    I wonder how much those 3 red cards have had an impact on the players’ mentality. Maybe they’re giving up for the same reasons that we’re deflated: it doesn’t feel like we’re allowed to win.

    But that’s no fucking excuse for some of the best players in the world.

      I wouldn’t be surprised. As a player you have to give your best every time, and if you play better than the other team you’re supposed to win. When it feels like the system is rigged against you, what’s the point?
