You have to feel for the guy.
Reading goalkeeper Adam Federici was inconsolable after his extra-time howler handed Arsenal a 2-1 victory in the FA Cup semi-final, at Wembley, on Saturday.
Federici’s gaffe – in allowing a tame Alexis Sanchez shot squirm past him – cost the Championship side dearly.
The Wembley tunnel camera has captured stark footage of a crestfallen Federici following the final whistle.
Post-match, Reading boss Steve Clarke said, ‘It’s the life of a goalkeeper. Adam is obviously very upset, because he feels responsible for the defeat. It’s much better in a game like this that if you have to lose you lose to a moment of brilliance. That’s not the case today.
‘As I said after the game, we win together, we lose together. Adam is a strong character. All the players are 100% behind him, the staff are 100% behind him – he’ll bounce back . On Wednesday night when we play Birmingham, he’ll be typical Adam Federici – one of our best players.’
Here is the full video. Federici makes an appearance 5:20 in.
