Tempting Fate: Scrooge gave the boys a trophy he found through his stash believing it to be mere rubbish with even the boys thinking so until a museum curator informs them otherwise. Sure enough, they take advantage of this to get Scrooge to cooperate. When the boys bring Scrooge to a sports store to get them a new ball, Scrooge states that the one they have appears to work well enough. Cue the ball bursting as Scrooge bounces it.

Failed a Spot Check: When the Beagle Boys break into Goofy's house to kidnap him, Goofy casually walks by them not giving a bat's eye. It's when he goes to bed that he lets out a "Hey! Wait a minute!" However, it turns out that he said that because he forgot to turn off the lights, allowing the Beagle Boys to knock him out easily.

Boom in the Hand: The Beagle Boys' final attempt to win the game is to rig a soccer ball to blow Goofy up. However, the Beagle Boy in charge of detonating the bomb pushes the wrong button, prompting the leader to take the remote and detonate the bomb while it is in their hands.

Badass in Distress: Goofy gets captured by the Beagle Boys in an effort to ensure an easy victory against the Greenbacks. For the most part, he doesn't put up much of a fight. However, once Goofy realizes that the Beagle Boys are cheating and proud of it, he manages to break free and return to the game all while giving his captors the slip.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!
 Sport Goofy in Soccermania / int_7fbb2a3
comment
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The whole plot happened thanks to Scrooge giving a trophy he thought was worthless all so he didn't have to spend $1.49 on a trophy. Of course, when said trophy turns out to be worth millions, not only does Scrooge have to sponsor the team to get it back, but the trophy attracts the Beagle Boys.

comment
Stating the Simple Solution: One of the Beagle Boys suggests they wait until the tournament ends and steal the trophy from the winner. This is acknowledged as a clever idea, but the lead Beagle points that winning the soccer tournament will net them the trophy "nice and legal."

Easily-Distracted Referee: The ref for the soccer game between Scrooge's team and the Beagle Boys has trouble seeing to the point that he calls goal for the Beagle Boys' blatant cheating. It take the Beagle Boys beating up Goofy for Scrooge to give the ref some glasses, allowing him to call a penalty.
