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.

Wonderful Connection

That goal from Frank was quite the blow to Unique FC so close to the fast-approaching break, however, the home team did not falter.

On the contrary, they become more aggressive, desperate to find the equalizer before the halftime break.

However, their efforts yielded no results as Mateo continued to get frustrated by Dynamo FC's goalkeeper, Victor.

After that goal by Frank, the winger who was filling in the role of a midfielder at the moment, got two very good chances to level the game, two chances which he ended up squandering.

The first chance came from a through ball from Dave after Minino sent it back to the goalkeeper from the halfway line.

Dave was able to drop the ball right in front of him just on the edge of the box but before the youngster could do anything with the ball, Victor was already upon him, and with his gloves, the goalkeeper knocked the ball away from him, putting an end to the threat.
