Goal! Hey!

All right, then. All right, then.

Nimrod!

No more football.
No more talking about football.

No more thinking about football.

But, Dad!

At the end of this week,

when you've done all of your homework
and pass your exams,

then maybe football.

-Passed it?
-Passed it.

It's impossible.

Then no more football.

But, Dad, it's not fair.

You're right, Nimrod. It's not fair.

But there is a world
outside the football pitch.

And in it, nothing is fair.

It's not right.

Nimrod, please.

Pass your exams and you will be able
to put everything right.

Eitan.

You are the greatest.

You are the greatest.

Oh, Eitan, you are the greatest.

You're not too old.

I am sure.

I don't think you were hard on him.

Did I say I was hard on him?

It's not what you're saying,
it's how you look.

I don't look anything.

Look how quiet the boy is now,
doing his homework.

Shall I take him something to drink?

The boy is quiet for once,
so let him work.

And why did you go
and promise to take him to Tel Aviv

to see this Eitan's last match.

If he studied and passed
his exams, I promised.

Eitan is nothing
but a distraction to children.

Wow.

-Mmm!
-Can I come in?

No.

-I, uh, I got kind of held up last night.

Who does your car belong to?

I expect you'd be
kind of held up. It's mine.

-Yours?
-Mm-hmm.

Wow. How'd you get it?

Did you sleep? Did you eat?

I think you need a shower.

All right, I need a shower.

Nira. Nira, how did you pay for the car?

Well, I… I work, Eitan.

The gallery sells it, and I buy cars.

It's called economics, you know.

And it's not your best subject.

Did you have an argument last night?
Oh, for God's sake, take a shower.

Uh, we talked. That's all. We talked.

-But it's a very beautiful car, Nira.
-Couldn't you find a phone?

Look, I forgot, all right?

I forgot. I forgot.
I'm sorry. I said I'm sorry.

It's all right, it's all right.
I don't mind. I got much work done.

-Hi, Menachem.
-Hi, Eitan.

-Working like a slave, are you?
-Of course.

-She's keeping you at it, is she?

All right.
It's still a very beautiful car, Nira.

So you said, Eitan, and you need a shower.

So you said, Nira.

Uh, can I have a drive in it?

-Can I drive it?
-Have your shower first.

Can I use yours?

-Who wants it?
-Has it got electric windows?

Yes, yes, it's got electric windows.
Now go and wash yourself. You stink.

Great, great. Great.

What's going to happen to him, Menachem?

Everybody's worried
about Eitan except Eitan.

You're right.

Maybe I should start worrying
about myself.

Listen, tomorrow you will have
your first exhibition.

It'll be a big success.

Nira?

-Come on, Nira.
-Will you finish that one for me?

He's the best center-forward
in the world!

Eitan should be pensioner!

Yeah, he should be pensioner!

-You'll miss him when he's gone.
-Yeah, they'll miss him.

Just because Nimrod thinks
Eitan is the king.

-Look at you, you shite!
-Yeah, you shite!

-Eitan's last match. What a joke!
-What a joke!

If hope it's his last match,
I really hope.

I don't believe not Eitan's last match!

He's the greatest.
He's still the greatest.

Because you say so?

Where's the ball?

Yeah, where's the ball?

You know what I think?
I think you're a lousy footballer.

He's not, he's not a lousy footballer.
That's a lie.

No, no, Eldad. Let him speak.

That old joke Eitan should retire.

Let go… of me.

Wait till I get you home.

I will teach you a lesson.
I will teach you.

Couple of drinks
with a couple of friends.

Now, what's so terrible?

-Did you pay?
-With what?

Of course, thinking never pays.

That's right. Who's the king?

So, you're finally abdicating.

Tell me, Eitan.

Did any of your drinking friends
offer you something?

They offered me another drink.
What do you mean offer?

All right.
I'll use a filthy expression. A job.

I've got a job.
I've got to manage the team.

It's a three-year contract.

It's the biggest deal
in football history, Nira.

Yes. In this country.

I'll be rich.
I can buy you a car. How much?

Who's competing, Eitan?

I waited half the night for you.

Only half the night?
What happened in the other half?

What's it got to do with you?

Of course. You work. You work too hard.
You ought to play more.

Well, then, you play too much.

You don't even train seriously.

Even now, your last match
and what are you doing?

You're drinking. You're not sleeping.
You're falling down. I don't understand.

This kind of thing was all right when you
were the wild boy of football,

-but now--
-Well, am I not wild enough for you?

Who's the king, Nira?

Eitan, I just don't want you to be
a worn-out ex-football king. That's all.

Not for me. For you.

Oh, Nira. How many times?
I've got a contract.

And who's worn out?

I've heard about that contract
for a long time.

Have they signed at last?

I'm going to build
an international class football team.

Supposing they don't sign.

They will, Nira.
They will, they will, they will.

Oh. This is too easy, Eitan.

Now look, Eitan.

I'm not just hospital you come to
when you need cleaning up

and feeding and putting to bed.

Please, try to think about it.

What are you going to do
if they don't sign?

-They promised.
-For three years?

They promised!

Why didn't they sign before?

Because all the clubs were short of money.

-And suddenly they're not?
-Well, suddenly, they got it somewhere.

-From where?
-Somewhere!

From where? It's a lot of money.

-They've got it.
-How do you know?

Because they told me.

They've been telling you for three years,

and every season you go back
and play your last match.

And you go back
and you go back and you go back.

You can't go on forever!

I am not going on forever!
I am not going on!

And supposing they let you down?
What are you going to do?

They won't. They can't.

-They did before!
-That was different.

-How? How? How? How?
-How? How? How? Why? Why? Why?

Christ, you're like a wasp,
a nagging wasp!

-I am not nagging!
-What are you doing now but nagging?

-I am trying to make you understand.
-Don't try to make me anything.

I'm me. I'm alive. I'm happy.

Don't make me
into one of those brass dummies of yours.

Oh, look, if I've gotta get job,
I'll get a job.

I've got a million friends.

-Friends?
-Friends.

-Who?
-Friends, friends.

-For cheering.
-All right.

-For drinking.
-All right.

But not for jobs!

Oh.

Don't play tomorrow, Eitan.

Don't play tomorrow.

What are you talking about?

You give it up.

Give it all up.

Try something new,
be someone new, like-like you say.

-Do it. Do it now.
-Nira, you can't mean it.

I do. I-I… I do mean it.

You don't understand. They need me!

-But you don't need them.
-They need me! They need me!

You can't just turn your back
and walk away from someone who needs you.

I need to see
him playing his last match

It's always his last match.

-In many cases, financial--
-I'm going.

-It's an expensive business.
-I said I'm going!

Who's arguing? I only asked how.

Eldad.

After the match…

-I'm leaving.
-What? Leaving?

This country's no country for footballers.

Look at Eitan.

He's the best center-forward in the world.

Do they ever send him out anywhere?

He's very old, you know.
Maybe 35. Maybe even more.

They hate any good footballer here.

Where will you go?

Maybe Italy. Maybe Brazil.

How will you finance this operation?

I'm selling… everything.

Next!

It really hurts me to part with this.

Does it kill?

If you hit someone
over the head with it, it kills.

-Not worth a fart. How much?
-Three pounds.

-Nah.
-Name your price.

-One pound.
-It's a deal.

Next!

Look, you, I'm doing you a favor.
And you're moaning.

You know what? The deal's off.

Doesn't it need a lens in it?

Not if it's a really good camera,
it doesn't.

Oh.

-Hey!
-Yeah?

Don't tell anyone
you got such a good bargain.

Okay.

Next!

Nimrod.

My life's savings.

No, you keep it.

I want you to have it. Please.

Thanks.

You'll pay it back?

-Sometime.
-Double.

I don't want double. Just bank rate.

-You've got it.
-It's a deal.

Well…

thanks.

I'll see you to the roof.

Better not.

Goodbye, Nimrod!

It makes a difference
if someone believes in you.

I know!

How did you do it?

Darling, I must talk to you.
Nira. Nira, come on.

Sorry. Come. Nira.

Yes.

Darling, what a success.
I'm having such fun.

Yes, I can see that.

They want an exhibition.
Paris, London, New York.

Look, Teddy, not here.
I can't talk about this now.

-Yes, it is a bit of a madhouse, isn't it?
-What did you expect?

-Shall I come to the studio?
-Yes. Okay, tomorrow.

-Oh, no.
-It's good, yeah? You like it?

-Yes. Yes.
-You like it?

-Very.
-Excuse me a sec.

-Hey, Eitan.
-Ah, Yasha.

-You become an art collector?
-Not when I can collect the artist.

-What an artist, eh?
-Yeah.

Come on. Let's get out of here.

-A rich art collector like me…
-Ow!

…doesn't have to take all this rubbish.

Anyway, I got a real piece of art
I want you to see. Come on.

Nira's exhibition seems
to be a great success.

Fantastic, especially with statues
she used to make for laughs.

Yeah, the secret is
to get someone to pay a lot.

Well, how come
she isn't laughing anymore?

-She's frightened.
-Frightened for what?

For you, for her. For both of you.

Well, if she's like that now, Yash,
what is she gonna be like in the future?

Future? Do me a favor, Eitan. What future?

I got my contract with the club.

Peanuts. You had a fortune
in your feet for years.

And who gets it? The club and the pundit.

-Well, I'm happy.
-And Nira?

The statues she used to make for laughs,
they're making her rich.

And what about the game
you played for laughs?

-Is that making you rich?
-Oh, come on, Yasha. I'm an amateur.

Like Nira, become a professional.

Lose the match.

Lose the match?

What are the odds against you losing?
I'll tell you, 4-to-1.

Oh, don't start getting clever
with me, Yasha.

Start getting clever with yourself, boy.
We can make a fortune, you and me.

Anyone taking bets against you losing
can find a thousand takers.

Lose for my club?

You've spent your life
winning for your club.

And what have they given you?
Nothing but promises.

So now the club loses and you, Eitan,
become a first-time winner.

I'll see you around, Yasha.

You like Nira's new car?

That's taking her right out of your life,
boy, out for good.

But if you had that car,
you could go with her.

Only you'd be in the driving seat.

It's yours as a down payment,
and I'll find you a job.

-Think about it, Eitan.
-I've thought about it, Yasha.

It's funny. She's going up
just as you're coming down.

Look, Yasha, I won't lose the match.
I won't lose Nira.

In fact, I won't lose anything
I want to keep.

Keep? Keep? Don't make me laugh.

You can't keep yourself in chewing gum,

let along Nira
and stardom to which she's going.

I mean, face it, Eitan,
you can't afford her.

She's gone.

Like everything else in your life,
you've left it too late.

-Nira?
-Yes?

Marry me. Will you marry me, Nira?
Will you… Will you marry me?

Oh, Eitan, please.
You've had years to propose to me.

Must you ask me now
in the middle of the night?

I want to know.

I'm asking you
a straightforward, simple question.

No, it isn't.

-What do you mean, "It isn't"?
-Well, it isn't.

Answer me.

Answer me. Answer me.

What's wrong?
Are you sure you're all right?

I just asked you for something.

Now, will you give it to me?

Please, Nira, will you give it to me now?

But why suddenly?

Suddenly?

I've just thought of it.

Eitan.

Eitan.

Where is Eitan?

It's getting late.

Eitan! Come on the field.

Come on the field.

-Eitan, come on the field.
-Eitan.

Let's go. Make it now.
Let's practice.

Wow.

Do you want it now
or do you want to save it for tonight?

Do it now.

Eitan! Eitan! Eitan! Eitan!

Eitan! Eitan! Eitan!

Hey, by the way, the committee wants
to see you after the practice.

That's great. Hah. That's great.

Great, great.

Great, great.

Great.

Goal!

Eitan. Come in, come in. Sit down.

-Make yourself comfortable.
-Some tea? Some coffee?

-Something to eat, Eitan?
-Cigar, Eitan?

Take a cigar from the Canary Islands.
Better than Havana.

Please relax, everybody.
Don't spill the tea on the table.

No, no. Thank you, thank you.
Thank you very much. Nothing.

I… I just… I just want to see the
contract. That's all.

The contract?
There's no problem with the contract.

-There is no problem at all.
-I didn't say there was a problem with it.

Well, I just want to-- I just want
to hold it, I want to touch it.

You know, Eitan.

This is a wonderful moment for all of us.

Thank you, thank you very much, but, uh…

-Listen, could I-- Could I just touch it?
-Now listen, Eitan. Let me finish, please.

Today, we are going to make sure

that this man, who has been the team,
stays with the club.

So here it is, Eitan. A contract for life.

For life?

That's great. Fantastic. Fantastic.

A pen, quickly. A pen.

Here it is, Eitan.

For life? Wow.

Did you think
we would offer you anything less?

Uh, uh, uh, ex-excuse me a second.

It doesn't say what I'm supposed to do.

You are on expenses for life, Eitan.

Yes, but doing what?

We'll find something for you.

Find something?

But I'm supposed to develop

a first-class international football team
for the club.

That's what you said. That's what I want.

I mean, not… not this.

Someday, maybe, but meanwhile…

-No, no.
-Listen, Eitan,

to be a manager is an entire profession.

No, no. Definitely no.

-Be sensible.
-No!

Listen, Eitan, you are unique.

We are trying to create
a unique position for you.

It hasn't been easy.

You are not adaptable.

So please help us.

We had to raise the money
to make this offer.

But I'm more than just a footballer.

I mean, I've got a future in the game,
haven't I?

Well? Haven't I?

I mean, I have.

Haven't I?

How did it go?

Fantastic. Great.

Everything's all right?

Yeah. It's great, great.

Where'd you go?

Oh, nowhere.

Nowhere.

Let's go nowhere together.

Only I've got a million things to do.

-I mean, you know I've got a lot to do.
-Yes.

Okay then.
Call me in the middle of the night.

Okay.

Hey, kid.

Wanna come for a drive in my car?

Wow.

-Where are you going, kid?
-Brazil.

Did you say Brazil?

Come on, where are you going?

This is a lousy country for footballers.

Ha-ha. How would you know that?

I'm a footballer.

What's this about Brazil?

It's a good country for footballers.

It is?

The best.

Well, maybe
I should come with you.

Why not? You could be a manager.

Ah. Ha-ha. You know it, I know it.

But do they know it?

-Sure, they do.
-They do?

Look at the records.

Ah, they get used to it.

Sometimes they take it for granted.

That game you played against Belgium
in 1951, that second goal.

The '51 game? You weren't even born then.

I read about it. It's all in the records.

And you used the same tactics
as in the Romania match.

Oh, boy, that game. Yeah, yeah.

What a pity you missed that.

That goal on the 45th minute
of the second half.

No, no. 38th minute.

-Forty-fifth.
-Thirty-eighth.

-Forty-fifth.
-The 38th.

-Forty-fifth.
-Thirty-eighth.

Forty-fifth!

-You sure?
-I'm certain.

Ah…

Is… Is it really your last match?

Ah, I suppose there has to be a last one.

I suppose so.

Come on, come on.

-Come on, come on. Let's get going, fella.

-Come on, come on.

Get that car moving, fella.

-Come on.

Shut up! Women drivers.

Have a look to see what's wrong.

Eitan!

You're Eitan, aren't you?

Of course it is, fool.

You're gonna lose tonight!
You're gonna lose!

He's gonna win tonight! Right?
You're gonna win!

-All right, that's all right.

You can't win them all.
You can't win them all.

Shut up!

Shut up! Shut up!

Get out of here! Get out of here!

Hey, relax. It's part of the game.

-Right?
-Okay.

I think this, uh… this car's had it.

-I guess so.
-Okay, let's go, huh?

Hey, fellas, let's get him!

Stop! Stop!

Shut up or I'll box your ears!

Relax. It's part of the game.

Come on, Eitan.

Well, this is my bank.

Wow.

Hah. I've got to go in and see my manager.

I've got a lot of business
to attend to, you know?

Wanna buy yourself an ice cream?

-No.
-Why not?

Strict training.

Ah. I forgot, of course.

Well, uh, have a nice trip to Brazil
and enjoy the match. Good luck.

Well, good luck to you.

-Thank you. Bye.
-Bye.

Overdraft? Well, how can you secure
such an overdraft?

-Secure?
-Yes.

Well, what about my car?

Car? No, Eitan. Eitan, we need
something substantial for the board.

Something more substantial than a car.

I'm sorry, Eitan.
I would love to help you but I can't.

-Well, I-I…
-You see, the board of the bank--

I must admit that my car
is anything but substantial.

Tell me, Eitan,
why do you want to borrow money?

This, as you know,
this is a very expensive--

This is a very expensive business.

Why do I want to borrow money?
Because I don't have any, that's why.

Eitan, there are plenty of people
who don't have any money

and they don't run around the street
borrowing money.

I-I have to meet the final payments
in my apartment.

I'm sorry, Eitan.
I would love to help you but I can't.

You see, the board of the bank--
I'm very sorry.

I would really would like to help you

-very much, sorry.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's okay.

-Very sorry.
-It's-It's all right.

What are you going to do, Eitan?

Do? Well, I'll just carry on.

Look, you got this friend Avraham,
you know, he's a millionaire.

If he'll sign a guarantee for you,

I can convince the board

that because of Avraham,
you'll get the loan.

-How was it?
-What?

It's got to be trouble.

What? What?

Banks are trouble. My father says.

Why? Is your father a banker?

No, he's a tractor driver.

It's a good profession.

What? Driving a tractor?

No, banking.

Does he want you to be a banker?

No. Doctor.

-Ha-ha, he's right.
-Oh, yes, he's right.

Uh, he's right, he's right, all right.

Listen, do they know where you are?

They don't care.

What do you mean, "They don't care"?

They don't. They don't care.

My father hit me.

Well, maybe he was right.

I was only playing football.

Well, people just can't play football
all their lives.

Why not if they're footballers?

Hey, kid, whereabouts do you live?

-Arad.
-Arad?

I'm only here for your last match.

My whole style's based on yours,

so I couldn't go to Brazil
without seeing you play once, could I?

You mean you've never seen me play?

No, that's why I have to see you
play tonight.

Well, in that case, you're right.

Listen, kid, I bet you play number 10.

How did you know?

-It's all in the record.

You're not going to Brazil
on your own, are you?

Yeah.

Now, listen, kid,
you come along with me.

I'm gonna meet one
of the greatest footballers ever known.

-Who?
-Weiner.

Weiner? Never heard of him.

Uh, there's a lot
about him somewhere, if you can find it.

What difference does it make
if he's 40? He's still good.

Yes, but he's getting
a little past it though.

Just because a player is not
in perfect condition now,

you can't take him out and shoot him.

They take you to the knackers yard,
you know that.

All right. You'll throw us out.

Kill us. We're not good anymore,
so throw us out.

-I said he's 40, that's all.
-You've said enough.

Quiet. He's coming.
Quiet. He's coming.

-At least he's sober.
-Shut up.

Or else you'll take your business
somewhere else.

-All I said--
-All right. Enough.

You're right. He's the greatest.
Still the greatest.

Hello, Eitan.

Hello, Eitan.

Hello, Eitan.

-Can I speak to you for a minute?
-Sit down.

Uh, I want to speak to you privately.

All right. So come with me
across the river.

I'll bring the bottles.

You wait here, kid.

Hey, hey, go play football.

So, what am I gonna do?

Can I lend you some money?

-No. I don't want to borrow anything.
-Jobs?

Well, I can drive a tractor.

Bulldozing pays better.

All right. So I'll drive a bulldozer.

Mind you,
it's a specialised work.

All right, then I won't drive a bulldozer.

Tell me, did you, by chance,
speak to Yasha?

Why? Why did you mention him?

Why did you mention Yasha?

Oh, nothing. He only passed by.

He takes coffee here sometimes.

-He likes athletes.

-He makes a lot of money out of athletes.
-All right, but still, he can be a friend.

Anyhow, he wants to talk to you
before the match.

Maybe he has something in mind.

He gambles a lot, does Yasha.

He makes a lot of money…

this Yasha.

I should have punched him
right in the teeth.

-You know what he wanted me to do?
-Now look here.

Don't tell me your business.
Do what's good for you.

Nobody else will.

Well, I need your advice.

If you want to finish up
working 16 hours a day in a kiosk,

all right, take my advice then,
because that's where it got me.

But if somebody offers you
a better deal, then take it.

They don't offer forever.

Friends? Who? For cheering.
For drinking. But not for jobs!

And, Eitan…

I loved the game too.

I loved it, believe me.

And it loved me to death.

Give me a push.

-Hey!
-Hold on, kid.

Come on. All right, stop!

-Up you go. Up, up. Up.
-Hey, no, come on.

-Come on, Eitan, hey.

-Ha-ha!
-Get me down!

How do you like that, kid?

Come on, come on.

-Ha-ha!

-Let me down at once!
-Oh, get out of there.

-I'll leave you up there. Ha-ha!
-No.

-Hey, it's easy. What do you think?
-Good.

-Right then. When?
-When what?

When do I start?

Look, Eitan, it's, um…
it's a bit difficult.

No, no, no, no. Listen, I mean…
I mean, I'll take the job.

You told me I can have it anytime.

Listen, Eitan, that was last year.

Then there were more machines
than drivers.

But now we have more drivers
than machines.

Everything's changing, you see.

Everything's changing so quickly
all over the country.

Everything's becoming, well, specialized.

You understand?

Yeah, yeah, I understand.

Look, you got this friend
Avraham who you know is a millionaire.

If he'll sign a guarantee for you,

I can convince the board

that because of Avraham,
you'll get the loan.

There's Jossi, he's my age but very big.

And every match,
he's always coming at me, coming at me.

He'd do anything to get me down.

Listen. I see their dirty plays,

and this Jossi's
the dirtiest player the world.

You know what he did once?

Can you keep quiet just for a minute?
Just for one minute?

I was just telling you!

Listen, I'm trying to think,
and you keep talking all the time.

How can I think
if you keep talking all the time?

Well, how am I supposed to know
that you're thinking?

You know something else?
Your old man is right.

You got a big mouth for a small kid,
so try and keep it closed, will you?

I mean, I mean… Oh,
what am I doing in the most important,

probably the most, the most, the most,
the most crucial day of my life

with a kid on my back.

When I get my business done,
I'm taking you home.

-To Arad?
-No, no, to my place,

-but you're waiting there till the match.
-Right.

But I want you to know something.

For a nuisance,
you can be a definite nuisance.

All right! All right!

Hey, hey.

Not all the time.
I mean, not all the time.

But you can definitely be
a definite nuisance when you want to be.

Well, Avraham,
it's nice to see you again.

You're like a stranger these days.

Well, you know what it's like, Avraham.

I'm busy with all that training to do
and everything.

Training? Those were the good days, huh?

Sit down, Eitan.

-Wow. What a place, huh?
-Oh, yeah.

We were quite a combination,
the two of us,

-both, uh, on and, uh, off the field.

Well, I must say we do have our memories.

I should never have given it up.

-Oh, come on. You were right.
-What?

Yeah, you were right.

Yeah, what wouldn't I give
to play tonight?

You play tonight,
I'll stay here.

Well, Eitan, how's everything?

Eitan. Anything I can do for you?

Well, uh…

I could do with a drink.

Oh, naturally. Let's have some.

-Do you still drink vodka?
-Yeah, constantly.

Children, come here.

Wait till you see my children.

Children!

Hello?

Oh, yes, speaking.

What about the interest?

Children are nice and such a blessing.

But he doesn't have a penny.

Don't deal with people like that.

Look, I work hard for my money,
not to throw it away like this.

Hmm. People think because you're rich,
you're the Messiah.

Look, it's not my money.
It's my wife's money,

and I have her to consider.

You know it's not my money.

What is this
about your wife to consider?

Well, uh, ring me back.

-Uh… Just later. Later.
-Eitan.

Sarah.

Eitan surprised us with a visit.

Eitan is full of many things,

but not surprises.

Children… nursery.

A drink, darling?

Too early.

How's Nira?

Nira. Um, fantastic, fantastic.

Fantastic, she is.

Now, why-why don't you marry her?

Eitan doesn't believe in marriage.

Or have you forgotten, dear?

Those were the young days.

Eitan's changed.

He doesn't believe this now.

Do you, Eitan?

Nira's becoming quite
the celebrity herself these days.

You'd better watch out.

Um, she may be keeping me soon.

Finished with football tonight, Eitan?
Is it true?

Yeah, yeah, it's true.

-It's about time.
-There she goes again.

I really must…
I really must go.

Well… well, come on.

Come on, before she puts the old record

about you and I in the good old days.

-Bye-bye.
-Women.

What do they know, about men especially?

-Right?
-You're right.

Eitan, are you sure you don't have
something on your mind?

Sure, I'm sure.

-No problems?
-No.

-Of any sort?

-You know what I mean?
-Yeah, sure.

Well, good luck for tonight, Eitan.

And, Eitan. Good luck.

-Thank you.
-For tomorrow.

That French game, yeah, remember?

You got the ball right by Ahmad.

Nearly in the net, it was.

That's right. You took it!

-Clear out the field.
-Passed one.

-Passed another.
-And another.

-And another.
-Then you were surrounded.

-Then I chucked the ball.
-And fighting past one.

-And another.
-And another.

And another.
I don't know how I got out of that one.

Well, you did.

Of course I did.

You got the ball clear.

I just got enough space to shoot.

Like the last match on their ground.

-Their ground?
-Yeah.

Wow. That's rough.

The worst. They all came at me.

-Like wolves!
-Worse than wolves.

But I took the ball.

-Yeah? Yeah?
-I truly passed them all.

One fella and another fella
and another fella and another fella.

And then smash halfway down the field,
smash into the net.

Wow.

Wow.

Fantastic.

Then you really know
what it feels like, huh?

-You know now what I mean?
-Yeah.

What are you doing, kid?

Digging a hole.

Well, for what?

Having a pee.

That's a good idea.

Listen, kid, you know football is great.

Sure, sure.

I mean, it's great
to be a footballer when you're ten.

I mean it.

-Well, I'm nearly 38.
-You're 40!

All right, all right.

Now, listen,
I'm going to make an important point.

Listening.

You just can't go on forever.

For an athlete, 40 is an old man.

All he can do for the rest of his life
is grow older.

But what comes after?

-After what?
-The last game.

-What comes after that?
-What? What?

You don't understand a thing
I'm trying to tell you, do you?

I do. But it's just such
a long time till I'm 40.

Haven't you finished yet?

No.

All right then. Carry on, carry on.

I mean, you do see what I mean, don't you?

You see, your old man is right.

You ought to go home
and get that doctorship.

I don't need a doctorship
to kick a ball, do I?

The kicking has to stop sometime.

And that's when you need a profession.

You gotta think ahead.

-You didn't.
-I know I didn't, I know I didn't.

That's why I've got problems now.

I'm trying to save you
the same problems as I have.

I don't mind a few problems.

Oh… listen, kid.

You say that now.

Well, I really don't mind having
to solve a few problems.

Well, I've got a problem,
and I have to solve it.

Turn around. Tell him the bet's on.

Smart.

He need not what he shares with us.

Hooray!

-Great!
-Hey, kid.

-Over, dance on top here.
-All right!

Hey, this is great.

Watch out!

Yeah, it's really quite a car, isn't it?

-I never even knew there was such a car.
-Hey, there is such a car.

I told you there was such a car.

What else is the point of all that?

Yeah, you tell your friends.

I tell you, it's really something,
isn't it? Fantastic.

-Very nice.
-Yes, terrific.

Bop, bop! Bop, bop!

Bop, bop!

Hey!

-Get out of it!

Get out of it!

Get it out of it!

Get it out of it!

How'd you get it?

-How did I get what?
-The car!

Oh, you work for 20 years
and suddenly, it comes.

-It's nice.
-What do you mean it's nice?

It's fantastic. It's great, it's great!

Huh… I liked the old one.

The old one? You're mad.
The old one was falling to pieces.

-I thought…
-You thought what?

-It doesn't matter.
-What do you mean? What? What?

It's none of my business.

Oh, look at you.

Suddenly, you've become polite.

Now, listen, son.
If you got anything to say to me, say it.

Come on, say it, say it. Come on. Say it.

I thought you were short of money.

Oh, now you're worried
about how I spend my money.

-What's it got to do with you?
-That's what I said.

It's got nothing to do with me.

Look, I'm an established man.

I've got lots of interests.
That's why I-I-I-I need the banks.

You didn't look so pleased
when you came out of that bank.

Oh, what a bloody little know-it-all
you've become all of a sudden, huh?

Suddenly, you know everything.

You're ten, ten! And suddenly
you're an expert on everything already.

All right, all right!

Yeah, I'm driving you home, you're tired.

I mean, you are tired, aren't you?

I only asked how you got it, that's all.

Look, if you want something,
you've got to pay for it, right?

Right.

Tha-that means you gotta sell
what you gotta sell. Right?

I mean, your father sells
his work driving a truck.

-Tractor.
-All right, a tractor.

Everything's got a price. If you
want something, you gotta pay for it.

I mean, that's what it's all about.
It's how you sell footballers.

-Not always.
-I mean sometimes, footballers sell clubs.

A good club doesn't just come, you know?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's go, all right?

Take it away!

Yay!

Are we really
going back to your place?

I told you, yeah.

-Wow!
-You like it?

-Yeah.
-Okay.

You stay here.

-Where are you going?
-Don't act like a wife.

-When are we going to the match?
-I told you I'd get you there.

Oh… Wow.

-You like that?
-Yeah.

You wanna eat something?

Nope.

Do your homework or something.

Don't act like a mother.

Will you be all right then?

Hey!

How can a footballer sell a club?

Go back to sleep.

And don't untidy my place.

We have eight canvasses?
When did you get them done?

A long time ago.

We must try and sell them.

Nope, they are not for sale
and they are not for exhibition.

Oh, Nira, you can't keep cling
to everything of Eitan's like this.

-Teddy, please, I can't--
-I mean, after all, darling,

He's still can't be
that much of hang-up, Eitan?

-He is.
-Well, then get rid of him, darling.

Well, he's not exactly a novelty
for you anymore, is he?

Oh, stick to being an agent,
Teddy, will you?

I am being an agent, darling.

You've just been offered
for your first important exhibition abroad

and you must be there. They must have you.

Listen, Teddy, I'm not gonna give
my decision about that now.

Well, all right, then if it's Eitan,

your eternal boy lover,
bring him along for the ride.

But I'm telling you, darling.

Like local one, he won't come.

What a bitch you are.

Teddy, if I want your advice
on my private life, I shall ask you.

And I'm sure I'll be well-advised.
But I haven't asked you.

That's right, Nira.
You haven't asked her yet.

Old cow face.

I'd better go.
Just call me when you decide.

Nira!

Hey, Nira.

Hey, hey, that's great.

Your own exhibition, your own show.

London, Paris, New York.

It's really fantastic, Nira.
Really, really great.

Hey.

Hey, it's really great.
I mean, you should be very happy.

But… wouldn't you care if I go?

What do you mean,
wouldn't I care if you go?

It's got nothing to do
whether I care or not.

I mean, it's… it's you.

You've gotta do what you've gotta do.
I've gotta do what I've gotta do.

Fantastic.

Will you come with me?

Oh, Nira.

That agent of yours is right.

She thinks I'm so infantile,

she'd probably expect me
to travel half-fair.

Oh, come on, Nira. Nira, Nira, look at me.

Come on, look at me.

I can't never change.

I get a job, money, new suit, new tie,
clean underwear, and what will happen?

I'll spend the money, I'll lose the job,
I'll tear the suit, throw the tie away

and, anyway, I don't wear underwear.

I mean, I'll never change.

I don't want you to change.
I want you to come with me.

Oh, Nira, look,
what do you want me to say?

-Go! Go! Go!
-Yes, yes. Say yes!

All right. Yes!

I've said it, I said it. I said yes.

You go.

I mean for--

What the hell are you going on about?

I mean, it's the most fantastic deal!

And you've got to go.
You've just got to go.

All right, Eitan. All right, Eitan.
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go!

That's exactly what I just said.

Go, you gotta be the--

It's exactly what I've said.

Send me a postcard.

God damn it!

Here's Nira.

There.

He hasn't arrived.

Will he come?

I hope not.

Why? We offered him a beautiful deal.

To become what?

We can't give him back his legs, Nira.
He can't be 20 again.

All right. He's an old footballer,
but if he stays with you,

he'll be an old man as well.

But what else can he do?

-What else could he ever do?
-Don't make him so pathetic.

You think he's helpless without you.

What else can he do?

He has just done it.

And crowd here at the stadium, now,
of course, building up very quickly

with just half an hour ago for this match
that decides the championship.

Tel Aviv against Haifa and it really is…

This Eitan will drive me crazy.

Hello?

Hello?

Is that Nira?

Who's that?

Eitan is here.

And he's had three or four drinks.

And he should be at the game.

Someone must come and pick him up.

I can't take the responsibility.

He's at the Ariana Jaffa.

Ariana Jaffa.

Where's the Ariana Jaffa?

Excuse me. Where's the Ariana Jaffa?

It's a long way down to the left.

Great, great.

Thanks.

Where's the Ariana Jaffa?
Where's the Ariana Jaffa?

There.

Nira.

I believe we had
a little disappointment today.

Well, at least he knows the truth now.

Still a pension is useful.
Aging but useful.

He's not taking it.

He doesn't have to jump every time
a whistle blows for the rest of his life.

He'll always jump.

Yes, but now he'll jump for himself.

No.

For me.

For you?

Nobody does anything for you
unless you buy them.

That's right.

Have you seen his new car?

And tomorrow,
he'll have a beautiful new job.

I don't know what yet.

After all, what can he do?

Still, I'll find him something.

That's why he won't be playing tonight.

Nira!

-What's up?
-Is it true, what Yasha says?

Please, tell me that it isn't true.

Hey, kid. Why don't you dance with her?

Go on, go on. Go on! She's a good dancer.

Listen, you won't believe.

He gave me a brand new--
well, a nearly new…

well, an only one-owner car.
It's great, it's great. Fantastic, fanta--

What the…

hell did you do that for?

Well, I don't want to believe it.

You were incorruptible.

You… you couldn't be bought,
you couldn't be sold,

you were a beautiful, free man.

What did you let them do to you?

Do you know? Do you know?

What are you now?

You're the owner of a second-hand car?

It's a nearly new car, I said!

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

-Come on, kid! Come on!
-Eitan, you should be at Bloomfield!

-You'll be late!

-They talk about you on the radio.
-Well, turn it off!

Come on, kid.

Eitan, when's this taxi gonna come?

Now, that's exactly what I want to talk
to you about, kid.

-We'll miss the match! We gotta go!
-Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

-We'll miss the match.
-Don't worry! Let's have a drink.

-You've already had a drink.
-Have another drink.

This stuff's no good for you, you know.

That's good.

That's really good.
That's better.

Now… Now…

Now, we can have a normal
and a proper discussion.

You'll miss the match.

There you go again.

Right when we begin to discuss
something interesting,

you've got to bring up the match!

-But we'll be late!
-Oh, have a drink.

Have a drink.

Don't want it.

Here, I have poured for you.
It's good for you. It's good for you.

-Go on.
-Hmm. All right.

-What the hell?
-Now, listen, kid.

I would have point a few to you, right?

-Right?
-Right.

I don't want you to get mad.

I just want you to think, right?

-I'm thinking.
-Right. Now.

-Take this match, for example…
-You'll miss it.

That is exactly my point.

Miss it?

-You're mad.
-What's so tragic?

I mean, look, I've…
I've got to give the game up.

I've got to get out somehow.

They'll never ask you to play again.

Oh, that's another one of my points.

But not tonight.

Listen, kid.

Look. If…

-If I play tonight…
-Please, play.

-…and if… and if we win…
-Of course, we'll win.

Look, I'm not God.

I mean, I've lost a few games. Sure, sure.

I've won a few games,
but I've lost a few games.

And winning isn't important.

So now, now, if we win tonight,

what? What happens?

If…

more newspaper clippings,
more back clapping,

more handshakes, more trophies,

more promises.

More everything. Everything.

Pow!

Before I know it,
I'll be playing again next season.

Great! Fantastic!

Wow.

You don't understand a word
I've been telling you, do you?

It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

I'll tell you what.
I'll make a deal with you.

Let's drink a toast, right?

-To Eitan…
-Right.

-…and his last match. Okay?
-Okay.

But, definitely,
definitely played last Saturday.

Last Saturday?

But I didn't come from Arad
to see you play last Saturday.

Hey, kid? Where are you going?

I only came to see you play.

Since you're not playing,
I might as well go.

Hey, kid! Hey, kid!

Hey, kid, come back!

Hey, kid, what are you doing?

-I'm looking for my ball.
-Hey, kid!

-Where are you going?
-Leave me alone!

Listen, kid.
There'll be other footballers.

They'll be as good as me, kid. I promise.

-I tell you. I tell you.
-They'll never be as good as you.

Of course, they'll be as good as me, kid.
Look, I promise.

There it is, kid. Look, the ball!

I told you, I'll find it or you! A-ha!

Here it is! The ball!

Leave me alone! I don't need your help!

I just tried to find the ball for you.

I never want to see you again in my life!

What the hell did you do that for?

Eitan! Eitan!

Eitan! Eitan!

-Eitan!

-Eitan!

…a really sensational first half

defines the half-time score, Haifa, two.

Tel Aviv, the favorites, nil.

The championship is stealing away
from Tel Aviv,

so much to do now in the second half.

Come on, Eitan!
You gotta hurry, hurry!

We'll miss the second half!

Don't worry, kid. I'm getting there.
Hold on tight. Hold on tight!

I'll make it! I'll make it!
I'll make it!

Well, we've said often enough, haven't we,

that Tel Aviv are a one-man side,

and certainly, tonight,
shock goes some way to proving that point.

And, certainly, Tel Aviv,
with hardly a shot in the first half,

are missing
Eitan's incomparable flair and fire.

Eitan! Eitan! Eitan!

Eitan.

You nearly missed
your match, eh?

Oh, yeah. I guess, uh,
I'd miss my funeral, I'm that stupid.

-How do you feel?
-Fantastic, fantastic.

He's great, great, really great!

-Who are you?
-I'm his best friend!

Yeah, he's my best friend. My best friend.

Eitan, you are two goals down.

-Do you think you can pull it off?
-Well, I'll… I'll have a try.

What's going to happen
to you after this game?

Well, I'm too old to play football,

I'm too young to be caretaker
of the stadium,

-but I'll find something in between.
-So you think you might win tonight?

Of course, we're gonna win.
Who's the king?

Who's the king? Who's the king?
Who's the king? Who's the king?

-Who's the king?
-Who's the king? Yeah!

Eitan! Eitan!

Eitan, the king,
and he scored the first,

Tel Aviv right back into it.

Wide open again
with a lovely little cross from Brad.

Eitan makes it!

Eitan!

Eitan looking
very dejected indeed,

and indeed he ought to,
because that was a good chance,

it should've been a goal,

and that wasn't the Eitan of old.

He's had one good shot, very well saved,
but that was a good chance.

Oh! He's missed it again!

And Eitan more and more
hanging his head in shame

but seems to be further and further
from producing the spark that Tel Aviv…

Now looking very tired man indeed.

He's running out of steam. His 40 years
really catching up on him now.

And this looks bad….

-Old man! Old man!

How cruel the football crowd can be.

The king now being jeered,
"Old man, old man".

How unlucky can you be?

Eitan with that head over
that hit the cross bar came down.

I've never seen a footballer
so desperate for a goal,

but we're also seeing
a new Eitan here tonight,

because he really went kicking
into the goalkeeper blazer there.

And the crowd are booing.

Old man, old man,
old man, old man,

-old man, old man!
-Eitan!

Eitan, come back! Eitan!

Eitan!

Eitan, please get up.

Get up.

Please.

-How long has he got to go?
-This will be his last chance.

Come on, Eitan! You can do it!

Come on! You can do it!

Listen, kid. They put
the goal post in the wrong place.

Come back. Come back here.

I'm sorry he's been such a trouble
to you in this day.

He's not really a bad boy.

It's just that he doesn't think
about anything

except this stupid, stupid game.

But he's sorry
to have been a trouble to you.

Tell Mr. Eitan you are sorry, Nimrod.

Nimrod. That's your name, huh?

Listen, Nimrod.
