Game of Their Lives

Game of Their Lives

In the spirit or Remember the Titans, Miracle and The Rookie, The Miracle Match is the incredible story about the men behind one of the all-time greatest upsets in sports history.

Two weeks before the 1950 World Cup, a ragtag group of recreational soccer players from St. Louis and New York were chosen to represent the USA in Brazil. Consumed with conflicts – personal, cultural and playing styles – they have mere days to become a team.

And then they had to play the British, the best team in the world. Inspired by a newfound belief in the team, their passion and talent turned into pure magic on the field – and the unthinkable happened.

Filled with heart-stopping action, and featuring Patrick Stewart, this triumphant story is a rousing celebration of the human spirit, love of the sport and pride of country.
