Recently some members of oGs and fOu met up for the ultimate team battle - a soccer (football for all you overseaseigners) match! thisisgame.com uploaded some pictures from the event:

You want to know why  MC is so good? He always scouts, even in soccer. Here he is, gazing over the field soon after the teams arrive.

As the teams start stretching,  TheWinD shows that he is always willing to help his players. Definitely a good quality for a coach.

More oGs stretching, they are clearly very coordinated.

fOu stretches as well, but I'll be honest: at first I thought they were trying to choke one another, and I'm fairly confident that pair on the right is doing it wrong.

Hero[Shield] (check him out in the FXOPENIS final in less than 24 hours) is getting some help with his shoe issues. I'm having issues too, with his choice of socks.

Just before the game starts, the teams line up at midfield.

A shot of the oGs bench: from left to right,  Hyperdub, somebody who looks really familiar but I can't quite think of, and I think Vines

The fOu bench - I'm afraid I can't identify any of them D=

Another shot of the oGs sideline, with HayprO, Cezanne, and TOP and his baller jacket.

Meanwhile on the field, the game is underway!

If I've learned anything about soccer, it's the inverse relationship between actual injury and how injured the player acts, so fear not, Zenio is just fine. I'm not sure why SuperNoVa is sitting around like that though, poor form!

LittleBoy reties his shoes, and Hero is simply exhausted.

During halftime, oGs regroups and refuels.

Play resumes! Judging by everyone else, the guy in the red jacket is looking in entirely the wrong direction.

Despite LittleBoy's best defensive efforts, and TheWind's goalkeeping, fOu scores! Ensnare, bud, I'm pretty sure standing there with your hands in your pockets isn't helping the cause.

TOP is made a fool of, but fortunately for him, the shot goes just wide.

Sadly, the best efforts of the oGs players are not enough, as they fall 3-4 to fOu. MC gives solace to LittleBoy afterwards, probably reminding him that both of them are at least .500 vs fOu players in tournaments.

The teams exchange post-game courtesies. If you choose to believe that they're forming that human tunnel that players run through and find orange wedges at the end, well, you're not alone.

The final group picture, with both teams together! Looks like a good time was had by all

Is it wrong that I was hoping for a fist fight? Misleading title.
Take it to the ring boys, that'd be sweet.

|

|

|
damn, i thought it was a fight. shoulda known betta. But still, this is quite interesting. Koreans seems to take a liking to soccer (BW proteams and celebrities have their own soccer team).
|

I was thinking that too. I was like "well, they've finally done it, huh? A fist fight...". I hate being bated by misleading titles -.-
Nevertheless, it was cute. Nice that they can socialize with other teams playing some football.
|
I wanted to see pictures of a street brawl - anchorman style.
But this is still cool, thanks for the pictures.
|
that was a great photoshoot!
thanks
|
That was pretty cool. Never expected them to actually get together and player football together. I guess its great just to get out and do something different, even for starcraft players 
|
Wow great photos and interesting captions! Thanks! :D
|
Out of curiosity, what exactly brought out this event? Was it orchestrated by thisisgame.com or a friendly rivalry between the two teams? Definitely looking forward to seeing more of these if they occur.
Also,
Hero[Shield] (check him out in the FXOPENIS final in less than 24 hours)
Not to be immature, but is that really an appropriate acronym for the tournament?

Gon refuses to give up!
Liquid horses in the background.

Hah, I totally got caught by the title too "Oh no way, Gorilla Terran ACTUALLY FIGHTING? It's just a cheer guys!" but good to see it was just a normal soccer match

(The whole thing is FXOpen Invitational Series, but as fate would have it...)

Lol great photos. Would love to see more team competitions outside of the game like you have with poker for example
