When the forward (or whoever) gets a touch and it goes in at the front post, that's on the defender(s).

It looks silly sometimes but them's the teachings.
Hmmm, not convinced, red. If that was the teachings every time a cross came into the box the keeper would move to the far post, which doesn't happen.

Raya had to look at the flight of the ball and the positioning of the striker and decide what was most likely to happen. Not easy, he had a split second to take that decision, but I think he got it wrong. The cross was fairly flat and directly at the striker, I think he should have held his central position.

Still, means little compared to how **** the rest of the team were
