c# parse xml array with attribute

I'm trying to parse an xml array, that has an attribute in a weird place.

Here is my(found somewhere on stackowerflow) parser code:

public static string Serialize (object objectToSerialize)
{
    MemoryStream mem = new MemoryStream ();          
    XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer (objectToSerialize.GetType ());         
    ser.Serialize (mem, objectToSerialize);     
    UTF8Encoding utf = new UTF8Encoding ();
    return utf.GetString (mem.ToArray ());
}

public static T Deserialize<T> (string xmlString)
{
    byte[] bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes (xmlString);
    MemoryStream mem = new MemoryStream (bytes);         
    XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer (typeof(T));
    return (T)ser.Deserialize (mem);
}

This works well in all cases(that I need), except here:

<hr>
    <type n="easy">
        <scores>
            <country name="USA">
                <score nickname="steve" rank="1">1982</score>
                <score nickname="bill" rank="2">1978</score>
...

This is my template class:

public class CountryList
{
    public CountryList ()
    {
    }

    [XmlArray("country")]
    [XmlArrayItem("score")]
    public ScoreAndRank[]
        country;

    [XmlAttribute("name")]
    public string
        name;
    }
}

The score array is parsed correctly, but "name" is always null. I can even get the value of n out, (as [XmlAttribute("n")]). Any tips how to solve this?
