I think the team is too complacent and expects easy results. They were embarrassed the previous game and therefore they got off to a real energetic start. They didn't score in the first but then were finally rewarded with a nice goal in the second. Then they figured "OK, now we're set" and relaxed, only to be scored on right away. They rallied a bit from that and re-established their play. To me it then looked like they figured "OK,. it's tied but we're clearly the better team" and relaxed into a lazier game. Of course they then got scored on twice and were in too big of a hole to get out. Gio being gone only made it worse.
