A five-a-side football team from Finchley has won the chance to play against a legend of the game after coming out champions at a national competition.
Vasco FC will take on a team featuring World Cup winner Zinedine Zidane in France in June after they won a UK-wide five-a-side tournament organised by Adidas Bodycare.
Former French international Zidane, an Adidas ambassador, will feature in the tournament the boys qualified for, which is being held in the south of France in June.
The players came top of 18 teams from across the country to win the competition, held in Romford, Essex, on Saturday.
Ismet Sumbul, from Finchley, who was named man of the match for his team, said: “Zidane is one of my sporting heroes and a chance to meet and play a game of five-a-side against him will be a dream come true.”
