Woo Kwok-hung, who had played for Banba Seiko for 14 years, won numerous championships and was awarded the Hong Kong Footballer of the Year for 4 consecutive times. In 1986, he announced that he "hung up his boots" and suffered from esophageal cancer in his later years. He finally passed away yesterday. All walks of life expressed their deep condolences for the death of Hu Guoxiong. Zhang Yuan, the former leader of the Seiko team, said that he would contact Hu Guoxiong's family and make arrangements with Huang Chuangshan, the former leader of the Seiko team, for Hu Guoxiong's death. Hu Guoxiong, who had been plagued by esophageal cancer in recent years, was admitted to the Eastern District Hospital for treatment after falling into a coma a few days ago, until his physical condition took a sharp turn for the worse the night before, and he was in a state of dying. He died at 3:45 am yesterday. The hospital staff moved Hu Guoxiong's body to the mortuary in an iron box. Hu Guoxiong's brother and three other family members and Zeng Tak Shing expressed his deep condolences to Zhang Yuan, saying that he had informed Huang Chuangshan of the news of Hu Guoxiong's death, and also revealed that the latter hoped to handle the death of Hu Guoxiong in the name of Seiko, but all arrangements had to be made after understanding the wishes of his family. The Hong Kong Football Association issued a eulogy yesterday, praising Hu Guoxiong's contribution to Hong Kong football. The Secretary for Home Affairs, Tsang Tak Shing, also wrote an article in the Government News Network, saying that Hu Guoxiong was a model in football, and his achievements were unparalleled, and he extended his deep condolences to his relatives and friends. A number of local football experts also expressed their sadness at the death of Hu Guoxiong. Huang Yaoxin, who was a Seiko teammate with Hu Guoxiong in the 1980s, said that he felt weak when he met him a few months ago, and he also praised him for his star style, and his name as a football king is even more deserved. Another former Seiko teammate, Chen Hongping, missed Hu Guoxiong's playing style, saying that he was the midfield soul of Seiko and the Hong Kong football team, and even the foreign players of the year praised his skills. Nicknamed "Big Head Boy", Hu Guoxiong had superb football skills. He was born in the Bu Gong youth team. He joined Dongluo in 1968 and started his playing career. In 1972, he was transferred to Ma Seiko from Nanhua and embarked on the road of football king. During his 14 years with Seiko, he won more than 40 championships, which helped the team achieve seven consecutive league titles. He also won four Hong Kong Footballers of the Year from 1979 to 1982, which is still unprecedented and has not come since. Other important awards include the Jubilee Footballer of the Year, the Top Ten Football Stars of the Century, and the Golden Boot Award, etc., making it a hit in Hong Kong's football industry. Hu Guoxiong, who can pass the ball and shoot well, is also the soul of the Hong Kong team. As early as the age of 19, he played in the Asian Youth Cup for the Hong Kong Youth Army. After becoming a big Hong Kong player, he helped the Hong Kong team make a historic entry into the top 5 of the World Cup Asian Region in 1977. In 1985, the "519 Battle" helped the Hong Kong team defeat the Chinese mainland 2:1 and became an important contributor to the team's second World Cup qualifying group stage. The battle is also called the most brilliant battle in the history of the Hong Kong team. In 1986, Huang Chuangshan held a farewell match for the announced retirement of Hu Guoxiong. 28,000 spectators sat in the government stadium at that time and applauded the king of the generation. After retiring, Hu Guoxiong opened a sporting goods company, bar and other businesses. In recent years, he has rarely appeared in public events due to his physical illness. A generation of football superstars also regretted their death yesterday and will remain in the hearts of fans. Hong Kong's "generation king" Hu Guoxiong was born at a bad time and failed to make a name for himself in the world. Hu Guoxiong has both football skills and ball products. He is the undisputed king in the eyes of local sports media workers in the past. Some senior reporters describe "big head" Hu Guoxiong's football skills as comparable to that of Cha Fan Gen, who is known as the best player in the history of Asian football, but he failed to make a name for himself in the world under "birth at a bad time". Lin Yunyue, who used to work for Jingbao and interviewed the "519 battle", described Hu Guoxiong as "serious and good waves", "giving his all on the court", and more importantly, his achievements "are not based on genius". She said: "He (Hu Guoxiong) is born with a certain ability, but more importantly, he works hard after tomorrow. Although his physical condition is good, as far as I know, he has been very diligent when he was a child." Lin Yunyue continued that the game performance that impressed the "big head boy" the most was the opponent's ability to cross several levels by midfield dribbling, and then kick and accurately transmit assists to his teammates. "Big Head Boy" was born at the wrong time and failed to win a place in Asian or even international football. She said: "In the past, information did not circulate, and there was no outflow in the football world. If he was born in this generation, Hu Guoxiong would be more famous." Huang Qian, a former editor-in-chief of football, also said that "Big Head Boy" is the undisputed king of the game. The style of the game is very similar to that of Liu Zhilin, a Hong Kong player in the 1960s. He is skilled in passing, disc and shooting. As for Lai Wenhui, the author of "Hong Kong's Top Ten Generals" and who has interviewed Hu Guoxiong, he said that Hu Guoxiong feels arrogant, but when Bu Guild Qing talked to the other party, he found that the king of football was kind, and the other party also denied that he had been absent from training due to drunkenness. He also revealed that his choice to switch from Dongyuan to Nanhua was decided by lottery.
