Chinese game still kicking, but few are watching

BEIJING, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Dalian Shide were the clear-cut champions of Chinese soccer this year, winning the top domestic cup and thoroughly dominating a season in which China's premier league teetered back from the brink.


Not that many people noticed.

Turn-out was low on Sunday as Dalian captured the China FA Cup with a 1-0 win over Shandong Luneng at the end of a season in which the country's Super League managed to shake off many of its scandals -- and many of its fans with them.

On Monday, one of Beijing's top newspapers gave less space to coverage of the FA Cup final than it did to the departure of Manchester United captain Roy Keane, which was announced on Friday.

The cup was the crowning achievement for perennial powerhouse Dalian, who also took top spot in the league rankings and a place in next year's Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League along with runners-up Shanghai Shenhua.

"I'm not getting over-excited about winning the league title," Dalian's Serbian head coach Vladimir Petrovic Pizon said.

"My goal now is to win the Asian Champions League next year. I think the club and myself are capable of winning it."

After fielding a youthful team on Sunday, Dalian look poised to keep up their winning ways next year and into the future. The fledgling talent is the product of an "excellent youth academy", according to Stewart Park, co-founder of Sinosoc.com, a website devoted to Chinese soccer.

"The influence of Shide Group president Xu Ming is also an important aspect," Park told Reuters in explaining the secret of Dalian's success.
