July 4th, 1990. England are playing Germany in the Semi final of the World Cup. In Majorca, Bill and Monica are on holiday trying to rekindle their marriage. Monica dreams of an affair with Gary Lineker. But as the game begins, the couple, in the company of Bill’s colleagues Dan and Ian, along with Birgitta, a German tourist rep, settle down to watch the game on TV. Through ninety minutes, extra time and the infamous penalty shoot out, the field of battle switches between the hotel and the Italian football pitch as Monica, Bill and the England team approach the inevitable.
