From the Publisher
Q: What do you get when you cross an Australian soccer legend with a bestselling children's author? A: Johnny Warren and Deborah Abela's soccer series for kids!
Jasper Zammit is a soccer legend– at least in his own head. Whole stadiums shout his name as he bends balls, accepts trophies and scores magic goals for the Rovers Under-11s. When a new girl, Lil, joins the team, Jasper thinks he's found someone as obsessed with soccer as he is. But there's one hitch - Lil's dad is the reason Jasper's dad has lost his job. Can the two still be friends?
