When you rub a match against a rough surface, fire results, giving off light and heat. the law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created.

how can you explain the fire seeming to come from nowhere?

the energy was stored in chemical bonds before it became heat and light.
matches are made to take up energy from surfaces.
the energy started out as the sound energy of the rubbing match.
