The Make-A-Wish Foundation has been doing stuff like this for a long time, but this is the first time on record that the Foundation got an entire team involved...

Atticus Lane-Dupre missed the tail end of last soccer season with his Green Machine classmates because of cancer treatments. Since they were so supportive, Atticus wanted to include them.

And, oh yeah...
Atticus got the game winner

Here's your recap...
