Keeper

An acclaimed soccer reporter is granted an interview with the goalie phenom, El Gato who is fresh off a World Cup win. The reporter expects a standard run of the mill interview, but is astounded with the story of El Gato's life. It is rife with poverty, hardship, and the magical intervention of an unlikely mentor.
