Plot hole: At the beginning, it shows Santiago crossing the border into the U.S. But the U.S. border patrol is on the Mexican side.
Goal! (2005)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Danny Cannon
Starring: Alessandro Nivola, Anna Friel, Kuno Becker, Tony Plana, Leonardo Guerra, Miriam Colon
Continuity mistake: When Newcastle plays Chelsea the ball is yellow, but when we see shots from the real game it is white when we see the actors with the ball.
Santiago Munez: The only one who can tell me I'm not good enough is you. And even then I may not agree with you.
Trivia: The free-kick goal scored by Santiago (actor) against Liverpool in the movie was actually scored by the real Newcastle United player Laurent Robert in the real game against Liverpool which won them the game 1-0.
