Chapter 30 He Wears the Captain's Armband
Zhang Xu's unusual behavior immediately attracted the attention of all the fans present.

The parents and fans around Nicola discovered that two of the three people sitting next to them had the same skin color as Zhang Xu, and the middle-aged man had some similarities with Zhang Xu in appearance.

Moreover, judging from the direction of Zhang Xu's shouting, it was obviously aimed at these two people.

Are these two Zhang Xu's parents?Well, very likely!

Immediately, some fans asked Zhang Xu's parents to verify this fact.

"Hi, hello, are you Zhang Xu's parents?"

"Hello, is Zhang Xu your son?".
Faced with questions from chattering fans, the parents could only ask Nicola for help.

Nicola showed a reassuring smile to her parents, and then replied very gently: "Yes, this gentleman and lady are Zhang's parents!"

"Wow!" After hearing Nicola's affirmative answer, the surrounding fans immediately boiled and shouted: "Your son is really great! We all love him very much!"

"Congratulations! You have the best son in the world!"

"Welcome to the Stade Stadium of our Voluwe White Stars! Everyone here is a loyal fan of your son!"

"Please accept my respect and thanks to your son Zhang!"

Through Nicola's stuttering and even incomprehensible translation, Zhang Xu's parents still really felt the support, support, love and gratitude for their son from the fans of the Voluwe White Stars, which made the parents feel extremely proud and proud from the bottom of their hearts.

This is our son!

Excited fathers have an urge to announce to the world.

At this moment, the father, who had always been brooding over Zhang Xu's professional football, finally let go of the last grievance!
"This beautiful girl, you must be Zhang's girlfriend. You are really beautiful and match our Chinese Zhang very well!" Seeing the intimate attitude of Nicola and Zhang Xu's parents, the fans turned and became curious about Nicola's identity.

"It must be! Our excellent Chinese zhang should have such a beautiful girlfriend!"

"Does our Chinese Zhang have a girlfriend? It's over, what about my daughter? I plan to betroth my most precious daughter to Zhang!"

"Your daughter? Are you kidding me? Your daughter should be betrothed to an octopus, not to Zhang!"

"What are you talking about! Is my daughter bad?"

"Of course not bad, but I still want to ask you, does your daughter weigh more than three hundred pounds?"

"."

Hearing the fans' speculations, Nicola blushed, but she didn't know the difference, she just hugged her mother's arm tighter.

I have to say that Nicola is really smart. She couldn't tell the difference and her face was flushed. She showed a flawless image of a shy girl whose privacy was broken by human nature. In the end, she hugged Zhang Xu's mother's arm even tighter, revealing her identity fully.

Gross, the game commentator at the Stade Stadium, discovered the existence of Zhang Xu's parents when Zhang Xu shouted to his parents. After communicating with the staff, he confirmed the identities of Zhang Xu's parents and Nicola.

At this time, on the big screen in the stadium, the images of Zhang Xu's parents and Nicola were displayed.

"Dear fans and friends," Gross's commentary sounded over the stadium at the right time: "The great Chinese Zhang brought his parents to our stadium today. Let us White Star fans welcome and bless Zhang's parents with the warmest applause!"

The entire stadium burst into thunderous applause, and Zhang Xu and his teammates, who were undergoing adaptive training, also stopped and applauded enthusiastically.

Seeing that everyone was looking at them and applauding with smiles on their faces, the parents could understand that they were welcoming them, so they also bowed politely to express their gratitude.

"Of course, we will also use the special expression of our Baixing fans to welcome our beautiful little girlfriend from Zhang Xu!" Gross will not let go of the beautiful girl next to Zhang Xu's parents, Nicola.

As a result, there was a strange cry that everyone could understand from above the stadium!
"Okay, our players have finished their adaptive training and returned to the locker room. There, after receiving the final tactical arrangement from the head coach, Mr. Mazu, at three o'clock, they officially entered the field to start the game!"

"Now, let's take a look at the starting list of the two teams today. Out of courtesy, hey, let's take a look at the starting list of the visiting guest-SV Rosler:" Gross gave a strange smile and continued:
"Goalkeeper Demeter, defenders Nick, Blue, and Berg. Hey, they actually have a 3-5-2 offensive formation! Do you want to play against our White Star team at our Stade Stadium? Haha, it seems that there is a good show to watch today!"

"Now let's take a look at the starting lineup of our great White Star team: the goalkeeper is the unshakable Kevin, the back line is Thomas, Alexandre, Rossello, the midfielder is the captain Dries, and our lovely---China zhang!"

When Gross said this, he paused deliberately, and then roared loudly. All the fans present roared loudly with him, and then applauded loudly.

"There are also our Jill, Divan, and Vincent. The forwards are of course Henry and Jigery we are familiar with!"

"Okay, the game is about to start! The players are starting to enter the stadium. Ah, the first one to enter the stadium today is our Chinese zhang! Oh, my God, he is still wearing the captain's armband!"

Gross is right. Zhang Xu did wear the captain’s armband today. The reasons are, on the one hand, Zhang Xu’s parents watched the game today. He was also convinced.

Regardless of who is the captain on the field, the fans immediately gave Zhang Xu the warmest applause and shouts when they saw Zhang Xu appearing first.As a result, shouts of "zhang!" and "xu!" echoed throughout the stadium.

This name is the special treatment given to Zhang Xu by the White Star team. Because of the awkwardness of Chinese, the fans simply separated the two pronunciations of Zhang Xu, first called zhang, and then called xu, so that Zhang Xu's name can be called out completely.

Of course, there was an eerie feeling to it no matter what.No, my mother covered her mouth and laughed out loud at the fan's weird pronunciation.

Zhang Xu, who was the captain for the first time on the spot, was very steady. According to the requirements of the game, he led the team to complete a series of captain's tasks such as lining up, exchanging team flags, and guessing sides. He seemed calm and extremely skilled.

Zhang Xu is still in the position of the midfielder, but his position is slightly advanced, and Dries is a little further back.In other words, Dries handed over the core position of the team's midfielder, and Zhang Xu replaced him!
Of course, this is just a tactical test.

In the recent games and trainings, Mazu saw that Zhang Xu's performance is getting better and better, and his ability is getting more and more comprehensive, and his strength is getting stronger and stronger. Now he has vaguely possessed or even surpassed the level of a first-tier player, so he has already had the idea of ​​letting Zhang Xu play the core.

In addition, Zhang Xu's parents came here this time, and the opponent's strength was relatively weak. Ma Zu made a favor and asked Zhang Xu to try Dries' position to see if he was up to the arduous task of being the core of the midfield.

Of course, if the effect of this change is not good in this game, it is natural to return to the original tactical formation.

A "beep" whistle sounded, and the game officially started.

Henry points the ball to Jigry, and Jigry passes it back, but Divan doesn't catch the ball, but runs forward as soon as his body gives way.

Zhang Xu received the ball, he began to dribble the ball forward slowly, and observed his teammates' running positions from time to time.

The opponent's striker pushed forward. At this time, Zhang Xu would usually distribute the points to the teammates on both sides. However, today he didn't score. He just simply stopped the ball and accelerated, and directly swayed the opponent's striker.

This extraordinary action is not very fancy, but it is very practical, so it still won the applause of all the fans present.

The opponent's striker swayed past, but followed by the opponent's two midfielders. Naturally, Zhang Xu would not take the ball anymore. He passed the ball to Jill on the right.

Jill took the ball and started running along the sideline, with a momentum of not stopping until he reached the bottom line.The opponent's midfielder immediately pushed forward to stop Jill's crazy behavior.

Jill is not good at playing. He hooked the ball with his right foot, pushed the ball with his foot, and the ball returned to the middle again.

Zhang Xu just received it, but he didn't take the ball. Before the opponent could react, he gave it to Daiwen in front left.Then quickly start the speed, bypass the marked midfielder, and go straight into the space between the midfielder and the opponent's back line.

Daiwen understood and passed the ball directly with one kick, delivering the ball accurately.

Zhang Xu stopped with his left foot and pulled his right foot. After stabilizing the center of gravity of his body, he swung his thick right leg and slammed it to the bottom of the ball!

"boom!"

After a clear and loud noise, the ball struck out a black and white lightning bolt, instantly passed through a distance of 35 yards, and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

Before the goalkeeper of the SV Rosler team could react, the ball had already come in front of him. He was already unable to make effective movements, so he could only raise his hands subconsciously.

"when!"

With a dull bang, the ball hit the crossbar and flew out of the baseline. Zhang Xu's long-range shot was so powerful that the football flew far away, and the goal was still swaying.

The goalkeeper of the SV Rosler team secretly rejoiced that he didn't make a pounce, otherwise if he did pounce, his hand would probably be useless!

Although the goal was missed, all the players of the SV Rosler team changed their faces because of this disarming power. Even the eyes that looked at Zhang Xu showed a trace of fear.
