By It sucks for the players to lose this bad, but I have no problem seeing the Portuguese running up the score against a team that represents the horrid Kim Jong-il regime.
I have to wonder if the fact 4 players had supposedly defected and then returned to practice had anything to do with this abysmal performance? Then again maybe this is just what happens when the 105th ranked team in the world plays the 3rd ranked team?

Teams run up scores to have the highest possible goal count, which can matter in the first round.

Part of me wanted to see them get beat bad, but the other part wanted the average person to have something to be happy about.

#8,
What makes you think they weren't happy? The average North Korean secretly hates Kim Jong il.
