Brazil aren't very flairmongous under Dunga are they?
It's almost as though their inner beings have been mysteriously swapped with the Germans overnight.
Yes, they will beat the DPRK (I've got the name right now, Mr Kim Jong Hun), but it might be another bore-fest whereby they do the minimum then pack up for the night.

How many of the squad will actually return to their homeland after the tournament?

A few of them live in Japan anyway I think?
There's a fairly decent sized ethnic North Korean community in Japan, and most of the players in question were born there. Jong Tae-Se (their "star" striker) is definitely based in Japan as he was being asked questions about what he thinks when he meets up with the DPRK based players.
I guess the problem with potential defectors is that their families will still be in Korea, and would presumably face repercussions if the players were to do a bunk.

Good point. "come back or your mother dies a death of a thousand knives". Probably would concentrate the mind

There is one bloke (an English guy) who follows the DPRK all over the world, and is frequently their only supporter at away matches.
He's also a Pompey fan. So on the bright side, he's used to corrupt, dictatorial regimes

In fact I just heard his name on the telly, I think ITV might be about to do a feature on him.
Probably weren't allowed to talk to any actual North Koreans.

Hmmm, the Koreans all seem to be singing their anthem.
Sing, or die!

At least one of them was in tears. Not "I'm at the world cup for my country teams." but a "Someone just made a mess out of my bollocks in a vice and threatened to kill me if we don't win" tears.

I'm hoping the Koreans have been secretly grown in a laboratory and today is the day they reveal themselves as the new super power in football.
