Football match Between SK Gaming and G2 Esports Could Be Happening

The players of SK Gaming are not only talented Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players, as they also have experience winning football matches. Having defeated the likes of Natus Vincere and Virtus.pro on the football field, SK Gaming is looking for a third CS:GO team to test out their skills on, and it is looking like G2 Esports is ready to accept the challenge. 

@G2apEX @G2NBK @G2bodyy @G2kennyS @G2SmithZz @G2shox do any of you play ball? I'd love to show the brazillians some tiki-taka...

The CEO of G2 Esports, Carlos "Ocelote” Rodriguez, responded to Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo's tweet challenging other CS:GO teams to meet them on the football field. He checked with all of his players to see if any of them would like to compete in the match. Kenny "kennyS" Schrub responded to the call and said "Sounds good to me, I’m not sure we have many players within the team though, except dan and myself."

Showing the reach of CS:GO esports into the football world, FC Barcelona player André Gomes jumped into the conversation and offered his help to the French team by suggesting that he could disguise himself as newly added G2 player Oscar "mixwell" Cañellas. Gomes would later go on to make the offer of having both teams scrimmage in Barcelona. 

With SK Gaming boasting a 2-0 record in their previous football matches against fellow CS:GO teams, G2 Esports may need the help of a professional footballer in order to have a chance of dethroning the football kings of Counter-Strike.
