The things it does wrong is outnumbered by the things it does right, so I suppose it's recommendable. For me it was a big problem that the film did not know how or when to linger. It unfortunately fails to capture the seemingly everlasting feeling of first love, and as the film is so short it seems they could've easily made a bigger effort in that regard. Nevertheless, outstanding cast, and the film has a huge heart, though it could have made better use of the football aspect of the story.
