there haven not be too many engage football film . in fact and bar possibly bend it like beckham and the recent art house flick zidane and there have be precisely nil . goal 2 be unlikely to add to that total and it be an update of last year goal in which kuno becker santiago munez be award the chance of a lifetime albeit one that involve him abandon his life in los angeles in order to pursue a career at newcastle united rather than follow his father into the lawn maintenance business . he and you would not be too surprised to learn and succeed unlike pretty much every real player who have sign to the side in recent year . so successful have he be that and when he rejoin him in goal 2 live the dream and he have turn his back on the underachieving geordie and be snap up by real madrid and where he join up with guest star david beckham and raul . and while neither have be sign up for their acting skill and the same could also be say of rutger the hitcher hauer and who play real madrid manager rudi van der merwe with all the conviction and passion of a man who long abandon hope of a career in hollywood . on the strength of goal 2 and the chance of becker have a long career be equally slight and sadly . still and becker love interest anna friel be fine and while the action scene be notably more impressive than anything in escape to victory and not to mention st james park .
