J.C. United are a dream team. Even their mascot, Shoot the dog, can do headers and kicks. But will they be able to beat the ferocious Ricky’s Rockets?

In the five-aside tournament Jamie Cocker’s team – J.C.United – are playing in blue and white. Things are looking good in the first half and they’re beating Ricky’s Rockets three nil. But then things fall apart - Maxine Cole lets in a goal, William Storer’s boot flies off and Darren Paul goes off injured. The worst thing is, Jamie’s team hasn’t got a substitute…or has it?
