Netizens cheer as four Italian nuns play football, watch viral video here

Italy and football are almost synonymous with each other. The country’s love for soccer knows no bounds and a recent video that has gone viral on Twitter proves how much Italians are passionate about this game. A video which was captured in Italy’s capital city, Rome, shows four nuns playing football in a sports compound. The clip seems to have been shot from a balcony or window of a building. In the viral footage, four nuns can be seen enjoying a game of football and playing skillfully throughout. The ladies seem to be divided into two teams and the team on the right scores a goal. Other nuns cheer at the goal and the match continues as the ball is passed on to the players on the left side. In the 14-second clip, one can see all the nuns enthusiastic about the game and one of them actually kicks off her shoe by mistake while trying to hit the football. Her shoe can be seen flying in the air and makes for a rather amusing sight. Take a look at the video here:
