The Chinese soccer community has turned upside down again. The Chinese Football Association (CFA) has poured out an excellent number of all-time heavy punishments.
According to a report by Chinese media Sohu on the 31st (Korea Standard Time), the Chinese Football Association held a joint press conference with public security and the National Sports Bureau in Beijing on the 29th and officially announced disciplinary measures to resolve match manipulation and gambling problems in the soccer community.
Through a court ruling, the association permanently expelled 73 soccer players involved in corruption such as match fixing, gambling, and bribery, and imposed points cuts on 13 professional teams.
It is completely rotten from the stomach. The list included a number of big names, including Chen Xuyuan, former president of the Chinese Football Association, former party secretary Du Jiao-chai, former men's national team coach Li Tie, and former women's national team coach Hao Wei. Among the players, former national team players were also named.
The disciplinary action against the club has also been confirmed. As of the 2026 season, a total of 13 clubs, including nine clubs in the Chinese Super League (first division) and four clubs in the second division of the Super League (second division), faced points cuts and fines.

In the Super League, Tianjin Jinmanhu and Shanghai Shenhua each received a 10-point reduction and a fine of 1 million yuan (about 200 million won). Qingdao Haiyue (-7 points), Shandong Taishan (-6 points), Henan (-6 points), Wuhan Sanjeon, Zhejiang, Shanghai Haigang, and Beijing Guoan (-5 points) also failed to avoid disciplinary action. The second division, Changchun Yatai and Major U Haka, were also subject to points cuts.
In the aftermath of the announcement, a coach was also dismissed 11 days after taking office. Immediately after the disciplinary action was announced, Changchun Sidhu, the third division of the Chinese league, announced the termination of his contract with Wang Dong, the 45-year-old coach. Coach Wang Dong, who played in 30 A matches during his active career, was included in the permanent expulsion list and resigned only 11 days after taking the helm on the 18th. Chinese media 'Titanzhou Bao' pointed out this as "the shortest coach in the history of the Chinese league."
The Chinese authorities emphasized, "We will maintain a strict stance and root out corruption in the soccer community with the principle of zero tolerance," but local public opinion remains cold.

According to Sohu, Chinese soccer fans were criticized for "who is fined who when the Korea Football Association is the most caught and corrupt place," "What kind of disciplinary action is taken when the association is rotten," and "Why is there no investigation into the referee's decision?"
One netizen said, "It's not even funny. There were also a lot of sarcastic comments, such as, "Why don't you investigate foreign players who spent tens of millions of yuan on small fish and can't even touch their bodies?"
In addition, the association's slogan, "The Chinese Football Association's Zero-Tolerance Punishment," said, "He speaks very well. It's just nice to hear," he mocked.
In September, the Chinese Football Association permanently expelled 43 people in the first round. At that time, the list included Son Joon-ho (currently Asan, Chungnam), who played in Shandong, causing controversy.
