Video: These Irish men have pulled off the most perfect game of head tennis you’ll ever see

It's just like watching Brazil

Paul Moore

It’s just like watching Brazil.

There are many events in a game of football that almost have the same effect as scoring a goal.

A last ditch tackle can sometimes feel as good as seeing your side hit the back of the net, a fantastic save from your ‘keeper can get the adrenaline pumping also and a crunching 50/50 challenge should get your heart pumping.

Euphoria and joy can come from a multitude of places but the scenes in this garden at Clonskeagh, Dublin are almost akin to Germany celebrating Mario Gotze’s World Cup winning goal in the Maracana last summer.

We’ve seen some fairly impressive games of head tennis before but this one trumps them all.

Take a look.

We've only gone and done it!
