Estonia v Canada football March 26th 08

Only in Estonia could you play (and win 2-0) in 20cm of snow and -6 temperatures! This friendly international was played in Tallinn on March 26. Estonia played to the environment and won 2-0.

heh ..... I was there in Tallinn all the way from Toronto that day and met some great people. The Estonian supporters were tops, and shovelling the pitch pregame was a great experience. And Hollywood afterward was even better ; )

I love Tallinn! Can't wait to go back!

@Ulbidab its still an international match and the players are in danger to be hurt.. also, the lines have to be cleaned so that the players can see whether they can tackle in the box or not. and another thing, weather like this does not occur in canada so thats why estonia won

You can't when it's the multi-millionaire footballers in England or Italy, but when it's just a bunch of second rate footballers from Estonia and Canada there's no problem.

@psylowade  This game isn't in Canada...It's in ESTONIA!!!!

[kisbie]

@kisbie Surely they could (and should) have done it again at half-time though? I know it was only a friendly but still...

[Sten558]

@kisbie they were marked out but snow covered them

[kisbie]

Shouldn't they have had to mark out the lines on the pitch? I'd have thought it would illegal to play without those?

[Pasakild]

@psylowade it's in Estonia

[feddercity]

their toes must be freezing. i remember one time i played on snow, worst idea in my life. i dont even know how these guys can take the cold..
