Synopsis
Majid (Abakar Chene Massar) duels his own coach (Ousman Adoum) for the heart of team president's daughter Faiza (Nadech Ngaryo). Faiza, an avid football fan herself, makes her intentions clear: she will be devoted to one and one only.
Majid is almost sidelined in the town championship game but manages to lead his team to victory. His dream of playing international football is matched in intensity only by a budding relationship with Faiza and the upcoming academic exams that will determine his future. All is at stake, however, when local drugs threaten to throw Majid into a downward spiral.[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1391623/synopsis 'Le Plerin de Camp Nou synopsis'] The Internet Movie Database (IMDB)
