An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Joseph Kudus knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.
Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Liberty Professionals is running low.
