There was a mix of cheers and ps as Unique football club marched into the pitch but in the mix of those cheers and ps were booes all directed at one person.


    "What is he still doing in the squad? Isn''t it clear that he''s the one that has been selling all those matches!" One of the enraged fans shouted to make sure everyone heard him.


    "Give him a break honey, he''s trying his best it''s not like we are going to get relegated." The blonde-haired female who happened to be his wife said.


    Unique FC was sitting in the 10th position with twenty-five matches already yed and today they were going to face league leaders Supreme United.


    This was a very important match for Unique FC because winning would take them to 9th ce and give them more chances to fight for a ce in one of the European tournaments next season.


    Both teams lined up in ordance and after that, the two captains went to the referee for the coin toss which would indicate which goal area they would be attacking.


    After the coin toss, Unique FC moved to the left side of the pitch while Supreme United moved to the right side.


    The match was being yed in the home of Unique FC and that was one of the reasons why they needed to win it, but most of their fans didn''t quite believe they would be able to achieve their goal because of one person, the goalkeeper.


    Dave walked to his goal post trying to keep his morale high because the booes he was receiving from the fans were already demoralizing him.


    Unique FC yers were putting on a green jersey with orange and ck designs running down the jersey in the form of iplete stripes while Supreme United yers putting on a in red jersey with Supreme embedded in the chest of the jersey, they were being sponsored by an organization named supreme.


    Unique FC on the other hand were being sponsored by an organization called Webnovel and they had their logo and name on their jersey.


    The number one with the name Dave above the one could be seen as Dave walked to his goal post and turned to face the opposition goalpost.


    "Don''t let what they are doing get to you, Dave." His teammate with long hair said as he touched him on his shoulder. "Just try your best."


    He had the captain badge which indicated that he was the captain.


    "Ok," Dave said and took a very deep breath.


    The captain nodded and turned to face the opposition, revealing his back which disyed the number three on it with Adolf written above the number.


    Unique FC were the ones to start the game with the kick-off and immediately after the whistle was blown by the referee they did just that, putting the game in progress.


    There was a spell of possession from Unique FC as they passed the ball around in their own half, the Supreme United yers were trying hard to dispossess the Unique FC yers off the ball but they were doing a great job in keeping possession after all their neat passes and long possession spells was something that made them threats even to big teams.


    A pass was yed through to Norman Kole the Unique FC right back and without waiting for the ball to stop he yed a through cross to their talisman on the left-wing, Mateo Smith.


    Mateo caught the ball and with nice footwork got past Supreme United''s right back and yed a very nice cross into the box.


    "Mateo tries to get through and as always he gets through." Thementator said.


    Unique FC''s center-back George Neville was there to meet the ball with a great leap above the Supreme United yers, he ced the ball to the bottom left but he was met with disappointment as Supreme United''s goalkeeper made a great dive towards the ball and caught it.


    "That was a nice cross and header but Carl was equal to it." Thementatormented.


    The goalkeeper quickly got up on his feet and kicked the ball ahead to the supreme United yer in the center while Unique FC''s wing backs were still in their own half.


    Immediately the yer got the ball he ran past Adolf the only center back close to him and now he was heading for goal with no opposition except for Adolf who was hot on his trail.


    "Rnd is on the right track to score his twentieth league goal but Adolf seems to be hot on his trail."


    Dave was confused about what to do as Rnd approached his post, it was certain that if he stayed there, Rnd was going to score the goal so he decided to do something for the first time in his life.


    "What''s this? Dave is taking the role of a sweeper keeper."


    Before Rnd could enter the eighteen-yard box Dave was already upon him with a slide, this caused Rnd to release the ball with a lob, Dave managed to get a hand to it but it was still flying towards the and was going to enter.


    "The ball is flying towards the now but wait."


    Adolf who had been behind Rnd the whole time raced towards the ball and just before it could fly into the from above he ced his head in the way and nodded it over the bar.


    "Wow! What a magnificent save from the super captain Adolf Alexia."


    Rnd covered his mouth with his hand as he couldn''t believe what just happened, Dave''s hand had slowed down the ball and that had given Adolf enough time to get to it.


    All the defenders were hugging Adolf as they knew what that save meant to them but now they were going to try and keep out the air masters of Supreme United because the ball had gone out for a corner.


    "Mark every one of them," Adolf said as he got in position on thest bar.


    The referee blew the whistle and the ball came flying from the right corner, one of  Supreme United''s yers jumped high to catch the ball and nodded it high on the right side of the post but Adolf was there to nod it away.


    "Another save from the super captain." Thementator said.


    Apuse and loud cheers wereing from the fans but that wasn''t the end as the ball fell to the feet of Rnd just outside the box.


    He feigned shooting as a defender came running towards him and with a spin, he went past the defender, he dribbled past another yer, and then sent the ball to the bottom left of the post.


    "That''s a goalllllll!!!! Wonderful football from Rnd Hills he''s got that twentieth goal now!"


    Supreme United Fans were jumping up and down as Rnd raced to the corner and did a slide as his teammates came running after him.


    Dave, who had been glued to the middle of the post when the ball came flying, fell to the floor now with his hands covering his face.


    "Oh, it''s one of those nights for Dave Richards again." Thementator said.


    "I know Dave may be a bad goalie but that shot was unstoppable, Rnd is unstoppable." Another voice said.


    Indeed it was one of those terrible nights for Dave and Unique FC as a whole, this was only the beginning.
