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.

Turning The Tides

"Mateo shoots! Mateo scores!"

The winger offloaded a shot toward the bottom right side of the post where the keeper couldn't deal, he dived toward the ball but he couldn't get his hand to it on time as the ball rolled into the back of the net.

"Unbelievable!" Jim exclaimed as the winger took off to the sidelines and was pulled down by Merino on the way before his teammates began to fall on his body.

"Unique FC's magic man has done it again, that's magisterial!"

The fans were screaming and clapping in joy even some of the opposing fans were clapping after witnessing that goal from Mateo Smith.

"Mateo! Mateo! Mateo!"

That was what the fans were chanting.

"They've finally gotten that equalizer and still have enough time to push for a winner all thanks to their boy wonder," Steve said.

"Yes!" Mateo yelled after getting up from the floor, then he turned and waved to the fans before making his way back to their side of the pitch so that the match could continue.
