Synopsis
Football has come to Ankh-Morpork – not the old fashioned, grubby pushing and shoving, but the new, fast football with pointy hats for goalposts. And now, the wizards of Unseen University must win a football match, without using magic. The prospect of the Big Match draws in an urchin with a wonderful talent for kicking a tin can, a maker of jolly good pies, a dim but beautiful young woman, who might just turn out to be the greatest fashion model, and the mysterious Mr Nutt. As the match approaches, four lives are entangled and changed for ever. Because the thing about football is that it is not just about football.
Here we go! Here we go! Here we go!
