3-2 countdown! Lampard is watching the Premier League dream break, Coventry falls in the playoffs twice in two years

On May 13, the second leg of the semi-finals of the Championship upgrade playoffs was thrilling. Sunderland was in a heavy rain at home. Coventry came to fight back with the disadvantage of falling behind in the first leg. Lampard was so anxious that he was spinning on the sidelines, and his eyes were so eager that he could stick to the court.

They once equalized the total score. Who would have thought that in the last moment of overtime, Sunderland headed the ball to the bottom of the crossbar and bounced into the net. The ball was like a bomb, directly shattering Coventry's Premier League dream. The player slumped on the ground, and the away stage was silent.

Coventry started the season awful and struggled on the edge of the relegation zone until Lampard took over, and the team seemed to be pressed to the fast forward key and rushed into the play-offs. This should have been the climax of an inspirational story, but fate has caused trouble. Last year, he lost a penalty in the play-off final and was defeated in the semi-final this year. He fell on the road to upgrade for two consecutive years. Who can stand this blow?

As a Chelsea legend, Lampard's coaching journey was stumbling. This time he took over Coventry and wanted to make a comeback. When he led the team into the playoffs, he looked light. Unexpectedly, the key battle dropped the chain. The team was full of opposition, but the defense line was distracted at the last moment of overtime, and the opponent seized the opportunity and gave a fatal blow. After the game, his face turned pale and the fans felt uncomfortable. He had worked hard all season long, but he was not as good as this.

Sunderland can be regarded as a professional counterattack. His condition in the late stage of the league was poor, and he relied on others to enter the play-offs. He lost consecutively before at home so no one was optimistic about it. As a result, he took the final victory and saved himself. Their opponent Sheffield United in the final was even more legendary. He never won the play-offs before. This showdown between the two teams at Wembley is destined to be a tough battle that rewrites their destiny.

Coventry's exit was heartbreaking, and they fought for a whole season from relegation to the play-offs, but fell to the last step. Lampard's coaching career has added another hurdle, but football is so unreasonable. You never know what will happen in the next second. The moment of winning is how crazy it is and how cruel it is when losing is. But it is this uncertainty that makes us laugh and cry for it and never let it go.
