ISIS Behead Four Footballers After Declaring 'Football' Anti-Islamic

ISIS extremists have beheaded four members of a football team after declaring the sport anti-Islamic.

The ISIS militants banned organised sports like football when they took over Raqqa in Syria more than two years ago. Fans in the city used to flock to watch Al-Shabab play matches in the city's large stadium.

And earlier this week crowds watched as the four young men accused of spying for the Kurdish YPG were dispatched by ISIS executioners and murdered. A fifth unknown man was also killed.
