Pope Francis to rugby players: Live life like in the playing field

Apparently, the Pope likes rugby.

 From the article: Addressing the national rugby teams of Italy and Argentina, he highlighted the values of sports, and those for rugby in particular. 

 POPE FRANCIS 
"It's a tough sport, a lot of physical contact, but there is no violence. There's great loyalty, great respect. Playing rugby is tiring. It's no easy walk. And I think it's useful to strengthen character, and one's will.” 

 In sports, as in life, he said, one must fight to reach a goal. That's why the Pope urged all players to fight with that same spirit in their lives, as in the field.
