London 2012: Olympic Soccer under way

The first games have taken place in the London 2012 Olympics, with women's and men's soccer kicking off on Wednesday and Thursday. The DPR Korea managed to overcome a hiccup when the South Korean flag was placed next to the team on the scoreboard... but this is about games and not gaffes. The DPRK won!
