North Korea continued their preparations for the World
Cup with a goalless draw against Brazilian Club Atletico Sorocaba in Pyongyang on Thursday.
Around 80,000 fans packed in to the Kim Sung Il Stadium to watch a tightly contested match.
Chances were few and far between and the Brazilians came the closest to breaking the deadlock, forcing a good save from goalkeeper Ri Myung Guk at the end of the first half.
It was the first time that the 1966 World Cup quarter-finalists have played at home since clinching qualification for the South African tournament and the fans turned out in force.
Last month North Korea held a training camp in France and drew with local club Nantes as well as the Republic of Congo.
