He is a soldier with big talent that's for sure. I love how he proved everyone wrong. Tho he had his regrets and trauma from the war.

I’m German which kinda requires me to love football but I never did all that much even tho my dad worked as a director for the life broadcast of mainly football games and in the end this movie was still something that brought me closer to it with learning about sports and player history. I’m still a student but I also part time work at the stadium rn so that’s fun for me
