My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

"Things aren't looking good for Unique FC here, they just got their equalizer and now the most crucial player in their team is being sent off," Jim said.

"No way! That ball didn't touch my hand!" Dave asserted before walking closer to the referee. "The VAR is there for a reason, right? Why don't you go get a clear look at the footage?"

"Yeah," Adolf said.

The referee was about to say something when he heard one of the video assistant referees say something through his earpiece.

"Looks like Dave Richards won't be going out just yet, the referee is heading to the VAR monitor now to confirm his decision," Dave said.

"It looked like he was telling the referee something about the ball not touching his hand there, maybe it didn't touch his hands, let's get a closer look," Steve said.

After rewatching the footage carefully on the VAR monitor, the referee quickly made his way back to the pitch and called off the red card.
