Call it soccer, football, footie or any other name it is known by. It’s a popular team sport that’s practiced around the world by toddlers to grown men, men and women alike. Like with any other sport, improving your soccer skills requires time, dedication, and practice.

Birmingham City is one of the best supported and most historic clubs in the whole of England (they were bound to have a huge support since they are based in England’s ‘second capital’). Despite all of this, they have never been a dominant force in the top flight of football (at least in the last 20 years, and since the Premier League was designed in the 1990’s).

The much awaited Orange African Nations’ Cup 2010 finally kicked off yesterday at the November 11 stadium in Luanda amidst beauty and pageantry.
