Just in case you've ever wondered how football would look if covered using 15th-century embroidering techniques...
Using the Bayeux Tapestry Construction kit, Twitter user @CheapPanini ventured to recreate several seminal moments in football history, including Diego Maradona's "Hand of God" and Eric Cantona's infamous kung-fu kick.
Not sure why but I made a Bayeux Tapestry version of Cantona's kung-fu kick pic.twitter.com/3kQ6cKgSRJ

And now a Bayeux Tapestry version of Maradona's 'Hand Of God' versus England in 1986. pic.twitter.com/xNeSeQ2Juj

Exquisite attention to detail included in both efforts, right down to the exact advertising hoarding Cantona leaped over at Selhurst Park on the dark, dingy day in 1066 -- sorry, 1995.
Brilliant stuff!
