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.

Strong Influence

The locker room celebration seemed to be quite louder than usual and that was expected because the match that just ended was a very important match for them and they got so close to losing it that that comeback came as a shock to them also.

They were chanting songs of jubilation so loudly that nobody could even speak in the room and hear what he said clearly.

Just like always, Dave didn't feel like joining them and the same could be said for Mateo who was sitting beside him.

But, unlike Dave, Mateo seemed to be quite interested in all the running around they were doing while Dave just sat there.

'Only sixty experience points, that's expected.'

<Yeah, but you did quite well without the system>

'Yeah, but I was caught off guard, things wouldn't have gotten so intense if I was prepared for what was going to happen.'
