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.

Weak With Aerial Balls

The match had just entered the twentieth minute and so far, things were still leveled between both sides according to the scoreboard.

However, Unique FC were the ones dominating the match so far but it was only by a little bit as Wolfsburg had used every opportunity they had gotten to put the Bilbeth Premier League side on edge, they had fired five shots toward their goalpost so far but all of them had been off target, the only shot that had come close to becoming a goal was the one that hit the left post before rolling off for a goal kick but Dave was on it anyway so there was high doubt that it would have gone in.

Unique FC had gotten two shots on target but there had been poor shots from Fred which were easily saved by the goalkeeper.

"Both teams have been getting their chances but they need to work on their finishing although one thing is quite certain," Jim said.

"What?" Steve said.

"Both goalkeepers have not been given the time to relax and that's how a match should be."
