Nineteen-year-old Jason and Ade have been at the famous London football club's academy since they were eight years old. It is the night before their first game for the first team - a Champions League game - and they are in a hotel room in Romania. They should be sleeping, but they are too excited. They jump, fight, models each other, ready their kit, watch teammates' sex tapes. And then, out of nowhere, one of them kisses the other. The impact of this "acceptance" dissects through the next ten years of his life - a decade of fame and failure, secrets and lies, in a world where sport is the image of everything.
