Numerous fans speculated with anticipation and no one seemed to congratulate Shanghai Harbor on their win, however the truth may be very different than you expected.
On October 29, 2023, in the 29th round of the Chinese Super League, Shanghai Seaport drew with Shandong Taishan, and the Shanghai team was thus crowned the champion one round ahead of schedule. After the match, Wu Lei and Oscar embraced each other and cried, a scene that touched countless netizens.
In the joy of winning the championship, "congratulatory airwaves" came one after another, people from all walks of life sent their blessings through the Internet to congratulate Shanghai Harbour Team on winning the Chinese Super League Championship for the second time in its history, and being honored with the second Chinese Super League Championship. It is a great fortune to receive so many congratulations! This fully demonstrates that Shanghai Harbor has friends all over the world.
It is interesting to note that these congratulations are under the theme of "Winning the Championship is like 7". Although the content varies, the common thread is the praise of Shanghai Port's contribution to Chinese soccer. Let's take a peek at some of these congratulations:
The above part of the congratulatory airwaves is well-written and delicate, succinctly summarizing the significance of Shanghai and Genbao base for the Chinese Super League and Chinese soccer teams, and showing the beauty of Shanghai soccer.
This blogger writes brilliantly: it's no exaggeration to say that most of the Chinese national team players (pictured below), from Wu Lei and Lu Wenjun to Cai Huikang and Yan Junling to Zhang Wei and He Jiao, have come from here. It's a great achievement to nurture so many good players.
When Shanghai won the Chinese Super League title for the first time in 2018, the programmer mentioned Shanghai's "faith" in winning the title. The following blogger believes that Shanghai's second title win was due to persistence and the belief of never giving up. The number of retweets and likes shows the popularity of Shanghai's win.
Browsing through the comments section of various blog posts, fans from all walks of life have left their comments, not hesitating to send positive feedback and express their joy for Shanghai Harbour Team. As shown in the screenshot of the comment section above, netizens have applauded Shanghai Harbor.
As you can see, Shanghai Seaport's second win was met with many congratulations from all walks of life! Unfortunately, not all of these congratulations came from domestic and foreign counterparts (soccer clubs), which is a bit disappointing. But on the other hand, it also proves that Shanghai soccer has won the recognition of people from all walks of life.
The Harbor Club has yet to release the congratulatory airwaves from their peers, and I'm sure the number won't be small.
Last year, when Wuhan Sanzhen won the championship, nine congratulatory airwaves from major clubs in China were announced in one breath. At the time, Wuhan Sanzhen had only been playing in the Chinese Super League for a year and were still newcomers to the domestic soccer scene. Shanghai Port, by contrast, have a much longer history, with nearly nine years since their acquisition. Even so, the number of congratulatory messages from their counterparts should be no less than the number of congratulatory messages from Wuhan Sanzhen when they won the title last year, right?
