| The first known photograph of a football game in the Faroe Islands. (Photo: Wikipedia) |
Wikipedia may not be the most reliable of encyclopedias, but it has the knack of digging up some fantastic gems like this one. This was the first known photograph of a football game in the Faroe Islands, dating from the 18th of July, 1909. Home team HB Torshavn took on TB Tvoroyi (the oldest club in the Faroes). Wearing the white sleeves, HB won 3-1 at the Gundadalur Grounds. These two teams still do battle, 106 years later, in the EFFO-deildin.
