The former female Fu Liu Qingyan was dismissed from office due to a ridiculous "imperial cat trampling on books case" and became the laughing stock of the capital. In order to make a living, she accidentally took over a "waste" Cuju team composed of market gangsters that was on the verge of disbandment. The team's coach is Xiao Jingtian, a retired meritorious scout who was once known as the "Zhenbei Mad Dragon" but is now an alcoholic due to a leg injury.
One is a theoretical, "paper-talking" female boss who uses "The Doctrine of the Mean" to talk about positions, uses "Sun Tzu's Art of War" as a formation map, and talks a lot; the other is a practical, "world-weary" coach who is experienced but frustrated, has a hot temper, and can do things but never talk. Starting from a turbulent run-in, the two led a group of players with their own quirks (there was a goalkeeper who was afraid of the ball, and a "puffy" forward who couldn't run three steps and was out of breath), and used a series of unheard-of strange tactics such as the "gentleman's magnanimous" passing method and the "three people must have my teacher" defensive strategy to counterattack all the way.
The highlight of the plot is that the heroine has no golden fingers. Her biggest "plug-in" is to creatively apply her profound Confucian knowledge to Cuju tactics and team management, turning a ragtag group into a champion. In the ridiculous training and competition, Liu Qingyan not only cleared his name, but also healed the inner wounds of Xiao Jingtian and his team members. He finally exposed the shady behind the league, led the team to the top of the country, and became happy enemies with Xiao Jingtian.
