Plot
A group of men with a common passion for soccer, come together to participate in a street soccer tournament that offers handsome prize money for the champion team, in order to help one of their buddies who needs a large sum of money to pay for his child’s surgery. Meanwhile, a group of disillusioned young boys who face uncertain futures, also decide to form a team to take part in the tournament to prove that they are capable of triumphs in their lives.
The two teams start out as arch-enemies but eventually join forces to become a worthy opponent against the mighty Hong Kong team.
