Imagine being a footballer becoming the biggest shithouser after winning the semi final, taunting every single England fan. But in the final, he ends up losing the match for his nation because he got sent off. Well, this is the story of Enzo Fernandes. Red card against Spain. And before we get into this story, consider following for more. So, to kick off this story, let's take you back to the semi between England and Argentina, where Enzo Fernandes would score a brilliant goal that would help Argentina win the match. But after the game, Fernandes had one thing in mind, and that's to wind up the England fans in every way possible. He would assist in holding up a Falklands banner. He would post a picture on Instagram of him laughing with the song being Wonderwall. And he would ignore the majority of England players once shaking hands after the match. And it's fair to say he became the most hated player in England in this moment. But karma would end up striking for Enzo Fernandes, because in the World cup final against Spain, he would get booked for descent towards the referee. And then just moments later, he would go late in the in on Pau Cubati and the referee had no choice but to send him off. And as a result of this red card, Argentina were a man down and Spain were able to capitalise on this man advantage and go on and win the World Cup. But I can't lie, this was a beautiful sight.

Why this structure worksIn Gaming, this could be about a 'trash-talker' who wins a round, mocks his opponent, but then gets banned or loses a match because of a rage-quit. In Cooking, this could be about a 'rude chef' who mocks home cooks for using cheap tools, only to have his expensive equipment fail during a high-stakes competition. Both rely on the emotional payoff of seeing arrogance met with failure.
