Tim Krul wasn't at fault for the two goals (although he did make it very easy for Bafetimbi Gomis) but his general performance was cagey and his kicking was extremely poor. The shot-stopper looks uncomfortable with Fabricio Coloccini and Chancel Mbemba in front of him and appeared frustrated at his defenders' commitment for both goals.
