Once: Season 1

Felipe and Gabo live in a small village near Buenos Aires and dream of a football career. One day, Señor Vitto, a representative of a football academy, appears and has to decide whom he will offer a scholarship to.

After arriving at the academy, Gabo immediately becomes friends with his roommates Ricky and Dedé. However, he defeated just the record holder Lorenzo in a penalty, which will turn out to be a big mistake.

The starting signal for a fierce power struggle between Lorenzo and Gabo has fallen. However, Gabo has not only to defend himself against Lorenzo's lousy tricks, but also against his father Diego, who was appointed the new sports director.

Gabo struggles to get his performance up in training - a godsend for Diego, who wants to shut him out of the IAD and deny him the scholarship. It quickly comes to suspicion that things are not right here.

In order to clear Lorenzo's biggest competitor, Lorenzo's father Diego tries to deprive Gabo of the scholarship due to a lack of achievements. Gabo is worried that he has to go back to his village now when Zoe and he approach.

Lorenzo and Gabo compete for the post of team captain. When Francesco and Diego agree to include school performance as well, Lorenzo's chances rise, unlike Gabos.

The math test, which makes a decisive contribution to the team captain, creates great tension. Although Lorenzo is in front in all areas, Gabo is well on his way to catch up.

Martina decides to help Gabo with the math exam, which causes great mistrust among his friends. Meanwhile, Lorenzo doesn't miss an opportunity to bully Gabo and let him know he's the better player.

Ironically, Gabo and Lorenzo have to play in a team, which Lorenzo doesn't like at all. Professor Olson's attempt to show the children a rare snake ends in hallucinations and a visit to the infirmary.

Gabo is horrified by the result of the math test, but he can prove that things are not right. Meanwhile, Martina becomes captain, and Zoe becomes a regular player in the volleyball team.

Lorenzo tries to pull Mariano and Catorce for the captain's election on his side. But the choice is different than expected. Diego's promising offer of an agency meets with skepticism. Gabo gets the offer of his life.

Gabo has reservations about accepting the offer to play in Europe. While the Hawks prepare for a game against a professional team, Lorenzo tries to attach Gabo to the theft of the most important trophy of the IAD.

Gabo is still suspected of stealing the trophy, pushing him ever closer to Giovanni's arms. While Dedé and Ricky try to prove his innocence, Lorenzo leaves no stone unturned to uphold the allegations.

An anonymous letter assures Gabo's innocence, whereupon Isabel has a new suspicion. Meanwhile, Lorenzo worries about the trophy, which was stolen from Camilo's bag. The meeting on the professional team is different than expected.

Valentino has to leave the game, whereupon Lorenzo becomes the new captain. Ricky believes he has seen the trophy and goes in search of the half-time. Since the game is going badly for the Hawks, Diego offers Francisco a bet.

The Hawks have won the game. When Lorenzo suddenly shows team spirit and makes peace with Gabo, he is elected as the new captain. Gabo decides against the offer as a professional player. A video about the institute causes confusion.

The manipulated video does not only cause irritation to the Ministry of Education. Lorenzo's plan to ban Ricky on the bench takes a turn when the real culprit betrays himself by a gross mistake.

Ricky tries to convict Camilo of the crime before he himself will be wrongly accused. While Francisco is dissatisfied with the lineup for the game against the Eagles, these provoke the Hawks. Diego is planning the victory of the first game.

While Ricky finds nothing on Camilo's tablet, Camilo suspects that his tablet has been replaced. One last idea from Ricky is to ask Amadeo for help. Through Ricky's suspension, Lorenzo's plan of playmaking goes up.

Although Amadeo has found proof of Camilo's guilt, Lorenzo's betrayal leads him to the director. Due to the expulsion of Camilo from the IAD, the team must be restructured shortly before the game - with serious consequences.

After the Hawks have lost the game against the Eagles, they have to endure much scorn and ridicule. Diego is trying to find a substitute for Coach Francisco, who has to make a tough decision on Gabo's and Lorenzo's future.

Gabo and Lorenzo have to help Florencio clean up, which especially Gabo doesn't like at first. After Ezequiel tries in vain to threaten Gabo, Gabo learns more about his father's pin.

Ricky and Dedé are spurred on by the idea that the pin Gabo found belongs to his father. After Francisco makes an important decision, he receives unexpected support, but he should not be happy too soon.

Ricky and Dedé continue to try to find out who Gabo's biological father is. Meanwhile, Martina rejects every single one of Zoe's ideas and Ricky makes a startling discovery that will not be without consequences for Gabo and Zoe.

Ricky and Dedé tell Gabo about their theory that Francisco can be his father. Now they must do their best to keep Gabo and Zoe apart and elicit information from Zoe on a very specific coin.

To finally find out if Francisco is his natural father, Gabo asks him about his pin. Vitto and Pulpo follow Giovanni and make a disturbing discovery. Lorenzo has doubts about Franciscos strategy for the next game.

Gabo tries to find out if Zoe is mad at him, while Ricky and Dedé follow Bruno to a spa. After an interview with Gabo on Joaquín's channel, Julián and his team show up there to answer in person.

Vitto considers Francisco's behavior suspicious and is looking for talk with Diego. Dedé gets more and more stressed because of the game. Meanwhile, Lorenzo tries to pressure Dedé to get rid of a player.

Gabo wants to know more about the favor Lorenzo has asked Dedé. Finally, Gabo gets answers to his questions, whereupon he asks Zoe for advice. Joaquín participates in a major competition broadcast on television.

Due to tensions between the Hawks and their opponents, the Hawks are struggling to keep up with their opponents in the field. Meanwhile, Joaquín can once again shine on television with his football knowledge.
