That Liverpool match! That had to be so disappointing letting the lead slip and missing multiple chances in the shootout to win it.
The team bounced back quickly and took care of business. A first cup win and now in league position to win it.
Having your captain miss the chance to lift the trophy is terrible luck. One of those small things fans will always remember if he's a loved captain at the club.

Liverpool defeat was thrilling, yes. Went into the shootout with such a poor ability on penalties compared to them. I'm usually able to score still, but somehow they just kept hitting the post. Awful. But at least I went out with a bang against a superior side. In the end that's how I prefer it, rather than going out against West Bromwich or such...
Losing the captain to a straight red in the overtime of the league game just before the final was terrible to be honest. The squad's current appearance leader, he really should have been there to lift the cup. It was also a pretty harsh red IMO. He might have been the "last man", when he committed a rather soft foul on the attacker. But the fouled player had just passed the ball to a teammate, who was marked by another Stockport player. So even though Horsfall was the "last man", he absolutely didn't deprive him of a clear goal scoring opportunity. So no red in my book.
