Soccer Dog: European Cup

Soccer Dog: European Cup is the 2004 feature film sequel to the film Soccer Dog: The Movie, about a dog with an uncanny ability to play soccer.

Premise

The plot is about the dog from the first film who has been reclaimed by his real owners and is taken to Europe to play in the championship, which he eventually wins.

Reception

A critic from Common Sense Media rated the film 2/5 stars and wrote, "kids will laugh at the goofy antics of the soccer team and enjoy the scenes with the dog. They may not be able to understand the Scottish accents and haggis references, but they'll still have fun even if their parents are cringing". A critic from The Dove Foundation wrote, "it was a touching story of how a family comes in many different forms and that even parents can learn from their kids". Alex Morrison of ThatFilmGuy wrote, "If you like football or have ever heard a real Scottish accent you’d best avoid this. Otherwise, enjoy!"
