Tudd meg, hogy ez a nagyon tehetséges szélső hogyan tett szert ilyen technikai tudásra, miért tud így cselezni, ilyen flikflakokat bemutatni, miért ennyire látványos a játéka, és hogyan volt képes arra, hogy mindössze 21 évesen győztes gólt szerezzen a Bajnokok Ligája fináléjában. 3 millió eladott példány világszerte!

A Londonban élő, 13 éves Ethan világa a foci körül forog. A baráti kispályás meccseken a középpálya professzoraként irányítja csapatát. Titkos vágya, hogy egy nap imádott klubja, a Hurricanes profi játékosaként fusson ki a gyepre, hirtelen valósággá válhat, amikor váratlanul próbajátékra hívja az egyesület. A csapat közben egyre gyanúsabb körülmények között menetel a kupában, ami a fair play szellemében rendületlenül hívő Ethannak is feltűnik. Pláne, amikor kiderül, hogy a titkosszolgálat is csalást sejt a háttérben. Vajon tényleg sötét erők állnak csapata sikersorozata mögött? Gyanút fog-e Ethan családja, hogy a fiú kettős életet él? Ki az a rejtélyes, baseballsapkás alak, aki a pálya széléről lesi főhősünket? És miért üldözi egy taxisofőr? Ethanra két "meccs" is vár: az egyik hazai pályán - vagyis focistaként -, a másik idegenben - vagyis a kémkedés számára teljesen ismeretlen, de éppoly izgalmas terepén. Lehetetlen küldetésnek tűnik... de létezik ilyen Ethan számára? 10+
