Mundial 2010

Portugal 7
North Korea 0
Wow!

Even though it sometimes seems this way, there are no truly awful teams on Mundial: there are a few great teams, couple of good teams and a bunch of "less good" teams, but no god-awful teams. Well, any team, even the greatest, has on occasional bad day but the North Korean team had a really frigging dreadful day today when it lost seven to nil to Portugal. High scores are as rare in soccer as hen's teeth, and even rarer on Mundial, so this one truly stands out…

Too bad that the unfortunate North Korean players (and even more so their managers and coaches) as their reward for “exemplary” performance on Mundial may be forced to contribute to the North Korea’s nuclear program and carry radioactive isotopes with their bare hand if the Korean despot-in-chief (pardon me, Exalted Leader) Comrade Kim Jong-Il, flies off the handle.
