Trivia
During the
film when Real Madrid plays against Arsenal, some of the scenes were taken from
the real match.
The nickname Supersub given to Santiago was once the official
nickname of David Fairclough who won decisive matches for Liverpool FC as a substitute,
and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who was famous for coming off the bench and scoring
shortly afterwards.
In the locker room scene of the final match, a picture
of Michael Owen can be seen on the locker even though Real Madrid have sold him
at the start of the movie.
In the movie, Real Madrid won the Champions League
by scoring two goals in injury time, in the similar fashion when Manchester United
won it in 1999. Coincidentally, David Beckham was also playing for United in that
final.
Hughie McGowan (Kieran O'Brien) makes a cameo appearance during the
half time of the final match between Real Madrid and Arsenal.
Santiago is
seen driving an Audi A8 and a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder in the movie.
The
final is played at the Bernabéu, Real Madrid's home stadium, as they are
one of the teams in the final, although this has happened in 1984 when AS Roma
faced Liverpool FC at their home ground at the Olimpico but this would be unlikely
to happen , since the venue for the Champions League final is decided years in
advance.
Raul is playing in the Champions League Final, but they show in the
beginning of the game that Guti was the captain.
Plot
The film starts at the beginning of the 2005/2006 season. Barcelona defeats Real Madrid by three goals in the Bernabéu, and Gavin Harris performs poorly in the Spanish league match. Santiago has attracted the interest of Real Madrid after his sensational performance in Newcastle last season and on deadline day he signs for them in a swap deal involving Michael Owen. Santi moves in with Roz who he is set to get married to. He makes his debut in a game against Greek side Olympiakos. With the game tied at 0-0 he comes off the bench to score the winning goal with a fantastic volley to the delight of the home crowd. Meanwhile his friend Gavin Harris is misfiring and has failed to score in 14 matches.
Roz soon has to head home to carry on her studies. Santi continues to impress at Real and the manager and director of Football are seen arguing of whether he should start. However life gets bad for Santi when his half brother turns up and shows him a picture of his mom. Santi's mom left his dad years ago and is now living in Spain with a new husband and a son. Enrique had learnt of this and went to tell Santi. Santi is freaked and drives off. From then on his life goes downhill. He makes his first start in a home game against Valencia and he is sent off after 5 minutes. He drowns his sorrows at a bar with Jordana Garcia (a journalist he met at Gavin's party).
Things get worse for Santi as he misses the team plane for the game against Rosenborg and he then starts falling out with Roz as he becomes more selfish and arrogant. He sacks his agent Glen Foy who had given him a chance in football. Meanwhile his friend Gavin Harris is scoring again but he loses his house and moves in with Santi. Santi gets injured while playing football with Gavin at home and his coach bans him from returning home for Christmas. Roz begins to think that Santiago is cheating on her.
For New Year's Eve, Gavin organizes a party which Jordana Garica is invited to. Jordana and Santi soon start kissing and the next scene shows Santiago telling Gavin that nothing happened when in fact they kissed. Santi tells Gavin about his brother but seems unable to find him. Enrique and Santi encounter each other again, and Santiago gives Enrique a ride home. After Santi drops Enrique off at home, Enrique quickly grabs Santi's duffel bag containing his warm ups and practice jersey. Santiago, unable to chase Enrique because of his injury, gets back into his car.
Enrique then steals Santi's car and Santi jumps in a cab and orders the Cab to pursue the car. Enrique crashes the car and Santi is interviewed by the police at the hospital where Enrique has been treated. A member of the paparazzi takes a picture of Santi and Santi strikes him, just as the police drag him off he finally sees his mum.
He spends the night in the jail before a member of the club rescues him, however things get worse a magazine shows Jordana and Santi kissing at the bar on New Years Eve. Roz yells at Santi over the phone. Meanwhile Santi finally finds his mom and they talk over what happened where his mom reveals she ran away because a man and Santi's uncle attacked her. Santi plays a game of football with his brother Enrique. He then phones Roz and apologizes for his behaviour. Roz is pregnant but Santi doesn't know.
Harris scores the winning goal against Barcelona in the Champions League. Real Madrid get past Lyon in the Champions League Semi-Finals by goals of Harris and Santi in the Santiago Bernabéu. They play Arsenal in the final and are trailing 1-0 at half time. Santi is brought on to play behind Gavin Harris. Arsenal however score again through Thierry Henry. They then miss a penalty and Gavin Harris pulls one back. Santi hits the bar before scoring himself in injury time and David Beckham scores a free kick to win Real the Champions League.
