The list of players of China team in Berlin Olympic Games and the players above the basic situation are basically outstanding in skills and abilities, such as Bao Jiaping, Huang Meishun, Sun.
Some of these players have some national team competition experience, such as Li Huitang, who participated in many international competitions including the 5th to 10th Far East Games football matches with the national team from 192 1. So the China team composed of these players can basically represent the highest level of football in China at that time.
On August 6th, 1936, Thomson Stadium in Berlin was packed with thousands of spectators. German Ambassador to China Cheng Tian Fang led 500 to 600 overseas Chinese and students to help China.
Of course, the British team against China didn't take China seriously. Even the British don't know that China has a national football team. At first, the British rudely stormed across the board, trying to eat their opponents in one bite.
Unexpectedly, the China team did not show weakness and began to play offensive football. The British team was a little dizzy and unstoppable for a while. The two sides are coming and going, and there is a fierce battle.
It's a pity that Sun kicked volley and the football flew over the post. The others had several chances, but none of them scored. Seeing Li Huitang's bravery, two British defenders kept staring at him, making it difficult for him to exert his strength. Here, the British offensive is also very fierce, and it is resolved by Chen and goalkeeper Bao Jiaping. The fierce battle lasted for dozens of minutes, and the first half ended with 0-0.
Objectively speaking, the strength of the China team is not as good as that of the British team, and it depends entirely on one breath. To make matters worse, long-term fatigue and irregular diet have greatly reduced the physical strength of China players. As a result, the exhausted China players began to lose.
In the second half, the China team began to deform and could not run. The British took the opportunity to storm and scored two goals in a row. Finally, China was eliminated 0-2.
If you lose, you don't lose. Throughout the game, China players performed quite well and their style was very tenacious, which impressed the European audience.
After the game, the European media showed great respect for China: China's football level was no less than that of the top European teams, and the main reason for its failure was physical exhaustion. European football experts also believe that China's football team's technical flow kicking method is quite excellent, and it is really unlucky not to score a goal.
At the peak of modern times, China football has already possessed the strength to compete with some European football powers.
The result of a football match depends not only on the strength comparison between the two sides, but also on many off-court factors. China, which failed to play its best due to off-court factors, finally lost in the first round of the Berlin Olympic Games against Britain.
However, in this and subsequent matches with real European powers, China proved that China football at the peak of modern times had the strength to compete with some European football powers to some extent.
