15 mins in, 0 0 !

Rumours say the live is not being shown in NK, unless they win. NK coach insists that's a lie and will be shown anyway.

[Draggy]

Mmm, just heard the commentators say that. Doesn't surprise me if that is the case though

[Mugekuge]

Good game, glad NK is attacking.

[Titanss]

dude just did the kick from Karate kid

[Jefe]

Historic stuff: NK won and eliminated Italy 40 years ago. The player who scored was a dentist. The players who participated are high ranking officials for the government.

[Devolver]

PRK = Peoples Republic of Korea or something?

[Mugekuge]

More historic stuff from wiki:

"
1966 World Cup

Korea DPR's most notable result in international play came in the 1966 World Cup at Middlesbrough F.C. home Ayresome Park, when the team caused a shock upset, beating Italy 1-0 to gain a spot in the quarter-finals. There, they lost 5-3 to Portugal despite taking a 3-0 lead after thirty minutes. The Korea DPR team was the first Asian team to progress beyond the first round of the World Cup finals. "

[sruon]

They got jailed though.

[The Stig]

Ya but that's 44 years ago =p ... i hate history



By the way I can imagine NK will announce that NK has won the World Cup, despite the results, lol.

[Jefe]

Surprisingly, Kaka is playing like caca.

[GRT]

despite the obvious bias in this thread, the game is surprisingly even

NK is showing as good bait trapping as i've seen since tourny start... but their goalie needs to have a clue how to goal kick

[The Stig]

Whoa shit. BLOOD

[Mugekuge]

I like the number 9 from Korea, also Brasil needs a good midfielder.

[wagon]

Is it me or most seeded teams are playing too softly? Brazil, Portugal, etc

[Xaereth]

Holy hell, this is really exciting. I'm really surprised.

[Mugekuge]

lol! Jong Tae-Se number 9 who has an air to Rooney , is born in Japan from South Korean family but he chose to discard his South Korean citizenship to take up a North Korean citizenship xD.

[The Stig]

NK real pro at defending... !

[Iku]

NK is playing real defensive. 2-3-5. BR forward got outnumbered 2 to 1. lol I dont think they are trying to win, but they are trying to tie the game.

[Xaereth]

NK have had a couple of nice breakthroughs though, it's still kinda up in the air.
