In soccer, at what point does a losing margin become embarrassing? I assume losing like 2-0 isn’t that bad, but what about losing by 3 goals? Or is it beyond 3 where it gets embarrassing?
5-0 and above. 4-0 if you're insecure.
>>151003898>2-0Most dangerous lead>3-0Opponent was simply better>4-0Opponent was better + you played like shit>5-0You only tried for one half>6-0 and aboveEmbarrassing. You didn't even try from the beginning

I think the cutoff is 0-3 it just happens but at 0-4 I would think about firing the coach. Then again it needs some scaling context like a 100mil team playing a team on a 5mil budget and beating them 5-0 is meaningless.
Score is irrelevant, it's embarrassing at the moment the leading team is starting to style on the other and they still can't do nothing.Like when Germany was crushing Brazil it was more sad than anything but when they started scoring goals by literally passing the ball to the guy who hasn't scored yet then it became embarrassing.

>>1510038984-0 is when it starts getting embarrasing. 3-0 can be either unlucky or embarrasing depending on how badly they were dominated

3-0 seems like an extremely rare scoreline nowadays.
why is a 5-3 loss considered heavier than a 3-0 loss? what fucking sense does that make
>>151003898Depends on the level of the teams involved, obviously.Hintershartendorf losing 0-4 to Hühnchen is respectable, Dortmund losing 0-3 is not.
>>151003898I think playing soccer is embarrassing the score doesn't matter
