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.

There Is A Chance

After having Unique FC players gather around him to plead their case, the referee finally decided to go check VAR.

"Looks like he's decided to go check VAR," Steve said.

"Yeah, while he's going to do that, how about we take a look at that footage again, Steve?"

"It's a good thing he decided to go check VAR," Dave muttered from his goalpost.

<You know this could work for or against you>

'And what do you have to say? You should be able to know if Fredinho was offside or not.'

<Let the referee come back I want to see what decision VAR made first>

The players from both teams and fans waited anxiously for the referee to return and it didn't take long for that to happen as the referee could be seen making his way to the pitch now.

"The referee's coming back, what's going to be his decision?"

As soon as the official entered the pitch, he blew his whistle before pointing to the kick-off spot.
