Shandong's Jiao suspended, fined

SHANDONG Luneng sent former captain Jiao Zhe to the reserve team, suspended his salary and fined him 30,000 yuan (US$4,400) for beating up a teammate after a Chinese Super League game last weekend.

The 29-year-old former China international was punished for swearing at and then hitting young substitute defender Zhang Chi in the locker room after a 2-1 victory in Chongqing last weekend. The right back swore at Zhang for his poor performance during the match, and considered Zhang's silence in reply a sign of disrespect. Jiao was stripped of his captain's armband last year for insulting home fans.
