Elderly woman shows off her keep-up skills - PHOTO+VIDEO

Wearing a long black skirt and cardigan, this respectably dressed pensioner shows she doesn't need a football kit to prove that age is no barrier.

While walking through a suburb of Rome, the elderly woman is passed a ball by a group of children as they play in the street.Others may have walked around it or picked it up. Instead, the mystery female takes the chance to demonstrate some footballing flare.The unidentified female is filmed doing keep-ups, before passing the ball back and forth to the amazed youngsters.She even manages to bounce the ball off her heel at one point, oblivious to the fact cars are driving past.Hours after the footage was taken, she shot to internet fame after the video was shared thousands of times on Facebook.But the identity of the sporty pensioner remains a mystery.Several Italian newspapers have put out an appeal to track down the elderly woman, and speculated that she was probably a keen player herself.One newspaper wrote, 'Gran Learns To Bend It Like Beckham', referring to the film of the same name that stars a group of female football players.All that is known of the woman who is referred to as 'la nonnina' (the granny) in the Italian press is that she is probably from the Italian capital Rome, where the video was filmed.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.az
