But when Marko publicly insults his coach he is sent to the bench. This position makes for a very poor advertising space. With the help of Marko‘s brother, retired player Oli, Tim finally gets through to the stubborn star. When the mediation attempt with the coach fails big time, Tim has only one last chance...
