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.

Wasn't That Much

When Catherine said that things were about to get interesting, well she was onto something.

Now that Roland was no longer on the pitch, Fraser was beginning to run riot on the right side of the pitch.

He received the ball from Antonio just as Jonas was heading toward him, but just before the left-back could do anything to stop him, he trapped the ball with his chest and sent it flying over the left-back with a neat flick.

"Wooah!"

That could have ended badly for Unique FC if Pirlo had not been fast enough to brush the ball off the winger's feet and send it out for a corner kick.

"Nice defending from Pirlo, but now they have a corner kick to deal with," Steve commented.

'If things continue like this we may end up conceding a goal?'

<Yeah, I can see that happening>

'Coach should have at least kept Roland, I don't really feel that confident about keeping a clean sheet with Jonas on the pitch.'
