According to the South Korean newspaper Ilgan Sport four of the North Korean players were not present on the stadium during the Brazil-game.
There are some rumours flying around that they have "escaped".
The North Korean team will hold a press conference later today (15:00 GMT) and it is expected that they will bring forth some information about the case.
They are well, safe, and still in the DPRK's concentration. It's amazing the amount of bs North Korea produces.

First of all, that ranks among the most sane and toned down front pages in the history of the New York Post. Secondly, if we beat Algeria in 95% of scenario's we advance and in the last 5% we tie with at least Slovenia (and maybe England depending on the result later on) on both points and GD, and I'm not sure what happens there. However, we are most likely going through.
Of course, we should have won 3-2 anyway...
EDIT: to make my point about the NY post, this is what comes up when you GIS "New York Post front page" https://www.google.com/images?client=s...CEEQsAQwAw

Speaking of Yankees today, that should be the right front page :

It was a dive by Altidore anyway.
So, that means referees would have to disallow every goal scored on set pieces just because a player dived in the area. That'd mean a lot of goals disallowed.
Well, I mean, you can dive in the area if you want, that's not a problem as long as it doesn't influence the play.
This referee made me crazy.
But at least, USA has shown us French what is really a football team with a fighting spirit. I'm really becoming fond of this USA team.

USA won't have an easy game against Algeria.

Algeria isn't that bad. Well, okay, they aren't exactly superstars, but they have a quite organized defence, and are pretty good on set-pieces. The USA should win, but they should have won Slovenia too. |

Maybe did I exagerate a bit, but they still lack something and should calm their nerves. It'll be a less harder match for USA, but only if they learn soccer isn't reaction, but action.

No, it doesn't mean that at all. My point was that if the goal had gone in, it would have been injust for Slovenia, because Altidore dived to get the freekick as far as I could see, so you can look it both ways. Both decisions were wrong, so you shouldn't ingore one when they're inextricably linked. The referee certainly was very poor for this match.
EDIT: Well, dive perhaps isn't the word I meant, rather it wasn't a freekick in my opinion.

OK, now I understand. You just meant there wasn't a freekick, so it was justice the goal was disallowed.
Well, I didn't see the whole replay, so I can't recall if there was a dive, and I don't remember it

I was thinking the same as both Schleck and Deadpool, but didn't really think that it was worth a response.
Algeria? They haven't managed to beat an European team for the last 10 years. |

Yeah, that was what I meant. Probably I didn't explain myself well 
Anyway, England's first half performance has pathetic. Atrocious. What's happened to those great qualifying performances? This is really quite embarassing.

no it wasn't a joke.
it's a well known fact that the muslim community of the world has a dislike for america. they're probably not to fond of England either but if they had a choice they would prefer to beat america.
their fans will expect a good result against them and so Algeria will see that game as must win. even more so then the other 2.
