On February 7, Beijing time, at the final of the 2022 Women's Football Asian Cup held on the evening of the 6th, the Chinese women's football team turned the tide in the case of 0-2 behind, chased 3 goals in a row to complete a super reversal, and finally defeated the South Korean team 3-2 to win the Asian Cup championship, which is the 9th Asian Cup championship in the history of the Chinese women's football team, after 16 years, it has achieved such an achievement again, and the last time it won the championship was back in 2006.
It should be known that today's Chinese women's football team is no longer the world's top team in the sonorous rose period of the past, and in the Asian football world of the past ten years, the Japanese women's football team is the hegemon. However, the Chinese women's football team was stunned to eliminate the Japanese women's football team in the semi-final penalty shootout, and also completed a stunning reversal in the final to defeat South Korea and win the championship smoothly, this achievement is rare, and it is a case that can go down in history.
Due to the difficulty of winning the championship, after finally achieving the achievement of winning the championship, the Chinese women's football coach Shui Qingxia was very excited, shouted with her arms, and even cried out, at this moment Shui Qingxia released her own pressure. The Chinese women's football team lost many games in the group stage of the Tokyo Olympic Games, and even failed to qualify, so the then women's football coach Jia Xiuquan was dismissed, and the Chinese women's football team also fell into an absolute downturn. And it is Shui Qingxia who took over this hot potato, who took charge at the most difficult time of the team, Shui Qingxia undertook a lot of pressure, and now this pressure is completely released, and tears are the best witness.
It is worth mentioning that this time leading the Chinese women's football team to win the championship successfully, Shui Qingxia also completed several historical records, and even the achievement of the first person in history. As a former Professional Chinese women's football player, Shui Qingxia won the Women's Asian Championship five times in 1986, 1989, 1991, 1995 and 1997; then in November 2021, Shui Qingxia became the head coach of the Chinese women's national women's football team, and finally led the women's football team to win the Asian Cup in 2022, achieving six consecutive Asian Cups! In addition, Shui Qingxia is also the first female coach to lead the Chinese women's football team to win the championship, this record is the achievement of the first person in history, which is enough to reflect the greatness of Shui Qingxia!
From another point of view, Shui Qingxia can also be described as a blessing in Chinese football, bringing good luck to the Chinese women's football team, every time she participates in the Asian Cup, she can win the championship, this achievement is unique, and no one else can do the same as Shui Qingxia.
Being able to lead the Chinese women's football team to win this extremely difficult Asian Cup title, Shui Qingxia eased the plight of Chinese football slightly, after the Chinese men's football team lost to Vietnam in the World Preliminary Round, so that the entire domestic fan group did not hope for the development of Chinese football, and even let the "Chinese football team disband" sound appeared. This situation is extremely serious, when the fans have abandoned Chinese football, then the sport will lose its charm. Fortunately, in the end, the Chinese women's football team's Asian Cup victory became a shot in the arm, re-letting the fans see hope, hoping that Shui Qingxia could lead the Chinese women's football team to create more good results and let Chinese football continue to shine!
