Offending China by daring to step on a cup. Losing a trophy and potentially banned from entertaining the tournament again for putting your foot on the cup? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48461639 I know its China who are very strict and demand certain levels of discipline but am I missing something here.. Good job they didn't start drinking out of it or throwing the cup around like players do here!!
Yep, basically, especially as it was Korea, had it been a completely random country that China doesn't care about, they wouldn't have been bothered. China aren't exactly best pals with Korea and have a huge inferiority complex with them when it comes to football (only beaten them twice ever, and those were fairly recent)
