<staying calm> Well, good stuff so far. Let's stick with this formation eh. 5 goals in 2 games. For the Farke out gang, the agony is prolonged...
Psychological & Emotional Amplification (The Clock Watching Effect) High Stakes Tension: If your team is winning by one goal, or desperately needs one goal to draw or win, the perceived risk of the clock running out (or the opponent scoring) triggers a massive release of adrenaline and cortisol. This state of high anxiety causes you to focus intensely on the passage of time. The Waiting Paradox: When you are actively waiting for an event to conclude, your attention is fixed on the duration itself. This intense, deliberate focus on the clock makes every second feel slower, a well-known psychological phenomenon. Goal Gradient Effect Reversal: Normally, time seems to speed up as you approach a goal. In injury time, you are desperately waiting for the end state (the final whistle), but you have zero control over achieving it. This lack of control amplifies the feeling that the end is receding from you.
Nobody could have predicted that. I retained faint hopes of maybe getting a point if we were lucky but this is something else.
Great stuff. Even came out from behind my sofa, defended really well. Nice to see us being the side capitalising on other teams fck ups for a change.
Oh dear. An awful night for the obsessed anti Farke brigade. Please god we won’t have to read that incessant ****e day after day anymore
