At that time, in the Far East Games, whenever the China football team played against the Japanese team, it always scored 5- 1 and 4-0. At the Shanghai Far East Games, China beat the Japanese team 5-0 and won the championship. At the Far East Games held in Japan, China defeated Japan 5-/kloc-0-0 to win the championship again. To this end, the extra headline of Japanese newspapers is "China Football Tiejun, Ten Years in a row". Since then, the praise of "China Tiejun" has spread like wildfire.
1In August, 936, China football team participated in the 1 1 Berlin Olympic Games. At that time, the All-China Sports Federation set up a football selection committee to inspect top football players from all over the country. After three months' selection,1April, 936, the 22-member China Football Team was officially announced, among which Li Huitang, the "king of Asia" and Tan Jiangbai, the father of Alan Tam, a Hong Kong star, were among them. However, the China football team's trip to the Olympic Games is full of hardships, because it is almost impossible to make it with 50,000 yuan ... In order to solve the urgent need, all the staff of the All-China Sports Federation collectively dispatched to seek support from the central departments of the National Government and local governments in various provinces and cities across the country. After an overwhelming "begging action" across the country, a total of 6.5438+0.7 million yuan was raised, but there was still a shortage of 50,000 yuan. Another urgent discussion doomed China's first trip to the world to be full of troubles. The association decided that the football team would raise funds by itself and go to Southeast Asian countries for exhibition games two months in advance, and the ticket income would be used as the cost of participating in the Olympic Games. 1936 in may, China set out from Shanghai and went to Vietnam, Indonesia, Myanmar, India and other countries. In 27 games in two months, 24 wins and 3 draws, many local overseas Chinese even burned incense and worshipped Buddha to welcome China.
In order to save money, during the two-month trip, we all chose the lowest cabin by boat and found the cheapest room in the cheapest hotel. Sometimes when there are not enough beds, we need to make a berth. After arriving in the "land of art", people are either worried that the strong teams will not compete with the China team, or they are afraid that the bad weather will make it impossible to play in rainy days, because it will be difficult to attract a large number of spectators and reduce the ticket income. Even funnier, in order to prevent local organizers from cheating, substitute players had to "check tickets" at the entrance of the stadium during the game. At that time, there was an unwritten rule that the winner could get more ticket income, so the main players played 27 games without landing, even if they were injured or exhausted, they should grit their teeth. During the whole trip to Southeast Asia, the China team earned nearly HK$ 200,000. After arriving in Mumbai, China remitted 50,000 yuan to the China Olympic delegation stranded in China due to lack of funds, which solved the funding problem of the entire China Olympic delegation. After meeting in Mumbai, the two sides went to Berlin, the German capital. The football system of the Berlin Olympic Games in Germany drew lots directly from the very beginning for elimination. If you lose the first game, you go home. After many hardships, China played against England in the first game. But the British intelligence work is very good, and they have heard about China's remarkable achievements in his trip to Southeast Asia. Li Huitang's reputation has already spread all over the British Isles, so the British royal family specially sent a telegram to the English football team to show their encouragement.
1936 On August 6th, at 5: 30 pm, China made its world debut and met the British team in Berlin's Komson Stadium. At that time, there were as many as 10 thousand spectators in this game. At the beginning of the game, the British team, who knew the real situation of the China team, kept a close eye on Li Huitang, making it difficult for them to perform their stunts. In the first half, China's offensive was fierce. Unfortunately, the referee blew off the offside ball after crossing the baseline. After the two teams ended the first half with 0-0, at halftime, the western journalists present lamented that the China team was unexpected and extraordinary. In the second half, the two sides fought again in different places. Due to the continuous campaign in Southeast Asia and the fatigue after arriving in Berlin, the China team gradually lost its strength and eventually lost 2-0, thus ending the "premiere" of China football in the world. Although lost to the British team, but at the foot of the technical and tactical literacy is not weak. After the game, China's performance attracted the attention of European football powers, and British newspapers spoke highly of China, so European countries sent telegrams to invite China to play. In Paris, France, China drew with Paris Red Star, a strong team in the French professional league, which surprised Li Huitang. At the dinner after the game, the general manager of the Red Star team directly found Li Huitang with a work contract and asked him to stay in Paris with generous treatment. At that time, the International Olympic Committee banned professional athletes from participating in the Olympic Games. Li Huitang flatly refused: "I will continue to represent China in the Olympic Games."
In London, England, China drew with British professional league champion Corrington. Watching the game, the Arsenal manager pointed to Li Huitang and said with regret, "If you are young 10, I will definitely keep you at Arsenal and never let you go back to China." China has been fighting for the championship in Asia for a long time, and has achieved good results in Asian-level events such as the Asian Cup and the Asian Games, and once qualified in the Asian qualifiers of the World Cup. Football is very popular in China. About 30 million spectators watched the match of China in the 2002 World Cup. The audience watching the final of the 2004 Asian Cup football match even exceeded this figure.
In 2005, China won the men's soccer championship in the 2005 East Asian Football Championship and the men's soccer gold medal in the Macau East Asian Games.
