Although Ortra scoffed at the media's statement, one thing he could not deny was that as long as Zhang Xu was there, La Coruna's performance was indeed a world of difference compared to when Zhang Xu was not there.

This was also fully reflected in the subsequent leagues.

November 25, 2o12 is the 13th round of the league. On this day, La Coruña will challenge Athletic Bilbao away.

Athletic Bilbao is a football club in Serie A located in Bilbao, Biscay Province, Basque Autonomous Region in northern Spain. It was established in 1898 and is the second earliest football club in Spain.

The club is a founding member of the Spanish League One and has not been relegated since 1928. Only Real Madrid and Barcelona have the honors at the same time.

One feature of the club is very eye-catching, that is, the club only uses Basque players, and 2oo8 years ago, there were never any commercial advertisements on the jersey.

The team also has a nickname called "Basque Lions"!

Today, "Level Laco" will challenge the "Basque Lions" away. Who will win?

The "Basque Lions" is also a team that is good at home. Therefore, after the game started, amid the cheers of all Bilbao fans at the San Mames Stadium, he attacked La Coruna fiercely.

In the third minute of the game, No. 8 Ituraspe passed the ball to forward No. 2o Aduriz. After Aduriz was held back by Zhang Xu, he planned to force the shot, but Zhang Xu kicked the ball out in advance.

In the fifth minute of the game, Athletic Bilbao made a comeback. No. 18 Gilpegg passed the ball to No. 11 Gomez. Under the interference of Machener, Gomez shot coldly and was not very powerful, and was easily rushed by Alzubia.

In the eighth minute of the game, No. 19 Munya made a cross from the bottom. The quality of this cross was very high, fast and flat. The goal was the most uncomfortable place for the goalkeeper. Fortunately, Zhang Xu rushed to the edge of the penalty area in time and an unrivaled header, blocking the cross.

............

For a time, in the eyes of all fans, Athletic Bilbao had already taken the initiative in the stadium and was bombing La Coruna indiscriminately.

In fact, La Coruna's defense line has always been as stable as Mount Tai under Zhang Xu's organization. It has never been truly broken by Athletic Bilbao.

In the first twenty minutes of the first half, Zhang Xu fully exploded his defensive ability and organized the team's defense in an orderly manner.

After the team's defense was stable, the offensive power gradually recovered.

In the 17th minute of the game, Zhang Xu interrupted the pass from Athletic Bilbao No. 18 Gilpegg, and passed it with a long pass, accurately finding Ricky in front.

After Ricky got the ball, he played a beautiful two-by-one with Belleron, and suddenly he made a forward pass and broke through the central defender who was specifically guarding him.

Another central defender of Athletic Bilbao saw that the situation was not good and rushed over to make up for the defense, but Ricky had already shot.

Fortunately, the opponent's goalkeeper Irazoz reacted quickly, and a standard flew to the side and used his fingertips to snatch the shot out.

Although this offense failed to score a goal, the offense that symbolizes La Coruna has gradually become fierce. If Athletic Bilbao continues to neglect defense, La Coruna will be the first to break the situation on the field.

Fans can't see this situation, but the head coach of Athletic Bilbao is still very clear. He came to the side of the court and loudly reminded the team to pay attention to controlling the rhythm and stabilize the formation.

However, the team's performance has not improved at all amid the cheers of Athletic Bilbao fans.

So, the situation of the game was finally broken in the 26th minute!

This was originally an attack from Athletic Bilbao. When their forward No. 11 Gomez dribbled the ball, facing Zhang Xu's defense, he actually wanted to show off his superb footwork.

As a result, the footwork was indeed shown, but the football was lost and Zhang Xu stole it with a beautiful stick-out position, and stopped the football.

Zhang Xu used his thick back to push Gomez behind him, raised his head and observed the situation slightly. He keenly showed that Athletic Bilbao was pressing forward overall and his defense was relatively empty.

So he pushed the ball to Belleron in front with his right foot arch, and by the way he made a hidden offensive gesture at Belleron, and then ran forward quickly.

After seeing Zhang Xu's gesture, Belleron understood Zhang Xu's intention. He did not stop the ball, but directly pushed the arch and returned the football to Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu picked the ball at the bottom of the football with his toes and picked the ball past the Athletic Bilbao team player who came to press, and then accelerated his pace and controlled the football and passed it directly!

The football passed through the crowd and appeared directly on the edge of the penalty area of ​​Athletic Bilbao, and here it happened to be the defensive open space of Athletic Bilbao, and only Oliveira was wandering here.

When Oliveira saw the football rolling in front of him, he couldn't help but cheer in his heart for Zhang Xu's pass. He quickly controlled the football and rushed into the penalty area.

The two centre-backs on the opponent were shocked and immediately rushed towards Olivei. However, because the distance was a bit far, according to their degree, when they approached Oliveira, Oliveira could completely make an effective shot.

And in fact, this is true. After Oliveira saw the opponent's goalkeeper abandon the goal and went out, he took two steps and immediately shot with a hoop!

The football passed the goalkeeper of Athletic Bilbao and fell into the goal of Athletic Bilbao!

The goal was in! La Coruña led Athletic Bilbao at home in the away game 1:0!

This goal immediately made the entire San Mames Stadium quiet for nearly half a minute. After that, the fans of Athletic Bilbao reacted and cheered for their team while booing La Coruna.

Inspired by the fans, the morale of Athletic Bilbao was restored, and the team slowly recovered its relatively rational offensive method.

Under such circumstances, La Coruna did not have any good opportunities, so the situation of the game was once in a stalemate.

Soon, the first half of the game ended.

After the side change in the second half, Athletic Bilbao obviously received some guidance from the head coach. On the one hand, it strengthened the team's control over the midfield, and on the other hand, it increased the intensity of the offense and the sense of offense.

Facing this style of playing of Athletic Bilbao, Zhang Xu finally felt a little defensive pressure.

In order to prevent the team from losing the ball, Zhang Xu had to give up some offensive organization and devote most of his energy to the team's defense.

In La Coruña, everyone has formed a consensus: once Zhang Xu focuses on defense, the team's defense will immediately become extremely stable.

This time is no exception!

Targeting people! The threatening players of Athletic Bilbao cannot easily get the football. Even if they get the football, they will be stabbed by Zhang Xu in time if they are not careful!

Steal! As long as he is given a chance, he will use his precise steal to steal the football under the feet of Athletic Bilbao players directly!

Heading! The bounce of 85 points and the heading of 74 points can completely allow him to easily control the high altitude of the team's midfield and backcourt!

Prediction! The prediction of 76 points allows him to accurately judge the opponent's passing route, and then use his unparalleled degree to intercept the football first!

As time passed little by little, Athletic Bilbao's offense completely lost its due sharpness in front of Zhang Xu!

Soon, the time of this game was exhausted!

In the end, La Coruña defeated Athletic Bilbao who played at home with a score of 1:0 in the away game! All three points were scored!

Now, La Coruna's league points have reached 24 points! It is still ranked fourth in the standings!

The team won two consecutive victories, and the whole team was excited, and Zhang Xu was no exception. This made him feel a little depressed and cheerful because of his departure from the national team.

At the same time, there is another thing that makes him very happy.
