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

Fred's failed attempt to head the ball into the goalpost was the last effort of the first half, leaving Unique FC to complete the first forty-five minutes of the game still one goal behind.

They were clearly the most dominant side in the match so far.

However, it took more than just being dominant to win a game of football, being dominant means nothing if the team lacks the capability to finish their chances.

All Real Sociedad needed was a little bit of luck for that ball to fall to Merino and a moment of swift decisiveness from the midfield maestro to put the ball away neatly.

That said, the Spanish side was on edge for most of the first half; with the way Unique FC were constantly terrorizing their defence, nobody knew how the second half was going to end if the game was to continue that way.
