BRAZIL-NORTH KOREA PREVIEW

Brazil’s players and their new defense-minded style will be unveiled in the World Cup against a North Korea squad they, and pretty much everyone else, knows very little about.

While five-time champion Brazil has won more titles than any country at football’s biggest showcase, North Korea hasn’t played in the tournament in more than 40 years and its international isolation is about its only advantage before Tuesday’s match at Ellis Park.

Brazil is not taking the Koreans lightly, though.

GAME RECAP

Maicon and Elano scored a goal apiece in the second half and Brazil broke through a solid North Korea defense to win its first 2010 World Cup match 2-1 on a frigid Tuesday night.

Brazil escaped with a hard-fought victory in the Group G match after struggling to get past the defensive setup of the North Koreans, who are making their first World Cup appearance in 44 years and arrived as the tournament’s lowest-ranked team.

Maicon put Brazil ahead after a through ball from midfielder Elano, making a run on the right side and firing into the far corner from a tight angle as North Korea goalkeeper Ri Myong Guk went for the cross.

Elano added to the lead after a well-timed pass from Robinho.

Ji Yun Nam scored for North Korea in the 89th minute in 34-degree temperatures with a wind-chill of 24.
