World Cup 2010: four North Korea players fail to show for Brazil match

North Korea was scheduled to hold a press conference Friday in which it would be asked why four of its players did not show up for the team's opening match of the World Cup.

Four players: forward An Chol Hyok, goalkeeper Kim Myong Won, and midfielders Kim Kyong Il and Pak Sung Hyok were listed as officially absent for the 2-1 loss to Brazil on Tuesday.

South Korea's Ilgan Sports newspaper reported on its website that North Korea originally submitted the names of 23 players to world football's governing body FIFA for the Brazil match, but on game day Tuesday, it submitted a different team list with only 19 names.

We're 55th in the table for highest immigrant population as a percentage of total population. Slightly higher than we will be at football soon. Quick question, if we gave the whole North Korean team political asylum, how quickly could we get them into the England team?

I'd give it 10 minutes

It had to be on the cards, Id be surprised if half the team went home

I wouldn't like to be a relation to any of these players back in Korea.
