For Olympics football matches the stall has scarves with the colours of both competing nations. Many spectators are neutral, having booked tickets months ago before knowing which teams would be playing. The match on this day is South Korea versus Gabon - one of those standing in front of the stall has draped over his shoulders a South Korean flag, in the centre a circle with red and blue sections - a Taegeuk.
