A team recruited through uefa.com enjoyed an evening of pure footballing theatre on Tuesday as they competed on a floating platform in Venice as part of UEFA Champions League sponsor Sony's seven-location Twilight Football campaign.

Once-in-a-lifetime trip
The Twilight Football campaign saw games of football played at twilight in seven breathtaking venues across the globe on the September equinox. For the game in Venice, Sony recruited a team of seven players exclusively through uefa.com, with the lucky participants taking part in a match on a floating platform on the canals as the sun set to cast a dramatic colour over Venice's historic buildings.

Autumn equinox
The other locations for the event were: Chamonix (France), Antequera (Spain), Tintagel (United Kingdom), Iguazu Falls (Argentina), Pinnacle Desert (Australia) and Cape Town (South Africa). All the venues provided a stunning backdrop against the natural light of sunset on what is the autumn or spring equinox depending which hemisphere you are in.
