It was a very unlikely win. Some, if not all players on this team have day jobs.

      Yeah, probably not for them. I don’t really follow sports, but I thought it was kinda neat that a relatively small and unknown team (that appears to do it part-time) beat a pro team. Pretty uncommon!

    After repeating this news to my Indian wife, she didn’t believe me. She even called it fake news lol. “From the NY Times?”, I asked. She said there must be some mistake and still doesn’t believe it. That is how surprising this match result is.

      Believe me, I was surprised, too. I didn’t know we even had a team, haha.
