hanging on to reality by a soccer ball

This will probably be best liked by older people. An older man holds a card from a deceased persons memorial. Grieving, he happens upon a soccer game. His hat appears to be full of soccer pins so he must be a long time fan? In any case he watches the game - no great match, its made up of 2 teams of customer employees, well past their prime. One younger man seems to have more skill/energy so the elder mans attention is drawn to him. He goes to the pub after and stays late. Later we learn he has a wife who is worried about his memory - reasonably worried - as we soon see. He attends the teams next game and the skilled player seems to notice his presence. Later, he mentions seeing Will to his wife. From her reaction we guess Will is deceased - likely a son. She goes through an old suitcase, finding pictures - of Will? Later another game and the pictures show the face of the skilled player

...or run. An old couple. Bizarre reactions of husband . A suitcase . And the answer. A great, beautiful short film. About a sort of obsession as only tool for preserve the normality. Admirable performances, delicate storytelling. And one of touching films about the roots of love.
