Becca (Osment)'s soccer team is locked into a depressive losing streak, and without a new coach there's no chance they will ever make it to the regional finals. As luck would have it, Italian soccer legend "Lorenzo Vincenzo" is in town, and he's got a foolproof plan to get Becca's team back on the right track. What none of the players or parents realize, however, is that "Lorenzo Vincenzo" is actually Becca's mother Wendy (Pyle) in disguise. Will Wendy be able to maintain her elaborate ruse long enough to lead Becca's team to the regional finals, or will the stress of balancing family responsibility with maintaining her secret identity cause this well-meaning soccer mom to come completely unglued before the winning goal can be scored. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
