â€œTrust me, Iâ€™ve wanted to punch you in the face a time or five.â€ When the man you worshipped as a kid becomes your coach, itâ€™s supposed to be the greatest thing in the world. Keywords: supposed to. It didnâ€™t take a week for twenty-seven-year-old Sal Casillas to wonder what sheâ€™d seen in the international soccer iconâ€”why sheâ€™d ever had his posters on her wall, or ever envisioned marrying him and having super-playing soccer babies. Sal had long ago gotten over the worst non-break-up in the history of imaginary relationships with a man that hadnâ€™t known sheâ€™d existed. So she isnâ€™t prepared for this version of Reiner Kulti who shows up to her teamâ€™s season: a quiet, reclusive shadow of the explosive, passionate man heâ€™d once been. Nothing could have prepared her for the man she got to know. Or the murderous urges he brought out in her. This was going to be the longest season of her life.
