00:00My name is Mohamed Lapia. I play for Salon Flying Star and Petri Football Club.
00:07Started Flying Star just after the war. I step on the landmine. The landmine chop up my feet.
00:15I was 12 years old when I lose my hand and tied my hands like this and set fire on
00:20it.
00:21Boom. And burned my hands.
00:23But when you come and see us playing football, you will be touched in your heart.
00:41I like football. You see, because it encourages me not to sit down. So I'm happy with the football team.
00:49You see, because I have friends encouraging me.
00:52I love football. Because football can do so many things. Football can bring peace in the country. Football can bring
00:59developments. Football can employ lots of people job opportunities.
01:04Like for us, the disabled. Football gives us courage. Because we are thinking that we have lost. Because we lost
01:12our leg. We lost our hand.
01:16Football can bring peace.
01:17You know this discrimination or not this country no one frame itself. We need for do something we did make.
01:25We for gamble our problem.
01:28Don't want us to go to the streets we beg. For us, we are not beggars.
01:32we are
01:33drunk believing that sports
01:35will only change our life
