Miranda, the striker for Manchester Acatitla, has an altercation on the field of play that leaves a scar on her face: she and her teammates face the aggressiveness of the rival team, generating a violent atmosphere among women. Despite the circumstances, Miranda's team is victorious and she embarks on a journey back home. Along the way she faces dangers off the pitch.
