45-Year-Old Francesco Totti Scores FOUR Absolute Worldies Playing Eight-A-Side, He's A Joke Of A Player

Francesco Totti could probably still play now, having ran the show in an eight-a-side fixture.

Francesco Totti retired from football five years ago but he's still out here running the show at the age of 45.


After calling time on his professional career, the Roma and Italy legend set-up Totti Sporting Club and regularly plays in eight-a-side and five-a-side leagues.

His team play in the Lega Calcio a 8 and Totti remains an absolute baller. In his latest outing, 'Il Capitano', obviously wearing the No.10 on his back, scored FOUR strikes and they were all beauties.

First he scored a trademark free-kick, before unleashing a netbuster into the top corner after a lay off from a teammate.

The hat-trick was completed courtesy of a breathtaking volley into the top bins, before there was time for another long-range effort to find the net.

Totti almost single-handedly dragged his side to a win, though former Chievo and Bologna striker Davide Moscardelli also struck twice.

Totti's team are eighth in the league, having won nine, drawn three and lost five in 17 outings.

During his career Totti remained a one club man, scoring 307 goals in 786 appearances spread across 25 seasons in Serie A for the Giallorossi.

Choosing loyalty over trophies, he lifted one Serie A title in 2000/2001 as well as two back-to-back Coppa Italias in 2006/07 and 2007/08.

He did notably turn down a lucrative move to Real Madrid many years back.

There was a very important offer from Madrid in 2004. But I decided to give up on lots of titles so that I'd always wear just one shirt.

"This was what mattered most to me. In the end, instead, I received love and passion, which for me were more important than winning cups elsewhere. I put Roma ahead of everything."
