Entering the later era of the Chinese Super League, Beijing Guoan, who had been waiting for a long time, finally reached the top of the league championship in 2009, which was also the only time that Guoan, whose slogan was "always fighting for the first", won the championship temporarily.

In terms of the stardom of the team, Beijing Guoan, which has many local talents and a superior home city location, has not lacked green talents over the years, and many well-known Chinese players have stopped in Beijing Guoan or made their debut in Beijing Guoan and become a good memory of football for a generation of Beijing fans.
In this article, the author will comprehensively take stock of the top ten domestic players in the history of Beijing Guoan team in addition to the most impressive domestic players in the history of the Beijing Guoan team for reference. Of course, due to the limitation of space, if there is a debatable place or a choice of lost pearls, the author is right to throw bricks and stones, and all fans are welcome to leave a message in the comment area to share supplements.
10. Zhang Xizhe
One thing to say is that Zhang Xizhe really does not have the ability to gain a foothold in the Bundesliga and does not show enough of the top ten generals in the national team, but at the level of the Chinese Super League, he who has threatened to pass the number of local players for a long time in the league rankings, in fact, he has a more successful career than most of his peers, and is the leader of beijing Guoan's contemporary players.
As a midfielder, he has played in more than 300 matches for Guoan since winning the championship as a rookie player in 2009. In the Beijing-Tianjin derby in August 2020, Zhang Xizhe scored his 41st goal in Beijing, surpassing his predecessor Tao Wei and joining the guoan team's all-time goalscorer, and has been refreshing and consolidating his record ever since.
IX. Yang Zhi
In the history of the Beijing Guoan team, Yang Zhi is a very special celebrity. Born in Guangzhou, he played for the Guangdong youth team in his early years and really debuted in the Shenzhen Kejian Club, when he played a famous role together in his youth and played in the low-level league, and was Wu Pingfeng and Wu Wei'an, who later became the main force of the two teams in Guangzhou.
In 2005, Shenzhen Kejian disbanded, and the members of the team went their separate ways. At that time when the difference in styles between the north and the south was obvious and the atmosphere confrontation was strong, unlike the choice of most outstanding young players in Guangdong, Yang Zhi went all the way north and stayed in Beijing Guoan for fourteen years.
During this period, he became the national gate of the Chinese national team during the time period when Gao Hongbo joined the national football team, helped Guoan win the Chinese Super League championship, refreshed the longest time in the history of the team maintained by Li Leilei, and personally took over the captain's armband after Xu Yunlong.
After the retirement of ou chuliang and Peng Weiguo's generation of southern players, under the help of Gao Hongbo, who is also a famous beijing guoan, Yang Zhi, who has been famous for many years, has become a Guangdong person who has re-played the main force of the national team, and The Guangdong players have also become the captain of Beijing, which is actually quite interesting to think about.
VIII. Cao Zhidong
Cao Zhidong, who plays as a midfielder, can be said to be an idol star in the Chinese football circle in the 1990s, with good personal strength, and Gao Feng, Xie Feng, and Gao Hongbo are collectively known as the "Four Famous Catches in Beijing", which is a classic memory of a generation of Guoan fans.
In terms of the field, Cao Zhidong has elegant style, full of spirit, strong ability to play the ball, enjoys the name of "golden left foot", and his strength has also been selected for the national football team in the 1990s, and he has been selected for the league's annual best team twice; his appearance is also Yushu Linfeng, a table of talents, and is deeply loved by female fans.
According to the recollections of the well-known actor Gao Yuanyuan, when she was studying, she, like many girls who loved football in Beijing at that time, sent love letters to the club to Cao Zhidong. Unfortunately, Cao Zhidong left Beijing Guoan after the team rebuilt and changed blood in 1997, and stopped in Qingdao Manatee and Beijing Kuanli successively, and his personal status was also due to the rapid decline in injury factors, and he hung up his boots and retired in 2001.
7. Peak
Gao Feng, the footballer gave the nickname "Fast Knife Prodigal Son", the well-known singer Na Ying's striker, active in the 1990s strong winger, his career has played for Beijing Guoan, Qianwei Huandao, Shenyang Haishi, Tianjin Teda and other teams, in his heyday, he was known for his fast speed and outstanding individual breakthrough ability in Chinese football.
After entering the A-A era, Gao Feng and his other teammates created the first peak period in the history of the Beijing Guoan team. Because of the flowing style of the ball, extraordinary strength, hot personality, coupled with the lace news outside the field, the peak of personal recognition is very high, and at that time, it can be said that it was a well-discussed famous player in the Chinese football circle. Unfortunately, the peak of the player era is not very disciplined, the peak period ends very early, and after retiring, he becomes an addict, and his good reputation is lost early because he can't control himself.

In addition, Xie Feng is known for his attributes as a giant killer and has made it easier to score goals against strong teams in his career.
Haruka remembers that Xie Feng and Gao Feng, who are faster, used to be a classic topic that A A's old fans discussed with relish. Borrowing the evaluation of the old captain Han Xu, in contrast, Xie Feng's speed is more reflected in the speed after the start, which is the type of acceleration that runs faster and faster, while the peak's start-up explosion at a short distance is more obvious.
Fifth, Gao Hongbo

Unfortunately, after the beginning of the first year of professionalization in 1994, Gao Hongbo, the "cold-faced killer" who was not physically superior but could rank among the top players in football at that time, had to go away to the Singapore League to pan for gold for a year, and waited until 1995 to cancel the practice before returning to the team. In the follow-up review of such an experience, Gao Hongbo also said helplessly: I am not a person who can run particularly, I am a person who solves problems in front of the door.
After returning to the team in 1995, Gao Hongbo continued his peak performance a little, scoring 11 goals, second only to Fan Zhiyi, who scored 15 goals, and ranked second in the top scorer list that year. In the 1996 season the following year, Gao Hongbo played well in the FA Cup and led Beijing Guoan to win the first championship since the professional era. The meritorious shooter of Chong Jia A, the hero of the first professional championship in the history of the team, and the first local champion cultivated in the history of beijing guoan team, these three titles alone are enough to make Gao Hongbo enjoy a high position in the history of the Beijing team.
