After the international break over the summer for the European Championships, normal service resumed in the European Blind Football League (EBFL). Round 4 kicked off in a sunny Kraków in Poland.

In the center, a player wearing a dark blue jersey with the number 10 and "HEREFORD" printed on the back controls the ball while wearing eye patches or blindfolds. Nearby, a player in a bright red kit with the number 7 faces toward the play. Another player in dark kit and blindfolds stands in the background alongside a referee in a yellow shirt.

With the absence of Cécifoot Charleroi due to travel disruption, it was just one League game to play for RNC Hereford, and what a cracker it was against A.S.D. Quarto Tempo Firenze. It was a thriller of a game and the 2-4 scoreline didn’t equate with RNC’s performance. RNC’s goals came from Eesa Amjid with a second from Rainbow Mbuangi. There were some outstanding saves at both ends, but it was that man Paul Iyobo who scored a massive four goals to seal the win for Firenze.
