Every day's a school day.

The Romanian football association have found a novel way to help improve children's numeracy - by forcing them to solve equations in order to identify footballers' squad numbers. Romania take on Spain tonight in a friendly, and have presented an impromptu maths test for those looking to work out which player is wearing which number. https://twitter.com/JamesRobJourno/status/714067383913209856 Fair play to the Romanians, this truly is a (4-3) in (500,000x2) idea. It's just a shame Adrian Mu(8-6) wasn't able to end his international exile for the occasion.
