Shane Duffy Is Having A Worse Week Than You

I'm sorry, I don't actually know if you're having a worse week than Blackburn Rovers defender Shane Duffy. I don't mean to be presumptuous. It's quite possible you're having a worse week than Shane Duffy. If you are, hang in there. Get some sleep. It gets better.

But if you're not having a worse week than Shane Duffy, and it's very likely you're not, feel free to revel in this man's misfortune (soccer misfortune, obviously — real-life misfortune is nothing to revel in).

Duffy scored three goals this week, good enough to tie him for first in the English Championship. Unfortunately for Duffy, they were all own goals. Oh, and he got red-carded.

 

His week started out poorly with an own-goal in this weekend's 3-0 loss to Wigan Athletic.

(The own-goal play starts at 1:50 if you don't want to watch English Championship highlights)

It got even worse with an own-goal brace against Cardiff City on Wednesday, a match Blackburn lost 2-1, meaning Duffy's goals were the difference.

And then, it got even worse again when duffy was sent off after receiving a second yellow for kicking the ball at a Cardiff player.

Get some sleep, Shane. It gets better.
