United’s under-twelves 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 behaviour 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?

This book is a really good read. It is about a boy called Tomasz who loves playing for United but there is a boy in the team who is bullying him and spoiling his time with the team. I liked all the twists and that the author made everything really come to life.

This story is about the goal keeper - Thomasz Bobik. He is Polish. His favourite team is Legia Warsaw. I would recommend this book to someone else.

I liked this book because Tomas goes back to his home country to play football and meets a famous goalkeeper that plays for Poland. I would recommend this book.
