sorry this is so late!!!
I know Raya made a mistake and I know it gave Spurs a reason to rally, but I still feel 5.17 seems a little harsh. I understand why, but I felt like he did fairly well otherwise. Granted he didn't have too much to do before that point. He was plucking crosses out of the air like a frog to a fly.
On another day that could amount to nothing but a blip in the game that the team recovers from.
There is definitely some knee-jerkiness with that rating, but on the flip side, he had to make 0 saves, meaning that the spotlight was going to be dispropotionately pointed to his error. On top of that, I think most would agree that his error singlehandedly let Spurs back into it, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who blamed him for my heart rate spiking in the last 20 minutes of the match.
Fotmob gave him a 5.5 and WhoScored gave him a 5.11, so I don't even think our rating is out of line.
I completely understand it. I'm by no means saying he's not at fault for the mistake and you can definitely point to that as a key moment of when the momentum started to swing. You could also argue that it caused a domino effect where Rice ends up in an uncomfortable position that leads to the penalty, etc
I suppose I was more looking at it (although a limited viewpoint, lol) from an individual performance and not so much as a whole.
