This is where your partner threw you under the bus. The discussion with the coaches after the game only backed the bus over you again.

From this point on, your credibility was zero, which led to all of the other arguments, discussions, ejections, etc.

Yes, there were lots of things for you to learn from in this game, but the first one is get a new partner.
