In one of the more bizarre moves in Olympic history, the North Korean women’s soccer team took the field 40 minutes late Wednesday night in Glasgow due to what officials are calling “an issue behind the scenes.”

An official said that the North Koreans objected to the placement of the South Korean flag directly in front of the tunnel entrance to the field and an apparent mistake that placed the South Korean flag on the scoreboard before the game.

The match between North Korea and Colombia was supposed to start at 7:45 p.m. local time. A security worker said officials at Hampden Park said the North Koreans grew angry because the South Korean flag flashed on the stadium’s scoreboard. As game time approached, Colombia lined up in the tunnel and began to do its pre-game chants. But the North Koreans never came out of their locker room.

They finally took the field at 8:25 p.m., 40 minutes after the game was scheduled to start.

Threadstarter, that mess is real over there.

That's like the Crips coming out in Bloods' colors. You don't mess with the N. Korea/ S. Korea flag mess. Someone is lucky they didnt die over that.

I don't think it was a wrong flag, the flags are just put around the stadium and they didn't want to see the S korea one.
