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.

Last Chance

The clock had just entered the seventieth minute with Litno FC still leading by two goals to one.

The rhythm of the game changed a little bit with the introduction of Mateo and Merino.

One problem Ina Shaw had in the left wing was the speed to get past the right back in charge of keeping him at bay but that speed was something Mateo had in abundance and coupling it with his skills made it easy for him to get past the right back most of the times.

Merino wasn't that much of a fast player compared to Carlos but he was a very technical player and a difficult one to mark and even if he didn't know how to get past a player, he always knew how to find his teammates with deadly passes.

The ball was passed to Minino in the center of the pitch but before he could get his foot to it, Roberto swooshed in from behind and stole it.
