One of the weirdest games last Tuesday was in Pyongyang. North and South Korea were down to play in the World Cup qualifiers. No one won the match, no goals scored. Of course, no goals, but no profit. He was not the only one who celebrated the goal. And there was no way that the outside audience could celebrate. The media had no access to media from any country other than North Korea. Such is the situation when South Koreans back home say they seem to have returned to war.

Angry over the warmth of a temporary friendship between the two countries, the hostility has cooled again. That's why Vice President of the Federation, Choi Young-il, who became a team mate, said: “The match was like a war.While I was talking to the North Koreans, they were not looking in my eyes, keep away from answering! " The North Korean players were all very aggressive ... a lot of crap.

Although there was no general audience on the field, there were high level officials. Among them, the Swedish ambassador tweeted, joking about the empty grounds, 'There is no fighting in front of children. Oh, there is nobody on the field today. ”There is a lot of tension between the two-team play, but the audience is almost zero. FIFA President Gianni Infantino was also among the visitors. The president did not hide his 'surprise' and 'disappointment' at seeing such a vacant gallery.

No one was allowed to enter the field in foreign media or even shown directly on TV. Korea's central news agency has summarized the match thus, the attack and every attack game ended in equality. South Korea were told not to bring in viewers before the match.But no one knew that local viewers in North Korea would be deprived of such a match. Vice President of the Federation of South Korea said, "We thought about 1,000 people would watch the match but no one came.South Korea has been given a DVD of the full match so that they can broadcast it on TV in the country. But it was not as good as broadcasting on TV.

Such a war should, of course, be accepted. Because of the paper-pen but war is still going on between the two countries. The war in Korea ended in 9, but no peace treaty was ever signed between the two parties. North Korea has not agreed to attend any of South Korea's national anthem or flag at its stadium.
