O's set to host international FIFA tournament

Last night, Leyton Orient challenged 63 other teams to join a mass FIFA 20 tournament and following incredible response, the O’s are aiming to kick start a 128 man knock out competition called #UltimateQuaranTeam.

🤷‍♂️ Sure, connect four is cool but we’ve got a better idea!

We need 63 other teams to enter a knock-out FIFA 20 tournament.

To enter, all we need is the club to RT this tweet.

We will host a live draw this Tuesday…

Almost 90 teams have filed their interest in taking part including teams from: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Australia. A familiar face will take control of Crystal Palace, as Andros Townsend represents the Eagles!

Having watched Connect Four take off on social media, we wondered how could we improve the idea? FIFA is a worldwide phenomenon and provides an opportunity for football clubs from around the world to engage world wide, whilst still following safety guidance.
