Iker Casillas defends Liverpool's Loris Karius

Jul 23, 2018

Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas has jumped to the defence of Liverpool's under-fire goalkeeper, Loris Karius. 

This, after Karius was once again criticised by fans, for a mistake that led to a goal in The Reds' 3-1 friendly defeat to Borussia Dortmund this morning.

Casillas urged fans to get off Karius' back, saying the condemnation could take a harmful toll on the player's confidence.

The Liverpool keeper has been under intense scrutiny, since making two costly errors in their Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, Karius has taken to social media to hit back at his critics, saying he feels sorry for those who enjoy seeing others fail.
