Soll Andy Lattes Team einen Spion losschicken, der die gegnerische Mannschaft heimlich beobachtet? Oder soll sich Torwart Schubi ein Maskottchen ins Tor stellen? Für Abwehrchef Walle ist die Lösung klar: Nur die Abseitsfalle wird den Klosterbergern den Sieg bescheren. Doch der Trainer hält es für zu riskant, so kurz vor einem so entscheidenden Spiel etwas Neues einzuüben. Ob Walle und seine Abwehrkameraden gut daran tun, die Falle trotzdem heimlich zu trainieren? Bei allen offenen Fragen merken die Spieler: Fußballer müssen nicht nur flinke Ballkünstler, sondern auch standhafte Persönlichkeiten sein.

Als Kreismeister der D-Jugend fährt der SV Klosterberg zum ersten Auswärtsspiel der bezirksweiten Superrunde. Dieses Spiel ist sehr wichtig für Andy und seine Freunde. Doch an der Bahnlinie, die direkt am Sportgelände des Gegners vorbeiführt, entdecken sie etwas noch viel wichtigeres.

Wer könnte den Brand im Sportheim gelegt haben? Der Trainer und Polizist Holger Beiersdorf geht der Frage noch einmal nach. Da taucht ein Mann auf, der sich für dieselbe Frage interessiert.

Andys Zwillingsschwester Lona hört mit, wie drei Jungen einen hinterhältigen Plan schmieden. Sie schafft es allerdings nicht, dem Trainer alles mitzuteilen. Da fasst sie einen verzweifelten Entschluss, der für einigen Wirbel beim gerade laufenden Turnier sorgt.

Die Mannschaft von Andy Latte muss ein Sondertraining einlegen und das bedeutet: Viel Fußball - und einiges über Fairness! Glück für Andy und seine Klosterberger D-Jugend: Das vom Schiedsrichter abgebrochene Meisterschaftsspiel gegen FC Braunborn wird wiederholt. "Glück"? Klosterberg lag deutlich zurück und kam mit der harten Spielweise des Gegners gar nicht zurecht. Da muss sich also etwas tun. Trainer Holger Beiersdorf und Vater Ludwig Latte schöpfen aus ihrem Erfahrungsschatz - und trimmen die Mannschaft für dieses Spiel ganz besonders.

Repetir um movimento várias e várias vezes ajuda a clarear a mente–uma lição que Finley aprendeu muito cedo, nas quadras de basquete. Numa cidade comandada pela violência do tráfico e da máfia irlandesa, vestir a camisa 21 e dar o sangue em quadra é sua válvula de escape. Vinte e um também é o número da camisa de Russ, um gênio do basquete. Ou pelo menos era. Recém-chegado à cidade de Bellmont depois de ter a vida virada de cabeça para baixo por uma tragédia, a última coisa que ele quer é pegar de novo numa bola.
