We saw it coming
We could have sealed our fate last week playing at home against the defending champions Giant Pandas but, as usual, we were not able to win despite more chances and ball possession. As we stated last PR, by that moment we had played 12 matches and in 10 of them we were better than the opponent, something hard to believe looking into the table and to the 13 points we had.
This time around we decided to try what so many had done before against us. Super defensive formation (and unexpected), and "let's see what we can get".
Of course, nothing.
Although we had the slight benefit of guessing one point out of our tactics clash, the opponent crushed us with 7 chances and 4 goals out of it. Neither we were able to reduce their volume, nor we were able to maintain their score at zeros (far from it). I wonder why, in the first half of the season, the same logic did not prevail...as for the other 9 matches I talked about. Specially when we received Perak Bar, with the exact same conditions tactic-wise.
We don't care anymore. We did enough to be on the Xpert League next season, and we proved the worst team of the division (on paper) could outplay and outsmart the large majority of all teams that invest to win, but unfortunately we were not allowed to turn that evident superiority into goals, it seems. We still have a chance if Thanos beats Giant Pandas and we win against SV Donau Wien (which only victory was against us, how come...), but it is highly unlikely of both happening.
What I can say is that one way or the other, the probabilities will remain intact: either we go down 2 seasons after we were dethroned or the current champion is relegated in its defending season.
And there go 24 seasons on those patterns. "Coincidences" of a rigged game...
