

Alonso is not very far from Zhang Xu, so he didn't dribble the ball, but pushed the arch of his right foot and pushed the football to Ronaldo who came back to meet him.

After Ronaldo took the ball, he quickly turned around and quickly slanted into the left side of the penalty area.

Castro firmly pushed Ronaldo outside to prevent Ronaldo from suddenly cutting inside and entering the penalty area to form a threat to the goal.

Ronaldo didn't intend to cut inside, he ran straight to the bottom line, but threw Castro a distance away.

When the football was about to cross the bottom line, Ronaldo made a hook pass, picked up the football, flew across the middle of the goal, and fell towards the far corner of the goal.

Benzema plugged in at the right time, jumped to the top, and directly pushed the football into the goal!
