Synopsis

The plot concerns identical twin brothers who love soccer, but whose team plays badly. When the twins' dad, who's also the coach of their team, has to go away on a business trip, the twins' mother acts as the coach until their dad comes back. Unfortunately, she's not as good at soccer as her husband is, and the twins' soccer team soon starts getting made fun of for having a woman as their coach. In response, the twins set out to find a different coach for their soccer team.

They find that a local mechanic named Rudy, who saves them from getting run over by a car, is an excellent soccer player, and want him to help their mom coach their soccer team. It later turns that "Rudy" is actually George Patrick Owens, a famous professional soccer player from Ireland. With George helping the twins' mom coach the team, they and their soccer team embark on the road to a championship for their local soccer league (which they do end up winning).
