From Stewart Coggin, your Guide to World Soccer
A number of new articles have been added to the World Soccer site over the last month. Earlier in February I wrote a tips piece for strikers in one-on-one situations and also looked at the ideal diet for a soccer player. A number of players over the years have been dubbed 'the new Maradona', and I looked at five who have been saddled with that lofty, and probably unwanted, title. Lionel Messi is one of these and I have produced a 'beginners' guide' to the best player in the world. Other content added this month includes a collection of the best Mario Balotelli stories and profiles of Tottenham winger Gareth Bale and Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque.

About World Soccer: Zambia Honor 1993 Victims With AFCON Triumph

From Stewart Coggin, your Guide to World Soccer
On Sunday Zambia became Africa Cup of Nations winners for the first time after defeating Ivory Coast 8-7 on penalties. The 120 minutes of goalless soccer in Gabon were not the most enthralling, but the Zambia players and their coach will care little about that. This was a particularly poignant victory because it occurred close to the scene of the tragic 1993 plane crash which killed 18 of the Zambia squad and their coach.
