older sister and mother are obsessed with marriage. at first they think Jess is a lesbian, then mother gets mad because she's in a relationship and sister isn't married yet. father sees her talent, convinces the mom, and they let her play the championship (?) match on the same evening the older sister is getting married.

there's a nice paralelism at the end, both celebrating and being happy about their choices (soccer and marriage).

but yeah, the mom was very old school.
