If your favourite sports team does poorly, your work could suffer. Researchers polled a group of soccer fans and found that the day after their team lost a game, it negatively affected their mood, work engagement and job performance. This can happen because your attachment to a particular team is part of your identity. So, if your team loses you feel like you’ve lost something personal to you; therefore affecting your life and many aspects of it. (Photo: xoNecole)
