Further to the above, the art of making mistakes is to make sure that you make them when they don´t matter. That art we haven´t mastered yet, but then, no-one on here should expect us to, we´re still novices in this league. Case in point is naturally Rudd, for their first goal, he ´d have had just as much chance of preventing a goal, to have stood his ground and made himself look big, rather than charge out and dive at Kane´s feet, almost guaranteeing giving away a penalty - goodness knows why keepers do it. But then, older, wiser and far more experienced keepers than Rudd will do it, and are in fact doing it - Howard in Everton´s last home game, charging out and demolishing Vardy - ridiculous!
Can´t really say Spurs´s last two goals were down to mistakes, but by then the damage had been done, up until the penalty we were more than holding our own, and Spurs didn´t look at all special. Rudd, it has to be said though, did pull out a quite miraculous stop to foil an Alderweireld header later on, so he made the amends that he could.
