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.

My Goalkeeping System

"Mateo Smith managed to score just a single hat trick last season and it came against Frono pretty late in the season campaign, but this is just their fourth match of the season and he already has a hat trick." Jim articulated. "And with this hat trick, he has now gone above Roland Hills in the golden boot race, he now has seven goals while Roland still has five."


"Seven goals in four matches is pretty insane," Steve said.


"Yeah, it is insane," Jim said. "There's no coming back from this one for Lesica United, they could try to salvage a consolation goal but the hosts aren't going to make that easy for them."


Just like Jim said, Unique FC weren't going to make things easy for them as they had finally decided to park the bus after that third goal.


There were seven minutes of added time, but Lesica United weren't able to do anything meaningful with it until the referee blew his whistle thrice to bring the match to an end.
