Karius will play a final again, after the ‘bloopers’ in the Champions League against Real Madrid

We all remember that final Champions League between Real Madrid and Liverpool, during the 2017-18 season. Perhaps the most striking thing about that match was the double ‘blooper’ of Loris Kariusthen ‘The Reds’ goalkeeper, who conditioned the result.

Almost five years after that night to be forgotten, the German will once again play a final under the three sticks. Newcastle found themselves in this situation due to the expulsion of Nick Pope, the starting goalkeeper, against Liverpool. The second option, Martin Dubravka will not be able to make a presence either because he was entered in the contest by the ‘Red Devils’.

“I know what kind of person he is. He is brave, he is confident, he is a very good goalkeeper. He’ll be mentally ready, he’ll be physically ready, no problem. I’m not worried about that,” said Trippier, a teammate.

The presence of Karius in the goal of ‘Las Urracas’ causes astonishment, taking into account that his last official match was played more than two years ago (February 28, 2021) with Unión Berlin.
