Prince William the other day really disgraced himself during a football duel with a 13-year-old schoolboy from Birmingham. This greatly reduced the authority of the heir to the British crown in the eyes of his zealous fans. How did the honorary president of the British Football Association fail to cope with the three penalties, being an excellent athlete? Most likely, the future monarch was simply not in the form, both literally and figuratively.
How it was?
The representative of the British royal court from time to time had to participate in various official events. This time on the shoulders of Prince William lay the duty to visit the Birmingham branch of the society "Football for Peace".
Why did the choice fall on Prince William? The fact is that he is a real fan of football, and besides - the future king.

After the long, solemn speeches were over, the prince was offered a walk in the field and tried to "break through a penalty". At the gate put Dominic Rankar, one of the participants in the sports club.
The prince was prevented ... boots
Before starting to storm the gates, the prince voiced his fears.
- Please note that I'm not dressed for a game of football. I'm wearing an uncomfortable suit and heavy boots, "said the future monarch.
Then he chatted with young Mr. Rancar at ease, and it turned out that they have a lot in common, in particular, love for the Aston Villa football club from Birmingham.
True, this resemblance to the goalkeeper did not allow Prince William to take over him! The boy easily repelled the first ball that flew directly into his hands, while the other two flew above the bar.
