We’ve seen some entertaining Guitar Hereo viral videos before, but now there’s Football Hero. The video features some freestyle football players, who play the Guitar Hero game, by kicking balls on coloured sensors, which correspond whit the game.

The game is programmed with the Kasabian track Underdog. Although the video has resulted in buzz and awareness on various blogs such as Gizmodo, Engadget and Sporting News.
