Yellows UEFA Champions League: It might have been one of the best decisions for the young Jamie Bynoe-Gittens to skip his cricket ambitions and turn to football.

Due to his father's background, cricket dominated family life as the Barbados-born father had been a cricket player. "I tried a little bit," the 19-year-old Dortmund winger said but admitted: "Football worked much better for me," reports Xinhua.

At an early age, the striker fell in love with football simultaneously in the backyard of his school "when 50 of us kids ran around doing all sorts of tricks," and on the pitches of his local club, Caversham Trents.
