Bookroo's summary

Dominic is reluctantly thrust into the spotlight when his soccer team's star player, Carlos, is absent. Known for his antics rather than his skills, Dominic faces a pivotal moment. Can he overcome his reputation and earn the trust of his coach and teammates to lead the team to victory? As the pressure mounts, Dominic must decide if he can rise to the challenge and seize his unexpected opportunity. Will he surprise everyone, including himself, or will his past behavior hold him back?

From the publisher

Dominic doesn’t want to play soccer, but when his mom signs him up, he has no choice. So Dominic just messes around on the field during practice, even though he secretly admires the skills of Carlos, his star-player teammate. When Carlos has to miss a game, Dominic starts to think it could be his time to shine. But after his rowdy behavior, will his coach or any of his teammates trust Dominic to score big?
