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.

How Fast Are Your Reflexes?

The players were on the bus now heading back to the hotel and as always, Dave was sitting right next to Mateo who was going through his phone with his earphones in his ears.

Dave was also minding his business going through his phone until Mateo quickly pushed his phone right in front of him to show him a video, he also unplugged his headphone so that the goalkeeper would hear what was going on in the video.

Just five seconds into the video, the winger's phone began to vibrate, and quickly transitioned from the Facebook app to the call screen.

"So-fi-a." Dave slowly read out the name of the caller before Mateo slowly pulled his phone back and plugged in his headphones.

He slowly shifted away from the goalkeeper to the far end of his seat and turned to face the window before clicking the answer button.

"I didn't even get to watch the video." The goalkeeper muttered before bringing his phone back up to his field of view.

'Just show me my post-match rewards, Catherine.'
