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.

Aiming Too High

It had been three minutes since the match kicked off and so far Unique FC were still with the ball.

They weren't trying to rush things to avoid making any mistakes but still, it didn't look like their attempts to get past their opponents were working so they stuck to moving the ball around while trying to drag them out for now.

Dave had to snap out of his head after a while but he was still sort of pissed off that the system had to shut down like that.

This wasn't the first time the system was shutting down on him in the middle of a match but still, this felt like the first time to him, perhaps that was because of the quest he received which was tied down to the system shutting down.

<I thought you said the relevance of the system was starting to fall out for you>

'If you're going to say something I said at least quote me right, I never said the relevance fell off, just said I'm not that dependent on it anymore, and isn't that a good thing?'
