Plot

[edit]

The Yugoslavia national team prepares to participate in the inaugural FIFA World Cup, the world championship for men's national association football teams that will take place in the capital of Uruguay, Montevideo in 1930. After a lengthy trip over the Atlantic Ocean, the Yugoslavia national team finds themselves amongst 12 other nations, competing for the World Cup.

The Yugoslavia team are the underdogs of the tournament and are given a minimal chance of succeeding after being drawn with the favorites of the tournament, Brazil. Thanks to the talent and dedication of the players, they defeat Bolivia and Brazil in their group stage and advanced to the knockout stage. News spreads around the world that Yugoslavia came the second place in the tournament[a] and received a Silver medal.
