Chapter 315 The Revenge Plan

After defeating Napoli 3-0, Arsenal won 6 points in the group stage with a record of winning both games, leading the teams in the group.

Now for Arsenal, the most important thing is the next group stage, home game against Dortmund. If it can be won successfully, the situation of qualifying in the group will be bright.

If you cannot defeat your opponent, the situation in the group will become subtle.

Zhang Xu is not very familiar with Dortmund, but he is not worried at all. He believes that as long as the teammates’ mentality is not a problem, the team will definitely defeat the opponent!

Dortmund is just a stepping stone for him to the European Champions League final. If you can't even get over this, then why are you talking about competing with Messi and Ronaldo?

Just as Zhang Xu was full of confidence to welcome the next game, a call-up order was sent to Arsenal Club. This was the national team's call-up order, requiring Zhang Xu to report to the national team before October 10 to prepare for the Asian Cup qualifiers against Indonesia on October 15.

When seeing this call order, Wenger frowned. From his perspective, a competition of the Asian Cup level is no longer suitable for Zhang Xu. If you go back and forth, you will not have any benefits for Zhang Xu except to increase Zhang Xu's physical energy consumption and positional impact.

However, Wenger knew that Zhang Xu was a very independent player, so he handed over the recruitment order to Zhang Xu and asked Zhang Xu to make his own decision.

"Sir, it seems that it's not OK to go back! It's not for the national team, but because of Indonesia!" Zhang Xu looked at the call order and raised his head and said to Wenger.

"Indonesia? Why?" Wenger asked in confusion.

"Hehe, keep it confidential!" Zhang Xu frowned and said.

In fact, Wenger could not have thought that Zhang Xu went back this time just to teach Indonesia a lesson!

Why? Just because Zhang Xu can't forget the cruel incident that happened in Indonesia for many years!

On May 14, 1998, Indonesian President Suharto instructed the Indonesian army and some mobs to carry out extremely inhumane massacres of Chinese Chinese in Indonesia!

From May 13 to 15, 1998, severe riots occurred in Jakarta, Indonesia and other places, killing more than 1,200 people in the riots, most of them Chinese, and more than 5,000 Chinese shops and residences were burned down. What is even more outrageous is that Indonesian thugs still raped hundreds of Chinese women in broad daylight.

About 170 Chinese women were raped and murdered during the riots, including more than 20 Chinese women who were seriously injured and died, including a 9-year-old and an 11-year-old girl. It is also estimated that the total number of Chinese women raped is as high as 300.

As early as 1965, Indonesia began to see **.

During the "September 3 O" incident in Indonesia on September 30, 1965, while the Indonesian military group destroyed the Indonesian military, it also carried out large-scale arrests and slaughtered innocent Indonesian Chinese, and at least 300,000 Chinese died in this bloody anti-Chinese operation.

After the Suharto government came to power, it ordered the word "China" to replace "China", divide Indonesian residents into indigenous people and non-indigenous people, classify Chinese as non-indigenous people, and put special marks on their ID cards, so that the discrimination against Chinese will be made public and legalized.

Since 1966, the Suharto government has promulgated dozens of laws and regulations to deprive Chinese of the political and cultural rights that Chinese people should enjoy as Indonesian citizens and forcing Chinese to give up their own language, culture, religious beliefs and living customs.

After Indonesia's independence, discrimination and persecution against Chinese people were everywhere, everywhere, and it lasted for a long time and never stopped.

In 1968, the Singapore government sentenced Indonesian crew members, causing an anti-Chinese riot in Surabaja;

In 1970, a Chinese from Sulawesi was disrespectful to the prophet Mohammed, which led to local anti-Chinese actions;

In August 1973, an anti-Chinese riot also occurred in Bandoeng, Java;

In 1974, Japanese Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka visited Indonesia, which also caused a surge in national consciousness among Indonesians, and evolved from anti-Japanese demonstrations to anti-Chinese riots.

In 1980, a Chinese man in Solo, Java had an quarrel with an Indonesian middle school student because of a bicycle colliding. The local Chinese shop was immediately attacked. Rumors were scattered at that time, aggravated the anti-Chinese sentiment and caused the riot to spread all the way to Samarang, causing a nationwide commotion and dozens of casualties.

At the end of 1982, Makassar, the capital of Sulawesi, the current Ukrainian general, was rumored that a girl was killed by a Chinese and more than 20 Chinese-American stores were burned;

In 1983, an anti-Chinese riot occurred on Soembawa Island, and dozens of Chinese merchants were robbed;

In 1984, an anti-China riot occurred in Jakarta, killing and injuring dozens of people;

In 1986, news of a Chinese abusing maids in Sishui came out, causing several weeks of anti-Chinese riots in the local area.

These heavy history made Zhang Xu feel disgusted and angry every time he heard the name of Indonesia.

Therefore, Zhang Xu had to go to this match against Indonesia!

Of course, Wenger did not expect Zhang Xu to have such an idea, but when he saw that Zhang Xu had made a decision, he did not object anymore. He just made a request: to win the next away game against West Bromwich!

"No problem! You're just optimistic!" Zhang Xu laughed and agreed loudly.

At about 4:00 pm on October 6, 2013, the focus game of the 7th round of the 2013/14 English Premier League was held at the Hawthorn Stadium, the home court of West Bromwich.

Arsenal just beat West Brom away in the League Cup 10 days ago. Arsenal lost only one game in the last 12 matches between the two sides, and achieved 9 wins and 2 draws in the remaining 11 games. Arsenal lost only one game to the Hawthorn Stadium in the last 19 times.

In 14 historical matches between the two sides, Arsenal had the upper hand in 10 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, of which 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss away. In 131 historical matches between the two sides, Arsenal had the upper hand in 65 wins, 30 draws and 36 losses.

In this game, Sania was absent due to injury, Gibbs replaced him to start, Arteta also entered the starting position again, and Fermuren continued to sit on the bench.

As for West Bromwich, former Arsenal striker Anelka started against the old owner for West Brom.

At the beginning of the game, Zhang Xu showed a strong offensive momentum and frequently launched an attack on West Bromwich. Under his organization, Arsenal gradually controlled the situation after the start of the game.

In the third minute of the game, Arteta passed the ball near the center line, and Zhang Xu shot angrily from the outside of the penalty area, which was blocked by the opponent's defender.

In the 13th minute of the game, Arsenal got a free kick, and Ramsey's free kick from 30 yards directly missed.

In the 14th minute of the game, Zhang Xu and Anelka faced each other face to face for the first time. Facing the former Arsenal striker, Zhang Xu did not give the other party any mercy. He directly used the "turning the world" skill and unreasonably snatched the football from the opponent's feet.

In the 18th minute of the game, Zhang Xu's offensive organization finally gained something.

When Zhang Xu was dribbling the ball near the center line, he saw that there were no West Bromwich players around Ozil, so he passed it straight and sent the ball to his feet.

After Ozil took the ball, he did not drive the ball, but directly passed it with one pass. The football crossed West Bromwich's defense line, and Walcott shot into the net from a small angle on the left side of the penalty area!

One to zero! Arsenal leads with one goal!

After taking the lead with one goal, Zhang Xu did not relax his offensive against West Bromwich, but instead led his high-spirited teammates to continue bombarding the opponent's goal.

In the 22nd minute of the game, Giroud passed the ball, and Wilhel's shot outside the top of the penalty area missed the post on the right.

In the 34th minute of the game, Zhang Xu passed the ball and Ramsey's 30-yard long shot was confiscated by the opponent's goalkeeper Meiheer.

In the 40th minute of the game, West Brom cleared the corner kick, and Zhang Xu's powerful shot in front of the penalty area was saved by Mehill.

After the side change in the second half, Arsenal still had an offensive under the leadership of Zhang Xu.

In the 46th minute of the game, Giroud passed the ball, and Zhang Xu missed lightly in the middle, and Wilshire from behind shot high from 12 yards on the left side of the penalty area.

In the 56th minute of the game, Rosici replaced Ramsey.

In the 60th minute of the game, Rosici received a half-high ball from Zhang Xu at 25 yards from the goal, and directly volleyed high.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Arsenal expanded the score again.

Zhang Xu made a straight pass in the middle. After Giroud got the ball, he saw that the angle of the shooting had been blocked by the opponent's defender, so he directly passed it back, and Rosici got the ball and passed it across!

Zhang Xu shot with a fury shot from 25 yards away from the goal!

The football hit the opponent's defender Olson's thigh, and the sports route deflected. The West Bromwich goalkeeper couldn't react and watched the football fly into the lower right corner of the goal!

Two to zero!

Arsenal has secured the victory at this point.

In the subsequent games, although Zhang Xu and his teammates did not miss the attack against West Bromwich, their shots were either high or biased, so until the end of the game, the team failed to score again.

The final score is 2 to zero!

Zhang Xu successfully completed the task assigned by Wenger!

After this game, Zhang Xu boarded the plane to fly to China. The national team will gather in the capital and have a simple training camp. After rushing to Indonesia for the third Asian Cup qualifiers!
