In all fairness team was much better than mine, with 6*+ across the board, but this is probably the heaviest defeat I've ever suffered whilst my opponent maintained a clean sheet.
The next was a League match, losing 7-2 at home to a team 0.5 points worse than mine. My team contains six 6* players to his one, with all the rest being 5*. Seemed ever time his players got through my defence it was a guaranteed goal and nothing went wrong for him. I don't recall a single shot missing. In the end shots were 14/8 to me and 21/19 to him. Still an outside chance I could go on to win the league, but it's doubtful knowing my luck.
What really takes the cake was my getting knocked out of the semi final of the Cup. Team 1.1 points worse than mine won 2-1 in his home leg (his worst defender, 4*, getting MOM of course). The 1-1 draw today in my home leg was maddening. 6* striker randomly injured with 19 minutes, followed by one of my first choice midfielders at 61 minutes. 6* free kick specialist midfielder shot both chances straight into the wall. Had eight corners from a 5* corner specialist saved or cleared. He equalised, from a corner, in the 74th minute.
I'd be furious if I hadn't come to expect it from this season. Despite my good form in all competitions, I swear the commentary I hear the most is "but it clips the post and goes wide"
