Flag row threat to Olympic game
North Korean coaches The North Korea coaching staff are thought to have ordered their players from the field
The North Korean women's football team have walked off the pitch at Hampden Park in Glasgow in a row over flags.
The action was apparently in protest at the South Korean flag being mistakenly displayed beside players' names on a screen prior to their Olympic football match.
Kick-off had been scheduled for 19:45. It was later re-scheduled for 21:00.
North Korea are playing Colombia in the second of the opening matches being held at the ground.
Olympics organisers in London have apologised to North Korean officials for the mistake.
