#Most embarrassing moments in soccer series
Fortunately, the Wolves and Towns responded in a big way and tied the series in Game 4. Whatever the explanation is, it will never make sense to me how you could miss such a significant difference twice in the same game. Perhaps it was because Karl-Anthony Towns was tired of all the nonsense he was talking about during the game, as he only took two shots from the field in the second half, finishing the game with eight points in 34 minutes. I’m not sure if it happened because Minnesota’s head coach, Chris Finch, forgot in the fourth quarter that timeouts were a thing and instead decided to watch Memphis score 21 points on consecutive possessions to his team. But what was the end result? A 104-95 victory for the Grizzlies. The Minnesota Timberwolves built leads of 26 and 25 points over the Memphis Grizzlies at two different points in the game. I still can’t believe this happened: I’ve seen an NBA team blow a 20-point lead in a postseason series before, but two? Two advantages of more than 20 points in the same game? And the opponents came back at the end with a nearly 10-point difference? It has to be the first time in my life that I’ve seen such an embarrassing situation for a team that made the playoffs. Their fourth was a similar story with Maguire too slow to close down Roberto Firmino, leaving the left side of United's defence exposed for Salah to score his second.Īnother disastrous afternoon for the Sheffield-born defender was rounded off in the second half when a through ball from Jordan Henderson sliced open the defence for Salah to complete his hat-trick and complete United's joint-heaviest Premier League home defeat.Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns argues a call during Game 3 of an NBA basketball first-round playoff series against the Memphis Grizzlies Thursday, April 21, 2022, in Minneapolis. Maguire blocked an initial shot from Mo Salah but was too slow to react to the loose ball as the Egyptian stole in to score the third past David de Gea.

Low: Sending off against WatfordĮarlier this season, Man United were humbled 5-0 by Liverpool at Old Trafford and Maguire contributed with a truly comical performance given a rock-bottom rating of 0 by the Manchester Evening News. Maguire has held the captaincy ever since, despite Cristiano Ronaldo's return, which has reportedly caused some friction within the Old Trafford dressing room. I've been, not surprised, but I've been impressed by his leadership skills, so Harry will keep on wearing the armband." When Ashley Young left Man United in January 2020, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer handed Maguire the captaincy, despite the centre-back having only been at Old Trafford for half a season.īefore officially being given the armband, Maguire had already led out United on 20 occasions during the first half of the campaign and Solskjaer said of his decision: "He's come in and been a leader of the group. Planet Sport looks at the peaks and troughs of his time at United. But although the Sheffield-born defender has endured his fair share of lows with the Red Devils, he has also experienced some highs, especially while on international duty. Now 29, it appears unlikely the former Leicester City man will ever justify his huge price tag. A 4-1 loss to Manchester City at the weekend again put Maguire under the microscope, with the centre-back culpable for at least one of the City goals.
