5–0 down in the Icarus Cup Quarter-Final. Somehow, Williamsburg Town FC clawed it back to win on penalties.
Dead and buried. Legs gone. Heads gone. Pride hanging on by a thread.
But slowly, somehow, we clawed our way back into it. One goal. Then another. And so on.
Extra time. Penalties.
And somehow… we won.
A short film about grassroots football, momentum swings, and the strange belief that no game is ever truly over.

Williamsburg Town FC v West Brooklyn Albion in the Division 4 Play-Off Final (feat. George & Jack’s Taproom).

Not only fighting for a place in Division 3 next season, but also bragging rights on the streets of Brooklyn. WTFC took an early lead through Alex Tonner, though WBA responded with 2 quick goals within just a minute. Before both teams looked horns in a tense end to end 2nd half. WBA go on to play D3 football next season. WTFC went to the pub.
