As you know, I am not much of a sports fan. However, I prefer futbol over football for a number of reasons.
#1 being the shorts, gotcha no judgement here brother.

Phew thank goodness! I loved the color and didn't think i would actually win it for only $25. Lol They like high light and flow if I remember right?
I'm sure this has been answered... Yes, high light and flow... they will do fine in medium light and flow as well. They aren't like an acropora in those regards.
