According to the report, the game has been organized to gain international exposure for the talks between the government of Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos and the FARC to be held in Cuba to resolve a decade old conflict.
The conflict between the FARC and the successive Colombian governments has been going on for nearly half a century and has claimed more than 200,000 lives. ANI ------------ ZEENEWS.com
