Why do players wear blindfolds during blind football at the Paralympics?
Briefly

Blind football is a unique sport in the Paralympics where all outfield players must wear blackout blindfolds to ensure equality among participants with varying degrees of visual impairment.
The Brazilian team has dominated blind football since its inception in the Paralympics, securing gold medals at every event, with teams like Argentina, France, and China striving to end their winning streak.
To aid visually impaired players, the ball is equipped with a sound-making device, compelling the audience to maintain silence during matches to help players track the ball.
The classification of visual impairments in blind football is meticulous, divided into categories B1, B2, and B3, defining the levels of sight that players may possess.
