    The docuseries somewhat named Canada Soccer's #WeCAN World Cup Documentary Series (2022) is an inspiring tale of their road to the 2022 World Cup. If this doesn't make you a fan of CANMNT, nothing will. On Youtube.

    The Gentlemen's League 2 (2021) is a very entertaining reality show series from South Korea where retired national athletes from minor sports learn to play soccer under the tutelage of Korean greats. Has some great coaching tips too. Nirvana for 30-somethings. On netflix.

    20 years ago, Daniel Gordon created his first feature-length docu about the North Korean team that advanced out of the group stage at WC 1966. It's worth watching The Game of Their Lives (2002) to see the parallels with WC 2022.

    12 years on from their debuts as director, screenwriter, and child actors, we should look back and consider Africa United (2010) a modern fairytale. Worth watching. On Netflix.

    The ESPN60 documentary Truth be Told: The Fight for Women's Professional Soccer (2022) makes clear why players are so susceptible to abuse when they are underpaid, desperate to play professionally, and unable to report bad behavior for fear of retribution.

    If you were happy when the European Super League collapsed in Apr-2021, you must watch Super Greed: The Fight for Football (2022). Lots of Schadenfreude. On Paramount+

    If you miss watching the World Cup, King Otto (2021) is a great alternative that provides 82 minutes of happiness. All the Euros 94 footage is put together in a narrative that is fast-paced and entertaining.

    Dangerous Play (Jugada Peligrosa) is the story of the character of 6 Argentines who refereed despite death threats from Pablo Escobar in 1989. I recommend this 2022 documentary to every referee. On HBO Max.
