Kuno Becker quotes:

Cinco de Mayo is an important day. The Mexicans had to defend themselves from the French. It is historically significant, but it is not Mexican Independence Day.

When you punch somebody in the ring, you have to use your whole body. I learned that it's more about technique than physical strength.

I've been doing mostly independent films, and things like 'Goal' give me a chance to have more options.

It's a lot tougher to play soccer and make it look believable. But in boxing, it was easier for me. I got injured a lot more in the soccer world. In soccer, I pulled muscles. I thought boxing was going to be tougher.

When you know you made a film that people are going to watch, that's just really awesome; you know you did it for something, you know you shot a film for people to watch it.
