Looking at the celebrating City fans, the cameras around couldn't help but try to capture the contrast.
It went through the faces of the Wigan fans before somehow finding its way to Ashley Fletcher.
He was standing with his hands on his hips staring at the still celebrating city fans, and the commentator said what everyone was already thinking.
"He will be thinking about that for a long time."
A moment later, his head snapped back to his mates, mainly Darikwa and Max Power, who were already moving through the team, setting hands on shoulders as if it could comfort, while their voices raised, trying to keep the morale from dying any further.
But even they knew the math.
Playing on par with City, even outplaying them in moments, and still being behind meant the next goal had to be Wigan's and had to come soon.
But that also meant giving everything they had, even though it might not even work out for them in the end.
