Owen was so impressed with his skills and techniques. He provides Munez with the opportunity to play for a reputed English Club; however Munez fails to impress in the beginning. He felt he was close to his dreams. He remember his decision of leaving house to purse his dreams. He start working hard and a few months later he succeed to fulfill his dream. He was soon recognized as the best footballer in the world. Had he been able to earn name and fame if he has chosen to work in the family's farm?
