    The top dogs usually look down their noses at the underdogs. However, the team at the top might underperform due to choking. On the flip side, the underdogs could perform better than the top dogs because there is not a lot of expectation, and they can play naturally.

    Also, Leichester City's forward Jamie Vardy has an underdog story. He was a factory worker five years before the Premier League title. It is inspiring!

    The top dogs can look their noses at the underdogs. They get used to winning, so they believe that they can do it. On the flip side, the top dogs sometimes experience choking because many audiences expect them to win, which leads them to underperform. Whereas, the underdogs don’t experience any expectation or hard pressure, they are able to play naturally and win, then they are promoted from non-league to the Premier league.

    Being under pressure often leads people to underperform. It's not easy not to be anxious when you are expected to win

    I love underdogs stories, especially when top dogs look down their noses at them, and surprisingly underdogs overcome the top dogs.

    It is not right to look down your nose at someone. We had better do our part to lift up someone’s spirit if he or she needs help.😊
