I have been a football (futbol, soccer, calcio, etc) fan all my life. Yet, with this documentary I learned or recalled things of the past in many unexpected different ways. The impact of football in the life of people and nations is remarkably well done and poignant. Chapter 1 and 2 grip your heart beyond the greatness of the sport itself, After the Rwanda genocide, grasping to this sport helped the healing of the nation. The catastrophic earthquake and the tsunami hitting Japan while the female soccer team was competing for the World Cup was also a remarkable approach to describe the strength of the sport providing some needed solace to the heart of the nation.
It is absurd for a reviewer who does not like football to criticize a sport he clearly does not understand (sounds like a troll). Stick to what you like and let the millions of fans who love soccer enjoy this very well done documentary.
