In Goal

On Sunday morning, Lukas's team has no goalkeeper, and Max has never played football. A plastic pitch in the rain, a coach who uses the friendly you with everyone, a penalty, and a club. Say what you need, ask a friend if they can do something, say you can try, say it's raining and that it doesn't matter, give a score, and say when you're on air.

THE STORY

It's Sunday, half past ten, on a football pitch in the rain. Lukas's team has no goalkeeper, and the coach, Rolf, looks at Max. Max has never played football, but at school in Milwaukee he was a baseball catcher. This is the conversation you'll be able to say by the end of the lesson.
