Andys Zwillingsschwester Lona hört mit, wie drei Jungen einen hinterhältigen Plan schmieden. Sie schafft es allerdings nicht, dem Trainer alles mitzuteilen. Da fasst sie einen verzweifelten Entschluss, der für einigen Wirbel beim gerade laufenden Turnier sorgt.

Soll Andy Lattes Team einen Spion losschicken, der die gegnerische Mannschaft heimlich beobachtet? Oder soll sich Torwart Schubi ein Maskottchen ins Tor stellen? Für Abwehrchef Walle ist die Lösung klar: Nur die Abseitsfalle wird den Klosterbergern den Sieg bescheren. Doch der Trainer hält es für zu riskant, so kurz vor einem so entscheidenden Spiel etwas Neues einzuüben. Ob Walle und seine Abwehrkameraden gut daran tun, die Falle trotzdem heimlich zu trainieren? Bei allen offenen Fragen merken die Spieler: Fußballer müssen nicht nur flinke Ballkünstler, sondern auch standhafte Persönlichkeiten sein.

Wer könnte den Brand im Sportheim gelegt haben? Der Trainer und Polizist Holger Beiersdorf geht der Frage noch einmal nach. Da taucht ein Mann auf, der sich für dieselbe Frage interessiert.

Die Mannschaft von Andy Latte muss ein Sondertraining einlegen und das bedeutet: Viel Fußball - und einiges über Fairness!

Klosterberg lag deutlich zurück und kam mit der harten Spielweise des Gegners gar nicht zurecht. Da muss sich also etwas tun. Trainer Holger Beiersdorf und Vater Ludwig Latte schöpfen aus ihrem Erfahrungsschatz - und trimmen die Mannschaft für dieses Spiel ganz besonders.
