North Korea match delayed after wrong flag displayed

South Korean flag is displayed at the screen video before the North Korea - Colombia match.

North Korea women's football team delayed the beginning of the match against Colombia after the South Korean flag was incorrectly displayed on a giant screen before kickoff at Glasgow's Hampden Park stadium.

London Olympic organizers have already apologized and stated that "today ahead of the women's football match at Hampden Park, the South Korean flag was shown on a big screen video package instead of the North Korean flag. Clearly that is a mistake."

"We will apologize to the team and the National Olympic Committee and steps will be taken to ensure this does not happen again."

The match against Colombia was delayed more than an hour and was scheduled to start shortly.
