In any list of the best football movies should appear 'Escape to Victory'.

MEAN MACHINE
Very much in the line of the previous, again we met some prisoners who dispute a party in jail. Vinnie Jones, who was one of the most aggressive Soccer Players in History, is the main character. The goalkeeper character played by Jason Statham crazy is sublime (Photo: Sky)
SHAOLIN SOCCER
In agreement, It is not the best football movie much less, but we want to include it in this list because of course if you want to laugh and hang you must see. If you think it's impossible to make a kind of Oliver and Benji with flesh and blood you're wrong. 100% recommendable (Photo: Screenrush)
GREEN STREET HOOLINGANS
Want to see Frodo (Elijah Wood) deliver milk as breads? Well here you can do it. This film shows us the world 'hooligan'. In particular it focuses on a group of West Ham fans dedicated to organizing fights against groups of rival teams. Interesting movie that we can see in Spanish on YouTube (Photo: Espinof)
THE DAMNED UNITED
Another film that can not miss in this list of the best football movies. The Damned United discusses the controversial Brian Clough (that made champions and European Cup Nottingham Forest) but this time focusing on his time at Leeds and Derby County. Very good (Photo: Sportsjoe)

THE KEEPER
This German film tells the incredible true story of Bert Trautmann, Nazi paratrooper who was one of the 90 survivors of a battalion 1.000 mens. Trautmann (title of the film in Germany) It was captured by English soldiers where he was a prisoner. Years later he was released but he refused to return to Germany staying to live in England.

But nevertheless, after 15 years defending the goal of the club became legendary 'citizen’ (Film Stories).

Great movie that focuses on that historic final between Hungary and Germany in the World Cup 1954. Again, very well set and, like others on this list, we can find it complete and in Spanish on Youtube (Radio Snail)
JIMMY GRIMBLE'S DREAM
A film that teaches us the story of Jimmy Grimble, a shy boy who loves soccer and a fan of City in a city where almost everyone is from United and he is a freak. And there was a time when City were Manchester's small and modest team. Jimmy wants to be a footballer for his City and some old boots and the advice of a former star of the team of his soul make him play like a crack. In the movie, by the way, the old man comes out Maine Road, former Manchester City stadium.
