Intruder disrupts Japan soccer match in China

ZIBO, China - A man believed to be Chinese is subdued by security guards after he snatched a Japanese flag and ran onto a soccer pitch prior to an under-19 match between Japan and the United Arab Emirates in Zibo, Shandong Province, on Oct. 4, 2010. The man, who came from the stands, took the action at a time when anti-Japanese sentiment has spread in China amid a heightened territorial row over sovereignty of the Senkaku Islands, called the Diaoyu Islands in China, in the East China Sea.
