Japanese fans told to behave in Shanghai

Japanese football fans in China for the Uruwa Reds Asian club soccer game have been told not to wear club strips or wave the national flag.

The Japanese consulate has asked that fans resist booing during the Asian Champions League game with Shanghai Shenhua.

Japanese officials fear a repetition of the violence which erupted after Japan's victory over China in the 2004 Asian Cup final in Beijing.
