Home Team. 1998 Allan A Goldstein.

Some may regard this infantile footie flick to be one Mighty Duck up, but not I. Ex-Soccer hero (Steve Guttenberg), now disgraced degenerate gambler is given a shot at redemption by being the gruff handyman/footie coach at a deprived kids school sounds wretched, perhaps it is, but, in truth, aren't we all just a little bit wretched sometimes? The inevitably fuzzy wuzzy conclusion is no valid reason to dislike it, but Guttenberg's boorish comedy antics just might be! The weird guy playing the kooky funeral director did all the proper big boy acting.
Guttenballs or Guttengoofy, YOU decide!!!!!! 

 "Let's learn some soccer!"
As recommended by recently disgraced B-blogger Mahnfahrt Panzerflesh.
