New manager Fabio Capello told players to cool it after scuffles marred Jiangsu Suning's 0-0 draw with Beijing Guoan, in just the latest outbreak of violence in the Chinese Super League. Capello, who picked up his first league point with struggling Jiangsu, watched as players came to blows at the end of Monday's game -- days after heavy punishments were handed out for a similar incident. Shanghai SIPG's Brazilian international Oscar was hit with an eight-game ban last week for sparking a mass brawl, and the Chinese Football Association may consider more punishments following the latest disorder.

By Christian Shepherd BEIJING (Reuters) - Nobel Peace Prize-winning activist Liu Xiaobo's liver cancer can not be treated with surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy, Liu's wife said, as questions increased among his supporters over his treatment by the Chinese authorities.

By Tim Kelly TOKYO (Reuters) - A U.S. warship struck by a container vessel in Japanese waters failed to respond to warning signals or take evasive action before a collision that killed seven of its crew, according to a report of the incident by the Philippine cargo ship's captain. Multiple U.S. and Japanese investigations are under way into how the guided missile destroyer USS Fitzgerald and the much larger ACX Crystal container ship collided in clear weather south of Tokyo Bay in the early hours of June 17.
