The Champions League final should have been a memorable occasion for Loris Karius and his family for all the right reasons.
But unfortunately for the Liverpool goalkeeper, two disastrous mistakes directly leading to two Real Madrid goals resulted in a nightmare of an afternoon.
Karius’ heartache was on show for the world to see upon the final whistle being sounded, as he walked towards the travelling Reds supporters and apologised with tears streaming down his face.
“What can I say? Loris knows it, everybody knows it. It’s a shame in a game like this and after a season like this. I really feel for him; he’s a fantastic boy,” said Klopp, speaking after the game.
“Nobody wants that, [but] that’s the situation. The mistakes were obvious, we don’t have to talk about that, it’s all clear; he knows it, I know it, you all know it.
“Now, he has to deal with it, we have to deal with it, we will do that, of course, we will be with him, there’s no doubt about that. It was not his night, obviously.”
