Gerard Butler from Phantom of the Opera starred in The 'Game of Their Lives' in 2005.
The name of the movie has been changed to 'The Miracle Match,' which tells the story of the 1950 US soccer team.
This movie never came to my area so I've never seen it and was unable to find it on DVD. I recently discovered it on Amazon under the name of The Miracle Match, so I plan to buy it.

I got it, under the name "The Miracle Match", and it is WONDERFUL! My hubby couldn't figure out why I was watching a soccer movie, of all things, until he saw who was in it, LOL!
But I think MY favorite Gerry Butler movie is "Dear Frankie". Run, not walk, to get your DVD and enjoy one of the best films ever made! (Even though GB doesn't show up until about halfway through, he is worth the wait. . .)
The Miracle Match? I just got it on netflix last month. It's a good movie, and definately worth a look for Gerry fans. Have you seen him in Beowulf and Grendel (2005)? Also netflix. Great movie, some odd casting (Sarah Polly as a viking witch?) but the extras are as good as the movie. Love that!
