Chris Rigg & The whole of Sunderland after 10 minutes… Swipe right for 90 minutes 😉 Winning at St James’ Park… special. Knowing what it means to this city ❤️🤍 That makes it even bigger 🥹 But if I’m honest… I had to do it the hard way. 10 minutes in… mistake. And in that moment, you feel like the ground could swallow you up. Like you’ve let down a whole city. That feeling is real. And it’s horrendous. But this is where the work kicks in. For years I’ve worked on my mindset for moments like this and it’s something I now try to pass on to the young players we mentor through Inner Game Academy. Breathe. Self talk. Next action. Not “why did I do that?” Not “what are people thinking?” Just… next action. It all sounds simple in theory. Putting it into practice in moments like that is the hard part. Every player makes mistakes. The best players don’t dwell. They respond. I’m so proud of this team. They had my back when I needed it most. And after the error, they kept demanding from me and from each other relentlessly. To win it in the 90th minute at St James’… That’s one I will never forget ❤️🤍 P.s. Why are there loads of empty seats in the background?
