Goal! (also known as Goal! The Dream Begins in the United States) is a 2005 film directed by Danny Cannon. It is the first installment of a trilogy also named Goal!. This film was made with full cooperation from FIFA, which is one of the reasons actual teams and players are used throughout the film. The second installment, Goal! 2: Living the Dream..., was released in February 2007. The third installment, Goal! III: Taking on the World, was released straight to DVD in June 2009.
Santiago Muñez is a skilled footballer. He is the son of a gardener who lives in a barrio section of Los Angeles and illegally entered the USA from Mexico ten years earlier. Besides gardening with his father, he works as a bus boy in a Chinese restaurant. His ultimate dream is to play football professionally. Due to his poor life and the fact that he plays solely for a local club consisting of Hispanics who work in a car wash, he feels it is unlikely. One day his skills are noticed by Glen Foy, a former Newcastle United player and scout who works as a car mechanic. Glen arranges to get Muñez a tryout with Newcastle United, who have recently signed a new player named Gavin Harris. Needing to get to England, Santiago starts to save his money, which he stashes in an old shoe. Unfortunately, his father steals his savings to buy a Chevrolet truck, allowing them to work for themselves. His dream is not lost, though, when his grandmother, who loves football as much as he does, sells off some old jewelry and buys him his tickets to England.
A game of passion with a little twist
For all the glory of a brave new world
What started out a simple game
Appears to have broken into shame
Fanatically proven to be insane
Is no excuse to create ...
... create some pain
Sport of madness adrenaline rush
For a major victory is worth the shot
What started out a simple game
Appears to have broken into shame
Fanatically proven to be insane
Is no excuse to reach ...
... reach a goal
