Reporter Wang Wei reported that on the evening of February 6, in the final of the Asian Cup in India, the Chinese women's football team staged a reverse killing miracle, 3-2 to beat the South Korean women's football team, won the championship after 16 years, and scored a goal to lock the championship, xiao Yuyi, who was born in Xiashan Street, Chaonan District, Shantou City, Guangdong Province, and some fans exclaimed, "Xiao Yuyi fell from the sky." ”
On February 9, Cheng Zhiwen, director of the Guangdong Football Sports Center and vice chairman of the Provincial Football Association, and Deng Huanhuan, deputy director of the Guangdong Football Sports Center, vice chairman and secretary general of the Provincial Football Association, came to Xiashan Street, Chaonan District, Shantou City, visited and comforted Xiao Yuyi's family and congratulated them.
Cheng Zhiwen said: "Through the exchange with Xiao Yuyi's family, her experience is easy to recall the success of Gu Ailing, who just won the Beijing Winter Olympics, the growth of players is inseparable from the education and support of their families, they have been training and playing outside for a long time, and the support and care from relatives is an important factor to help players grow into talents." ”
Xiao Yuyi, born in 1996, is the youngest in the family, she also has two older brothers, and all three children are the heart of her father Xiao Shaozhen and her mother Weng Wenxian.
When Xiao Yuyi was 9 years old, Xiao Shaozhen went to Shanghai to work. There are few family migrations to start a business in other places, but Xiao Shaozhen took three children with him and did not let them become left-behind children. "My dad was very family-oriented and wouldn't abandon us, he was afraid that the children would go the wrong way." Second brother Xiao Yuyi said.
"People who go to work or work in other places are likely to let their children give up their studies and go out to work hard." But my dad was different, he felt that children should receive a certain degree of higher education, even if they go to Shanghai, they must receive a good education, and they can't go to work without graduating from junior high school. The second brother Xiao Yuyi said, "Now all three of us brothers and sisters are very grateful to dad, and his decision to take us to Shanghai together was correct." He worked in Shanghai, we followed him, my sister learned football, and we also learned a lot, especially English. ”
After arriving in Shanghai, Xiao Yuyi quickly transferred to the Shanghai Hongkou Experimental School with women's football projects as its specialty, and in the second grade, Zhang Guibao, a retired member of the Shanghai women's football team and a special coach of the Hongkou District Sports Bureau, went to the school to select someone to form a women's school team, and at a glance, he fell in love with Xiao Yuyi.
At the Asian Cup, people saw Xiao Yuyi's goal against the South Korean team in the final, and before that, she also had such a goal - at the 2021 Shaanxi National Games, her goal helped the united team win the championship.
"The perfect killer is inseparable from the efforts of the coaching staff and all the players." Xiao Yuyi's second brother said, "This time the women's football team won the championship, thanks to the guidance of Shui Qingxia, the water guide has taken Xiao Yuyi for more than ten years, just like half a mother." How to use Xiao Yuyi, Shui Qingxia is more understanding, this time she used Xiao Yuyi to the extreme. ”
Xiao Yuyi's family has been paying attention to the development of women's football sports over the years, "Just as the water guide said, don't pay attention to women's football because of an Asian Cup champion, we sincerely hope that all sectors of society will continue to pay attention to Chinese women's football, which is very important for the development of Chinese women's football." ”
When she is on vacation, Xiao Yuyi will return to Guangzhou, sometimes looking for her own stadium to train, and her brother knows her situation very well, "She is a shadow striker and has a fighting spirit on the field." In the past, when the whole family was in Shanghai, after the training competition, she liked to be around her family, liked to eat beef balls, and liked to eat Chaoshan cuisine. She is also versatile, and I remember that she also won awards in karaoke competitions held at the Oriental Green Boat Base. ”
Talking about the killer goal in the final, Cheng Zhiwen said that it showed Xiao Yuyi's solid basic skills and ability to seize opportunities at key moments. The growth of players is inseparable from the education and support of their families, they have been training outside for a long time, and the support and care from relatives is an important factor to help players grow into talents. Cheng Zhiwen stressed that in Xiao Yuyi, we can see the spiritual quality of Shantou people who are tenacious and tenacious.
"My sister has not accepted defeat since she was a child, and my eldest brother and I are the same, who used to be better at sports in school, and has been a school basketball team and track team since childhood. In the past Games in Hongkou District, three of us brothers and sisters competed in the same field. Second brother Xiao Yuyi said.
In the process of Xiao Yuyi learning to play, there is such a story, "When the younger sister took the sports school, it was her father and eldest brother who went with her, and when she wanted to enter the Shanghai Sports School, she wanted to conduct a physical test, running 8,000 meters, running 20 laps on the field of 400 meters, and the last few laps, the sister ran with tears on her waist, and her father and brother cried at the scene." At that time, her sister's explosiveness was good, her endurance was not so strong, but she cried and had to complete the physical fitness test, her family respected her ideas very much, she liked football, and her family supported her to participate fully and support her to play football. Xiao Yuyi's second brother told reporters.
Xiao Yuyi was injured when she was a child and returned home without saying a word, sometimes her family asked her, she would always say that it was a small matter, it was okay, at most let her mother do a massage and pass. After ten years of living and working in Shanghai, Xiao Yuyi's family first returned to Guangzhou from Shanghai to work, and two years later, his parents also returned to Guangdong, when Xiao Yuyi was 20 years old.
After the family returned to Guangdong, Xiao Yuyi stayed in Shanghai alone to play football. "Our family has a very good habit, no matter where my sister is, after eating, she will video connect, talk about home, basically every day without falling." Second brother Xiao Yuyi said.
Family education, support and guidance are very important for the growth of athletes. "Xiao Yuyi usually in the Shanghai women's football base, when we are in Shanghai, she will go home on the weekend, now not in Shanghai, she will go to the relatives in Shanghai, although these years are not by her side, but we have been through video communication, encounter any problems will communicate, together to find a way to solve." Second brother Xiao Yuyi said.
In exchanges with Xiao Yuyi's family, Cheng Zhiwen and Deng Huanhuan said that the Asian Cup championship is of great significance to the development of women's football. Xiao Yuyi's family said that they would participate in more sports activities in their hometown in the future and make more contributions to the Shantou Asian Youth Association.
Xiao Yuyi is very talented in football, she went to Shanghai, where the football atmosphere is relatively good, and met a good coach like Shui Qingxia. That's what makes her successful. Cheng Zhiwen said.
Cheng Zhiwen also pointed out: "I attach more importance to Xiao Yuyi's family education, and this Beijing Winter Olympics Gu Ailing has attracted widespread attention from the society, in large part because of her mother's careful training, which has also led the people to think about how to educate and cultivate children." Even if she can't win the championship, she can become a good talent in different industries, even if there is no achievement, but at least there is a healthy and happy life. Therefore, I think the education and guidance of the family is very important. The parents and family have nurtured and encouraged Xiao Yuyi for so many years is very important. ”
In fact, on the road of football, Xiao Yuyi has also encountered difficulties and setbacks, but the support of her family has helped her to overcome continuously, "Her family has given her great encouragement and support, so that she can keep playing." ”
"Xiao Yuyi's success also tells us that there are many factors to increase the football population, but the support of families is indispensable." Cheng Zhiwen said, "Xiao Yuyi's parents attach great importance to family education and take her with them at the primary school stage, indicating that they have put their children's education in an important position, so that Xiao Yuyi can persist at a very important stage." The education and companionship of the family is important. I hope that in the future, women's football players, men's football players, including teenagers, families should give more support, and with the support of their families, children can better persevere. ”
"Xiao Yuyi became a talent in Shanghai, and the Asian Cup gave the platform and passed on a very broad concept of sports." Cheng Zhiwen said, "Through Xiao Yuyi's success, we also see the importance of attention from all walks of life. I hope that the community will support women's football for a long time. ”
