    Went to watch this Documentry/movie last night.
    Absolutley fab it was.

    For all you so called football fans who have never heard of it.
    Its the story of the worst International football team in the world,American Samoa. They hold the record for most goals conceeded in an International game.32-0 V Australia.
    And it charts how one man, Thomas Rongen turned them into a proper team.
    The American Samoa players are so passionate and why we all fell in love with the beautiful game,and Thomas Rongen is strict,fair and very funny.And how his passion for the game came through in his players.

    If you like a good Docu/movie about the beautiful game go see. NEXT GOAL WINS.
