Real Madrid vs 109 children - video
Published Wednesday, Aug 10 2011, 13:42 BST | By Ben Lee | 7 comments
Here's a fact for you: Real Madrid was formed in 1902, meaning that the club is 109 years old.
To mark this figure, someone thought it would be a great idea to pit the team against 109 Chinese children during their Asian tour.
The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Xabi Alonso and many other superstar footballers found themselves continuously swarmed by kids barely half their height. The friendly match took place in a stadium in Guangzhou, China.
While Real had no problem scoring a couple of goals, the children, kitted in white, struggled to find a way past the opposition goalie despite their obvious numerical advantage and heavy periods of possession.
