The film received a positive reception from critics . An account of the premiere was broadcast nationally by SBS One , the Australian television network most closely associated with soccer . Filmink embraced it as " a good underdog film " , placing it in the same class as '' The Castle '' , '' Crackerjack '' and '' Two Hands '' . The first screening at the Adelaide Film Festival was sold out . The cinema manager described a later screening on 26 March 2009 at the Mercury Cinema as their " biggest night in thirty-five years "
