For those who don't know. This is the story of WW1 . When britishers and germans celebrated Christmas together, they had dinner together, sang together. They played football with each other and Hans wolf (German officer) decided that the one who will win in football match would win without any war.

Kind of sad when you realize that some of those troops didn’t survive the rest of the war 😢

Sad fact is that they had to go back to fighting each other after that😢😢
