As if the astonishing exploits of the athletes weren't enough at the Paralympics, we have blind football.



There's a sound emitted from the ball to indicate to the players where it is and one guide off the pitch, to direct the players. The keeper is sighted. Just mind boggling. The video isnt from the London Games but it does show how brilliant it is to watch

Did you see the one legged high jumper ?

Or the swimmer with just half an arm ?

Truly amazing performances.

The FA's full of blind refs so why not blind players?
