keeper = int(keeper)
In your version, it would go on line 14 or 15.

2,908 PointsLine 13 you are asking for user input so the keeper would need an 'input' like you did at the start ie. (keeper = input("Please choose a goalkeeper...")
Because of that, the input function in python stores a string, so when performing a maths calculation you will need to convert this to an integer first. So line 16 should be ' .format(players[int(keeper) - 1])) '. Notice the int wrapping the keeper variable.
This will now run, but I'd recommend considering how to deal with incorrect inputs for example if the user enters a string instead of number in line 13.
