Joke of the day: Russia women's national football team loses to North Korea in a crushing defeat
The Russian women's national football team lost to their North Korean rivals in a friendly match without a chance. The representatives of the aggressor country, who are suspended from international competitions, were unable to counteract the Asians at home, losing with a crushing score of 0:3.
The score was opened in the 30th minute. Hong Song-ok scored an accurate shot after a solo pass. A few minutes later, Han Jin-hong entered the Russian penalty area and scored beautifully under the crossbar. The Koreans scored the third goal at the end of the match after a quick counterattack.
