Football Academy: The Real Thing

by Tom Palmer

United's under-12s are in Poland for a tournament. Goal-keeper Tomasz is very excited to be playing in his home country, but team captain Ryan thinks Poland are rubbish--in fact, he thinks everything Polish is rubbish. Ryan's behavior causes trouble both on and off the pitch. Can Ryan and Tomasz tackle their differences--or will Ryan's bullying foul United's chance of success?
