Here is my code

public List<LiveScore> parse(InputStream is) {
        try {

            String tournament = null,tournament_place = null,date = null,time = null,status = null,player_one = null,player_two;
            XmlPullParserFactory factory = XmlPullParserFactory.newInstance();
            factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
            XmlPullParser parser = factory.newPullParser();

            parser.setInput(is, null);

            liveScoreArrayList = new ArrayList<LiveScore>();

            int eventType = parser.getEventType();
            while (eventType != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {
                String tagname = parser.getName();
                switch (eventType) {
                    case XmlPullParser.START_TAG:

                        if ("category".equals(tagname)){

                            tournament = parser.getAttributeValue(null,"name");
                            tournament_place = parser.getAttributeValue(null,"city");

                        }

                        if ("match".equals(tagname)){

                            date = parser.getAttributeValue(null,"date");
                            time = parser.getAttributeValue(null,"time");
                            status = parser.getAttributeValue(null,"status");

                        }

                        break;

                    case XmlPullParser.TEXT:

//                        text = parser.getText();
//                        Log.i(TAG, "parse: text: "+text);

                        break;

                    case XmlPullParser.END_TAG:

                        if ("player".equals(tagname)){

                            player_one = parser.getAttributeValue(null,"name");

                        }



                        Log.d("LiveMatch", "parse: category : "+tournament+" city = "+tournament_place+" date = "+date+ " time = "+time+" status = "+status+" player_one = "+player_one);

//                        rankList.add(new Rank(rank,player_name+" \n"+country,points ));


                        break;

                    default:
                        break;
                }
                eventType = parser.next();
            }

        } catch (XmlPullParserException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
        catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}

        return liveScoreArrayList;
    }
