As the final whistle blew, the sky darkened and the wind picked up, as if even nature was mourning Derby County’s defeat. The rain began to pour down, matching the tears that streamed down Mr. Mausdley’s face as he wept openly in front of his students. The thunder rumbled in the distance, echoing the disappointment and frustration felt by the defeated team and their fans. The pathetic fallacy was in full force, as the weather mirrored the emotions of those affected by the outcome of the game.
