North Korea's state controlled media appears to be telling fans that their football team has reached the World Cup Final in Brazil.

The report claims that a brave North Korean side thrashed bitter rivals Japan 7-0, before pummelling USA 4-0 and edging past neighbours China 2-0...

I really do feel for the ordinary people of North Korea.

[Triggaaar]

Nah

I really do feel for the ordinary people of North Korea.

Why? They are in the final of the World Cup! Ignorance is bliss!

 

[DNB_Seagull]

I almost wish we did this...

Yeah sod the shocking human rights abuse, at least they're going to win a match they can't even watch!

 

[carlzeiss]

I wonder who they will beat in the Final ?

Portugal, according to the article. Surely South Korea would have been more apt?

Brazil are so poor at present. Surely the North Korean public would hardly bat an eyelid when they beat them?

Open top bus parade round Pyongyang, blow up trophy and everybody's happy. Where's the harm?

 

[Seagull on the wing]

They've got more chance than England anyway.

The Daily Mail has got so much to learn, this is how it is done properly

 

[BrianWade4]

Would beat Brasil.

Does anyone seriously believe this report? Just another piece of North Korea bashing propaganda isn't it? Most likely source is a South Korean comedy show spoof it seems.

 

[glasfryn]

clackers all round then
wonder if PB has any left

Portugal, according to the article. Surely South Korea would have been more apt?

There's a good reason why South Korea aren't in the report

Do some research and you'll see it's just more bullshit, like the business about the dogs being set on the uncle.

 

[Elvis]

Good news! I have them in the sweepstake.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Player ratings?

This is so obviously not what the North Koreans are reporting. It is the sort of thing that gives credence to those that say that North Korea is 'alright, actually', because they can point to it and say that everything negative that is reported about NK is propaganda and lies.
