AFC charges Chinese club Guangzhou over political banner
Online Edition
CHINESE giants Guangzhou Evergrande will be disciplined after a political banner was unfurled by fans during a game in Hong Kong, Asia's football governing body said Thursday.
The banner was held up during Evergrande's 6-0 AFC Champions League win over Hong Kong's Eastern on Tuesday.
The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) said Guangzhou Evergrande have been charged "under Article 58 for discrimination and Article 65 relating to spectator misconduct."
The body did not say when the punishment will be meted out.
Article 58 of the AFC's ethics code says clubs will be forced to play at least two games behind closed doors over any offensive "words or actions" by their fans concerning political opinions or national origin.
Individual spectators will be banned from stadiums for a minimum of two years for the offence, the code says.
