In this bustling oriental metropolis, Shanghai Harbor Club celebrated a grand 18th birthday celebration.
Tracing back to 18 years ago, on December 25, 2005, Shanghai East Asia Club was quietly born, like the rising sun, carrying infinite hopes and dreams.
In 2006, Shanghai Dongya embarked on the journey to the professional league, in 2007, they picked up the crown of the Chinese B League with a splash of bright gold color, and in 2012, they managed to break into the family of the Chinese Super League with fearless courage.
At the tail end of 2014, a new force, the Shanghai SIPG Group, took the club into its arms and gave it a new lease of life, renaming it Shanghai SIPG.
At the climax of the 2018 season, Shanghai SIPG claimed the first Chinese Super League title in the club's history with a feat one round ahead of schedule, an honor that was as remarkable as a flower blooming in spring.
Time flows to the beginning of 2021, Shanghai SIPG Club is once again renewed and renamed Shanghai Harbor, like waves lapping at the shore, stirring up new hopes.
In the 2023 season, Shanghai Harbour Club made further efforts and successfully lifted the second Chinese Super League trophy in the team's history, which is not only an affirmation of the past glory, but also an expectation of the future glory.
