I suspect the keeper wasn't ready/expecting the shot when it came and it is hard for a keeper if they can't set themselves. They need a second reaction time.
It was a cracking shot from the enigma that is Corey Blackett-Taylor. The keeper probably thought like most of the Charlton fans that Row Z was the likely target !

He must've changed boots at half-time. Couldn't hit a barn door in the 2nd half!
Not sure many goalkeepers or goalie coaches would be as sympathetic.
He actually had clear sight of Corey from when he received the ball, which I've just measured at approx 40 yards.
He misread the player, his intentions and his strike. That's why he looked a fish out of water when it went in.
That's my take. Bet if you'd ask the keeper he would say he should have done better but am sure a consolation card from a few CL members might help him through it!

To be fair to their goalie, he was probably expecting the ball to hit row Z like the rest of us.
I said it at the time, it was a fantastic goal but once it goes in you just know that CBT is going to shoot EVERY TIME he gets in the box for the remainder of the match and we all know the result of these efforts
