WHEN MAGIC CLEATS ARRIVE AT CHRISTMAS, LEE THINKS HIS PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED. HE'S DEAD WRONG.
Twelve-year-old bully Lee Scout is out of time and out of options. His grandad needs help Lee can't give, and unless he finds five thousand dollars in sixty days, he'll lose the only family he has left to foster care.
His last hope? Win the Christmas Cup tournament with a team full of kids he's spent the year tormenting.
There's just one massive problem: Lee's team is a complete disaster. They've never won a single game. Ever.
Then a mysterious package appears at his doorstep. Inside are magical soccer cleats that make Lee play like his hero, Lionel Messi. Suddenly impossible shots find the net. Defenders can't touch him. His hopeless team starts racking up wins.
But these cleats come with complications Lee never imagined.
As the tournament intensifies and the stakes climb higher, Lee discovers that some gifts demand more than he's willing to give.
Now he must choose between the magic that's carrying him toward victory and the misfit teammates he's spent the season pushing away.
