Ranbir Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan show their football skills

Ranbir Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan’s love for football is not unknown and they try to spend as much as time possible on the field for the love of their game.

Ranbir and Abhishek have been spotted on several occasions playing football with other celebrities in charity matches.

Now, both the actors are gearing up for the Under 17 FIFA World Cup being held in India for the first time. There will be several celebrity matches held during the course of time.

In the celebrity team, Junior B is the captain, whereas the Tamasha actor has been given the responsibility of the Vice-Captain. Other team members included celebs such as filmmaker Shoojit Sircar, actors Shabbir Ahluwalia, Vivian Dsena and Armaan Jain, businessmen-producers Raj Kundra and Sachiin Joshi and model-choreographer Marc Robinson

The celebrities’ football team competed against Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), a wing of the Central Armed Police Force which included participants from Maharashtra, Goa, Daman and Diu.

Businessman-filmmaker Bunty Walia, who owns the team of the All Stars Football Club (ASFC) told a leading tabloid, “It was our PM's desire that in the run-up to the Under 17 FIFA World Cup being held in India for the first time in October 2017, the state police and Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) organise football competitions. He wants celebs and students to promote the spirit of football and up fitness levels.Abhishek and Ranbir, who never say `no' to an opportunity to be on the field, no matter how busy they are, immediately agreed.”

On the work front, Ranbir was last seen in Karan Johar’s film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and will soon be seen in his debut production Jagga Jasoos.

Abhishek, on the other hand, has apparently signed a film with Prabhudeva.
