Note: Football is the world's favourite game where there's everything to play for and anything can happen. Like, a dog walking on the pitch in injury time and saving your team from relegation. A goal keeper saving two crucial goals with a broken neck. Or even a game erupting in no man's land between the British and German soldiers during the Christmas Truce. From great events to the completely unknown and down-right ridiculous, these are the best stories from the beautiful game.

Note: Johnny Ball loves football. He loves reading about it, talking about it, watching it - and he loves playing it too. He's a good player, but not quite good enough to make the Tissbury Primary School team for the super-huge Under-11s County Cup. But never mind, because their clueless coach, Mr Mann, has a special role for Johnny: Assistant Manager! With only Grandpa George's old scarf, a 'pocket' notebook and his brilliant football brain, can Johnny lead the Tissbury Primary team all the way to County Cup glory?
