The Everton defender was at fault for the opening goal of the game, coming within the first minute of the match as a mixup at the back saw Kosovo take the lead early on.
As you would expect, the former Burnley defender was the subject of criticism from England supporters for his mistake as many flocked to social media to take aim at Keane for his error.
