I'm glad you

made it. -Thanks.

Come on, Kate!

Let's go, Kate! Come

on, let's go, Big Green!

And as we head to half, the score

is 2-0, in favor of the Knights.

OK, gentlemen, half time.

We're halfway through the

game we've been building for.

We're halfway there. We're

not all the way there.

The time to gloat is

soon upon the horizon.

I look at the scoreboard and I see

a score that tells me 2-nothing.

We're not there yet. This may be the

most important game you'll ever play.

It certainly is the most

important moment of your lives,

and I want you all to

remember one important thing.

Don't mess it up.

What've you got? -Goat!

What've you got? -Goat!

What are we? -Goats!

So what do you say to a goat?

Barbecue! Barbecue!

Everyone OK? -Yeah.

All right. Tom's gonna

be here any minute.

If he's not here in

a minute, why bother?

You guys are doing

great. Trust me.

2-0? -Better

than 17-0.

Hey, I'm having fun.

-That's all that matters.

All right, guys, half

time's over. Let's go.

Come on, let's go, Big Green!

-One, two, three, go Big Green!

And here we go with the

start of the second half.

The Knights" Shannon Rinn

will take the kick - off.

Goal kick, Big Green.

Watch out, Larry! Watch

him over there! Come on!

Control that ball!

There we are! There we are!

Come on, y'all.

Let's do it again!

Call a foul!

Number 14. Tak Yamato. Collides

with number 8. Buddy Abbey.

This could be a foul.

Ten minutes till curtains.

Maybe, but you're a whole

lifetime away from having a brain.

It looks like we

have an injury.

All right, come

on, clear, clear.

Hey, give me some room here, come

on, come on. The boy needs to breathe.

Which leg is it, huh?

Broken? Broken? -No,

I don't think so.

No? No. All right.

I hope he's all right.

I'm sure he's all right.

Cookie! -Hey, hey.

Look who's here!

He found him!

Oh, my gosh! Brenda,

he's here! -He's here!

Juan! Juan!

And it seems we

have a late arrival.

Number 10. listed on the

roster as Juan Morales.

Kate, I came back to beat these

guys! -You didn't say goodbye.

Don't be mad. I wanted to. -Well,

next time you go, say goodbye.

Next time I go, I'll

just take you with me.

Juan!

Hey, found 'em

outside Garretville.

It looked like a

good place to hide,

but he's already got a better

plan... -Already got them a lawyer.

Tom's gonna be my sponsor.

Well, I figure if I'm gonna be

living in a little town like Elma,

I gotta get good

people there with me.

What's that, huh? What's that?

Come on, come on, delay of game!

Come on, call it!

-Take it easy, Coach.

Hey, listen, what am

I? Card 'em! Card 'em!

They shouldn't be on

the field like that!

Coach, are those your

assistants back there?

Yeah.

You might wanna tell one

of them to start warming up.

Am I the luckiest man

in the world, or what?

Just when I need a decent

ref, I get a comedian.

A comedian! Well, thank you.

Whoever did that

for me, thank you.

Oh, man, what a

day. What a day.

Oh, so you made it, Coach.

Yeah, I had to pick up the

last member of my team, Jay.

I thought everybody qualified

to be here was already here.

Everyone qualifies. And

so do their families.

Hey... Now we got

ourselves a real game.

Ugh. Has anyone

seen my mother?

The Knights" number 8. Buddy

Abbey. Is OK. Rlay will resume.

And it looks like we have a

substitution for the Big Green.

Replacing number 11. Jeffrey Luttrell.

Will be number 10. Juan Morales.

Ball knocked out by the Big

Green. Knights" throw in.

Kicked out by goalie Stoia. And a

magnificent header by Juan Morales.

Control it!

Rossession changes. Superb play

by Big Green number 85. Newt Shaw.

Pick your man!

Morales to Kate Douglas. She passes

back. They"re going in to the net.

Nick Anderssen now has the

ball. He takes a shot. Goal!

It"s now Knights 2. Big Green 1.

With only minutes left in the game.

Come on, where are my

Knights? Where's the defense?

Knights take the kick - off.

We"re in the final minute of play.

Big tackle from Juan Morales.

Big Green now has the ball.

We have just ten seconds

left in this game!

Juan Morales is going

for the goal with

only five seconds

remaining in the game!

He shoots. Goal! Goal!

With three seconds left on the clock.

Juan Morales scored the tying shot!

You guessed it! We have a tie!

The Big Green battles back!

Ladies and gentlemen. Don"t go

anywhere. This game is not over!

The Big Green is going nuts!

The Knights are stunned!

It is a tie! Big

Green 2. Knights 2.

You all rock! What a game!

Regulation game has ended in a tie.

There's not gonna be any overtime.

We're gonna go straight

to penalty kicks.

OK, what we got here is

called a shoot-out, all right?

Five members from each team

are gonna run on to the field,

each one's gonna take a

shot against the goalie.

So Juan'll kick five times? -No,

each player can only kick once.

Right. But Juan,

you're going first.

Mm-hm. -Go

get 'em.

Then Kate. -OK.

Then, uh... Nick. -All right.

Then Sophia.

-Mm-hm.

Uh-huh.

OK, I need a volunteer

for the last position.

I'll do it.

I don't think so, Newt.

-Why? I got a great kick.

And I'm not afraid.

What do you

think? -I'm little.

I'm low to the ground. I

got power. I got the moves.

I'm your man.

You got the job, big guy. -All

right, you guys are the greatest!

Time-out.

Time-out.

Now that we know who's kicking,

who's gonna play goalie? I'm not!

You guys know about my problem.

They turn into monsters.

Larry, listen...

If you see them and

they become monsters,

just become part of the

nightmare and join in.

Turn yourself into a

monster and fight back.

I'll try. -All right.

You can do it, son!

Now you all played a great

game. If you do miss your shots,

you run back to that center circle

with your heads held high, got it?

Got it! Let's go!

Are you all proud

of yourselves? -Yeah!

Good! We're proud

of you. -All right!

Come on! -Let's go.

One, two, three!

Go, Big Green!

Larry, want my goggles?

They get rid of fear.

I'll try anything.

Knights, OK.

And the Knights win the

toss and elect to go first.

First up for the Knights,

number 7, Robert Bishop.

Come on, Larry, come on. Buddy,

hang in there! Hang in there!

And it"s good. The score is

1-0 in favor of the Knights!

What a shoot-out.

-It's all right, Larry.

Up next, number

10, Juan Morales.

He scored the equalizer.

Can he do it again?

He does! The score is tied.

One round. 1-1!

The second kicker for the

Knights is number 2. Shannon Rinn.

It"s in. It"s in there!

The Knights now lead 2-1.

Darn!

Up for the Big Green.

Number 13. Kate Douglas.

Come on, let's

go, Kate! Let's go!

It"s good! It"s in! The score is

now tied. Knights 2. Big Green 2.

Up next for the Knights.

Anthony Atkinson.

That's it, it's in!

3-2 for the Knights!

Up next for the Big Green.

Number 9. Sophia Convertino.

Come on, Sophie.

It"s good! What a crazy game!

We"re still tied here in Austin!

There are only two
