The Random Sport Generator has been at it again and has found us the International Challenge of Blind Football.
The matches are played on a small pitch and all of the players wear eye masks, the commentary is in Portuguese so I am not sure how many on each team are blind and how many are just masked – I will post more when I find out.
In the meantime enjoy – you may recognise some of the South American style commentary, especially when they score.

You can read more about blind football in the UK on the British Blind Sport site and there are sections on many other sports as well.
Webcast Sport is passionate about helping under represented sport get time on air and if there is enough interest we will look to do a selection of blind sport later this year.
