Goooal! The extraordinarily talented eleven-year-old Georgie from Manchester plays a passionate game of football, and would love to sign up his team for a junior tournament in the city. Unable to pay the high entry fee, he promptly sets about stealing the money. The old man that catches him red-handed just happens to be Sir Matt Busby, the legendary manager of Manchester United. Sir Matt soon begins training Georgie’s team and looking out for the young lads. But Georgie becomes increasingly tangled in a web of lies until, one day, he gets the red card – from his mother!
