DPR Korea raring to go
31st December 2018
Abu Dhabi: DPR Korea are the latest team to have arrived for the AFC Asian Cup UAE 2019, with Kim Yong-jun's squad touching down in Dubai on Monday.
DPR Korea are paired with Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Lebanon in Group E and will be looking to leave their mark in the AFC Asian Cup UAE 2019, after exiting the group stage in 2015.
Chollima's best performance in the Continental showpiece came in 1980 where they finished fourth and Yong-jun's charges are raring to go.
DPR Korea missed their chance to qualify for the 2019 EAFF E-1 Championship, losing out to Hong Kong in the Second Preliminary Round in November.
In the run-up to UAE 2019, DPR Korea drew 1-1 with Vietnam and fell 4-0 to Qatar.
