Looking at some of the criticism that happened after the match I wouldn't criticize him too much because it would only add to the burden for a player who will definitely be affected in terms of mentality when he misses 2 penalties and the club he defends must lose with a painful score because of his goal in extra time.
To be honest it is a bit unfortunate but if you continue to blame Balogun for his penalty failures it will only add a heavy burden to himself so I think it would be better if he was given more motivation so as not to be down and I like Adi Hutter's actions who continue to support Balgun when he must have experienced a shock in terms of this match.

Even some of the world's best players have missed a penalty and i don't know why some fans would be criticising him like it's the first time someone has lost a penalty, he's a very good player and was very impressive for the team last season and him not being able to score the two penalties he missed doesn't make him less of a good finisher he was just so unfortunate today and would need the support of the fans to help build his confidence so as to do better next time.

I think the fans and other team mates should imitate Adi Hutter and encourage their player to perform better because cruising him would put more pressure that would cause a burden to him and in return affect his performance, these players ate human being and are liable to make mistakes as well so it not a good thing to criticise a good player due to a little error.

That's what fans should think about, after all, no matter how good a player must have made a mistake in the match he played and 2 missed penalties in one match is a little difficult to accept but fans must also realize that the match is not only 1 because it is precisely with criticism like this that makes a player's mentality especially young players down.

I think this can be a motivation or a blow to Balogun. When Balogun takes this as a positive thing then I'm sure he will develop better and have a strong mentality but otherwise if this is taken as a blow and he can't get up from the slump due to the criticism received then this will further worsen his performance on the field because his mentality is disturbed.
