He covered the goal wrong. When defending direct free kicks the school of thought i prefer is to let the wall cover one side of the goal, with the keeper on the other. Look at the replay - Kirkland is behind the wall and can not see the ball as it is struck leaving him open to a powerful shot. The solution is to stand the other side and track the ball all the way to allow a save to be made.
