When two members of the Axis of Evil get together for a soccer game, you can be sure there will be fireworks – literally.
The match came to an end in the 60th minute when the North Koreans left the pitch after an Iranian fan threw a firecracker onto the pitch which struck one of the North Korean players.
The Iranian response was a denial of the existence of the firecracker, and, even if it did exist, it was only meant “for peaceful purposes.”
