Peter Crouch has a great smile, a warm personality, and a bittersweet story. I guess that's enough for a rating of 7 for That Peter Crouch Film (2023). On Amazon Prime.

Dream (드림 ) is the first film I've seen that puts some humor into what would be a typical sports drama about the Homeless World Cup. I enjoyed this Korean film

The Discovery+ docu "What Killed Maradona" (2020) describes Diego Maradona's excesses and lack of morals. But those traits were his super power.

On a mission to promote womens football ahead of next month’s WWC 2023, England Football and Disney put together a 4-min animation called Ella, a Modern Day Fairytale. Narrated by England WNT star Alex Scott, it is a Cinderella story where, instead of going to the ball, little Ella tries out for the local boys team.

From this article, i could not tell if this description of a new Stephen Chow soccer movie is a joke or not. Anyone know?

Despite its flaws, Shaolin Soccer is still one of my faves. ❤️

Equal Playing Field is an inspiring story and production. It made me want to run and swim a little further at the gym; it made me aspire to accomplish more.

The HBOMax series Headless Chickens (2023), aka Pollos sin cabeza, is brilliant in how it perceives humor in situations that normally would not be funny. I haven't had this much fun watching any other series about .

Cass (2008) is an absorbing drama based on Cass Pennant's memoir. More than any other of the hooligan movies I've watched, it gives a feeling for why do what they do. On Peacock.

While the acting is generally good, I agree with the Girls Gone Hallmark podcasters that A Winning Team is kind of boring. But watch it to support Asian and Canadian actors and crew.

A rare Arab soccer comedy, watch Red Card (2017) to experience the beginning of the Emirati film industry. But otherwise, this truncated 61-minute soccer comedy might not be worth your time.

The documentary Hugo Sanchéz: El Gol y la Gloria (2022) is so off the mark, I felt a little sorry for Senor Sanchéz. English title is Hugo Sanchez, the Goal and the Glory on Amazon Prime.

It is extraordinary, brave, and admirable that Robbie Lyle of Arsenal Fan TV is using his platform to stop racism in football. Watch Football Fans: Under Their Skin (2020) on Amazon Prime.

The fictional part of the 2022 Carlos Moreno series Goles en contra (The Final Score) caused me to rate this drama on Andrès Escobar a little lower. On Netflix.
