Speaking of the "85 Golden Generation" in Chinese football, fans familiar with Chinese football must be very familiar with it. Names like Feng Xiaoting, Gao Lin, and Zhao Xuri must be familiar to everyone. However, there is another name that impresses Chinese fans, that is, Tan Wangsong.
In 1985, Tan Wangsong was born in Chengdu, Sichuan. Unlike other players, Tan Wangsong's family environment is very bookish. His father was a government civil servant and his mother was a professor at Chengdu University of Technology. Officially because of this, Tan Wangsong received a better quality education earlier than ordinary people, which made him learn many aspects of things from an early age. In addition to football, calligraphy, dance, table tennis and swimming are his strengths, even if he learns a lot of things, but Tan Wangsong is a very strong learning ability of children.
In 1998, Tan Wangsong chose to become a football player despite the persuasion of his family. Tan Wangsong, who was successfully selected for the Sichuan Quanxing Echelon, was also successfully selected for the Chinese National Youth Team. Subsequently, in 2011, he was also successfully selected for the Champions City first team and successfully played in the Chinese Super League. As a result, he was also given the opportunity to compete in the 2005 World Youth Championships in the Netherlands.
At that World Youth Championship, people remembered the "Zhao Yi foot" Zhao Xuri's heavenly flying immortals in the stoppage time stage to kill Turkey, but also remembered Gao Lin and Arthur Junmin when they played against Panama, the head kick to win the opponent and finally successfully qualified, and the defensive core Feng Xiaoting staged a good play of 1-5 to amaze the world. However, Tan Wangsong's performance was also very good at the time, and at the World Youth Championship, as the main candidate for the right-back of the Chinese team, he also scored the first goal of the Chinese team in the tournament.
However, before everyone knew Tan Wangsong, there was one more thing that very few people knew. In 2004, Tan Wangsong and Zhao Xuri, who were training at the Pujiang base together, were joking, but when the two were talking and laughing, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and the two slowly evolved into a quarrel. During this period, Zhao Xuri, who was even stronger, moved his hands even more, and the two pushed and shoved each other. After being pushed and shoved by Zhao Xuri, Tan Wangsong was not convinced, so he immediately ran to the kitchen to take out a kitchen knife and rushed to Zhao Xuri's side, Zhao Xuri chose to escape when he saw it, but Tan Wangsong was still chasing after it.
The coach and a group of teammates were frightened to see this situation, so they stepped forward to pull the two apart, and finally calmed down the storm. Then Zhao Xuri and Tan Wangsong shook hands and made peace under the instructions of the team leader, so that the contradiction between the two was calmed down, and no bigger things appeared.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games held on his doorstep, Tan Wangsong's name was once again familiar to people. In the men's football group match between the Chinese team and the Belgium team, when the game was in the 52nd minute, the Belgian midfielder was organizing the attack through the backward foot pass, but Tan Wangsong staged the real drama of "breaking the leg of the child" with an extremely ugly defensive flying kicking action at this time, even if he quickly apologized to the opponent, but it was too late, the referee on duty immediately showed a red card to send him off, which also laid the groundwork for the defeat of the Chinese team, and since then Tan Wangsong has no chance with the national team.
