If you sit down and follow any of the Paralympic coverage, you’ll quickly realize that nothing is impossible.
Take for instance visually impaired Iranian soccer player Behzad Zadaliasghari. He pulled a Messi-like move against Morocco, dribbling past the entire team, and sending one into the back of the net.
In this 5-a-side tournament, each player wears a mask to level the playing field for those who can’t see at all, and those who have partial vision.
