    I saw this niche documentary (if it even was that) on the DPRK years ago and in it the maker visited a football school at one point. As in, a legit school for football. Not sure how good the facilities are these days or if China doesn't have the same, but that could explain it. More investment is more result.

    Dutch media, however, is saying they are good because the regime sees this as a perfect propaganda opportunity.

    Which would not explain why the men's team is shit and the women's team isn't. Because having a men's team competing would arguably be better propaganda. Can't be better facilities in a country that sees women as equal.
