Residents in a small Colombian town of Nobsa on Sunday staged a football match played entirely by sheep dressed in Colombia and Brazil kits.
Wearing jerseys, shorts and matching shoes, two teams of sheep were herded onto a field to go head to head to see who could score the most goals.
Even though the four-legged players were seemingly more interested in eating grass than playing football, the Colombian team won the match 4-3.
The match was part of the International Poncho Day, celebrated every year in this region of central Colombia where local artisans make sheep wool ponchos using ancestral techniques.
