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.

The Last Thirty Minutes

With the match nearing the seventieth minute now, Fred had to make way for Mateo who Norman had finally decided to bring into the game.

They had gotten a couple of chances to seal the game so far in this half but with Giovanni being the beast he was in between the sticks, those chances didn't turn out quite well.

He had just barely over thirty minutes left so he had to do something or risk losing this game.

Mateo had gone through a lot of check ups before Norman made the decision to put him on the bench today.

There wouldn't have been any problem if he had decided to start him but he didn't believe that the winger was all that well and tried to see what he could do without him.

The winger was quickly making his way to the opposition box now as the home fans got up from their seats to applaud him.

It was a standing ovation, one that was very well expected.
