Teen Marcus was eliminated by the youth team. Down and out, he awakened an all-round shooting system. By misallocating stats, he mastered top dribbling and was scouted after shining on street courts. He scored desperate match-winners repeatedly and turned down big-money offers to stay loyal to his club. Called up for the World Cup, he outwitted two Ballon d'Or stars in the final and struck a last-minute wonder goal. At 19, he lifted the trophy, writing an underdog football legend.
