Before the penultimate round of this year's Regular Season in the Chinese Second League, Suzhou Dongwu had the opportunity to pass the Central League as the first place in the Southern Division, but finally lost to the last Southern District champion Chengdu Xingcheng in the crucial "Battle of Tianwangshan" and could only occupy the second place.
In the third and fourth places in the play-offs, they lost to Taizhou Yuanda on penalties, and then unfortunately lost in the two-legged promotion and relegation play-off match with Liaoning Shenyang Hongyun and failed to qualify for next year's Secondary League One.
Although there are regrets, it is undeniable that this team has performed well throughout the year, of which Tan Fucheng, who scored 15 goals for the team, is only 24 years old, and his vitality complements the club.
"When I was a kid, my cousin played football, and he used to take me with him, and at first he wanted to exercise, but the more he played, the more he liked it, and then he went to training with him every day after school. My parents have always supported me unconditionally, otherwise I would not have been allowed to leave the house alone at such a young age. Tan Fucheng recalled.
Tan Fucheng left home at the age of 11 to go to the Dongda Football School in Tianjin. "The most difficult thing about going to Tianjin is to adapt to the environment, to a strange place, no friends, and I am young, but football is the best companion, and I slowly adapt to that kind of independent life." Tan Fucheng said, "At that time, I was with Fang Wensheng, and our young players from Dongda and TEDA participated in the National Games together after the merger. After the kick, I had a chance to stay in The West, but my visa has never passed, and finally someone asked me if I wanted to go to Shanghai Shenxin, so I chose to go to Shenxin. ”
When he first arrived at Shenxin, like most of the young players who had just arrived, the biggest problem Tan Fucheng encountered was adapting to the new rhythm of the game. For this reason, the most he has done is to observe, see how the old players train, how to play football, think more about their shortcomings, and pay 100% effort in each training session.
Talking about his memorable debut against Jiangsu Suning in the FA Cup match, Tan Fucheng said, "I really didn't think too much about the first time I played, and young players playing is fighting, after all, this is their dream, but also the opportunity to show their usual efforts." In 2017, I scored some goals in the reserve league of the Chinese First Division, and during that time I felt my strong desire to score. ”
In 2018, Tan Fucheng joined Suzhou Dongwu. "After coming here, whether it is the leader of the team management, or the team's coaches, teammates and other staff, everyone gets along very well. So I'm going to stay here this year. ”
The reason for this year's results is that Tan Fucheng believes that it is due to the unity of the whole club, the unity of thought and strong execution. "Every game is fought with all my might, and thanks to everyone at the club, everyone has the belief to never give up. My goal at the beginning of the season was to score 10 goals and now I have done it. ”
For the goals and assists data he handed over this year, Tan Fucheng is still satisfied. However, every time he looks back at the game video, he can still find some problems, "such as handling the ball is a little casual, some opportunities are fleeting, how to play more reasonably and smarter, this is where I want to learn and improve now." ”

Tan Fucheng, who is not very old, said frankly, "I think that no matter what I do, the most important thing is to persist, and without persistence, I will not be able to go now." For Suzhou Dongwu fans, what he wants to say most is gratitude, "Thank you for the fans to support us unconditionally, not to abandon and not to give up, to win together crazy, to lose together." Thank you for their perseverance, we will also learn from their spirit, play every game well, and go further. ”
