We all thought live football was gone from our lives, but clubs all around the world are signing up to FIFA tournaments -- and we're keeping track of them!

JUMP TO: Orient's #UltimateQuaranTeam update -- City scrape through, Irish team thrashed 10-0

The La Liga FIFA 20 tournament reached an exciting finale on Sunday as Real Madrid ran out winners of the inaugural quarantine-friendly competition.

With Marco Asensio at the helm, the virtual Real powered to a 4-2 victory over Leganes (represented by Aitor Rubial) in the final after seeing off Eibar in the semis.

Luka Modric was among the scorers in the final for Asensio's all-conquering XI, who now have the honour of being the inaugural winners of both the European Cup and this (no less prestigious) online competition.

The championship was organised by Spanish YouTuber and gamer Ibai Llanos and involved players from all of Spain's 20 top-flight teams.

As well as helping to keep folks entertained in the absence of real football, the event has also helped raise around €142,000 ($152,000 to help in the fight against coronavirus.

"It has been a spectacular tournament," Asensio said after securing the win, with which he was clearly delighted.

"The goal was to have a good time, laugh, entertain ourselves in these difficult times for everyone, and donate in the fight against COVID-19 and we have succeeded!"

Whether Asensio will be forced to defend his crown in a second installment of the franchise, only time will tell.

¡Enhorabuena, madridistas! ?

The idea to create a full tourney came about after around 60,000 football-starved fans tuned in to watch a virtual derby between Borja Iglesias of Real Betis and Sergio Reguilon of Sevilla -- which saw the former triumph in a dramatic 6-5 win for Betis.

The competition is the brainchild of Esports aficionado Llanos, who serves as tournament organiser, host, drawmaster and even live commentator -- all while remaining comfortable in his bathrobe at home.

Here's how the first edition of the competition shook out, in full:

Orient's #UltimateQuaranTeam update -- City scrape through, Irish team thrashed 10-0

The first round of Leyton Orient's grand FIFA 20 tournament has been completed with plenty of dramatic results on the opening day.

With real football postponed until further notice, the League Two club have organised a huge 128-team competition that has seen real world clubs taking each other on in video game form.

In one of the standout ties, Belgian side KV Kortrijk bravely took Manchester City to a replay, only for Premier League quality to win out eventually.

Let's goooo!!!

After a 1-1 draw in the first leg, @Shellzz takes the replay 3-0?

Reports that Waterford may have been suffering from a faulty controller are as yet unconfirmed.

As well as passing the time during a football blackout, the "Quaranteam" tournament is also raising vital money for charity as well as Football League clubs, many of whom will be facing financial uncertainty in the coming months.

The draw for the second round will take place early next week, ahead of Tuesday's round of 64 matches.

Initially aiming for 64 clubs, they had to expand to competition to welcome 128 teams from all corners of the footballing community to create a festival of FIFA football.

?‍♂️ Sure, connect four is cool but we've got a better idea!

We need 63 other teams to enter a knock-out FIFA 20 tournament.

To enter, all we need is the club to RT this tweet.

We will host a live draw this Tuesday...

Almost immediately interest began to flood in from the Premier League and beyond, from Benfica to Ibiza.

To clarify a couple of things...

- Each club will chose a representative to play throughout. Could be a first-team player, or fan - their call.

- To enter, the club has to be on FIFA, and play as themselves.

Then came the moment when the 64-team competition was expanded to 128, such was the sheer amount of interest.
