Xu Liang (Chinese: 徐亮; pinyin: Xú Liàng; born 12 August 1981 in Shenyang) is a former Chinese footballer who predominantly played for Liaoning FC in the Chinese Super League.

Club career

Xu Liang started his football career with Liaoning Youth in 2001 and eventually graduated to Liaoning FC's first team in the 2002 league season where he made 23 appearances in his debut season.[1] After establishing himself into the first team, he would be an integral member that saw Liaoning reach the final of the Chinese FA Cup in 2002. However, after five seasons with Liaoning, he would transfer to the second tier team Guangzhou Pharmaceutical and see them fight for promotion to the Chinese Super League in 2007. On 12 February 2010, he was signed by Beijing Guoan after Guangzhou was relegated due to a match-fixing scandal.[2] On 4 August 2012, Xu scored from a distance of 62 meters in a league match against Dalian Shide, which is the longest goal scored in Chinese top tier history.

Xu transferred to fellow Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua on 11 December 2012.[3] After an injury plagued period with Shanghai, Xu decided to retire from football at the end of the 2014 season.
