DPRK

The loss of the DPRK national team at the World Cup in South Africa was the reason for the arrest of the head coach of the national team. By order of the authorities, Kim Jong-hun was sent to a concentration camp, where he is forced to engage in heavy physical labor for 14 hours a day. The North Korean leader considered that Kim Jong-hun committed a crime, which resulted in the defeat of the Portuguese national team with a score of 0: 7. Kim Jong-hun admitted that it was his personal mistake, and thus saved the lives of players who wanted to shoot.

After the World Cup in 1966, when the North Korean team reached the quarter-finals, all the players were sent to the camps except for one striker.

PRC

In 2013, the Chinese national football team lost to Thailand with a score of 1: 5. The fans, who already felt humiliated, blocked the bus with the players and poured them insults for a long time. When the bus still broke through on the road, riots began. All this happened on the birthday of the General Secretary of the Communist Party and Chairman of the People's Republic of China Xi Jinping, he was 60 years old. The holiday was hopelessly spoiled, but the head of state was finally convinced that it was time to clean up the football.

Soon, two former president of the Chinese Football Federation and former captain of the team went to prison for 10 and a half years. Another four players of the national team received up to 6 years of imprisonment and heavy fines. Arbitrator Liu Yunu, who twice admitted to the best in Asia and worked at the World Cup 2002, did not at all face the death penalty.

Nigeria

President of Nigeria Goodluck Jonathan after the failure of his team at the World Cup in South Africa started a serious reorganization of football in the country. He forbade the national team to compete in the next 2 years. The Nigerians took the last place in the tournament, lost to Argentina (0: 1), Greece (1: 2) and tied with South Korea (2: 2). Also, the executive committee of the federation apologized to the fans and the government of the country for failure at the mundiale.

El Salvador and Honduras

The payment for the lost match of the national team of Honduras to its eternal and principled rival - the national team of El Salvador - was a real war. During the month, the football teams of the two countries were to hold two matches for entering the final part of the 1970 World Cup. In Salvador and Honduras, the matches were accompanied by mass riots with human casualties. Emotions heated up to the limit, in the press of both countries rose real hysteria.

On June 24, 1969, El Salvador began mobilizing the armed forces. Despite the transience (the war lasted only six days), the conflict was costly for both sides; the total losses amounted to several thousand people.

the USSR

The match of the USSR - Yugoslavia at the 1952 Olympics was for Joseph Stalin: the leader wanted to teach a lesson to the outgoing leader of the Union country, Josip Broz Tito. The match ended in a draw with a score of 5: 5, a second game was staged in the city of Tampere. This game the Soviet athletes lost with a score of 1: 3. When the players returned home, they were waited by two resolutions from the Kremlin: the first was about disbanding the CDSA team (this team was the main backbone of the team), and the second was about depriving some players and coach Boris Arkadiev of the title of honored masters of sports.
