Yangzhou players staged wonderful barb breaks

Speaking of Yangzhou players in the Chinese professional football league, in addition to Ji Xiang of Shandong Taishan Club, who plays for the Chinese Super League, and Wu Gong, who plays for Henan Songshan Longmen Club, there are many Yangzhou players active in the Chinese First Division, The Chinese Second Division and the Chinese Championship, including Xu Jun, who is 26 years old this year. This season, Xu Jun played for the Yichun Wei tigers in the Chinese Second League, wearing the No. 11 shirt, and was the main midfielder of the team.

Although the team is currently in a somewhat dangerous situation in the relegation group, Xu Jun's performance in the second stage of the league is quite good. In the first round of the league against Shaanxi Beyond the Team, Yichun Weihu relied on Xu Jun's goal to kill the opponent with one goal and achieve a good start. In the fourth round against the U20 national youth team and the fifth round against wuxi Wu hook team, Xu Jun staged a good scene of scoring goals, especially against the U20 national youth team, Xu Jun in the 35th minute, received a cross from his teammate, volleyed a barb near the penalty spot to score, this wonderful shot is also one of the best goals in the second division of the season. It is a pity that these two key relegation battles, Yichun Weihu did not achieve the final victory.

After xu jun scored his third goal in the second stage in the fifth round, he tied for the first place in the relegation group (Qiannan Division) with Xu Chunqing of Wuxi Wu Hook and Wen Jialong of Hubei Youth Star.

The club boss twice went to Yangzhou to seek talent

Xu Jun was born in Yangzhou in 1995 and debuted at the Tianjin Lokomotiv Club, which has the reputation of "Ajax of China". From an early age, Xu Jun has shown excellent football talent. In the third grade of primary school, he was favored by former international footballer Hu Yanyu, who received professional training at the Yangzhou Sports Center Stadium at that time, and after being recommended by enlightenment coach Wu Jian, Xu Jun was favored by Tianjin Locomotive Club.

At that time, Xu Jun had not yet graduated from primary school, and he was going to leave his parents and go away from home, which also made his parents very embarrassed. In order to get Xu Jun's jade, Wang Guangtai, a famous football player in Tianjin who was the deputy general manager of Tianjin Locomotive Football Club at the time, went to Yangzhou twice to do the work of Xu Jun's parents. In the end, Xu Jun's parents agreed that Xu Jun, who had just entered the fifth grade of primary school, would go north to Tianjin for training.

"For a child who has not yet graduated from primary school, the club boss personally went south, which is probably rare in Chinese football." Wu Jian said, "At that time, Wang Guangtai told me that it was the first time that he had moved the crowd like this, but he was really optimistic about Xu Jun. ”

After joining the Tianjin Lokomotiv Club, Xu Jun improved rapidly and was selected for the Chinese Junior Team in 2008. In 2009, Xu Jun participated in the first Asian Youth Games as the main back of the national junior team and helped the Chinese team reach the final four.

However, just when Xu Jun's football career showed excellent upward momentum, Tianjin Locomotive Club announced its dissolution, and Xu Jun's football road almost died. Fortunately, Zhu Jinxing, the head coach of the national junior team who favored Xu Jun, had become the head coach of the Jiangsu All-Games team at that time, so Xu Jun was able to return to his hometown and join the Jiangsu All-Games team.

After the 2013 National Games, Xu Jun did not choose to sign with Jiangsu Sainty, but joined the Shanghai Lucky Star Club. Shortly after Xu Jun joined the Lucky Star Club, Shanghai Shenhua acquired the Lucky Star Club's 95-year-old echelon. Xu Jun also became a member of Shenhua.

From the brink of retirement he was reborn in Nirvana

In the 2015 season, the Frenchman Gilot became the head coach of the Shenhua team, and The newcomer Gilot promoted Xu Jun to the Shenhua first team after taking office. In the Chinese Super League that year, Xu Jun, who had just turned 20, got the opportunity to play and nearly scored in the match against Liaoning Hongyun. Xu Jun also became the third Yangzhou player to play in the Chinese Super League after Ji Xiang and Wu Gong.

However, with Gillow's dismissal, Xu Jun was also sent to the reserve team in the 2016 season.

A year ago, Xu Jun almost retired due to injury. In 2020, Xu Jun was treating injuries while looking for a team. In the end, in the 2021 season, Xu Jun was favored by Jiangxi Yichun Weihu and was able to join this team in the Chinese Second Division.

Back on the road, Xu Jun always believes that as long as you persist and work hard, there will be a return! Maybe one day in the future, we will have the opportunity to see him in the Chinese Super League. Reporter Fu Chunyang text/photo
