This film has been compared to the German production Guys and Balls.
While this genre is far more established in the United States with movies such as Hard Ball (2001) or The Mighty Ducks (1992) in which an underdog team is posed to somehow find the spirit to win an important game against a far superior opponent, these kinds of movies are relatively rare in German cinema.
