Tony Bravo, a DEA agent from Boyle Heights, is recruited by a little-known branch of the CIA for a top-secret mission: investigate the LA Riot—one of the greatest soccer teams in the world—by going undercover as one of their players. Tony will need the espionage skills to impress his handlers and some fast footwork to make the team, or The Beautiful Game could end in sudden death. Is Tony in for the win?

The codes stolen from Gideon Khan’s tablet allow the team to track a hired assassin known as “The Apothecary” via Andrès Galan's satellite network. Tony must find a way to protect the target, while juggling his new teammates, his family, and most of all: the truth.

A recurring dream from Tony’s past coincides with his debut on the LA Riot, which is quickly compromised when he needs to rescue Galan’s troublemaking daughter, Senna, from harm. As Tony races against time, both on the field and off, Annie and Noah realize something about Galan that could be a game changer.

Whisked away on Galan’s private jet, Tony, Holester, and Caesar touchdown in Nicaragua, a world run by a drug cartel leader known as “The Worm,” where the stakes are high and the death rate is higher. Aided by an old DEA friend, Tony finds himself in a brutal futsal game where the prize is more than just walking away with your life.

Guess who’s coming to Cristina’s quinceañera? Andrés Galan, meet the Sandovals. The same can’t be said for Tony, who is forced to bail and put the mission over his family when a member of the team gets taken by Samuel. Not even a Riot tie can soften the fallout from this joyous occasion.

Is there anything worse than horrible in-flight service? Just ask the passengers who landed in San Francisco. Samuel’s uncovering of Tony’s past leaves Matador and Galan at odds. Meanwhile, the CIA learns of Dr. Lucien Sayer’s secret to extending life.

Tony ends up behind enemy lines and the locals must help uncover Sayer's plan. Meanwhile, Annie attempts to find Tony and Galan deals with the consequences of his confrontation with Reyna Flores.

As Sayer's endgame is finally revealed, Tony's relationships with the CIA and his family will change forever.
