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.

Looking For A First Half Breakthrough

After that close attempt from Dave, the match continued, but so far, none of the sides had been able to produce a goal.

It wasn't exactly fair to say that Unique FC were dominating the game, but anybody watching the match would know that Bilbeth Premier League side looked more confident with the way they were moving the ball around, FC Basel seemed to be a bit disoriented, and were trying to get that confidence back into their play.

Henrique moved down the right wing with the ball and just before Roland could get to him, he quickly shifted the ball to the attacking midfielder in the middle.

The midfielder got hold of the ball, and without hesitation, he sent it rolling to Reto who quickly shifted it to Hans who was near the edge of the box now.

Hans didn't even think twice before he fired the ball toward the goalpost, the shot had a pretty heavy power on it, but unfortunately, it went directly toward Dave who didn't have any trouble stopping it.
