But Zhang Xiao is so special. He is different from ordinary players. He does not need to train at all. He can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, and it will not affect the next game at all.

So coach Robin did not strictly control him.

Of course, Zhang Xiao is not an unscrupulous person. Today is the first time that he has gone out to drink with his friends.

We found a tavern owned by Chinese people, and everyone exchanged glasses and started drinking.

Wu Jin gave Zhang Xiao a thumbs up and said: "Brother, you are so awesome, you are so proud of me."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Now I have just entered the semi-finals. When I get the Hercules Cup, it will not be too late for you to praise me again."

"Hahaha!" Wu Jin laughed and said, "Seeing you are so confident, I believe we are not far away from winning the Hercules Cup."

"It all depends on people!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "As long as you work hard, you will definitely gain something."

Maybe it's because there are too few Chinese pubs in this city, so everyone only drank for a while before many Chinese people came here.

After hearing that Zhang Xiao was in the tavern, everyone came to congratulate him one after another. The box that originally had only six people turned into 23 people.

There was no other way, so Zhang Xiao had to change to a particularly large private room and drink with everyone.

After drinking for three hours, everyone dispersed.

Since there was no competition the next day, Zhang Xiao and Reba walked around the city together, bought a lot of unique gadgets, and asked her to take them back to Yang Mi and the others.

We played until nine o'clock in the evening before Zhang Xiao returned to the team's hotel.

"Reba, pay attention to your safety and call me in time if anything happens." Zhang Xiao warned.

Reba smiled and said: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I have four bodyguards around me, there won't be any problem."

Zhang Xiao nodded, then got into the car and returned to the hotel.

At this time, the Chinese team's semi-final opponent has been revealed, and it is the Eagle team.

The other two teams are Brazil and F. Compared with the sanctions, the Eagles should be the weakest among the three teams. Even their strength is not as good as the previous Portuguese and Italian teams.

.

This is very beneficial to the Chinese team.

As before, coach Robin called everyone together to watch all the games of the Eagle Country in this World Cup.

Zhang Xiao found that this team was an offensive team, but its offensive power was far inferior to that of Putao Pair, and its defense was very poor.

After watching the game, Robin asked: "Wang Mi, do you dare to fight with them?"

Wang Mi said loudly: "Of course I dare to come. The defense of the Eagle Country is far behind that of the Italian team, let alone the Italian team. Even it is far behind the Portuguese team. I think we are very hopeful that we can penetrate their goal."

"

"However, this will put a lot of pressure on our defense."

Robin heard this and looked at Zhang Xiao, who said confidently: "I still say what I said, no one five meters away can break the goal I guard."

Luo Bing nodded and said: "Then let's do it and fight with them."

After determining the tactics, the Chinese team entered closed training.

Three days later, the match between the Chinese team and the Eagle team began.

What everyone didn't expect was that the attack method used by the Eagle Nation team was so radical. Their number of attackers reached six, almost all of them attacking.

Zhang Xiao estimated that after watching the last game, the Eagle Country felt that his goalkeeping ability was too terrible, so they were unwilling to drag the game into a penalty shootout.

Since then, Zhang Xiao has been very busy.

In just the first 25 minutes of the first half, he had already saved 13 threatening shots. Upon seeing this, Robin immediately changed his tactics and chose a defensive counterattack.

Results soon came. In the 36th minute of the first half, Wang Mijie received Luo Feng's exquisite pass. With his skillful football skills, he broke through the two defenders of the Eagle Country team and directly entered the opponent's goal.

The penalty area caused a foul by the opponent's defender.

Wang Mi did it in one go and took the penalty kick that penetrated the opponent's goal, helping the Chinese team get the first point and the score became 1:0.

After establishing a one-goal advantage, the Chinese team switched to a comprehensive defense and adopted man-to-man tactics. Until the end, the score was always 1:0, and the Chinese team gained a ticket to the finals.

The entire football field immediately became excited.

Tens of thousands of fans sang the song that everyone across the country can sing.

Countless elderly fans were so excited that their eyes filled with tears.

"Successful."

"We're in the finals."

"Attack towards the Hercules Cup."

"I never thought that I would be able to see the outbreak of Chinese football in my lifetime. Now I will die knowing it."

"Chinese football is on the rise!"

“···”

Major media outlets around the world have reported on the miracle created by the Chinese football team in this World Cup.

However, without exception, they all attributed the credit for the Chinese team's consecutive victories to Zhang Xiao.

Not to mention anything else, you can see his role just because he saved 31 shots from the Eagle Country.

Without Zhang Xiao, the strength of the entire Chinese football team will definitely drop by countless levels.

Seeing that the Chinese national football team reached the finals of this World Cup, the relevant leaders of the Chinese Football Association could not sit still and rushed over from home.

"Mr. Zhang, on behalf of the Chinese Football Association, I would like to thank you for your help. Without you, we would not have achieved such good results."

When president Zhu Neng came to the hotel to meet the players, he took the lead in extending his hand to Zhang Xiao and said with a smile on his face.

Zhang Xiao actually disliked such politeness in his heart, but he showed a professional smile on his face and said: "President Zhu, our team can reach the finals only because of the hard work of all the coaches and players, and only on me."
