Naz is nicknamed the "goal machine" because he scores goals for fun. He's the league's top scorer. But then things start to go wrong: fabulous saves, the woodwork, an injury...His confidence wanes and he tries too hard. All of a sudden he can't buy a goal. His place is in doubt for the cup game. An injury gives him a break and he finally gets back on track - with a huge slice of luck - and ends up scoring a hat-trick.
