Chan Yuen-ting became the first female coach to win a top-flight league title with a professional men's team.
Chan Yuen-ting made history Friday after guiding her Eastern side to the Hong Kong Premier League title.
A 2-1 win over South China at the Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground saw Eastern crowned champion of Hong Kong for a fifth time.
In doing so, Chan became the first ever woman to guide a professional men's team to a top-flight championship.
Chan, 27, only took over as coach in December, with Eastern going on to lose just once in 15 games.
