It is the summer of 1990 in Stockholm and the World Cup in Italy will begin. The unemployed Johan wakes up hungover from a message on the answering machine. He must sell a grand piano and pay his creditors SEK 50,000 before the evening, otherwise ...The doorbell rings. It is the bailiff who has come to measure his possessions, including the TV, to the horror of football enthusiast Johan. Johan calls a friend who has a TV. It's a match: Sweden-Brazil. The friend's wife is not happy about Johan's presence. Johan threatens his friend's son who stands in the way of the TV. Johan is thrown out. On the way out of the apartment, Johan takes money from a wallet in the hall. Instead, he ends up in a Brazilian restaurant where you watch the match. Johan wakes up hungry the next day in a strange terraced house. When he returns home, the bailiff has emptied the apartment. There are also the two torpedoes Jonny and Bernte, which will collect the 50,000 kronor (+ 10,000 in interest) that Johan owes the gangster boss Nalle. Johan meets his friend Kenneth at an outdoor restaurant. Johan, who has contacts in the music world, has promised to help Kenneth sell a grand piano to Nalle. Johan has not carried out the assignment. The grand piano is instead at the home of a close friend of Johan's family. Jonny and Bernte discuss the pros and cons of a job over a beer. Jonny is tired, so Bernte undertakes to handle a case himself. He throws someone down from a balcony. Johan and Kenneth are out partying and getting more and more drunk. They go to their friend Georg's giant house to steal a precious bottle of wine, so that Johan can pay his debt. Then the slightly strained Georg enters the room. He asks Johan to get something to drink and shows Kenneth his train path. The three take a glass and Georg gives Johan the expensive wine that is now on the table. When they are going home, a taxi arrives with a young lady that Georg receives. It's the girl from the convenience store where Johan usually shops. The next day the torpedoes come home to Johan. They do not want to accept the wine bottle as payment. To top it all, Bernte opens the bottle and drinks from the contents. Now the criminals want SEK 80,000 the next day, otherwise¿ As proof that they are serious, Jonny Johan's little finger breaks. Johan sees a bakery assistant through the window and falls in love. He goes into the bakery and buys a sandwich that he then throws away. Winnie the Pooh is unloading his handkerchiefs because they did not arrange the money from Johan. Johan meets Kenneth, who has a business going on for Johan. He will bring fake passports to Germany to help 15 Iraqis enter Sweden illegally, for 10,000 kronor per skull. Johan has until tonight to decide. Johan returns to the bakery. The girl in the bakery says that her name is Johanna and Johan buys new rolls to throw away. Johan goes home to Kenneth to watch the Sweden-Scotland match on TV. Kenneth intends to invest in Scotland, but Johan makes him change and put the money on Sweden. Scotland wins. Johan and Kenneth are disappointed at the pub. Kenneth calls his bookmaker and puts money on Costa Rica winning 2-1 against Sweden in the next match. In the morning they are very drunk. They hang on their knees and talk on the edge of a bridge that opens. The next day Johan wakes up at Kenneth's house. They go to Arlanda and Kenneth gives Johan advice and admonitions before the assignment. At Arlanda, Johan buys flowers, which a motorcycle courier delivers to Johanna. At the airport in Frankfurt, Johan meets his contact at the bar and gets money. Johan checks in all passports at various check-in counters and then hands over passports and tickets to his contact. In the meantime, Winnie has had enough of waiting for his money. He sends Jonny and Bernte home to Kenneth, who Nalle considers guilty. The torpedoes are grossly abusing Kenneth. Johan manages to get the Iraqis into Sweden, but is met at Arlanda by Jonny and Bernte who take him to the hospital where Kenneth is in a plaster cradle. It's time for the match Sweden-Costa Rica. The villains steal a TV from another patient's room and together with Kenneth and Johan they watch the match. Costa Rica wins 2-1 and Kenneth earns big money on his bet. Jonny says they need to change their lives. Johan then gives his 150,000 to Jonny to avoid Winnie the Pooh in the future. Jonny and Bernte take the money themselves. 15 Iraqis arrive at Nalle's office and shortly afterwards the police, who have been tipped off by someone. Kenneth and Johan go home to Georg's house and look at the Bösendorfer grand piano, which Johan has not been able to sell. Johan plays on it. Jonny and Bernte start their own business and start importing garden elves. Johan resolutely enters the bakery. (http://www.svenskfilmdatabas.se/sv/item/?type=film&itemid=28710#plot-summary)
