To ensure the corrupt football team Markaz Shabab Kafr Moanad loses its next match, Captain Hossam (played by Akram Hosny) comes up with a unique strategy to make sure the team is either unable to play or guaranteed to lose. This fulfills the first request of the spirit of Captain Ihab Nasr (Omar Sharqi).
Here are the golden rules Akram Hosny gave the team:
• Forget everything you ever learned about football and start from scratch.
• Training breaks should last nine hours.
• Love what you do—so you can fail at what you love and do.
• The striker must touch the ball with his hand inside the competitor's penalty area.
• Aged Roumy cheese should be placed in the corners and the penalty box to get rid of VAR.
• The playing tactics? 5-6-4 using the Tic-Tac-Tok strategy.
• The pre-match meal: a bomb (spicy dish) and a fatty meat mix.
• No carbs, no water, no bread allowed.
• No fixed schedules for waking up or training.
• A long night out before match day is a must.
