Mr. Shang Qing, who was the coach of Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic Football Club, regretfully passed away at the age of 54 in the late afternoon of November 1, 2021, due to the deterioration of lung cancer.
Memories of the past, drops like new. Mr. Shang Qing, Shenyang's 1967-bred talent, once wore the national youth, national youth, national second team uniforms. In his brilliant career, Mr. Shang Qing was not only the captain of Shaanxi GuoLi team and helped the team to be ranked in the A League, but also held multiple positions as a coach and assistant coach, etc. In 2018, he joined hands with Zhao Changhong and other coaching teams to help Shaanxi Daqin ZhiShui win countless glories.
