Kids just having fun

In about 20 seconds, and after the ball had touched about six heads, the kid close to a plastic bucket used as a goal post creatively 'netted' the ball.

After he did that, the rest erupted in wild jubilation at the master performance they all pulled off.

They are a good team

"What struck me was the fact that none of these kids were racing to hit the ball ahead of another, to be the "star". They KNEW their goal was to get it into the bucket. True teamwork."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a talented Nigerian lady, Fakiyesi Abisola Anthonia, from Ekiti state, showed off her football-playing skill in a viral video.

Posting the video on Friday, March 5, the lady said she is "an average girl from the average streets with an empty pocket and a bag of dreams."

Anthonia, therefore, asked people to help her retweet her video so that it can go viral and gain wide attention from social media users.
