A blessing for the weekend's football action

This picture was taken on a Sunday morning - you would have thought the Archbishop/Priest/Cardinal (whatever he is) had something better to do.

But much more importantly, why is he giving the ball back to the opposition straight from kick-off? If he's shooting, he must have been praying a lot if he thought he was going to score from the half-way line. With his instep too, who's he kidding?!

I don't think much of the Church's away kit either.

At least the Pope has his priorities right!

Because even the Pope needs to take time to worship!

Religion, politics and soccer don't mix, but had to share.
