Biography

Gao Feng started his football career playing for the Beijing Football Team until the 1994 league season saw full professionism within the league and the club renamed themselves Beijing Guoan.[2] Throughout his time at Beijing, Gao showed a highly efficient goal scoring ability with excellent stamina, which saw him as their first choice striker when they won the 1996 Chinese FA Cup.[3] His goal-scoring ability soon saw him be included in the Chinese national team and he was called up to the team that went to the 1996 AFC Asian Cup, where China were knocked out in the quarter-finals against Saudi Arabia on December 16, 1996 in a 4-3 defeat.[4] By the 1997 league season he transferred to top tier side Qianwei Huandao and was part of the team that gained mid-table mediocrity. By the 1999 league season he was also part of the team that decided to move to Chongqing and renamed themselves Chongqing Longxin before transferring to Shenyang Haishi and then Tianjin Teda, where he retired.

Gao Feng took part in the Chinese version of Dancing with the Stars in 2014. On March 9, 2015, Gao Feng was arrested after an assault on a taxi driver.[5]
