13 years ago the goalkeeper won the Champions League for Liverpool. On Saturday evening, the goalkeeper "The Reds" plunged his own club into the final. Jerzy Dudek in the stands in Kiev watched Loris Karius play the worst match in his life.
Karius is not a great goalkeeper. He is not even in the lead of German players in this position, he did not find the world championship squad. So he was on Saturday in Kiev like Ikar. He rose to the level unattainable for the Champions League final. After which he fell and killed not only himself, but also the Reds' dreams of winning the most valuable trophy.
It was quickly calculated that in Kiev he made more mistakes giving the opponent a goal (2) than in 32 previous matches of Liverpool. Juergen Klopp was able to prepare every tactical variant for this match, he could work out every rival from Madrid with a masseur and a man with gowns at the forefront. He could not, however, predict that his goalkeeper had two knees on his own team.
"We lost through my mistakes." Karius is apologizing
Just after the match, Karius began to cry - he knew that he deprived Liverpool of the chance to win the trophy. He admitted this in a conversation on the radio broadcast by the British radio "Talk Sport". - My mistakes cost us this final. I am sorry ... sorry for everyone - he confessed, moved.
