Côte d'Ivoire boss Sven-Goran Eriksson has warned people not to write off Group G rivals Korea DPR. Kim Jong Hun's side are currently bottom of the group after Tuesday's 2-1 defeat by Brazil at Ellis Park in Johannesburg, although they made life uncomfortable for the five-time FIFA World Cup™ winners for long periods.
Portugal coach Carlos Queiroz had forecast both before and after his side's opening 0-0 draw with Les Elephants earlier the same day that those two sides would battle it out with Brazil for the two qualification spots.
However, while Eriksson admits the North Koreans are the group's outsiders, he insists their chances cannot be dismissed as they prepare for Monday's clash with the Portuguese in Cape Town.
