Thanks FIFA, but the real football competition is about to begin in Australia... the over-70s World Cup!

Teams from the US, Wales, England, Germany and Japan are coming down under to compete.

Among the competitors is 83-year-old David Mudge, who holds the Guinness World Record for the oldest person to ever play competitive football.

Good luck to the Oldyroos!
