The USC Chinese Soccer Team member, Jinxin Gao, was set to play his final game for the team last night in Columbia, South Carolina. Gao is on the point of completing a job move to Indianapolis, Indiana.
Gao was one of the first players to check in at the soccer field yesterday before the game and he gave a copy of the soccer skill video disk which he made earlier afternoon to Jiayu. Jiayu revealed that LaoGao's leave would be a tragedy for the team since Gao's ability of catching potential goal opportunities is what others do not have. He said: "Hopefully we'll recruit more talended players like Gao at the beginning of next semester, we will definitely miss Gao, our best friend."
Hongtao, attacking middler, engine of the team, pointed out "You may notice that everybody wear a white jersey or T-shirt today because of Gao, white is Gao's preferred one", and he added that "In my first two seasons at USC, we played together quite often, I never thought Gao is leaving us, but it comes true. I understand playing without Gao is gonna be a different challenge in my soccer career as well as in others, I believe, but we have to face it." Hongtao did sent Gao a memorable farewell gift as he assisted Gao's last score in his final game, Gao shined in his farewell game with 5 goals for his side.
"I would like to thank everyone for having this farewell game for me, that was an unforgettable moment in my soccer career." said Gao in an interview with USC Soccer Society.
南卡踢球者联盟消息，昨天（5月20日）下午老高在南卡大学田径场完成了他的告别赛，这是他搬家至印第安纳波利斯工作之前为球队踢的最后一场比赛，大家以告别赛的方式缅怀了对老高的思念，老高也不负众望，在告别赛中连中5元。
而立之年的老高，是最早南卡中国留学生球队的一员，凭借自己在门前把握机会的能力以及稳健的球风，颇受后辈们的尊重，老高的球德已被当成了典范并被当成各届入队新人的教文，老高也被称为影子杀手。
昨日老高早早地就来到了球场等候球友们送他最后一程。老高还专程刻录了一张过人技巧的光碟送给了本联盟通讯记者王佳羽同志，显露出老一辈无产阶级革命家对新人，尤其是技术底子较差的同志的栽培之心。佳羽在他的回忆录中写道：“在球场上，我和老高结下了深厚的战斗友谊，我的每一脚射门都能成为为老高送出的精准传球，而老高的每一脚射门，又能再次为我给他制造传球机会创造条件。这样，我们成了攻击线上不可分离的好搭档。我从未想到技术动作过人处理得慢也能成为球星，而老高给了我希望。”
球队中的中场发动机弘弢昨天显得格外伤心，一边擦眼泪一边擤鼻涕的他在场边接受采访时提到：“你也许已经注意到了，我向来不穿白色球衣踢球的，但今天不光是我，很多人都为老高穿了白，大家都是来送老高的。。。”，据悉，白色是老高贯穿的球衣颜色，今天大家都想在最后的这场
比赛中跟老高并肩作战。弘弢放声大哭了一阵后微笑着补充道：“在过去的几年里，老高一直是我塞直传球的目标，现在老高走了，今后进攻我们的目标在哪里呢？”从弘弢迷茫的眼神中我们可以体会到大家对老高的怀念。而今天正是弘弢的一记助攻，老高完成了他为南卡大学踢球者队的最后一个进球。“我从未想过老高会离开我们，但现在我们必须接受这一现实，老高一路走好！”
老高在赛后接受采访时动情地说：“我要感谢党和人民以及这帮相濡以沫的弟兄长期以来对我的支持，今天也很感谢这么多人来参加我的告别赛，这是我职业生涯中永远忘不了的一刻”。
赛后大家在场边合影留念，纪念这一难忘的时刻。
