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 Day Off

"Hey, Dave! Mateo over here!"

Just as they stepped onto the pitch, Sofia started yelling their names while waving toward them but that wasn't enough.

"I can't believe you guys actually came." She said with a bright smile on her face after getting close enough to them.

"Well, today's going to be our last free day before we leave here so our coach told us to get a little breather before the last two matches," Dave explained.

"Last free day? When are you guys leaving?" She asked before turning her gaze to Mateo.

"Um….we'll play against Real Sociedad on Sunday and then leave on Monday." The winger said.

"Oh, well, never mind that, come there's something that I want to show you." She said before grabbing Mateo by his arm and pulling him along with him.

Dave watched them until they got to the middle of the pitch before he began to make his way to the area.

Unlike the last time they were here, the girls' coach was here today and he was really glad to have them there.
