NEW DELHI, Aug 10 (Reuters) - North Korean striker Choe Myong-ho has been banned for six international games and fined by the Asian soccer body for poor behaviour which marred Thursday's AFC Challenge Cup semi-final loss against holders Tajikistan.
Choe, sent off for spitting on Tajikistan's Davrondzhon Tukhtasunov, was also fined $3,000 while team mate Pak Nam-chol, who was also shown the red card, was suspended for one game by the Asian Football Confederation's disciplinary committee.
Tukhtasunov was given a two-match ban and fined for striking Korea's Yun Yong-il on the head while shaking hands after the final whistle, the AFC said on Sunday.
