Brazil 2 - 1 North Korea

Even the Brazilians couldn’t liven things up that much. Admittedly it was not helped by Korea playing a flat back five, but there you go. Maicon with a did he / didn’t he mean it strike and Elano with a second, latching on to a sumptuous Robinho pass!

Late Korean goal sent no one into raptors! Allegedly North Koreans were not allowed to watch it!
