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.

First Time In Rome

The flight to Rome was a bit of a long one given the fact that it took them two hours and twenty-two minutes to get there.

Once their plane got into Rome, it landed at the closest airport to the Stadio Olimpico, the Rome Ciampino ( CIA ) airport.

As soon as the plane stopped moving, the players alighted from the aircraft and were now standing beside it with their pieces of luggage as they waited for the bus that was going to come pick them up.

"The weather here is quite pleasant," Merino said before taking a deep breath.

"Yeah, it's always like this during this period, if you came here around July or August, you wouldn't call the weather pleasant." Martinez expressed.

"Oh, well, then I'm glad we had to come now."

"I guess for most of you, it's your first time in Italy," Martinez said.

"Yeah, it's my first time," Dave said with a nod.

"Me too," Mateo said.
