Yang Li (simplified Chinese: 杨丽; traditional Chinese: 楊麗; pinyin: Yáng Lì; born 26 February 1993) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Jiangsu in the Chinese Women's Super League. Her impressive form has subsequently drawn comparisons of her to revered Chinese striker Sun Wen.[1]

She scored twice on her debut on 13 October 2014 in a 3–1 win against Mexico during the tournament.
