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.

A Highly Anticipated Match

"Alright, boys, there's no doubt that this is going to be our toughest match in the league this season factoring in the fact that we'll have to face them twice," Norman said as he paced up and down in front of the players.

'The last time we faced them in the league wasn't fun at all.' Dave said subconsciously.

<Yeah, and you played quite a role in making it not fun>

'Hey, it's not like you were there, but I guess you're not entirely wrong.'

"I know we defeated them in the Charity Cup friendly but it would be delusional to assume that we would be able to beat them as comfortably as we did last time. Don't get me wrong, I believe we have what it takes to beat them but underestimating them is not an option." Norman expressed. "They've started off with an eight-game unbeaten run just like last season and unless they encounter some big problem, they're going to run away with the league title once again."
