Wang Shuang was born in an unhappy family, and her parents did not get along and often quarreled. When she was 5 years old, the family finally collapsed, and Wang Shuang watched her mother leave with her bag, and her father had no intention of taking care of her.
"Why don't they want me anymore?" The little Wang Shuang burst into tears and couldn't sleep all night.
The pain of being abandoned by her relatives tormented Wang Shuang's young heart. She didn't understand what she had done wrong and why she had been abandoned. The life under the fence made Wang Shuang feel sad and helpless.
Fortunately, my uncle and aunt are kind-hearted people. They accepted Wang Shuang and treated her as their daughter, so that Wang Shuang gradually got out of the pain and started a new life.
"I will be forever grateful for their kindness. Wang Shuang wrote in her diary.
Another turning point in her life occurred as Wang Shuang gradually adapted to her new surroundings – she began to learn Xi play soccer and showed amazing talent. Accompanied by her uncle and brother, this decision changed Wang Shuang's fate and allowed her to find a new direction in life.
Little Wang Shuang started to run on the pitch, focusing on every stoppage, every shot. The football field is a paradise for her to let go of her worries and devote herself to passion. Here, she is not an abandoned child, but a confident contestant.
Time flies, Wang Shuang has grown into an excellent football player, and she has gradually let go of her childhood pains. However, that turning point is still vivid in her mind, and it changed the trajectory of her life and allowed Wang Shuang to continue to move forward bravely.
Wang Shuang followed her brother into the football training class, and at first she was only responsible for picking up the ball. But during a training session, coach Bi stumbled upon her outstanding potential.
That day, Wang Shuang was sitting on the sidelines and saw a jumping ball land on the grass not far from her. She quickly caught up with it, and with a flick of her right foot, the ball drew a perfect parabola and landed at the feet of her brother, who was training, with unmistakable accuracy.
"This little sister is good!" Teacher Bi smiled and admired. He asked Wang Shuang to join the training to test her basic skills. Surprisingly, Wang Shuang did not panic with her brother's passing, and her steals, blocks, and shots were all in place and full of explosiveness.
"I found her to be a well-trained jade with a lot of football talent. Teacher Bi said to Wang Shuang's family. Under his strong recommendation, 12-year-old Wang Shuang entered the women's football specialty of the sports school.
Professional training has allowed Wang Shuang's talent to grow rapidly. The data shows that it took her just two years to be selected for the national youth team, and it took another two and a half years to qualify for the senior national team.
"She's growing at a remarkable rate and has a bright future. The coach commented on Wang Shuang, who is short in stature but has outstanding skills.
However, Wang Shuang's mother is not optimistic about her daughter's football. "When you marry in the future, will your husband's family agree?" She worries that her daughter will be looked down upon in the future. But with the encouragement of her uncle and aunt, Wang Shuang did not give up her dream.
With her excellent strength and outstanding performance, she gradually made the people around her see the potential of women's football. "I'm going to prove to everyone who doubts that girls can shine on this green field.
Wang Shuang secretly made up her mind.
After unremitting efforts, Wang Shuang has grown from an unknown little girl to a leader of the Chinese women's football team step by step. And that turning point in discovering her talent opened the door to her path to football.
At the age of 18, Wang Shuang traveled to South Korea alone and joined a local club. The rigorous training and life allowed her to experience the first independent experience in her life.
When she first came to South Korea, Wang Shuang had problems with even basic communication. "I only know 'hello' and 'thank you', and I don't know anything else. She felt both lost and anxious.
Quite different from training in her native environment, Wang Shuang had to work extra hard to keep up.
At first, she sat on the bench for half a year. Finally one day, the main player was injured, and Wang Shuang ushered in the opportunity to play. "This may be my only chance to prove myself!" She clenched her fists secretly.
In just 20 minutes, she was aggressive, making a number of tackles and earning valuable chances for the team.
However, disappointingly, Wang Shuang was soon transferred out of the venue. "I know the coach still doesn't think well of me. She came to the locker room with red eyes.
There are still many opportunities for her teammates to comfort her, but Wang Shuang understands that she is about to lose hope.
"No, I must not give up. Wang Shuang wiped away her tears and began a crazy training. The stats show that in the following season, the Chinese girl contributed seven goals to the team, became one of the team's top scorers, and was voted the best player in the Korea Cup.
One day a few years later, the coach announced that Wang Shuang would transfer to a strong team in France. This is a huge opportunity for this post-90s player. "The coach believes that I have what it takes to play in the higher leagues.
Wang Shuang was overjoyed.
When Wang Shuang wore her new jersey and arrived at her brand new home stadium, she firmly told herself: "I will continue to work hard to let the world witness the potential of Chinese girls." ”
When the time comes to 2021, the Chinese women's football team is facing a major choice. A win in the World Cup qualifiers against the South Korean women's football team will qualify for the Olympics.
The two sides engaged in a fierce duel.
The first half was a 0-0 draw. In the 78th minute of the second half, the Chinese team got a penalty opportunity. "We have to take this opportunity!" The manager shouted loudly from the sidelines.
The team decided to take the penalty kick by Wang Shuang.
"I will definitely kick the penalty kick and win glory for the country!" Wang Shuang is full of confidence in herself. She took a deep breath and calmly took the ball, facing the goal head-on.
"Goal!" Wang Shuang raised her hands and cheered, and the whole team rushed to the field to celebrate her.
Soon after, Wang Shuang received another personal honor. The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) selected the annual "Best Asian Women's Football Player", and Wang Shuang stood out with her key goals and stable and outstanding performance, and was successfully elected as this year's "Miss Asian Football".
"It's the best reward for my hard work. Wang Shuang cried with joy. Along the way, she has consistently played for the national team, playing alongside her teammates.
Now, she has finally reached a new peak in her life, and this honor is the greatest recognition of her many efforts and dedication.
Fast forward to 2023, and another Women's World Cup kicks off in Australia. Wang Shuang, as the absolute core of the Chinese team, was naturally selected for the list.
Everyone has high hopes for her to achieve another great result.
However, what is surprising is that the head coach refused to let Wang Shuang participate in two warm-up games during the pre-season training camp. "We want to give more opportunities to the future rookies.
"The coach's explanation was incredible.
In the first group game, the Chinese team did not perform well and lost 0-4. Wang Shuang was finally allowed to start in the second game. Sure enough, she helped the team score a penalty and narrowly beat Haiti 1-0.
However, in the face of the strong England team, the Chinese team suffered a 1-6 defeat and missed the group qualification.
"We still have a gap between our strength and the world's best teams. After the game, Wang Shuang was interviewed with red eyes, pointing out the problems of domestic training and training mechanisms. Although her words were pertinent, they were publicly "blocked" by a sports media.
"It's very inappropriate for them to do this!" Teammates and fans have defended Wang Shuang, arguing that Chinese football must face up to the existing problems, rather than blocking the players' mouths to maintain stability.
Coincidentally, it was previously reported that the head coach limited Wang Shuang's playing time. What happened to her now seems to confirm that. "We have to protect the rights and interests of athletes and let them play fairly.
Media personalities have appealed.
Wang Shuang was interviewed after the Women's World Cup, pointing out the deep-seated problems of Chinese football, but because of this, she faced a public "ban" from a sports media. This was an immediate and controversial approach.
"Wang Shuang has been the team's MVP for many years, and she has made great contributions to the team. Teammates have stood up to support Wang Shuang. Statistics show that since Wang Shuang was selected for the national team in 2014, she has made more than 120 appearances and scored more than 30 key goals.
"If there was no Wang Shuang, the Chinese women's football team would have fallen to Sun Shan!" The fans also cheered for her.
"The sports media should not restrict athletes' right to speak freely. Professor Ma, a well-known commentator, said that Wang Shuang, as the core of the team, is more qualified to face the problems of Chinese football in terms of training and tactics.
"We need to sincerely listen to her voice, which is an important opportunity to promote the reform of Chinese football.
In fact, in an interview, Wang Shuang had already shed tears of heartache. "I just hope that the next Wang Shuang, the next Chinese women's football team, can play beautiful football and get better results.
She has no complaints, she just wants to contribute to the development of Chinese football.
It is touching that an athlete who has the courage to reflect on problems and is eager to improve is questioned and doubted. "In the face of Wang Shuang, we need more tolerance and encouragement, rather than punishment and banning.
Netizens were upset for her.
This incident sparked a discussion of reform in the football world. Industry insiders believe that Chinese football must further improve the mechanism for protecting the rights and interests of athletes and encourage them to boldly put forward their opinions; It is also necessary to improve the training system and tactical level to be in line with international standards.
"We are looking forward to the new atmosphere of Chinese football, and Wang Shuang will become the star who will always shine in our memory. People say so. Perhaps it is this voice that is the driving force that drives change and leads Chinese football into a new era.
