I was carrying bricks on a construction site. Nobody knew I used to be a youth academy prodigy striker. Until one day the site had no water or power, and I kicked a beer bottle cap — from ten meters away, right on target. A female scout walking by almost fainted. She asked me: Have you played football? I wiped my sweat: When I was a kid. She said: Come with me. I thought she was a scammer. But she actually took me to a pro team for a trial. The coach watched me kick two balls, laughed: You call this football? Go back to carrying bricks. The whole team was laughing at me. Then the starting striker got injured mid-game. No subs left. The coach said: Fine, you go on. I scored three goals in nineteen minutes. The whole stadium went silent. Watch free on Palmbox.
