My Goalkeeping System

With all the players out of the box now, the referee blew his whistle.

After hearing the whistle, Andy stared at the ball for a few more seconds before he slowly raised his head and took two steps backward.

\'You know I would really appreciate a few tips in situations like this.\'

<Well, you should have asked earlier>

Andy quickly closed up on the ball and sent it flying toward the left side of the goalpost from below while Dave dived toward the right side of the goalpost.

"It\'s in! They\'ve finally gotten that equalizer! What a finish from Andy!"

"He sent Dave the wrong way," Steve commented.

<As I said, you should have asked earlier>

\'Keep quiet, now I\'m two goals down.\'

Andy didn\'t really celebrate that goal, he just smiled before a few of his teammates got to him to either rub his head, give him a high five, or just hug him.

"They\'re back on level terms now," Jim said.

"I think this is the first time they\'re being on leveled terms, Unique FC didn\'t even wait for the first minute to pass before they took the lead." Steve expressed.

"Yeah, I guess you\'re right," Jim said. "By effort, Unique FC should be leading this match by at least three goals but their effort hasn\'t really paid off for them and now they\'re on leveled terms with Sheffield United, this is one of the aspects of football that I love the most, sometimes effort just isn\'t able to cut it but this is still the first half, it\'s going to come to end soon, let\'s see how Unique FC reacts before the break."

Carlos was standing over the ball now waiting for the referee\'s whistle and as soon as he heard it, he passed the ball to Mateo and at that point, a lot of people thought they were going to repeat that move but Mateo wasn\'t that stupid, he could clearly see that everyone in the position to quickly move forward was being heavily marked so he pushed the ball to Harry who quickly pushed it back to Jonas.

Jonas sent the ball to Adolf and Adolf quickly sent it rolling to Henry who quickly got past the player behind him and sent the ball to Minino.

"Minino."

Minino moved a little forward with the ball before he quickly turned and sent the ball flying back to Dave.

"He\'s sent it back to the goalkeeper which is a bit odd because he could have just passed it to any of his teammates but knowing what Dave Richards can do with the ball from that far, I\'m not surprised he sent the ball back to him." Steve expressed.

Dave initially wanted to try a shot until he spotted Mateo trying to escape from the player marking him.

He pushed the ball forward and just before it could get to the edge of the box, he sent it flying toward Mateo.

"I was expecting a shot but looks like he\'s decided to go for a long pass instead," Jim said.

The winger had to battle for the ball in the air and fortunately for him, he was able to win it but that didn\'t mean he was free from the player yet.

He struggled to keep the ball no matter the amount of physical pressure the player put on him and finally, he was able to send the ball to Fred.

"That was a real battle between those two there," Jim commented.

Jim got to the ball before the player heading toward it from the side and after getting his foot on the ball, he quickly shifted away from the player with it and now he had his sight on the goalpost.

The striker quickly pulled his leg back and launched the ball toward the goalpost with a powerful shot.

"He\'s going from outside the box?"

The ball was sent flying toward the top right-hand corner of the goalpost and although the goalkeeper had dived toward it, he just couldn\'t keep up with the speed so the ball ended up smashing into the back of the net as the goalkeeper crashed to the floor.

"Oh, what a massive strike from Fred! What a goal!" Jim exclaimed.

That goal would hype anybody up and Fred was part of anybody.

The striker quickly raced to the sidelines and slid on the floor with his whole body on the ground.

Mateo didn\'t hesitate to quickly make his way to the area and fall on his body before their other teammates joined.

"I didn\'t think he would try a shot from that far out but he tried it with a nice shot and it worked out fine for him, the goalkeeper just couldn\'t deal with it." Steve articulated.

"That was awesome," Dave muttered with a bright smile on his face.

<Yeah>

Sheffield United players had devastated looks on their faces, especially the goalkeeper who was sitting on his goal line. Who wouldn\'t be devastated to see themselves go behind again just a few minutes after leveling the game?

"We thought they could keep it leveled for long but Unique FC just couldn\'t agree with that, it\'s the same players stepping up to punish them again, Mateo struggled to give the ball to him and he made sure to put it away in the best way possible, it is now Unique FC two, Sheffield United one." Jim articulated.

The fans were very happy and were chanting the name of the team as the players returned to their positions for the kick-off after the goal.

Sheffield United tried their best to get it leveled again and managed to pull off two good chances but those shots weren\'t really a big deal for Dave although they were sort of tricky.

Unique FC managed to pull off one more chance, a good cross from Carlos to Mateo but the winger ended up sending the volley over the bar.

Unique FC did their best to hold on to the ball after that and they kept on holding onto the ball until the referee blew his whistle twice to bring the first half to an end.

"That was quite an epic first half, don\'t you think, Steve?" Jim asked.

"Yeah, it\'s been an entertaining match so far, Unique FC has clearly been the superior side but it\'s nice to see that Sheffield United are not getting completely overshadowed by them, they\'re trying their best and they\'re getting their chances." Steve expressed. "Unique FC\'s finishing has been better in this match and it\'s because Fred seemed to have worked on his finishing but they still need to work on it more, Sheffield United also needs to work on their finishing if they don\'t want to lose this match."

"The players are heading down the tunnel now and they\'ll be back soon to continue this entertaining match so stay tuned."
