The story begins with a father, Amadeo, telling his son a tale about a group of misfits who form a soccer team to take on the best players in the world. The team, led by Amadeo, consists of a group of eccentric individuals, including a strange boy, two old men, a police chief, a thief, and a granny.
They challenge the opposing team, led by a arrogant and conceited player known as "El Groso," to a game of soccer. Despite being the underdogs, Amadeo's team shows determination and heart, and with the help of some magical foosball players, they manage to tie the game 2-2.
In the end, El Groso scores a goal, winning the game, but instead of celebrating, the crowd remains silent, and El Groso is left feeling unhappy and unappreciated. The story concludes with Amadeo's son questioning the validity of the tale, only to discover that the magical foosball players are real.
The story ends with the father and son watching the foosball players play, and it is revealed that the townspeople, inspired by the bravery of Amadeo's team, decide to relocate to a new city, founded by the members of the team.
