Gao Fengwen (Chinese: 高丰文; 23 November 1939 – 27 October 2020) was a Chinese football coach and an international football player.

Playing career

Gao Fengwen was born in

Liaoning FC before being called up to the Chinese national team in 1965 where he was honoured with being the team's captain.[1] The Chinese Cultural Revolution
saw his career severely shortened and he was unable to play in any major international tournaments. He did, however, play in several small tournaments and was able to represent his country on several occasions before he retired.

Management career

After he retired Gao Fengwen went to

Korea Republic in extra time.[3] Gao would also narrowly miss out in leading China to qualify for the 1990 FIFA World Cup after losing to Qatar in the final game in the dying minutes of the game and elimination from the qualifiers. Despite this, Gao kept his job and he led China in the Football at the 1990 Asian Games; however, this tournament turned out to be a disaster after they lost to Thailand
and were eliminated, which led Gao to resign. Leaving management behind, he started his own football school in 1996.
