:00:00. > :00:27.It's Seema here for this week's Kickabout and

:00:28. > :00:30.have we got a feast of footie action for you today.

:00:31. > :00:36.Our resident freestyler John Farnworth meets a young

:00:37. > :00:44.We check out the ones to watch at today's women's FA

:00:45. > :00:46.Cup final between Birmingham and Manchester City.

:00:47. > :00:49.WWE star Sheamus and Sasha Banks, well, they try out our

:00:50. > :00:52.brand-new challenge, the bucket list.

:00:53. > :00:55.And, of course, don't forget to keep your eyes peeled for the

:00:56. > :00:59.WWE meets MOTDK, I don't know about you,

:01:00. > :01:03.Well, before all of that, though, let's take a quick look at

:01:04. > :01:09.the stories that have been making the headlines this week.

:01:10. > :01:12.Manchester United survived a late scare

:01:13. > :01:15.against Spanish visitors Celta Vigo on Thursday night and now they have

:01:16. > :01:17.secured a place in the Europa League final.

:01:18. > :01:19.Marouane Fellaini's goal proved enough to see the Reds

:01:20. > :01:23.through where they will face Dutch giants Ajax.

:01:24. > :01:24.And over in the Champions League, holders Real

:01:25. > :01:31.Madrid will face Juventus in next month's final in Cardiff.

:01:32. > :01:34.Can you spot the difference between these two?

:01:35. > :01:41.People in the city of Hamadan certainly can't.

:01:42. > :01:44.You would be forgiven for thinking both are photos of

:01:45. > :01:48.Lionel Messi but actually one is Iranian student Reza Parastesh.

:01:49. > :01:51.He had to be taken in by police last weekend because so many people

:01:52. > :01:56.Well, to be fair, the resemblance was pretty

:01:57. > :01:58.striking, even I would've got that one confused.

:01:59. > :02:00.Well, another young man hitting the headlines recently was

:02:01. > :02:03.No, not as another Messi lookalike but he

:02:04. > :02:05.can certainly control the ball like him.

:02:06. > :02:07.Last month, Tommy broke the record for completing ten Maradona

:02:08. > :02:16.sevens in the fastest time, beating a previous

:02:17. > :02:17.time set by our very own John Farnworth.

:02:18. > :02:20.So, John went to meet him to find out how Tommy broke

:02:21. > :02:33.The thing is, you have got my world record.

:02:34. > :02:39.I know how hard that world record is.

:02:40. > :02:50.Every day I asked my mum to take me to school a bit early and I

:02:51. > :02:53.went out onto the tennis courts, I just practised it.

:02:54. > :02:58.You have to be under perfect control, to do it in that

:02:59. > :03:09.I've done a few records in my time and I

:03:10. > :03:19.So, it is one touch with the left foot, right foot, left knee,

:03:20. > :03:24.right knee, left shoulder, right shoulder, right shoulder, head.

:03:25. > :03:32.I didn't really know much about freestyle

:03:33. > :03:40.It sort of came about because I thought kick-ups were a

:03:41. > :03:42.great way to improve your touch in football, your balance,

:03:43. > :03:45.So I incorporated it into my practice and

:03:46. > :03:47.when you are getting like over 1000, 2000,

:03:48. > :03:49.I thought I need a change and

:03:50. > :03:53.that is when my freestyle came in, I saw the tricks, I saw people like

:03:54. > :04:10.you, the F2, doing the tricks and then I just had a go at them.

:04:11. > :04:13.Who are your inspirations in football?

:04:14. > :04:15.I have been a Chelsea fan all my life.

:04:16. > :04:18.I would say my favourite player is definitely Hazard.

:04:19. > :04:36.I practice as much as I possibly can.

:04:37. > :04:39.In terms of hours but when I'm not practising training, I

:04:40. > :04:42.And I will take it with me to the supermarket,

:04:43. > :04:46.So it is hard to say exactly how many

:04:47. > :04:50.hours a day I do of purposeful practice.

:04:51. > :04:55.He is trying to go for a double around the world which is so

:04:56. > :05:02.hard but he won't leave until he gets it.

:05:03. > :05:05.I aways want to set myself new challenges but I haven't really

:05:06. > :05:09.got a specific record I want to work to but I am definitely not done.

:05:10. > :05:12.I would just work hard, never give up.

:05:13. > :05:15.Always practice it and if you want something bad enough, keep working

:05:16. > :05:26.Well, there is more from John in just a moment

:05:27. > :05:29.with his player picks for today's women's FA Cup final.

:05:30. > :05:31.And how about that for a world record, hey?

:05:32. > :05:33.It's not just John and Tommy who have

:05:34. > :05:35.been practising, you lot have also got some top skills.

:05:36. > :05:43.Boys, I'm loving the teamwork so far and look, he's just

:05:44. > :05:45.managed to get the ball into the bin.

:05:46. > :05:56.I'm loving that little celebration there.

:05:57. > :06:08.Don't tell me he's going to do it a third time.

:06:09. > :06:10.Oh, he has made it, it is the triple crossbar

:06:11. > :06:18.Brilliant goal, I think that one actually deserves a bit of a replay.

:06:19. > :06:28.Now the next one is Frankie with his keepy uppies.

:06:29. > :06:30.Now, Frankie managed 503 keepy uppies.

:06:31. > :06:41.And I think it is quite fitting that he is wearing a Messi top.

:06:42. > :06:44.And this one is Anyah, now, I am loving your skills.

:06:45. > :06:50.Some top work there, Anyah, well done you.

:06:51. > :06:52.Well, if you've got some super skills to show off here

:06:53. > :06:54.on Kickabout, well, what are you waiting for?

:06:55. > :06:57.Send them in, we would love to see them.

:06:58. > :07:00.You can either upload a clip via the Kickabout page

:07:01. > :07:04.on the CBBC website or e-mail kickabout@bbc.co.uk.

:07:05. > :07:07.And, girls, I've got to tell you something, the boys are

:07:08. > :07:10.outnumbering you at the moment so, come on, let's have some more videos

:07:11. > :07:18.Well, one place you can certainly expect to see some skills

:07:19. > :07:21.today is at Wembley for the women's FA Cup final.

:07:22. > :07:23.Birmingham City ladies, who won the trophy back in

:07:24. > :07:25.2012, well, they will take on Manchester City women and here,

:07:26. > :07:30.on the ones to watch out for, is our very own John Farnham.

:07:31. > :07:36.Before we get to that, tell us about Tommy.

:07:37. > :07:41.Honestly, he is brilliant, he has inspired me.

:07:42. > :07:44.Well, let's talk about the ones to watch out for then.

:07:45. > :07:47.Yes, starting with City, they have had the season of

:07:48. > :07:50.They are undefeated in the league, obviously league

:07:51. > :07:53.I'm going to start with one of their star players,

:07:54. > :07:57.Now, she has won quite a lot of awards, including two Player of

:07:58. > :08:05.To think that she is a defender as well, look at that.

:08:06. > :08:10.And, John, you've also got your eyes on one of their

:08:11. > :08:13.key strikers, Toni Duggan, she scored a hat-trick in 18 minutes

:08:14. > :08:15.against Bristol City, she is certainly on fine form

:08:16. > :08:23.I mean, she is a class act, a very well-known

:08:24. > :08:25.player in the Premier League and do you know what?

:08:26. > :08:28.She has won it with Everton before in 2010 so she knows

:08:29. > :08:33.Fingers crossed her grandad will be there because he was her

:08:34. > :08:36.He is going to be there, cheering her on.

:08:37. > :08:40.So, John, they are up against Birmingham City, they have

:08:41. > :08:42.had an amazing cup run but who are the key

:08:43. > :08:46.To start with, the youngster, Jess Carter has really caught my eye.

:08:47. > :08:48.She has just been crowned young Player of the Year.

:08:49. > :08:51.She is no doubt going to bring some quality to this game.

:08:52. > :08:55.I tell you, Jess Carter is always in the right place at the right time

:08:56. > :08:59.My one to watch, Seema, is Ellen White.

:09:00. > :09:06.She, honestly, she has not been at Blues that long but

:09:07. > :09:09.She sends Birmingham to Wembley, easy as

:09:10. > :09:12.She scored the decisive goal in the penalty shoot

:09:13. > :09:15.out against Chelsea and she's going to be one to watch in today's game.

:09:16. > :09:18.So, if Toni Duggan scores and Ellen White, are you expecting

:09:19. > :09:23.We could have lots of goals in today's games.

:09:24. > :09:26.Well, John, you have been a superstar as always.

:09:27. > :09:33.And, of course, good luck to both teams involved today.

:09:34. > :09:36.It is set to be a record crowd for the final so I

:09:37. > :09:38.am sure we will see a fantastic game.

:09:39. > :09:41.Well, two superstars who are certainly used to performing in

:09:42. > :09:43.front of big crowds are WWE superstars Sheamus and Sasha Banks.

:09:44. > :09:45.But how would they fare against the mighty

:09:46. > :09:57.I am going to take on the bucket list.

:09:58. > :10:11.Everybody knows I am the greatest football fan in the WWE.

:10:12. > :10:16.I mean, you should do the bucket list, then.

:10:17. > :10:19.So bad, I don't even know where to start.

:10:20. > :10:51.That didn't go anywhere according to plan.

:10:52. > :12:13.Team Banks, you guys, you put on a great effort.

:12:14. > :12:15.I have to say, great job, but there can

:12:16. > :12:29.That bucket list, not as easy as it first

:12:30. > :12:35.And, this week, we are looking at Welsh wizards ahead of

:12:36. > :12:39.next month's Champions League final in Cardiff, bring on the goals.

:12:40. > :13:12.Fullen rather nicely here for Bellamy.

:13:13. > :13:16.And the week has turned out rather well for Craig Bellamy.

:13:17. > :13:20.Robbie Savage gets Birmingham up to an

:13:21. > :13:34.Coming inside, he has got it across his man here.

:13:35. > :13:46.Before we go, there is just time to take a look at the five players

:13:47. > :13:48.shortlisted for the BBC women's Footballer of the Year award.

:13:49. > :13:53.Well, head to the Kickabout website for all of the details on
