Yay! This is the only way I'll ever make a soccer goal, so thanks for giving me this opportunity!

Blue goes first
CAKETURKEYLUCKCOLDRING
TEAINDIATHUMBMILLIONAIREWORM
CHURCHPYRAMIDKINGSTATENIGHT
KETCHUPMARCHCELLGREENDECK
POUNDDRESSAZTECGENIUSFINGER

Celebrity was meant to be Millionaire and Genius.
Torture was just desparation - I felt it had some vague links to Thumb, Deck, Worm, Turkey and Genius. But Night was more likely than some of those so it never would have worked.

Given that the only unchanging feature of these matches is that my side loses ... I certainly contributed to the awfulness.

I had expected some clue like Brin or Elon to connect those.

I might have tried Mozart 3 to connect TURKEY, MARCH, and GENIUS thinking of the alla turca piano piece https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Sonata_No._11_(Mozart). But, again, NIGHT would probably ruin it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eine_kleine_Nachtmusik

I can't think of any good connections either.

Penitentiary: 5
State, cell, night (thinking of long nights alone in a cell, or alternatively many of the activities that might land you in jail happen during night, church and pyramid (for being large buildings like a prison. Outside chance for cake (smuggling a file inside of one like in the cartoons), I missed pound totally.

Birthday: 2
Cake and night (day -> night, also parties happen at night), was a stretch but the rest felt easy to connect and I wanted to make them clue for Turkey before I go for India.

Gods: 4
Church, Pyramid, Aztec, India (hence the plural)

I thought Church was a pun on penitent. I hesitated though, in case someone might be offended.

I actually had to look up the word "penitentary" and was surprised it has nothing to do with church, while penitent has.

I had no idea and have just looked it up too. It seems it does have a variety of less-used (and older) meanings in some church institutions.

That's why it was a pun.
