when you lose in your head before anything has actually happened. a team goes 1 to 0 down in the first ten minutes and suddenly everyone starts playing like the game is already over. nothing has been decided yet. but once people start behaving as if defeat is inevitable, they often help create it. sometimes the first thing defeat takes is not the result. it is the belief that the result can still change.
