Gotta be Leno, he made a number of great saves, though he didn't cover himself in glory for the first goal.

Leno? Great saves? Were you watching a different match? He made a total of three saves and none of them were particularly difficult. And yeah, on the first goal he opened up his legs too much for some reason and gave Semenyo a path to goal from an extremely tight angle which he gladly took. No, not the greatest mistake in the world (it was still a good/tough finish) but that's a goal I'd really like to see him prevent.

Have to agree here also, what match was that poster watching?  Clearly, in my view, Leno cost us this game.  Very poor on him with conceding the equalizer.  How he can't secure the near side better is hard to understand, and having said that, leaving the five-hole wide open for the score is just very poor.  And even the second goal, sure, a well struck ball by Kluivert, but from distance, Leno has to do much better.  We've seen a number of goals from distance that Leno has conceded these past several seasons, his positioning must be off or his reaction time is not very good.  For a top class keeper in this league, goals like that just can't be allowed to happen.  I certainly don't consider the first goal a 'worldlie', and even the second goal is debatable.  In sum, poor game from our keeper......

Agree with first goal, but very few keepers would have got to Kluivert shot.
