== Story ==
Many years ago, Jake, a shy but skillful foosball player, works in a bar at a village. Not only his introverted personality weakens him, but Laura, a girl who he have a love interest on. While Jake is showing Laura the foosball table, a mean-spirited kid came to the bar and challenged him to a foosball match. Jake's shyness let the gang of bullies, including the mean kid, win initially; but with Laura encouraging him, Jake becomes victorious, and everyone at the bar cheer at him. Outside the bar, the hateful boy, who's willingly wants to take revenge on Jake, encounters a manager.
Years later, Laura announced to Jake that she will be travelling to Europe to study abroad, but an interruption is created by the Agent, and the superstar football player, Ace, arrives at the village. It's revealed that Ace is the kid who lost the foosball match by Jake years ago. He announces that he have bought the entire city and is going to construct a gigantic football stadium, although he is interested in destroying the bar, he creates his affection on Laura and conquers her. With the bar destroyed, Jake tearfully sulks, as his teardrop brings the captain of the Stripes foosball team, Captain Skip, to life, much to Jake's shock. Captain Skip convinces that his team are located at the garbage dump, before rescuing Laura.
Jake and Captain Skip encounter Ziggy and Rico, and much later, Captain Rip, captain of the Garnets team. The rest of the members of two teams are located at the fair, thanks to Rico leaving his trail by accidentally igniting his wig, when catching a truck after riding a rat. At the fair, Jake rescued five Stripes players, and Captain Skip rescued the Mustachio Twins, while the rest of the Garnets and Bruno Benítez, the Stripes' goalie, are found by the Agent to give it to Ace, who has Laura at his mansion. Nevertheless, Jake and the foosball players sneak to the Agent's limosuine to track Laura.
While Jake and the foosball players attempt to secretly barge inside the laboratory, Ace attempted to discard the rest of the foosball figures by merging them into bits, but the figures survived. Jake escaped with Laura from Ace, and the last of the players are saved, as one of the Garnets player's screw on his head touched the activated machine, exploding the factory as a result. Much later, Jake challenged Ace to a re-match of foosball, but Ace decided to make a football match against him. Hesitatingly, Jake accepts, with the additional bet made by Laura; if Jake wins the match, the village will be normally reverted.
Jake and Laura start to recruit men to form a team, reuniting elders Jake and Eusebio, the Preacher of the village, the robber Freddie Fingers Finkis, Rufus, Emo, Richard Officer Russell, The Guv'nor, Stinky, and the only female to be recruited in the village, Hormona Domínguez.
Jake's team face off "The Absolutes", Ace's team. Although during the first minutes, the Absolutes made goals. However, the Agent communicates with Ace not to go too hard on the opposite team by himself, but to make them lose by "dancing with a rat", because of the superiority of the business.
Captain Skip and the rest of the foosball figures decide to help Jake's team by secretly sabotaging the other Absolutes, which creates Jake's accidental goal. With a tie, Jake finds Captain Skip that the figures were cheating for them, and protests that the team have to do their opportunity on their own. Looking at the team's encouraging behaviors, Captain Skip and the rest return from the field. Without Captain Skip's help, the team continues fighting the Absolutes in the football match. With little time left, Ace selfishly injured Jake's leg; nevertheless, Jake continues to go after him, but Ace made his third goal, winning the game. Despite his victory, the audience applaud to Jake's team, outraging Ace for his egocentrism and the Agent happily retiring. Jake, although he lost, wins Laura for his affection. With the village rebuilt to its rightful position and a new monument created, Jake and Laura have a son.
