1. Do you get vexed up at the player?
unless it is a fixed game, no player will intentionally want to score his own goal and no player will feel happy afterwards being the reason why their team  lost especially in an important competition. the player already feels sorry for himself, and no matter the annoyance you have against the player it will not change anything.

2. Do you take it as a common loss by the team just like other days? or
It should be taken as a common loss because before you lose there is usually  a reason for the loss, and sometimes the reason for losing is the mistakes from your own team members.

I remember the 1994 World Cup in that match between Colombia and USA where USA had to win with 2:1 scores courtesy of an own goal from the Colombian Andres Escobar which was believed to have made USA won that game leading to the disqualification of the Colombia to the next round. It was gathered that Escobar was shot dead while inside his car days after that game. An action organized by a punter who lost his huge bet because of that 2:1 loss of Colombia to USA team. The idea was that it was the own goal from Escobar that help USA to win and qualify in that game. Although the culprits were arrest and penalized.

In recent times we have witnessed countless own goals from player's in football competitors from the EPL, La Liga, Bundles Liga, Serie A  etc which had to change the outcome of a match that would have ended in favour of their team.
Now bringing this to gamblers of today; how do you feel when the team you bet in favour of lost the game due to an own goal from one of the teammate's?  

1. Do you get vexed up at the player?
2. Do you take it as a common loss by the team just like other days? or
3.  Do you curse the player for that?


It is always said that as a gambler you need to only stake what you can afford to lose, you don't put your entire life savings on a single game and when it doesn't go in favor of you then you want the whole world to crumble. Gambling is 50/50, it is either you win or you lose and that should be imbibe in the heart of every sports man. NO.2 is what I preferably take as my position whenever I'm face with such kind of situation, I would only get angry for just a period time and after then I move on. Once you're a regular football observer, you understand that football is always unpredictable even to the last minute.
