Errr because he put the ball in his own net mainly.

To say that a goalkeeper should have shouted between the space of a ball being put across the goal mouth and it being in his net a second later is absurd.
He wouldn't have got the K of keepers out of his mouth in that millisecond let alone shouted.
I'm all for looking at what went wrong but I can't see how anybody can dig out Smithies for this one.
