Title: 17/10/15

There are a number of things that could potentially distract football players during matches - but a train hurtling its way past a pitch during a game has got to be perhaps the most unusual - and distracting - of them all.

However, that is the reality for Slovakian amateur team TJ Tatran Čierny Balog, who play their games next to a railway track that regularly has trains making its way past the ground - even during matches.

You would have thought they might have got more... steamed up about it!.  ;)

Great vid - I expected the train to be the other side of the pitch!
