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.

On The Bench

The goalkeeper was the first to get up as usual and after sitting up on his bed and stretching himself, he turned to Mateo to see that he was still fast asleep on his bed.

'Pre-season tour match day two.' The goalkeeper said subconsciously before getting up from his bed.

Today was the day, the day they were going to face Benfica at the Reale Arena but unlike the match against Manchester United, this one was going to be taking place in the evening by 4:30 PM, so they had a lot of time to train, get ready and get there on time.

The training session kicked off at 8:30 AM after they all had their breakfast.

The training lasted for about two hours before they returned to start getting ready for their trip to the Reale Arena.

Norman had not told anything about the match tactics and the players who were going to be starting yet but he told them he was going to do that as soon as they finished having their lunch.
