Best Football movie you will ever see

I am a football fan and widely travelled but I did not know the story of the Yugoslavia football team in the 1930 World Cup in Uruguay and I thoroughly enjoyed this film from start to finish. I am a little uncomfortable with the reference to the Yugoslav team being entirely Serbian but I acknowledge why it was referenced in the way it was and i empathise with the analogy if a British team competing was comprised entirely of Englishmen.Superbly filmed, excellent dialogues, loaded with comic moments, touching moments of romance and suspense but I wonder if the romance was true between the Yugoslav football player and Dolores? In years there has not been a football related movie to get even remotely close to 'The Damned United' and the Brian Clough story but this, given it is a foreign language film, exceeds that and you are missing a jewel of a movie at your absolute peril.It is a weird kind of agony that Yugoslavia beat the favoured nation Brazil in their first match which nation also supplied the reference for that eventful semi=final with Uruguay and the irony extends to the 1950 final when Uruguay beat Brazil on their 'patch'.The film itself was in my view faultless but I would have liked some reference at the end as to what happened in the lives of those Yugoslav football players. Did they return to Serbia? By the way, reference to Coca Cola was a little odd because I thought the soft drink was not marketed aligned with Santa Klaus for red and white until the Christmas of 1936.

Excellent film

I loved this film, but there are some mistakes in it concerning the Brazilian team. In the 30's there were almost no African Brazilians playing football. In fact, the first one was Benedicto, playing for Vasco Da Gama and for the national team that went to Uruguai. My father used to tell his story, adding that after him, black players started being accepted. The Fluminense Football Club had a black player who used to paint his body with white powder so that he could play. It gave the team the nickname of "face powder", which is still used today. The clothes the players use in the film are wrong too. They are Brazilians after all, and not Africans. In spite of these mistakes, and many others, the film is very good and brings about many questions related to the world cup that still prevail...

One of the best football movies, even though it's not just about the sport

There aren't a lot of films about association football where football features so much. This has it all - football, drama, love, comedy, friendship and camaraderie. It's visually great, the music amazing, the main plot is good and there are enough sub-plots to keep the story interesting. The film is a bit of a light-hearted drama (not too heavy, deep or sad) and has moments of light comedy and comes off as being cute.It does play as a feel-good film without avoiding issues such as corruption, nationalism, what is the precursor to football hooliganism and so on, but it does not take those issues lightly either.Overall a great film and a must watch for people that are into history, football and the history of football.
