Career
In his playing career he was predominantly associated with Liaoning, Guangdong Hongyuan, Sichuan Quanxing and a short loan period with German side Kickers Offenbach. Internationally Li represented China within the 1992 and 1996 AFC Asian Cup before he retired and moved into coaching where he received his first head coach position with Chengdu Blades. This would see him as one of the most sought after players within China and big money move to top tier side Guangdong Hongyuan F.C. where he was brought in to help with them with their title push, however while they were close they only finished 4th in the 1995 league season.
Unable to improve upon their performances the following season when they finished a disappointing 7th, Li Bing would be sold to Sichuan Guancheng.
Li Bing would guide Chengdu Blades F.C. to promotion to the Chinese Super League after coming in during the 2007 league season, where he guided them to second in the league in the second tier. While he led Chengdu to relative safety throughout the 2008 league season, he led them to a terrible start in 2009 and resigned only six games into the season.
He also became the caretaking manager of Guangzhou R&F twice.
