omarsnk I AM AT A LOSS FOR WORDS HOW BAD THIS MOVIE WAS. I WATCHED IT YEARS AGO & IT STILL LEAVES A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH. NEVER AGAIN!!

englandsoccerrules why would they say "to be continued" at the end of Goal 2 if they weren't going to continue it? This movie is absolutely terrible, if they were going to change things so much they should have just made a spin-off movie, which in reality they did. However, this had an introduction of plenty of new characters whose story lines were boring at best. Santiago Munez is barely even in the movie, and he's the series title character. I absolutely loved the first two and I could not wait for this one. What a a complete and utter disappointment! I wish I had never sought this film out to watch and I just left it at the cliffhanger that was Goal II's ending...

Sam Stevens Iv read some of the reviews and I agree with all. This movie almost has nothing to do about soccer(football) more about a love story. Yes it does have the world cup but you see more of Beckham play than you do the main stars. If you were expecting Santiago Munez going through issues then coming out on top in the end you have chosen the wrong movie for that. I loved the first two movies I'm a huge football fan but Kuno Becker (Santiago) plays so little of role (never see him touch a football) that its discussing to even call this the last movie of the trilogy. You expect at the least the star of the first two to have some kind of an impact on this movie but if you count up the speaking parts he has in this movie it comes out to be maybe around 10 minutes maybe less. From the first two movies this is 99% different. So if you couldn't tell I hate this movie and am very disappointed in this movie and only recommend this if you have some kind of stock in the publisher so you can get money out of it.

mkaide I'll leave it to Santi who says it best: "I've seen the movies and I know how easy it is to mess these things up..." Apologetic and he should be. Having seen 'Plan 9 from Outer Space', I scarcely believe this could have been worse had been directed by Ed Wood himself. Let's not mistake the preceding Goal films for classics, at best they felt as though they were written by a 10 year old with the sort of stilted dialogue that would give an episode of 'Footballer's Wives' an almost poetic feel, but only by comparison.This film has an abortive feel throughout. It's evident the makers lost credibility with the profession gatekeepers as there is nothing like the access the preceding films could boast. Cameos from Shearer, Casillas, Beckham and Ronaldo, etc are limply matched this time around against the glitz of the chuckle brothers Mike Ashley and Paul Kemsley and some of the worst green scene work you could ever come across.I could go on about Santiago's already cliché-ridden story being butchered by an even more soporific storyline involving two of the least interesting and sympathetic characters ever conceived. I could talk about how characters integral the trilogy are conspicuously absent (evidently some actors/actresses wanted to preserve some semblance of dignity out of this farce), the taxi driver who for some reason is in almost every scene, the Geordies who resemble Harry Enfield's Scousers (minus the humour). In any case those issues were posthumously examined by a 1001 other reviews before mine, and most likely reflective of the filmmakers, I really couldn't care less. This is absolute garbage and it really makes you wonder how anyone involved could really work again.
