For some reason, I'm having flashbacks of the Craggy Island vs Rugged Island All Priests Five-a-side Over 75's Indoor Football Challenge match after watching this.
A few years ago, a player was banned for the entire Clericus Cup because of BLASPHEMY! Italian football has a rule that hands out a 1 or 2-match ban for players caught uttering blasphemous expressions (even with later video review as acceptable evidence), but you'd never expect someone who plays (and works) in Vatican City to start calling God, Jesus and the Virgin Mary some awful names due to a bad ref call. I guess the Roman fiery character trumps the Vatican spiritual side.
I'm surprised EWTN and Vatican Radio don't broadcast the games, since EWTN is the largest Catholic broadcasting company in the world and a cornerstone of American Catholic culture and Vatican Radio is available to any Catholic to listen to. I bet the immigrant Catholic communities in the US and Canada would love it if it was broadcast on EWTN, their only source on the goings on in the Catholic world.
The Blue Card is similar to ice hockey, where a player sits out for 2 minutes for minor penalties and 5 minutes for major penalties. During this time the offender's team plays short handed. After the penalty time expires (or a goal is scored against the offender's team) the player rejoins the team on the ice.
Need to have a look at the Finnish one, just got into it this year and it all changed as they added a new "2nd Division" and the playoffs in the lower leagues are weird. Could win your league and not go up
The blue card is not unique to this league it is also used and has been for almost 40 years in the MASL wich is an indoor soccer league in the USA that plays in hockey arenas❤
Vatican City did not invent the blue card. The blue card was introduced in the Major Indoor Soccer League in 1978, to indicate a two minute penalty, one of many things the US arena/indoor soccer game borrows from hockey.
The robot voice is hilarious 🤣 maybe run a story on the English island of Scilly, I apologize if I have the name wrong,as I understand the situation,there are only 2 teams in the league

Far more interesting than I would have ever imagined.
I love learning about how different parts of the world see the beautiful game.
Me too! Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more.
I'd love to get my hands on a Vatican national team kit!

The sin bin is a phrase from rugby which does a similar thing with yellow cards.
Lets hit 1,000 before the end of the month!
Let’s make it happen! Thanks for the support.
Yes Kevin
Interesting.
Please do El Salvador 🇸🇻

Suggestion: any of the 4 UK Home Nations (that’s England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland)
Perhaps the biggest league/biggest pyramid- England- should be the 1000 subscriber special.
They’re all on my list! Which one should I do first?
@@FootyLeaguesAroundtheWorld I like Greg’s idea. England for the 1K Sub Special
@@FootyLeaguesAroundtheWorld You gotta do Northern Ireland!
Zambia next

Please do Indonesia, Palestine, Taiwan & Kosovo.
Not about Vatican football, but in some indoor leagues they use a blue card and send you off for a foul.
Malvines Islands please
Ur maldivian too?
@@akial7189 No, I am Argentine, and just in case I am referring to the island of Argentina, not the Maldives, they are very easy to confuse.
Isn’t the official language of Vatican City Latin?
nah man get ur old intro back
nevermind he did
Blue card should be a worldwide rule. Power Play in soccer would be great.
