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.

Lave City players had arrived with just fifty minutes left before the match began and after training on the pitch for about thirty minutes, all the players from both teams made their way down the tunnel to get ready for the match.

Emma was already on the pitch with a microphone in her hand just like she had said and just as Dave was about to walk past her, she waved at him with a smile on her face.

Dave returned the wave before heading down the tunnel.

"Do you know him?"

Emma almost jumped up in fright at the way his male Co-worker had sneaked up on her from behind.

"I've told you to stop sneaking up on me like that Matthew." She grumbled.

"Sorry," Matthew said, scratching the back of his head.

"That's what you always say and you will still say it after doing it again." She said,

"I promise this is the last time." He said.

"I hope you're not one of those people that doesn't understand the meaning of making a promise and goes around breaking them."
