What is the meaning of the phrase "dead in the water" in this sentence?
GOAL! Norwich 1-3 Chelsea (Havertz 90')
That's the three points for the Blues!ÂÂ
It's neat build-up, with Kante passing square to Kai Havertz who thumps the ball into the top-corner with his left-foot.ÂÂ
A Norwich comeback now dead in the water.ÂÂ

If a team is 'dead in the water' it mans they have no chance of making a comeback.
