Scorpio, October 24. Those born on this day have two main themes in life: dramatic revelations, on the one hand, and painful attention to details, on the other.

Since those born on this day are mostly analytical, they have an itchy need to communicate their discoveries to the rest of the world, surprisingly, often in a thrilling and bombastic manner.

However, they never do exhibitions designed for external shocking, but rather become artists and professionals who take their work seriously, in particular, with regard to the technical execution of projects.

They control their influence on those who listen to them or look at them.

Not the least of the qualities of those born on this day is personal magnetism, which allows them to interest other people in what they are doing.

The world's first football club founded

In 1857, two cricket players, the British Nathaniel Creswick and William Prest, founded the first football club, setting a set of rules they called "Sheffield Rules". Until the mid-19th century, there were no established rules in the game, and players could safely push each other onto the field.

Players of the first club "Sheffield" were divided into teams on the basis of age, profession and marital status. So, for example, the “married” team could play against the “idle” team.

"Sheffield's" closest neighbor club, "Hellam", was formed in 1860, and both teams played the first football game in the world on December 26, 1860. The rivalry between these clubs is the oldest in the world and continues to this day.
