I sometimes secretly love to see my teams struggle or get a bad call out of the gate that changes the match, specifically this 2010 team. Hell, it’s how I train. Bad ref costume is on all the time. They are often pissed at me for it, in a competitive sense.
But I enjoy watching them adapt even more. Taking minimal cues in the moment and relying on their own mind and their team to help unwrap the game. Staying resilient. Seeing them come out a little rusty, going down early, watching the opponent close one avenue, seeing that they are trusting themselves on the ball and their team around them enough to work out a solution.
Hard to find a better Saturday morning than that. Welcome back.
