The 22 members of China Men's Football Olympic Team are Bao Jiaping, Huang, Mai Shaohan, Cai, Liang Shutang, Liang, Xu Yahui, Huang Meishun, Chen,, Cao Guicheng, Jia Youliang, Feng Jingxiang, Yang Shuiyi, Zhang Xianyuan, Sun Jinshun and Zhuo Shishi.
The soul of the team is Li Huitang, who led the team to dominate the 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and10th Far East Games, and was named "Asian Football King" by AFC 1928. Li Huitang scored an astonishing 1860 goals in various official competitions in his career, so that in the 1970s, when he had already retired from the Jianghu, the Global Football magazine of the Federal Republic of Germany organized the selection of the world's soccer kings, and Li Huitang was still named "the top five soccer kings in the world" together with Brazil's Pele, Britain's Matthews, Spain's Stifano and Hungarian Serbs.
Li Huitang's weight attracted the special attention of the British team. As early as two or three months before the Olympic Games, they asked overseas Chinese about him. Sure enough, at the Olympic Games on August 6th, the British team arranged two players to keep an eye on Li Huitang.
In the first half of the match, the China men's football team launched a fierce attack on the British men's football team. The ball shot by China threatened the goal of the British team many times. Sun, nicknamed "Iron Leg", once played for the British men's soccer team, but it was a pity that the ball was offside. In the end, the two teams ended the first half with a 0-0 draw.
After the game started in the second half, the China team members' two-month trip to Southeast Asia and its influence appeared, and their physical strength gradually appeared. After 70 minutes, right-back Xu Yahui had a calf cramp. At this time, the British team got a corner kick and scored a goal, taking the lead of 1:0. Soon after, after China conceded a goal, England scored another goal. In the end, the score of 0:2 was kept to the end, and China men's soccer team lost the first game.
In fact, the defeat of this game has laid the groundwork for the China men's soccer team. At that time, although the China men's soccer team got tickets for the Olympic Games, the funds and donations they received were not enough for their travel expenses to Europe. In desperation, this China men's soccer Olympic team came up with a way to make money and went to Southeast Asia to perform as a street performer. They make money by playing games and selling tickets.
In this way, the team first borrowed a sum of money from Indonesian overseas Chinese to raise enough start-up funds, and then before the departure of the China Olympic delegation on May 2, 1936. They successively bypassed Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, India and other countries, and earned more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars in ticket income through friendly matches with football teams along the way, and remitted 50,000 yuan to the Olympic delegation to help them solve the problem of going to Germany to participate in the Olympic Games.
It is worth mentioning that the team played 27 friendly matches in the away game for more than two months (almost the amount of matches in one season of the league) and achieved an unbeaten record of 23 wins and 4 draws. During this period, in order to save money, players take the lowest cabin by boat, eat the most affordable food, live in the cheapest room, and even live in Datong and the floor.
