PART 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biJmswTyGK0

A rare documentary about the 1966 World Cup North Korea team that exceeded expectations. Director Daniel Gordon enters the intriguing nation, meets the remaining squad players and coach, and brings them back to Middlesbrough where the locals gave them great support all those years ago. Even if you are not a fan of football, this is a fascinating programme about a fascinating country and its heroes.

  • lovely

  • @shakysyxx They did work really really hard...kinda felt bad they lost really big to Portugal.....I bed Kim Jung Il was pissed lol!

  • @Tycones5544 You couldn't be further from the truth. It would have been nice if our team was half as good as the North Koreans were in 1966 but that's a small sacrifice given the freedoms we have today, as we have always had, liberties most Aussies take for granted.

  • @danbhtfc

  • The stadium survived the war and is still used, and Sihanouk is still alive he ended up abdicating.
