The national anthems were notable as “The People’s Rooney,” Jong Tae Se, was in floods of tears. Brazil dominated the early stages against mystery side North Korea, Elano tried with an effort from distance that failed to trouble the keeper. Ten minutes after the break, after Brazil had clearly upped their game, Elano released Maicon and the Inter Milan right back slammed a shot in at the near post from an impossible angle past a stunned Myong-Guk Ri. On 72 minutes Brazil doubled their lead with Elano turning from provider to goal scorer thanks to a fine slide-rule finish after a great through ball from Robinho. With a minute remaining the plucky North Koreans pulled a goal back, Yun-Nam Ji drove into the box and beat Julio Cesar down the middle.
