00:00 See that moment when he got it, he just...
00:02 Kevin!
00:03 Jason, Alba, Cal, Nathan, come through!
00:07 We've got a table ready.
00:09 Oh, new face.
00:12 Very nice face.
00:13 We're gonna win the cup!
00:15 If we had a striker like you...
00:24 We do have a striker.
00:25 But you're not like him, you're more like you.
00:28 It's coming up for six. Is everyone sorted for tonight?
00:30 You know, you have to call and check in before six if you're staying.
00:33 I have booked.
00:34 Yeah, me too.
00:35 Yep, I have.
00:35 Good.
00:37 I'm gonna go see my mum.
00:38 Yeah, but you're still gonna need somewhere to stay.
00:41 So, the football competition's street soccer,
00:54 four a side, really fast,
00:56 some excellent players, all homeless.
01:00 Homeless?
01:01 Yeah, all homeless.
01:03 It's called the Homeless World Cup.
01:06 There'll be players coming to Rome from all over the world.
01:09 From Cape Town to Copenhagen.
01:15 Some great athletes,
01:17 some who can barely kick a ball.
01:18 Makes no difference.
01:19 When that ball goes in...
01:21 Everyone goes crazy.
01:26 Sam, Sam.
01:27 You're coming with us to Rome.
01:32 You're going to represent South Africa.
01:34 You're going to win this thing.
01:36 And every player has a story to tell.
01:38 Heartbreaking, unexpected, thrilling stories.
01:43 And they tell those stories in one great, universal language.
01:54 And that's football.
01:56 People who've fallen through the cracks,
02:00 lost their way, their pride, their dreams.
02:03 This competition brings us all together.
02:05 It's an opportunity, a second chance to be part of a team.
02:10 This lot are England's best players.
02:23 And they're going to Rome.
02:25 Get stuck in?
02:32 Wear this for luck.
02:34 Get stuck in.
02:37 Get stuck in.
02:45 You should come with us instead of her.
02:47 Honestly, I think you're the best football player I've ever seen.
02:50 Except on the tally.
02:53 Do you think that I'm...
02:54 You're a great striker.
02:55 We've got a great striker.
02:57 Namely me.
02:58 Mal picked all of us.
02:59 I don't qualify.
03:00 Because this is the Homeless World Cup.
03:02 And I am not homeless.
03:05 Sorry.
03:11 We just assumed.
03:14 Yeah, well, I've got a car, a job.
03:16 What job?
03:18 Logistics.
03:20 Good luck, yeah?
03:22 Embarrassing, that.
03:24 You thought he was homeless.
03:26 He's just a bit of a twat.
03:28 We're still England, though.
03:32 Best team in the world.
