Chelsea fans troll Kepa after ‘school boy’ mistake against Napoli in the Champions League

Chelsea fans ridiculed Kepa Arrizabalaga after the goalkeeper's costly error during the UEFA Champions League match against Napoli.

Kepa became a target for online mockery due to his fundamental mistake, which resulted in Madrid conceding a goal in the high-profile Group C showdown at the Stadio Diego Maradona.

Although the 29-year-old goalkeeper has not reached the level of Thibaut Courtois, who suffered a cruciate ligament injury, he has performed reasonably well.

However, his occasional errors, which became a familiar sight during his time at Chelsea, resurfaced once more.

Kepa's 'school boy' mistake

The Spanish goalkeeper found himself out of position after losing an aerial duel with a Napoli attacker. Regrettably, the rebound landed at the feet of Leo Ostigard, who capitalized on the opportunity with an unstoppable shot, per 90Min.

We’ve been wondering where the Kepa we love so much went, he’s here!???????? pic.twitter.com/IMWucawZF0

"Kepa reminding me of why I didn’t regret seeing him leave. He’s so weak aerially."
@sergio_de_ennin quizzed:

"What were you thinking, Kepa?"
@nyannthierry made a mockery of the Chelsea loanee's missed punch:

"Kepa Arrizabalaga missing a punch from a corner kick is something I got so used to at Chelsea. LOOL."
@centro241, who appeared to be a Real Madrid fan, fumed:

"Kepa!!! Of course, keeps on costing us. Courtois definitely punching this out."
