Liu Dianzuo (Chinese: 刘殿座; pinyin: Liú Diànzuò; Mandarin pronunciation: [ljǒʊ tjɛ̂n tswô]; born 26 June 1990) is a Chinese professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Chinese Super League club Chengdu Rongcheng and the China national team.
Club career
Early career
Liu started his football career in 2006 when he was promoted to China League Two side Dalian Yiteng's first team. He became the club's first-choice goalkeeper in the middle of 2006 season. He earned a trial with Chinese Super League side Nanchang Hengyuan in 2010 and signed a five-year contract with the club in January 2011.[1] He made his debut for the club on 4 May 2011 in a 3–1 victory against Beijing BIT in the first round of the 2011 Chinese FA Cup.[2] He then established himself as regular for the club and played 23 matches during the 2011 season, helping the club avoid relegation. He appeared in every minute of the 2012, 2013 and 2014 league season after the club moved to Shanghai.
Guangzhou
On 1 January 2015, Liu transferred to fellow top tier side Guangzhou R&F.[3] He made his debut for the club on 10 February 2015 in a 3–0 victory against Warriors FC in the preliminary round of the 2015 AFC Champions League.[4] He lost his starting position to Cheng Yuelei towards the end of the 2015 season.
On 11 February 2016, Liu transferred to Guangzhou R&F's city rivals Guangzhou FC.[5] He made his debut for the club on 3 May 2016 in a 1-0 win against Sydney FC in the last group match of the 2016 AFC Champions League.[6] Liu played as backup to Zeng Cheng in the 2016 season and made seven league appearances after Zeng's injury in September 2016. After several seasons, he eventually went on to replace Zeng as the club's first choice goalkeeper and win the 2019 Chinese Super League title with the club. At the end of the 2021 league season, his club admitted that they were in financial difficulties and allowed their first choice players to leave the team.[7]
Later career
On 29 April 2022, Liu signed with newly-promoted top tier club Wuhan Three Towns.[8] On 3 June, he debuted in a league match against Hebei, which ended in a 4-0 victory.[9] Afterwards, Liu established himself as a regular footballer within the club that won the 2022 Chinese Super League title.[10]
On 18 February 2025, Liu joined Chinese Super League club Chengdu Rongcheng.[11]
International career
In February 2014, Liu received his first call-up to the Chinese national team in a 2015 AFC Asian Cup qualification match against Iraq. However, he remained on the bench as an unused substitute.[12][13] On 10 December 2019, Liu made his international debut in a 1–2 defeat against Japan at the 2019 EAFF E-1 Football Championship.[14]
On 12 December 2023, Liu was named in China's squad for the 2023 AFC Asian Cup in Qatar.[15][16]
