About
Lee Wai Tong (Chinese: 李惠堂; 16 October 1905 – 4 July 1979) was a Chinese international association football player, head coach, and former Vice President of FIFA. He is often regarded as the greatest Chinese footballer due to his accomplishments in winning several Far Eastern Games titles with the national team as well as captaining the national football squad to their first ever Olympic tournament in 1936, which was held in Berlin. This was also followed by having an extremely successful club career with South China where he won eight league titles with them, helping to establish the club as the most successful team in Hong Kong history at the time. After his retirement, he moved into management where he guided Republic of China to win the 1954 Asian Games.
