Dirty tactics prevail in swamp World Cup
Updated 11.38 Thu Jun 26 2008
Team Rambo won the swamp soccer World Cup in Scotland after a slow-moving final.
The sport is similar to regular football, but it is played in knee-deep mud and the mud-caked players struggle to move the ball around.
Swamp soccer is a worldwide phenomenon and tournaments are also held in Brazil, Russia and Holland
More than 40 teams from around the world took part in the competition in Strachur.
And it culminated in a final between Team Rambo and Angry Beavers.
The game ended 0-0, so it went to penalties, just like the last World Cup final, and Team Rambo won the shootout 5-4.
