The team's 17-year-old captain Li Lin started the team a few weeks ago, taking inspiration from Chow's movie and the World Cup.

"I wondered whether the skills we've learned could help us play," he said.

李林说：“我想知道我们所学的技能对踢球是否有帮助。”

The team trained about four hours every weekend with coach Wang Xiaobo, a Tagou school physical education tutor.

王教练告诉《中国日报》：“他们来问我是否愿意做他们教练。我很高兴看到他们出于自己的意愿进行锻炼。”

Li, whose favorite player is Team England's former captain David Beckham, said, "We watch the World Cup on TV in our dorms and debate about the players."

However, a Shaolin Temple source, who wished to remain anonymous, said monks are not permitted to watch games.

"They must cultivate themselves according to religious doctrine in the evenings and go to sleep early, although they could acquire information online," the source said.

这位知情人士说： “晚上他们必须严格遵循宗教教条修养身心，并且早早睡觉，虽然他们可以通过网络获得各种信息。”
