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.

Helping Out A Young Stranger

"I can't believe you didn't find that even a bit funny," Mateo said as he stepped down from the bus with Dave.

"Sorry, I didn't meet your expectations, I guess my sense of humor has been washed up a little bit." The goalkeeper said, scratching the back of his head.

"Yeah, and you should work on getting back, I can't deal with having to laugh at the jokes alone in the room." The winger said before he hastened his step toward the building.

'I didn't even watch the video so I believe my sense of humor is intact.' The goalkeeper said subconsciously.

After returning to their rooms, the team had their lunch together and now it was time for them to get some rest or do whatever they wanted to do as long as it didn't go against their code of conduct while they were there after all they didn't have any match to play tomorrow but they were still going to train.

"The match was hectic," Mateo said before crashing down on his bed. "Especially for you." He added.
