The Russian national team, which was previously eliminated and disbanded, goes to the European Football Cup instead of the England team, which was disqualified due to another prank by fans. The Russian Football Federation has only two weeks to assemble a team. The most scandalous figure in Russian football is recruited for this task: coach Sorokin, who invites football players to the national team who, for one reason or another, have found themselves in the rank of«shot down pilots»: two are under investigation for a fight, another is going through a high-profile divorce, and someone is «on the bench» because of their character. The main star, Ivanov, also returns to the national team. And he does this because of his daughter: the girl is seriously ill, but she gets better when our team wins, and vice versa - worse if it loses. Despite the fact that at the beginning each of the football players pursues their own goals, as the plot develops, they unite and begin to fight for the life of a little girl, Dasha.
