How can I help ASD/ADHD son with football?

8 year old loves playing football, however he gets upset if his team loses (will physically cry and run off the pitch). How can I help him to control his emotions, at least until we’re in the car? He hates people looking at him, which of course is natural.

What is DS like at losing at other things? Is this something that is limited to only football, only sport or a wider issue?
