The Vatican's mini-World Cup

In 2007, the first ever Clericus Cup was played, with trainee priests from the Vatican City's seminaries competing.

It was an effort to present a different image of football, following various Italian scandals.

Don Davide Tisato, the captain of the winning team and a former professional footballer, has been speaking to Laura Jones, along with Felice Alborghetti from the Centro Sportivo Italiano.
