Afghan horse riders fight for a headless goat during a game of buzkashi in Kabul. Invented more than 2,000 years ago and considered a national sport in Afghanistan, buzkashi has elements of rodeo, polo, football and wrestling. Two teams of horsemen use hand-to-hand combat to fight for control of the goat carcass, which they then race to a separate scoring area. |
