Goal keeping not great for first goal but badly exposed by needlessly giving the ball away and getting caught out of position by the right back. Second goal is a bog standard clearance missed at the front post, and third, enough said. Keeper maybe could have done better but defenders worse and more culpable.
The catalyst was giving the ball away by getting caught in possession deep in your own half.
